Test results after one year

Hi, I recently had a ttg blood test done, I was confirmed by biopsy a year ago , my previous test was over 100, it is now 15.5 , the guideline is 0-16 negative , 16-20 inconclusive  and 20 or above positive. Since going gluten free , I have also gone lactose free, the diet is working , I dont have bloating cramps etc and have gone from 11.4 stone to 11.7 stone, I thought that my results would of been a lot lower, but the dietician says the biggest tumble comes in the first few months , maybe my expectations were to high. When I had the biopsy last year I asked the endescopist where I was on a scale of mild to severe , she said out of ten around 5 to 6 , I was diagnosed at 51. I like to reasd and browse these forums so much good stuff on here , many thanks.

Your tests are in the negative range and that is great!  I don't think anyones ever go down to 0. Looks like you have a good handle on what you need to do to keep yourself safe.

      My question is it possible that Barley is OK > I know wheat gives me stomach pain, rash, and severe diarrhea.

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.
