I have had TWO Endoscopies with bisopys, and TWO rounds fo the blood test, no sign of celiac disease. So after 2 weeks of gluten-free'ing I had some gluten on Sunday. Couple little cake thingys at a chuch function, that was around 1130am or so. Felt fine rst of day, and then at dinner for some reason that I do not know remember (brain fog prbly LOL) I order a burger and did not tell them to keep the bun. Prbly been 4 years since i had a bun on my burgers, maybe once or twice in that period but I realy like burgers better with out the bun. That was around 6 or 630pm. Felt fine after that too... well for a while. Then at around 3am I woke up with a very bad stomache ache. Then around 445 when I get up and do my morning bible reading I could not focus at all, and had tons of gas/etc and stomache still hurting (even now at 7am).

BAH!!! :angry:

I guess that means either the four tests missed celiac disease, or it somehing thats normaly found with gluten like Dairy, eggs, etc. BAH. Why cant this be easy????? Maybe that test kit I ordered from Great Plains Labs will have a clue in it, I just hope I can get my doc to sign off on it so that its covered.

I have had the skin prick test for jsut about every food I eat and non of them should any re-action at all.

BAH!!! :angry::(

Sorry to hear you're feeling crummy. :( I bet it's the gluten though. With your son's celiac it just seems so likely.

I just recently read a post by a lady on a Dutch celiac board where she'd had three rounds of tests (blood&endo), and only the last one detected damage. It had just not progressed far enough before then to be detectable. Kudos to her and her doctors to keep testing I must say. Although personally, I would have gone gluten-free long before that (as I did, lol).

hang in there,

Vincent, Sorry to hear you're not feeling great.

So your tests are negative for celiac disease, however, you may have gluten intolerance without any detectable damage. I still think you should remain gluten free.

I had a mini cheesecake when I was intending to have a biopsy and I was fine BUT then I had 2 slices of bread and thought I was going to die. Took 10 days to fully recover. Specialist says the absolute worst thing thing we gluten sensitive can eat is bread.

I have read a lot of your posts and it definitely sounds like you have a problem with gluten, especially with your son's history. He got it from somewhere!

My 2 cents worth. Hope you feel better soon!

Hi, Vincent--So sorry that your not feeling well. Bummer, I know. I have to say that your symptoms do sound like they're gluten related. And the family connection with your son. Maybe the new tests will uncover something--I hope so! At this point, I would listen to what your body is telling you (since the tests won't tell). I wish I had more to offer :)

Sorry to hear you have been feeling bad...since you know you have a problem with it and see even some improvement on the diet what is keeping you from following it? You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by it. Even if it's just an intolerance and not celiac you definitely seem to have an issue...I hope you get feeling better here soon :)

Well if it was just me, probably would. But I ultimatly need to know if theres somthing else, for my son's sake. He seems to have inherited most of my umm "issues" so if theres some other intolernce here, I want to know to watch him for it too.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
