I was just wondering how common other food allergies/intolerances are among other Celiacs.

Thanks for any replies!

I didn't vote, but I have suspicions on corn, and am uncertain about dairy.

When I do the test from York Allergy I'll let you know. Waiting for reimbursement to my Enterolabs test so that I can afford it. ;)

Hello, Kalo. Do you feel that the York company is the best one for the IGG Elisa testing? There are so many of them out there that offer this, but I have never been able to determine which one is best. I believe I remember reading one time that one of the labs had a far better history than all others, but the article I had read never mentioned which one. In your opinion, is York the best?

Does anyone else know anything about the Lame Advertisement company and/or the type of test they perform? Does anyone recommend any other types of tests to be done for those with Celiac? We're pretty new to this. Thanks-

I'm going from the testimonies on this board. I do know that the Elisa food test is good. The neat thing about York Allergy is that you can do it at home. There used to be a link to them on the home page. I don't know if it's still there.

Takes about 4 weeks to get the results (especially during hurricane season as they are in Florida).

We used it. Results indicate on a scale between 1-4 as the level of your sensitivity. My husband is senstive to : corn, cow's milk, soy, cashew, almond, yeast, wheat, egg yolk, lentils, hazelnut, and chili pepper.

He's already avoiding vegetables and fruits as they are hard to digest for him. This is becoming like the theatre of the absurd.

I am allergic to all grains that are from the grass family, eggs, poultry, peaches, tree nuts, strawberries, and nectarines. It sometimes makes eating difficult!

I'm allergic to shell fish as well. That appeared suddenly several years ago (after having eaten crab, lobster many times up until then with no problems) but appeared before the gluten problem.

I'm also allergic to bee stings, but I don't eat them :P

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
