Hi everyone,

I've been kind of bummed out this week because it's been soooo rough. I had another ER visit last Sun. for abdominal pain (5 of those in the last few months). The pain is better at times but sometimes even the vicodin I take for it doesn't help. Plus I had to take my 10 year old daughter to the Children's hospital for more tests. I should get those back in a week or so and I'll know whether she has the gene and how she is now. I know a lot of you go through the same thing and helps to read about it. I did have good news that my levels have improved (I've been gluten free for 2 1/2 months) and when I call my Dr. on Tues. I'll find out by how much.

Anyways, does anyone get really excited when they find something they used to love and thought they'd never be able to have again? This all might sound stupid but I was at Walmart today. I didn't realize how well they label some things. I used to love spice drops (I'm not a big candy eater) and right there the Great Value brand says GLUTEN FREE right on it. I definitely picked them up and some candy corn too that was labeled. So they aren't the healthiest thing. It's more like comfort food. Even my other daughter was excited for me.

Sorry to ramble on.

Diane

P.S. Does anyone use gluten free all purpose flour? Is it worth getting?

      Confused about HLA-DQ Celiac gene test result

      If you have been on a gluten-free diet for four years, all of the testing with the exception of the HLA one, was a waste of time. Not sure why your physician would have even considered it. But that doesn't explain your ongoing celiac-like symptoms. It's beginning to look like they are being caused by some other medical issues unrelated to a gluten disorder...

      Confused about HLA-DQ Celiac gene test result

      Thanks for the insight! It has been a whirlwind...very overwhelming and frustrating at times. But what you are saying makes sense to me. I have been on a Gluten Free diet for 4 years now Its been suggested to me to get a second opinion

      Sorry for rambling on so much. It was not clear to me from you first post that, although you have known for several years that gluten had been causing you distress, that you had already eliminated it from your diet.

      Because a close friend has had Celiac for years - I've eliminated gluten after the ER said all I had was a huge pocket of gas several years ago. The gluten will be my 4th autoimmune disease. Thanks so much for all your input!!!
