Is there any specific test they can do for a casein intolerance? We think I might have problems with casein but I don't know for sure. Thanks!

Bethani,

I just gave this link to a friend yesterday for testing for celiac. They also test for yeast, casin, eggs, and some other things. I haven't used them before, but what they do seems to make sense. I plan on using them in the future to get my son and daughter tested. The list of testimonials on the site is pretty impressive. Maybe someone here has tried them and can tell you more.

Good luck.

I have tested myself and 2 daughters for gluten intolerance with Enterolab. One daughter was also tested for casein intolerance and I've now ordered the casein intolerance test for the other daughter and myself.

I didn't have any symptoms for gluten intolerance but after getting the test results, I can say it has made a big difference to me in the way I feel. I'm suspicious that I have the casein intolerance but want to know for sure so I know if I need to be strict.

I feel like the tests are worth it.

Yes, you can have food intolerance testing done. There are several labs that do this. I used Great Plains. They will partially bill the cost to some insurances, ie. Anthem. Open Original Shared Link

I found I can't have goat products either. I've got an intolerance to casein. :(

My understanding is that some people can tolerate them, others can't. I haven't tried goat milk yet.

      Still unsure.....

      By badastronaut · Posted

      So after  a long time in which I got my zinc and folic acid levels back on track I will now start with taking Thiamine to see if that does anything. According to my blood levels I'm not low on Thiamine but, if I understand correctly, blood works are not the best way to find out if there is a Thiamine shortage. How much Thiamine should I take to start with? 100 mg?

      Curious if I should quit my job

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm in the "never reveal your plans to the enemy" camp on this one--it's none of their business if you're looking for another job, so I would leave that out of any conversation. Also, retaliation can be common with some employers, especially if you bring up the ADA and claim a disability because of celiac disease. I was a corporate paralegal for 5 years and handled employment claims against some major USA companies, and I've seen it all--even by huge companies that contract with the government and should know better. I say keep your cards close to your vest, wear an N95 mask if you handle wheat flour, and quietly look for another job if you feel you can't continue there.  Oh, and when I say "enemy," I mean that unscrupulous managers may quickly become your enemy, even if the law is on your side, and they could find trivial reasons to give you the 3 quick warnings that may be necessary to fire you. Very few lawyers would take such a case on a contingency basis, so unless you have a stockpile of money, you'd have no recourse.

      @ohmichael doesn't have an official diagnosis of celiac disease yet. That would need to happen if he were to pursue a disability claim.

      This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. According to this article your two positive DGP-IgA tests mean:

      Help needed

      This is so very interesting I love all this information, knowledge is so very important for us to help ourselves heal, I have been so wrapped up with my dogs nutrition after vets told me she needed a operation, which turns out I can help with this for her  myself also , I may have been missing the tap on the shoulder to say integration into your own health is needed here too , although I have been aware I must admit myself has been on the back burner at times , I also have a granddaughter with nut allergy I researched for that , this is now screaming at me to turn inward to myself also , and deal with my invisible struggles I also am carrying, thankyou for all the information keep it coming , my ears and eyes are fully open 🙏
