It takes a bit of time for antibodies to leave the skin. Very tiny amounts of gluten will reactivate them and iodine will also keep the lesions active.  Some need to avoid all iodine in foods. Personally I just needed to drop iodized salt but others will also avoid sea foods, sea weed etc.  Making sure that any shampoos and lotions etc are gluten-free is also a good idea, especially if you have open sores.

Be patient and be really strict and the antibodies will resolve but it does take time.

I am sorry that you were glutened.  I checked the Golden Corral website.  They do say that they can not really accommodate those with allergies.  My advice?  Never eat out at a buffet.  Select only those restaurants that have been reviewed by a celiac (you can use a reliable source like "Find Me Gluten Free"  and read the reviews insuring a celiac wrote it and not some gluten-free weightloss dieter! ).  Eat at a expensive restaurant and talk to the head chef (worth every penny).  Read the restaurants website!  

The last time I was at a buffet, I excused myself to go out to my car and ate my safe food from my cooler.  I was with the Girl Scouts (left plenty of chaperones with these teens).  At buffets you have to worry about employees and patrons cross contaminating the food, not to mention suppliers!

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works
    • trents
      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thank you this really helped.

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.
