Anyone taking Armour?  Are you having Celiac reactions??  It says its gluten free, on the gluten free drugs, but the articles on it says no.

What’s articles are you referencing?  Armour Thyroid does not contain gluten.   I have taken it for over 20 years and my small intestine has healed.  
 

You could have an intolerance to any of the inactive ingredients.  But it should not be a reaction causing celiac disease to flare.

I used to take Armour, and I was fine.  Then they switched me to Naturethroid, and it was recalled lately.  So they put me back on Armour, and I had a reaction.  I took Armour for 10 years!!  Read an article, and it said it wasn't gluten-free.  But thanks.

What article?  Please cite it (provide a link).  
 

Porcine thyroid products are being recalled lately due to raw material supply issues.  This has pretty much impact all non-synthetic thyroid medications.  Thank you pandemic!   If you are having a celiac disease reaction, report it to the FDA.  It could be that you are reacting to the inactive ingredients that may have changed.

This is a good site to search the ingredients used in drugs:

It looks like Allergan's version is gluten-free:

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
