Mine took over a week to arrive. The web site says it is sent a faster way, but they don't do it that way anymore. You can always email them and they can track the package.

Mine was sent out the day after I ordered and I had it within 3 days. Mailman left it on my porch. They received it back one week after I ordered it. And the results took exactly 2 weeks to get. This was just in Feb. If you go to their site you can monitor this under, I believe, check order status.

PS good luck

Here are my results. Antigliadin IgA 20 Antitissue Transglutaminase IgA 14 Anitcasein IgA antibody 13

Gene test: HLA DQ 3 (subtype 8) and HLA DQ 3 (subtype 7).

I'm still wrestling with telling my doctor. He's happy with the IBS and gastritis dx he gave me back in March, along with cymbalta, nexium, Iron, MOM (every night since June) and benefiber twice a day [this is the only way I go to the bathroom] Synthroid and B12 inj monthly - he said I may only feel 65% better, ever. I mean he was actually happy about this. Big ole smile on his face at Dec appt. I think all those meds are just masking symptoms, as I don't feel good and won't accept his 65% answer. Anyway, I have a follow up appt at the end of March, and don't know what to do. Since I have the celiac gene I feel this is my problem. I may just go gluten free/casein free on my own. I've been studying up on how to do this and plan to starting this week.

As for surprises...Nothing to do with the disease, but when I read in several places that the DQ8 is from the southern Europe/Mediteranean region I was thoroughly surprised. Goes to show we're all a little bit of everything I guess.

HI SUZANNE

YOU MIGHT WANT TO CK THE BENEFIBER TO MAKE SURE IT IS gluten-free.

I THINK I REMBEBER THAT THERE WAS A POST ON HERE THAT THEY RECENTLY ADDED GLUTEN TO IT.

I HAVE A OLD BOTTLE OF THE POWER THAT IS OK

IT MIGHT BE FINE, BUT I'D CALL AND CK. I DO BEFIEVE THAT THE CAPSELS DO HAVE GLUTEN.

GOOD LUCK

JUDY

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.
