The link won't work for me. :( Anyone else having problems?

Sorry it's not working . If you google the article in the first post you should be able to bring it up.  It's from 3 of the leading Celiac Meds Docs so really worth a look.

I got the link fine but if I recall correctly I am a member of Medscape - I believe I just plain signed up for it - I know there isn't any fee for anything I sign up for otherwise I think very long and very hard whether it's going to be worth my money or not.

I didn't have to pay to just bring it up on google though. Probably easier than signing up.

There's a gluten sniffing dog?????????????  I WANT ONE!  That way, as a service dog, I could take the pup into a restaurant and not be kicked out. ;) I have always marveled how in Europe, you see some dogs in cafes, sitting besides their owners while they eat. But having a dog to sniff out gluten is just so cool!

Nah.......there are no gluten sniffing dogs....yet!  With 20% of children who are dietary compliant but are not healed (villi) after one year (per the subject article), I think dogs could be a solution.

I know there are dogs for other food related things but I haven't heard of one for gluten yet.  

We'd still be in the weeds though with allergies, celiac and animal allergies :lol:

I read about a gluten sniffing dog probably 2 years ago so I Googled it. Apparently there are several now as well as those who say they can train them. Read on my friends:

As long as they don't have gluten sniffing cats, I am good.  I am allergic to cats but not dogs. And yes.......I have a cat!  Isn't that always the way?  ;)

I have a plan when I retire to finally have another dog.  If he/she could sniff out gluten, what a bonus that would be!  Thank you for the link!

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.  
    • Colleen H
      Yes this is very frustrating for me ... not sure what to think.  Feels like I'm having reactions to a lot of things  Now applesauce?? I don't understand 😞 
    • Colleen H
      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you 
    • Colleen H
      Anyone else get pins and needles. ??? Burning feeling ? Heat makes it so much worse 😔  Winter is here.  I had to lower my thermostat because I couldn't take that hot air feeling 😔  Hopefully it goes away soon

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".
