Hello everyone,

I have been gluten free for 2 years.  Diagnosed in 2020. And since last August I have been experiencing numbness on my face/hard right side and also on my limbs. It comes and goes. Has anyone experienced anything like it? My labs showed last year my antibodies went back to normal on the gluten free diet.  Currently went dairy/eggs free and eating a nutritional dense diet but I am still experiencing those symptoms.  Waiting to see a neurologist now. Anyone else with these issues?

Raquel 2021,  Has your Vitamin B-12 been checked lately?   Eve the low end of the safe level can be an issue for some of us.  I found that out last Friday.

Thank you. Just got it checked and it was 220 . Dr says that is still normal but I think is on the low end.

Thank you. Yes I have read about it. I hear in Europe 500 to 1300 is optimal range. Here in Canada I guess that's different.

      Waiting on biopsy after positive bloodwork, but also not really believing this is real

      By Alibu · Posted

      I was tested back in 2017 and my TTG-IGA was mildly elevated (an 11 with reference range <4) but my EMA was negative and biopsy was negative. Fast forward to 2 weeks ago where I was like y'know what, I still have so many symptoms and I'm always so sick, I should repeat this, thinking it was not going to be positive.  I also found out through 23 and me that I do have the HLA-DQ2.5 gene so I thought it would be good to repeat given my ongoing symptoms. Well my blood work came back with a ttg-iga level of 152.6 with a reference range of <15 and my EMA was positive and EMA titer was 1:10 with reference range of <1:5. I guess I'm nervous that I'm going to do the...

      Helping child go strict gluten-free and concerns about growth/height

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.
