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

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
