What's Your Blood Type?

I am A+, as is my ex-husband... so imagine my surprise when my middle daughter, who is also a celiac, told me she is O+?

Two A+'s don't necessarily add up to all A+ kids.

that confused me, until I found this.... Open Original Shared Link

which when you scroll down and put A for both parents then the thing says you can get A, or O

so, I believe you LOL (not that I didn't but since hubby and I are both O it was explained that our kids had to be, but I guess that's different for different blood types and didn't know until today. Our kids could have been O+ or O- but ended up + which is kinda cool in some ways and kinda uncool in others)

What I find interesting is that,

I am A-negative and my husband is O-negative. I just had a baby in Dec. and she is A+

...Two negatives made a positive.... I guess anything is possible!

I had to get two shots after birth because a lot of my baby's blood entered into my blood.

I am A- negative. I know most of the world is positive (RH factor).

Just curious to see how many others that are celiacs are a negative RH factor.

A-negative also.

:rolleyes: barrilla, this is a bit differnt than your question but I read somewhere that most celiacs are O's.

with adding myself as O blood type the posts add up to 11 0's and 6 A's and B's, so this is around 1/2. Have a good day all, evie

O Positive .Lots of A and O here.

I am B+.

The most common blood type is O, followed by A, B then AB. Positive being more common than Neg.

So if most celiacs are O, its probably only because O is the most common blood type.

Hi Ladies,

I have been wheat/Gluten/corn/soy/dairy free since 2/22/06, due to being so ill for

several months. Including a B12 deficiency. Diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 95' when

they couldn't prove that I had the Ankylosing Spondylitis I had been being treated for

since the age of 14! Ok, here is the thing. I went off all this stuff after seeing a

nutritionist who counsels on Blood Type Diets, helping people with chronic diseases and to

lose weight, also. I am an A+, 40 yo, and just had 1st pregnancy 2yr ago. Everything

got much worse after that event. I wonder if I have had it all along and it was triggered

by the pregnancy. I nursed for 20 months and it got much worse when I stopped.

Today, I had oatmeal and about 90 mins later thought I was dying. That I was supposed to

be able to have?! So, looking for a "what should I do next" Tests? Advice? Where does

Gluten hide?

Thanks in advance to all,

Trish in Bullville, NY

Two A+'s don't necessarily add up to all A+ kids.

YeP.. because "A" is often AO and "B" is often BO so you realy have...(stetching my memory back to bilogy class...)

AA (called A)

AB (Called AB)

AO (Called A)

BO (Called B )

BB (called B )

OO (Called O)

So a father with AO and mother with AO could easily have a child with O

BTW I am O+ , Red Cross constantly after me to donate! :)

I just started thinking....I've heard of diets based on your blood type? Does anyone know anything about this? I'm wondering if the things we're allergic or intolerant to could be similar for other people with the same blood type???? Your thought anyone???

misskerry Newbie

I am O+, but my parents and both of my sisters are all A+.

I don't know my blood type. I've always wanted to find out though.

If I did the diet for my blood type it would kill me. My type has wheat as a main grain.

cathy321 Newbie

I'm O negative.

mamaw Community Regular

O neg for me. this blood type diet is mainly proteins such as meat. I believe o has been around since the beginning of time so we are meat eaters..... That's about the only thing that seems correct within my body---no grains...everything else doesn't ever add up for me!!!!!

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—
    • lalan45
      You’re not crazy—some people have severe neurological and physical reactions to gluten, not just digestive issues. While testing can be tricky without eating gluten, documenting symptoms and seeing a specialist familiar with atypical celiac or gluten-related disorders can help. Your reactions are real, and it’s valid to be cautious.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you
