ok so im doing fine gluten free but i got some gluten free cereal then realized that i cant have milk because i am slightly lactose and since i am still healing i am incredibably lactose. I have a feeling i may be allergic to soy since whenever i use a product with soy in it i get sick almost 10 minutes afterwards. Is there any other options that dont use soy and that are a good idea??

you could get lactose free milk, or take lactaid (the lactase enzyme that will digest the milk sugar that your body can't digest on its own). or you could try rice milk, almost milk, or a nut milk. vance's dari-free is an option as well, based on potatoes, but you would have to mail order it.

Vance's is by far the best tasting and one of the cheapest per quart. IMO at least ;)

I use Pacific Plain Rice Milk for cereal and I can't tell the difference.

I use Vance's also, and agree it is the best tasting that I have tried. Good texture, too--not too thin. The only drawback for me is that I have to order by mail--no stores anywhere near me carry it. I also use it dry as a creamer in my tea.

We use rice milk for things like cereal. It also works just fine for cooking and baking.

Everyone tastes are dif, I found the Pacfic Rice milk way to sweet for ceral/etc.

For cooking/baking I foudn subbing fruit juice for milk, 1 for 1, works extremly well.

      Thanks for the reply.

      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.
