      The comments requested are very limited in scope, and I don't think this shotgun approach would be helpful, but that is just my 2 cents, for what it's worth.

      Hi all: Scott, I am glad you listed all your supplements, etc, many new to Celiac will be floundering as I was when diagnosed in 1979.  After much trial and error, the following supplements are now a daily MUST HAVE for me.  We have to keep in mind, too much can be just as damaging as too little. Further, I have found that 'brands' of supplements vary hugely! I tend to go with the newer ones as I find they 'digest' better, and digestion is HUGE with many of us. In hopes my input may help someone through the jungle of supplements:  I buy from Amazon. I take Naka Cal/Mag Marine Algae with Vit D.  Explanation here re/ Algae: I do not take anything with fish oil. I can't swallow large capsules so I chew them...a bit 'fishy' tasting but not bad. I was using a top brand but one day it tasted like...rotten, strong, yucky fish taste. I switched to Algae, I also have a 'thing' about farmed fish full of anti-biotics but don't get me started on that...I digress. I take extra D3, Celiacs need this.. I get the one from Sports Research, great company in U.S.A.  I also take B complex from 'Thorne' as well as extra B12 subliminal, another one Celiacs need. I agree with Scott the need for extra B12 for a clear brain. I also take a Multi vitamin with Zinc- Naka brand.  Also, K2 MK7 is a must for Celiac... and finally, I take Omega-3 Algae.  I truly hope this helps someone -  I know the struggle well.  Florence.

      it's not mysterious, it's currently not officially diagnosed as labs are presenting a very complicated case with multiple potential causes- and of course they each have a different treatment.    hmm... well everything you put in your body is interactive with everything else   are you assuming I have an iodine deficiency?  I seriously doubt it but I'll check the iodine content of my nori sometime to see if maybe I'm getting too much... too much is bad too. link doesn't work I've spent hundreds if not thousands of hours crafting a good optimal diet for my particular needs.  Yes definitely thousands of hours. I have enjoyed it immensely and will continue to refine my diet as it suits me and my own physiology.  . My body has decided it will not work properly, either due to an adenoma (benign) or hyperplasia and/or a small kidney defect (that remains to be seen but it's not looking good) and/or we don't yet know......... it does NOT look like it's one single issue, it appears to be at least two different ones not going to give out my full medical history here for ppl to second guess (unless one or more of you have a medical degree and specialize in gastroenterology, nephrology, endocrinology, rheumatology etc) I got permission to stop the drug I was on (I was going to stop it without "permission") so in the meantime I have to walk a VERY VERY fine line with vit D and calcium intake to avoid losing any more BMD than I already have. while I wait til the next round of testing I MAY be able to tolerate a gluten challenge that doesn't have the addition of a confounding variable (the drug I just stopped) it was impossible to tell what symptoms were from the gluten challenge and which were from the drug

      Hello @knitty kitty, Thanks for your detailed reply.  I have been eating bananas daily since my diagnosis.  The only time I have noticed a reaction is when eating a banana without washing my hands first.  I just had another banana this morning and am feeling fine.  I will eat another one for lunch, since the 4 remaining are getting quite ripe.  Traditionally speaking, I have never had a problem with latex.  Granted I am freshly diagnosed with Celiac.  With that said, I have come to learn it impacts everyone differently.  For instance my vitamin levels are all in the normal range other than D.  From what I have read (here and elsewhere), that is somewhat rare. I already purchased 64oz of Everyone by EO hand lotion that is labeled gluten-free.  It arrived yesterday afternoon via Amazon.  I started using it last night and again this morning.  I haven't formed a final opinion on it, but initial thoughts are good.  I will be giving away the 3 brand new bottles of Lubriderm I had previously purchased (from Costco) some time last year. Thank you again and have a wonderful day ahead.
