Something strange is my best description at the moment, that feels eerily familiar in a not fun way. This morning, I started to feel really out of it, eg extremely tired falling asleep on the sofa with aching joints and heavy feeling arms and legs. Following fun moments of where is my brains today as in misplacing items I am holding while turning my house upside down to find it and other not fun moments. I am trying to figure out what could I have consumed that would gluten me but I'm at a loss. I'd blame the flu which is been going around my town big time , cept I honestly can't say if that's it. Could you still get glutened from a plastic fork if it was washed? I want to say no, but right now that's my only lead as I had the flu already. I'm really searching thru my logs and things and nothing else seems to make sense.

If it were the flu you would feel like you got hit by a truck.  You would also have a high fever, 103 or so.  One of my friends posted that her eyes even hurt.  Trust me, if you had the flu, you would know!!

 

Highly unlikely you got glutened from a plastic fork that had been washed.  Hard to speculate without seeing your food logs.  Anything newish that you have eaten?  Any Christmas baking you have done?

      Thank you for explaining! This makes sense.

      Wheat Straw Dishes

      By SophiesMom · Posted

      I have been looking for new dishes. I was surprised to find dishes made of wheat straw. Are these safe for us? I'm very careful to avoid products that may contain gluten. I never thought I might have to check for wheat in dishes.

      IgA levels - What do they mean?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Hope07! The reference range would refer to what is considered normal in healthy people. So, 7 or less would mean there is no indication of "active" celiac disease. Apparently, you are doing very will in avoiding gluten. The "Tissue Transglutaminase IGA" is the centerpiece antibody test that clinicians run when checking for celiac disease. My only reservation would be that whenever the TTG-IGA test is run, a "total IGA" test should also be run to check for IGA deficiency. When IGA deficiency is present, other IGA tests, such as the TTG-IGA can be artificially low and result in false positives. In the absence of any symptoms indicating your celiac disease is not under control, however, I would take the result you posted at face value.

      Cruise and GliadinX

      By StevieP. · Posted

      Going on a cruise next week and I’m a celiac. Bought a bottle of GliandinX. Should I just take two tablets per day as a precaution? Never tried this before!! Any help is appreciated!!

      IgA levels - What do they mean?

      By Hope07 · Posted

      Hola! Not sure if I’m asking this in the right place so apologies if not! I just had a full blood count as part of my first check up after being diagnosed with celiac disease 7 years ago!! With Covid lockdowns then living in Spain for 3 years and now back in the UK, I kept getting missed in the system but finally I’ve had a check up! Does anyone know what this means?  Tissu transglutaminase IgA lev:  0.30 U/ml Reference range:  Below 7 Thank you!
