Is it worrying that I still don’t feel any better after being gluten free for nearly 7 months. Still have constant belly pain everyday and brain fog. Worrying I will have refractory coeliac I’m only 22 and had total villous atrophy

What is your definition of being gluten free?  Do you eat out?  Eat processed foods?  Does anyone else prepare your food?  Do you live with gluten eaters?  Do you have safe kitchen practices?  

Ennis and I addressed this in a previous post.  We could really use some input from you.  As it stands now, we can only guess that you are not diet compliant.  

Have you been back to the doctors for follow-up testing?  Have you seen a dietician?  

I really doubt you have refractory.  It is so rare!  But only your doctor can verify this.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.
