Dx Zero, Life 100

I wish I'd read this forum before spending $150 out of pocket for a Food Allergy blood panel (QuesTest). The results were negative for wheat, the scratch test I took 3 years ago was negative for wheat. I'm one of 38 million working Americans without health insurance so I can't afford more doctors visits right now.

Well, I guess that's just a comment I wanted to make, no question. I know I'm not imagining my reaction to wheat/gluten, I can't afford to play doctor-merry-go-round. I'm certainly not willing to go off my gluten-free diet for a while in the hopes of developing measurable symptoms. So that's where I live now; gluten sensitive by life experience rather than lab measurements.

I never even knew there were any tests available for celiac or gluten sensitivity until after I gave the crap up. The change in my health and life in general was so dramatic that there was no question as to what the problem was.

      In the USA only wheat-based breads are fortified with certain vitamins, but not gluten-free breads, thus we typically encourage celiacs to take multivitamin supplements.

      For people who can tolerate oats, Marks and Spencers sell a nice loaf:   https://www.marksandspencer.com/food/made-without-wheat-gluten-free-oaty-loaf/p/fdp60140058

      Not much use to Canadians but if any British Lindt lovers are looking at this, give Marks & Spencer's Swiss Truffles a try - no barley but same taste.  I'm pretty sure that in a blind tasting a coeliac would not know the difference - but then again, if you want to put this to the test, get  a non-Coeliac to try this!  I don't want anyone here to get glutened! https://www.marksandspencer.com/food/swiss-milk-chocolate-truffles/p/fdp21056736

      I'm based in the UK and haven't tried that bread but in the past have got on quite well with Genius. Mostly I tend to eat bread with added seeds just because I find it more interesting.   It is good to speak to another UK coeliac though as I am absolutely sure that up until recently a lot of the bread I was eating had added vitamins - but when I was in Tesco's today I couldn't find a brand that did.  Am I imagining this?
