Looks negative? What did the doctor say?

Yep, negative, but you just had the screening test which is good, but does not catch all celiacs (like me ?).  Curious as to what your doctor will tell you.  You can request the rest of the celiac panel to be sure.

I tested negative as well, but several months later broke out in what has been diagnosed (pending skin biopsy),  as dermatitis herpetiformis,  which is a manifestation of celiac. The bloodwork is helpful in a diagnosis but a negative result is not definitive.

Thank you all for replying. I have not heard from my doctor yet. They are very slow at responding to things. I took a pregnancy test and it took them 2 weeks to tell me the results... But I'm not sure if I can get other tests done because I am on Medicaid managed care with MVP Option. There are other tests they can do??

Thank you for the information. But I don't have DH. I have another skin issue that I'm not even sure what it's from. I've had it on and off all my life. I'll post a pic.

Here's a pic of the skin condition. I have it on my inner elbows, and on the sides between my rolls, lol. I have noticed that it would go away in the winter and come back whenever it gets hot and especially humid.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
