I had my follow up with my GI today. I went gluten free on November 8. My TTG-iga was >100 when I was diagnosed. I had the labs re-run last week and my number is 12!!!!!

I was ecstatic. I even grabbed my doctor! 

 

I just wanted to share with you all. You know how bad my anxiety is and I've been dreading this - panicking that I'm not improving. I am so happy to be wrong :)

Thanks everyone! My doctor said that's a pretty significant change. I didn't know what to expect. Would you all agree with him?

If you put the right effort into recovery, you will reap the rewards.  My tTg was also pegged well past 100 and I waited for 1 year to be retested.  When I did, it was 3. I was very strict and still am with the diet.  What it shows is that you understand the diet well and are doing a fabulous job with recovery!  Congratulations!

Very significant!  It means you must be a fast learner and willing to get well.  It is so hard to learn new behaviors -- especially dietary ones.  My PCP has two other celiac patients who do not follow the gluten free diet.  It is their choice, but I choose to strive for wellness!

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?
