Hla-Dq2 & Hla-Dq8 Blood Tests Positive For Celiac Is This Definative?

You have celiac. You have the diagnoses of two very good doctors. You don't need any more proof. If you can learn to accept that, everyone else can learn to too. Now you need to read and re-read the Newbie 101 thread and get good at the diet so no more accidents happen.

And pretty soon you will start feeling much better. :)

I agree with Bartful. Don't even bother to explain all the dx's & mis dx's to people -- just tell them you have been dx'd celiac by 2 separate doctors & that's the end of that. 

Now on to a new life for you & it will be much improved. It does take time to heal so be patient.

Yes, I agree, go gluten free. Especially because the rash went away

      To kiss or not to kiss: Can gluten pass through a smooch?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I thought I'd share this article about recent findings that not enough gluten is transmitted during kissing to be concerned about: https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1082120  What do you think?

      2 months in... struggling with symptoms

      By aperlo34 · Posted

      @OlafAndvarafors hi! I’m feeling a lot better. Twitching has gotten better…I never really found an explanation for the twitching other than anxiety and/or some sort of deficiency (b12/iron/magnesium/D). These are just guesses, though. My levels were always “low-normal” and I recently got 2 more iron infusions because my ferritin dropped despite the gluten-free diet.    as for the other symptoms, I definitely am inclined to blame the gluten “detox” period and honestly anxiety around the entire ordeal. It’s a huge thing to deal with mentally, and I didn’t have symptoms that I knew of prior to being diagnosed so it really threw me into a spiral.    I supplement daily, multivitamin, 6000 D, B12 sublingual, B complex, C, omega 3, magnesium.    Be patient and kind with yourself. A lot of these forums, while helpful, point you to every possible horrible diagnosis.

      Hello. How are you feeling? Did you find out the cause? I have the same symptoms, but I'm still going through the diagnostic process for celiac disease.

      Confusion about my son's results

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      I'm confused about these results. We are not seeing the GI doc. He's totally out of our price range. We can just do gluten free like we do for my daughter who was off the charts on all of these. Any thoughts? Maybe we caught it early? He's only 5.  His EMA was negative. That got cut out of the photo.
