I read your query, one of now at least 15 who have, but I don't have any relevant information to post on the topic. I had to read the topic to see what the question was, and once I saw the question, I knew that I did not know anything that would help you. I am sure I am not the only person who reads a lot of posts without responding because I don't have anything useful to contribute to the topic. I do hope that someone who can help reads and responds.

You can't expect less than an hour to pass and have a lot of people resond. Clicking a topic doesn't mean someone has actually read it. It's night time and it will be awhile until you get a lot of answers.

Ditto Peter. If I don't have anything different or of value to add, why should I post?

I don't know. I thought she would repost it in her opening post, but she didn't. There are a lot of new posts each time I come on, so I could very well have just missed it.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is confused by this.

I'm confused, too . . . :huh: Also, if no one has any information with regard to a subject, they're not going to BS you and tell you something that could potentially harm you.

Everything I have read says that you cannot have a false positive bloodwork. You can only have a false negative test. Your doctor who did the blood work is 100% right and you do have Celiac. As far as the biopsy I cannot answer that as I never had the test. My doctor was back in the stone ages and did not think it was necessary. The only reason I can see to have a biopsy after a positive blood test is to see how much damage has been done to the Villi. I wish I had done it for that reason alone. But at the time I had never heard of Celiac and was extremely ill at the time of diagnosis.

      Pepsid alternative

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems crazy to me that even when you call a manufacturer they can't, in this day and age, answer the simple question about what exactly is in their product!!

      Is it common to develop a wheat allergy in addition to Celiac Disease?

      Pepsid alternative

      By milana · Posted

      Thank you very much for your response. Since I got this advice I called Pepsid manufacturer and they could not give a definite answer. Basically,  there is no final testing and they do not guarantee anything. So I went and got farmotidine from Wagmans that was marked gluten-free and also our pediatrician gave us a prescription for farmotidine that was also gluten-free. So there are other options there thankfully. In case someone will come across of this dilemma.

      Recently qualified Nutritionist looking for support

      By Diana Swales · Posted

      A nutritionist typically focuses on general wellness, lifestyle guidance, and preventative health. A dietician allowed to provide medical nutrition therapy. When i was diagnosed there was zero support and few dieticians and Dr understood celiac disease.  I typically guide a newly diagnosed celiac to a whole food diet to easily transition to the gluten free lifestyle

      gluten-free self diagnosed journey so far as well as what triggers. Eye crying like peeling onions?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your gluten-free journey sounds like a lot of trial and error—especially working in a deli where gluten exposure is constant! The eye-watering issue could be an airborne gluten sensitivity (like flour dust irritating your eyes) or even a mild wheat allergy, since you’re around it daily. A daily antihistamine (like Claritin or Zyrtec) might help if it’s allergy-related, but avoiding airborne gluten as much as possible (masking, washing hands/face often) is key. It’s great you’re tracking triggers—high-fiber foods and certain gluten-free substitutes (like those tortillas or PB pretzels) can sometimes cause similar symptoms due to additives or digestive adjustments. For travel, pack safe snacks (protein bars, nuts) and research gluten-free translation cards for Aruba. On flights, opt for packaged gluten-free meals or eat beforehand. Many gluten-free foods and baking mixes contain xanthan gum or other gums like guar gum. Although they are both gluten-free, they may cause IBS-type issues in some people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity:   You’re doing all the right prep—trust your research and enjoy your trips!
