Hi, My name is Luda.

I discovered I was a Celiac Around this time last year, I was 23. I'd been suffering alone until I stumbled on this site!

I was near having a panic attack this morning because the bar BQ sauce i was dipping my chicken in had soy sauce (soy sauce! with wheat!) and I didn't chance on the ingredient list until i was about to throw out the container. Who puts soy sauce in Bar BQ sauce? (watch that be a standard ingredient and I just had no idea)

I've been struggling with hidden gluten for the past entire year. In spite of all the direct food I've avoided I may as well have just done nothing!

I'm so frustrated :(

Anyway, it's wonderful to be able to speak with people who can relate. It's nice to meet you!

Yea. This is a great place. It's kinda like finding your home planet isn't it? :D

Having this message board to search through makes it easy to find out if a product has been verified gluten free. I was lucky enough to find this board before I had my testing done. I don't know how people do this on their own.

I'm glad you found us. Welcome to the board.

Yes, wheat is hidden in so many things. BBQ sauce is one of the many things it is hidden in, soy sauce is a bad one too. There are BBQ sauces without wheat though and I am sure someone will come along and tell you which too try. I can't have tomatoes or I would suggest some for you.

Welcome to the board.

Luda, did you ever try LaChoy? It has no wheat. I also know that there is a wheat free brand sold online in the Gluten Free mall and Miss Robens.

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      Am I nuts?

      One doctor suggested it, but then seemed irritated when I asked follow-up questions. Oh well—

      @GlorietaKaro, your respiratory reactions to gluten make me wonder if there might also be an allergic (anaphylaxis) component at work here.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen.
