Hi all.

 

Just want to know if there are anyone who just diagnosed with HLA DQB1*0201, without DQA1*0501 and celiacs. 

 

Thanks.

Yes, you can have one copy of the DQ2 gene (referred to as heterozygous) and get Celiac disease.  That gene is not one where you have to have two copies for it to present itself, so having one means Celiac can be a possibility.  Of course, having the gene alone does not mean you have Celiac disease, you do need to get other testing done to see if Celiac disease is active.

Yes, there are people with this genetic type that have celiac disease.  Go to the main page of the forum and search "one copy of dq2" and there will be many threads to read through that may give you the information you need.

I read a lot but I have some questions:

 

My lab report only this: 

 

DQA1*0501: negative

DQB1*0201: positive

DQB1*0302: negative

 

Here I read in so many post speak about DQ1, DQ3, DQ4, DQ5, DQ6, etc. 

 

I think my lab tested only this 3 combination for research of celiacs predisposition (DQ2 / DQ8).

 

I'd like to go in another laboratory and done other more accurate analysis. 

 

Maybe I have other positive gene and I don't know.

 

I don't know what gene I should test, what do you think ?

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By cristiana · Posted

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Flash1970 · Posted

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.
