I've Decided What To Do..

Thanks to the poster who suggested this. I think it's what I want to do and I'm willing to

pay out of pocket to have it done. The only question I have is, where do I go to do it?

I'd appreciate suggestions from folks who know or have had this done. Also, does anyone

know if you should just go on eating whatever, until you have the panel.

Thanks, Jerry

I got mine done at my naturopath's office. It's just a blood test that they send to a lab. A few "regular" doctors do the testing too, but probably not in Kaiser. See if Kaiser will refer you to a naturopath (some HMO's will do this) to start. If not, call around and see who in your area does it.

Keep eating "normally" until the test.

I discovered years after doing this testing that it's controversial. It was extremely accurate in my case though, and I think it's a great place to start. Apparently there's some room for false positives, but those are better than false negatives IMHO.

I plan on doing one through Lame Advertisement (remove the spaces and google). I called and talked to both York/Optimum Health and Lame Advertisement and was far more impressed with what A LCAT had to say and their time back and everything. Seemed like a much better test.

I'm ordering it next week. :)

I used Immunolabs. Their website will give you numbers to call to find someone who does it locally. I think its immunolabs.com They were extremely accurate for me.

Thats the one I got in the first place that showed me gluten problems. VERY impressed with them.

      What are your daily meals? Guilty pleasure snacks? Protein bars? I feel when looking for gluten free foods they are filled with sugar cholesterol. Looking for healthy gluten-free protein bars. Something to fill since sometimes I feel like not to eat anything. Especially if on vacation and unsure of cross contamination I figure go with a salad and protein bar to fill and play it safe.

      Unfortunately, there is presently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. NCGS is thought to be much more common than celiac disease. We know that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder but the mechanism of NCGS is less clear. Both call for an elimination of gluten from the diet.

      Thanks for your reply Trents…most appreciated.  I am unfamiliar with celiac labs terminology so I wanted to know if the presence of HLA variants (DA:101, DA:105, DQB1:0301 and DQB1:0501) that the labs detected had any merit in predisposing one to be more sensitive to gluten/carbs than the general population?  Also,  I found what you said about NCGS very interesting and I appreciate you mentioning that.  I’ve worked hard to research and advocate for myself with my Hematologist and now with a new GI, since my bowel surgery and to maintain my Vitamin B12 health concurrent with keeping my levels of Iron in the optimal range. I’ve been tested for SIBO (do not have it), biopsy showed negative for HPylori, and have had Fecal studies done (nothing showed up) and I understand how a loss of a large amount of bowel could be highly impacting re: SIBO, malabsorption and motility issues. So I’ve managed pretty well diet and elimination-wise until just recently. That said, this new problem with extreme bloating, distention and upper girth, NAFLD just occured over the last 4 months so it is new for me and I thought celiac might be a possible issue. I’ll probably just continue on in this less gluten/carbs seem to be better for me and see how reintroducing certain foods go.  Thanks again.

      Thanks bumped it up and now take all 3 vitamins 2 capsules each with the super b complex at breakfast. I will give it some time to see if I notice a difference. I am going to track my eating daily diary on a myfitness pal app to see if the "claimed" gluten free foods bother me or not.

      Please can anyone help. I was diagnosed on 23rd December and I am trying my best to get my head around all the things to look out for. I have read that yeast extract is not to be eaten by coeliacs. Why? And is this all yeast extract. Or is this information wrong. Thanks.
