Enterolab Results Are In: Ncgs

Hi Everyone!

I'm having a great response to my gluten-free diet and of course my Enterolab results concur. I put the results in my signature.

I hadn't expected the casein intolerance, so as of today I'm casein-free as well. I don't feel 100% well yet, but I feel much better than before I started this journey. Maybe I'll improve faster without the casein? We shall see.

Thank you to everyone who posts in the pre-diagnosis part of this site... I read all the questions and answers with great interest these past few weeks. I'm convinced that I've made a healthy positive decision for me, even if I ignored the traditional route for celiac diagnosis.

I've decided to tell "regular" people that I have celiac instead of NCGS. NCGS is too much of a mouthful to say and celiac itself is hard enough to explain... so far everyone in my life has been very supportive. I hope it stays that way.

Onward and upward!

I'm glad you got some answers and that the diet has helped.

I'll be curious to see if casein free helps with other things that haven't cleared up. :)

It's also nice that you've got support.

And you never know in the years to come if they will say that DQ3 gene is also an indicator of celiac because right now they only recognise DQ2 and 8. I do the same thing, tell others my son is celiac. You know the diet is the same either way. Best wishes, it's great to be supported.

      Heat intolerant... Yikes

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".
