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

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

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! :)

AB+ here

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???

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

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!!!!!

      gluten-free stool softener needed for after surgery

      In general with pharmaceutical products cross-contamination is a much lower risk.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      Refractory celiac disease

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.
