Ok so here they are... 

 

So this was for the blood work for the serology and the genetic. Mind you they had me off of gluten for almost a month before doing my blood work. The did a endoscopy and diagnosed me and did blood work and now saw that I do not have it. So I was praying you guys could help me.

The the pathology report:

architecture (Marsh 1, s€e comment).
 
-Negative for dyspepsia or malignancy.
 
COMMENT: Prominent intra-cpithelial lymphocytcs may be non-specific but may also be associated with early onset or previously treated Celiac sprue. It may also be seen in association with gluten sensitivity enteropathy, H. pylori gastrointestinal, NSAIDs therapy, certain autoimmune diseases (e.g. autoimmune enteropathy, autoimmune gastritis, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis) and obesity. Clinical
 
pathologic correlation is recommended with serological studies.
 
B. Duodcnum, Bulb (Biopsy): -Focal increase in intrrepithelirl lJrmphocytcs with preserved vittous architecture (Marsh I, see comment),

So obviously my doctor is a fool and tested my blood with no gluten in my system. My blood works says no and my endoscopy says yes. Not wanting to take more time off of work or go find another doctor to go through all the tests again. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help!!!

Your test results pasted kind of funky characters so I'm not sure I'm reading them right but Marsh 1 is Celiac--especially if you had been off gluten for a month. Your doctor is an idiot by the way :D.

My biopsy results were exactly the same as yours, and my bloodwork was all normal - this was after a year of being gluten free. I was shocked that anything would show up! I went gluten free a year ago after learning I have HLA-Dq 2.5 and HLA-Dq 8. I don't expect to be able to get an accurate diagnosis at this point, but I sure would like to know what's making me feel sick at this point! I didn't have any GI symptoms until well after I gave up gluten - so ironic! I'm now going strict gluten free by separating stuff in my kitchen, buying new cutting boards, etc.

      Sigh. I posted this yesterday based on the Safeway website. I went back again today to their website to double check. On the page where they are selling Vanilla Bean flavor, it has a distinct Certified Gluten Free label. Other flavors on the Safeway website didn't have the gluten-free statement. Today I went into the store. None of the flavors I looked at, including Vanilla Bean, have a Gluten Free statement. Is it safe? Who knows. The ingredients are either safe or nearly safe (some have "natural flavor"). There are warnings about "contains milk and soy" but not about wheat - this implies they are safe, but again, who knows. On the other hand, every flavor I checked of their Slow Churn line of ice creams has wheat as an ingredient. 100% not safe.

      Do keep in mind that many of the newly diagnosed have lactose intolerance.  This is because the villi lining the intestinal tract are damaged, and can no longer make the enzyme lactAse which breaks down the milk sugar lactOse.  When the villi grow back (six months to two years), they can again produce the enzyme lactAse, and lactose intolerance is resolved.  However, some people (both those with and without Celiac Disease) are genetically programmed to stop producing lactase as they age.   Do be aware that many processed foods, including ice cream, use Microbial Transglutaminase, a food additive commonly called "meat glue," used to enhance texture and flavor.  This microbial transglutaminase has the same immunogenicity as tissue transglutaminase which the body produces in response to gluten in people with Celiac Disease.  Tissue Transglutaminase (tTg IgA) is measured to diagnose Celiac Disease in blood tests.  Microbial Transglutaminase acts the same as Tissue Transglutaminase, causing increased intestinal permeability and inflammation.   New findings show that microbial transglutaminase may be able to trigger Celiac Disease and other autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases.   Microbial Transglutaminase is not required to be listed on ingredients labels as it's considered a processing aid, not an ingredient in the U.S.  Microbial Transglutaminase has been GRAS for many years, but that GRAS standing is being questioned more and more as the immunogenicity of microbial transglutaminase is being discovered.

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      probably not your situation @Mimiof2, but allow me to add one more to @trents list of celiac-mimics: "olmesartan-induced sprue-like enteropathy"

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/
