Ugh. I hope you feel better quickly.

That happened to me a few weeks ago. It really ticked me off too. We spend years basically having food poisoning every day, then when we figure it out, we still get food poisoning. I think we should be exempt. Mother nature is a real $#*&% sometimes.

It's a real pain (pun not intended) to be so careful about what we eat then to be done in by carelessness of others. AAARRRGGGG Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for the support. What ended up being the worst was trying to convince people that it was not a gluten reaction. If that's the price I have to pay for supportive friends and family that take celiac seriously, well I have it good then.

The same thing happened to me last night! I went to a place in NYC after work. I spoke to the waitress about my Celiac and she spoke to the chef and assured me that the Ceviche did not have gluten. I can tell it did not have gluten since in addition to my gi symptoms I get very bad brain fog and have motor probs after eating gluten and honestly I am not NEARLY this sick after eating gluten. I had the Ceviche at 6:30 last night and I still can't eat. I have been trying to eat this bowl of chicken soup since 2pm. It's so frustrating that I can do everything that I am supposed to do and still wind up so sick.

I got food poisoning last week - from the only place in town that offers sandwiches on gluten-free bread! This is so frustrating! I got really sick - fortunately, it didn't last more than a few hours. We called the place to let them know, and they had gotten another call from someone getting sick - the link between the two of us was avocado. I can't believe I finally found a place to get a sandwich, and now this!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      CT with contrast.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
