Okay, does bread, buns, etc usally have dairy in it? What does one look for when eating out, esply at a drive through kind of places? Ive gotten pretty good at spoting gluten traps, but still very unsure about all this dairy stuff!

Yes, a lot of bread products have dairy in them. I know that Knickiknick and Celiac Specalties make casein free products, probably others too.... back to reading labels! I'd be surprised if you found a mainstream product made with wheat flour that was dairy free, but you never know.

The Gluten Free Pantry makes a dairy free sandwich bread. I've not tried it yet--just ordered some. I also ordered their French Bread/Pizza Crust Mix--does not list any dairy in ingred. I'll let you know how they are as I try them. Would love to know how others who have tried them like them! Whole Foods Gluten Free Bakeshop breads have milk in them--because of that and the tapioca flour, I don't eat them anymore. I find that with dairy, just like for gluten, I have to read the labels. You never know where it will be lurking ;)

Hi VydorScope,

I am new to this message board, but def second Pattis' post. I've been casein intolerant since birth and it can be found lurking in so many foods, meds etc. Not sure about drive thoughs in the USA, because I live in Spain, but most hamburger buns, hot dog rolls, many of the sauces & also possibly the fries can also contain dairy. As for restaurants, you will need to avoid most sauces because so many contain either butter, cream or milk and also desserts.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
