Oh, I'm so happy!!! I tried the Midel oreo-like cookies, and I didn't like them at all. Thought they had a funky aftertaste. I have been craving junk food like mad (guess it's from eating so well the past few months) and I couldn't stop thinking how much I miss Oreo's. I'll have to get some ASAP, thanks!

Some day, SOME DAY, I hope to see a faux-reo (fake Oreo), a pie crust mix, a killer baking mix that everyone on this forum raves about that doesn't have potato. I know that's asking a lot.

We finally got Trader Joes in town (YEAH!!!) and nearly every Gluten Free baked good there had potato in it. I looked at the banana waffles with longing...

So for now I will stick with the Glutano (or Glutino? Who knows) faux-reos and my Manna from Anna bread held firmly in my greedy little hands... for they are all I have.

Okay, so are they egg-free and soy-free too? I know it's too much to hope for, but...

Tell me I'm not the only one here who thinks that the fact chocolate is *not* banned is evidence of God! If chocolate was out of my life, I'd probably say just forget the whole diet and eat myself to death! I will have to try these cookies, been a few weeks since I was at the health food store and I haven't seen them yet. However, I hope Kinnikinnick has improved their packaging again, because the last bags of double chocolate almond cookies I bought were really stale. The bag had a seal on the fold, but the lining wasn't sealed shut on the inside like they used to be. These gluten-free cookies make life bearable for me, I totally had to cry when the cookies tasted like dried out crap.

YUUUUMMMMMMMMYYYYYYY! My K-Toos just came and I ate 4 for breakfast before remembering that I'm the mom and I shouldn't do that. I haven't had anything even resembling an oreo for 10 years, so I am on cloud nine. I can hardly wait to give a couple packages to the little girl at school who has Celiac. (I'm a teacher.) I'm going to wrap them up in Christmas paper and deliver them.

But a side note on Kinnikinnick bread - I ordered 2 loaves of that too, and no offense to all of you who love this company, but the bread isn't good at all. I'll take Ener-G Brown Rice Loaf over this any day.

Well, which bread did you order????? We like the "white sandwich bread". Have you tried the donuts, pizza crust, or bagels. I've got to tell you, the chocolate chip muffins are devine.

I got the "Robin's" brown rice bread. I'm allergic to eggs, soy and dairy, so that eliminated almost all the Kinnikinnick products. I've never liked white bread, so I don't know if I could stomach gluten-free white bread. The K-Too's only have soy lecithin, which I can handle. Believe me, I'm thrilled with these, so the whole order wasn't a total loss.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      That’s really frustrating, I’m sorry you went through that. High fiber can definitely cause sudden stomach issues, especially if your body isn’t used to it yet, but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom journal and introducing new foods one at a time can really help you spot patterns. You’re already doing the right things ...

      Anti-endomysial Antibody (EMA) Testing

      I thought this might be of interest regarding anti-EMA testing. Some labs use donated umbilical cord instead of monkey oesophagus. Some labs just provide a +ve/-ve test result but others provide a grade by testing progressively diluted blood sample. https://www.aesku.com/index.php/ifu-download/1367-ema-instruction-manual-en-1/file Fluorescence-labelled...

      Just diagnosed today

      First, please know that receiving two diagnoses at once, especially one you've never heard of, is undoubtedly overwhelming. You are not alone in this. Your understanding is correct: both celiac disease and Mesenteric Panniculitis (MP) are considered to have autoimmune components. While having both is not extremely common, they can co-occur, as chronic inflammation...

In the meantime, I will carry on has I have been— it’s working! Thanks also for the validation— sometimes I just feel crushed by disbelief. Not enough to make me eat gluten though—

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @GlorietaKaro! As Scott indicated, without formal testing for celiac disease, which would require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten daily for weeks, it would be not be possible to distinguish whether you have celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). Their symptoms overlap. The difference being that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the lining of the small bowel. We actually no more about celiac disease than we do about NCGS, the mechanism of the latter being more difficult to classify. There are specific antibody tests for celiac disease diagnosis and there is also the endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining. Currently, there are no tests to diagnose NCGS. Celiac disease must first ruled out. Researchers are working on developing testing methods to diagnose celiac disease that do not require a "gluten challenge" which is just out of the question for so many because it poses serious, even life-threatening, health risks. But we aren't there yet.

Keeping a simple food/symptom journal and introducing new foods one at a time can really help you spot patterns. You’re already doing the right things with cleaning and separating baking—also watch shared toasters, cutting boards, and labels like “may contain.”

The binding site is extracellular tTG2 bound to fibronectin and collagen. Human or monkey derived endomysium is necessary because tTG2 from other mammals does not provide the right binding epitope. https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26/3/1012

      First, please know that receiving two diagnoses at once, especially one you've never heard of, is undoubtedly overwhelming. You are not alone in this. Your understanding is correct: both celiac disease and Mesenteric Panniculitis (MP) are considered to have autoimmune components. While having both is not extremely common, they can co-occur, as chronic inflammation from one autoimmune condition can sometimes be linked to or trigger other inflammatory responses in the body. MP, which involves inflammation of the fat tissue in the mesentery (the membrane that holds your intestines in place), is often discovered incidentally on scans, exactly as in your case. The fact that your medical team is already planning follow-up with a DEXA scan (to check bone density, common after a celiac diagnosis) and a repeat CT is a very proactive and prudent approach to monitoring your health. Many find that adhering strictly to the gluten-free diet for celiac disease helps manage overall inflammation, which may positively impact MP over time. It's completely normal to feel uncertain right now. Your next steps are to take this one day at a time, focus on the gluten-free diet as your primary treatment for celiac, and use your upcoming appointments to ask all your questions about MP and what the monitoring plan entails. This dual diagnosis is a lot to process, but it is also the starting point for a managed path forward to better health. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
