I use Liquid Health, and I only use the Mega Energy B-vitamins  and Neurological Support one tbsp each twice a day. Great just to add the liquid to a beverage. They also make a multivitamin and vitamin D. Get them on Vitacost best pricing wait for them to drop the 20% off supplement coupons they do once a month. 
I use Bluebonnet for Vitamin D, Ester C for vitamin C, I use 3 different brands for digestive enzymes. I get my treatments for my UC from BulkSupplements, and I use a few different brands for other supplements on rotation for protein and bodybuilding.

And none of that bothers you you use different brands and you feel healthy? How sensitive are you? If you know I have found out I am super sensitive in every way   way more than my own sister even my mom is dead so we don't know how bad she felt they didn't talk about stuff like that I'm sorry to ask so many questions I'm just having such a hard time with this thank you for your reply

Also what is a UC?

Also what is a UC?

Ulcerative Colitis, it is another Autoimmune disease, but of the large intestine. Causes bloating, bloody stool, distention. Everyone has different triggers to cause it to flare, for me gluten, spices, sugar, carbs, starches. I use Marshmallow Root and Slippery Elm powder to coat and soothe it adjusting dosing.

And no, I am quite sensitive, I have gotten cross-contamination from stupid things like gluten residue from a kitchen knob, handle, or grocery transfer from my hand to a piece of gum or something I eat. And some retarded other things also, tiniest amounts can trigger ataxia for me where I will have motor control issues, numbness, among other things. Pretty much my immune system goes after my intestines, brain, and nervous system in reaction to gluten. So even in trace amounts that might not trigger the extreme gastro pain, I will find out with neurological issues. 

I have gotten CCed from Hemp protein and some other off brands of products a few years ago, but I quickly find out which ones are the bad brands and drop them.
The Liquid Health are gluten-free marked but again best pricing is Vitacost right now, https://www.liquidhealthinc.com/products/

I use Vitanica women's symmetry as my multi.

Since I need additional support for Mg and D 

I use trace minerals Mega Mag (magnesium) 

Vitamin D -D drops or vitamin shoppe liquid vitamin D3 

I use multiple brands as I need to be gluten, corn, and milk free.

Lastly, I make water keifer at home as my probiotic as many probiotics are grown on corn or can contain milk which both upset my immune system.

Good luck

Edit: After your post-I checked into Vitanica florasymmetry  there are no milk derivatives so I ordered some. I'll have to see how it goes to help support my water keifer.

I like the vita fusion gummies. I’ve called them and they said that their vitamins are gluten free and they are made in a gluten free facility.

      Thank you for the welcome and reply. The first test was tissue transglutaminase IGA and it was normal. The second test just simply says IGA and it was 638. You definitely answered my question, it sounds like im negative for celiac since the 1st test was normal, and that another condition has caused the abnormal result of the IGA. That's exactly what I was wondering. Im almost positive I have MS and I've read results are higher like that with early onset. Or it could be IBS. Hopefully the visit with the neurologist will give me even more answers and point to a final diagnosis. I really appreciate you taking the time to reply and for helping. Thank you so much!

      Welcome to the forum, @daniellelawson2011! First, we need to deal with terminology here. When you refer to the "ttg" test I take that to mean the ttg-iga. And when you refer to the "iga" test I take that to mean total iga since the magnitude of the score would suggest that. Total iga is not a test for celiac disease per se. It is run in order to check for iga deficiency. If you are iga deficient, then the ttg-iga and other iga tests that are specific for celiac disease will be abnormally low and this would potentially produce false negatives. You are not iga deficient but, rather, your total iga is abnormally high. This can suggest underlying health conditions, some of them can be serious in nature.  https://labs.selfdecode.com/blog/high-iga/ "High IgA usually points to chronic infections or inflammation, though many disorders can raise its levels. High IgA does not cause symptoms. People show symptoms from their underlying health problem." One thing I might add and that is you must have been eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months prior to the blood draw for antibody testing. Testing while on a gluten free or gluten reduced diet will not yield valid results. Also, here is a primer outlining the various antibody tests that can be ordered to check for celiac disease:

      After struggling with many different symptoms for years with no diagnosis, I decided to do my own research and I stumbled upon an article about celiac disease. I asked my PCP to order a ttg and iga. The results: the iga was high at 638. The ttg was negative. Of course I will discuss with my doctor, but i would like to hear from people that have went through the process of diagnosis to maybe give me some insight on what this means and where to go from here. Also of note, i had a brain mri which showed white lesions which arent typical at 44 years old. I have many MS symptoms. I go to the neurologist on Tuesday, but just curious if anyone knows if there is a correlation between iga and MS. I appreciate any help! Thanks!

      Thankyou so much for your reply I decided to skip the senna has I've already had very loose stools last few days I've cut my portions down on the low fiber diet too and drinking lots of liquid has I just thought it would be wise to listen to myself too I've probably already done wat the senna would of done myself naturally by drinking clear apple juice which if not on the diet I would have to avoid anyways has I don't tolerate many fruit juices so I'm sure I've done the right thing I did try to contact the department on my letter but weirdly enough it was ringing but then after a while saying wrong number 🤷 but again I'm positive I've done the right thing I'm going to take today very lightly too with low portions and more liquids so yes thankyou for that advise I am very nervous but I have had time to think and read other peoples experiences and not all are bad there is some good advise and reassuring information from people who do these all the time so I'm trying my best to be positive so I can at least settle my mind knowing im doing this to help my own health has this year has been a rollercoaster for me cutting out gluten and lactose was a good idea but I still get flare ups and other symptoms so it definitely is worth a check like you said it was the calprotein that prompted the doctor to refer me again thankyou for your reply it's means a lot for someone to take the time to listen and respond and give uplifting advise  especially to me just now has I'm a bundle of nerves inside getting closer to tomorrow prep so thankyou for that 🙏
