Is There Anyone Like Me? (sorry If I'm Redundant)

I, too have been recently diagnosed with celiac. Not very surprising since

I'm allergic to most proteins anyway. I still have to wait 3 more weeks to

meet with a dietitian. Any advice to someone who is allergic to corn, soy,

beans, shellfish, fish, chicken, nuts, chocolate, some fruits/veggies, eggs and

dairy, etc.? (I don't eat meat, but do eat organic - it's easier)

I'm a "sports playing- 2 job working single mom".

Thanks!

Alicia

get plenty of fat? (avocados, oil, coconut (if you can have it)) I say that as a hypoglycemic, where too much starch bothers me. other than that, I'm not a big help... if you can have rice, you can get powdered rice proteins that you can use in baking to help increase the protein in your diet...

I use ground flax instead of eggs in my baking; you could probably use water instead of milk, or try Rice Dream; I just plain avoid everything else I'm allergic to. It makes life much easier than trying to substitute.

I have most of those same problems...howeever, I do eat meat so I have some at each meal, very plain--Bette Hagman's books seem very good for allergic people and she has suggestions for alternative ingredients. I checked them out from the local library and have now asked for them for Christmas from my family.

Thanks to all for the help -

a note on the Rice Dream, I've read that it is not considered gluten free

due to it's processing (with oat I think), I used to drink it.

I recently found "hemp seed" by Nutiva for protein - it is not from the illegal plant,

so as long as I can get it - I'm using it.

:D

      I've just had 24 hr ECG monitoring but I am convinced the problem with my heart arythma  is due to Histamine intolerance. I was making and loving L reuteri yogurt, supposed to get rid of sibo, I was also having, on a daily basis, kefir, sauerkraut and loads of spinach plus Avacado. Bananas and cheese have long  been off my list of safe foods as I was having a sort of allergic reaction after eating them and my accupuncturist said I had a heart arrythma.  After the yogurt fest mentioned above, I had a racing heart rate and think I must have had far too many Histamine producing foods. Apparently celiacs have too much histamine in their system anyway and I was, on a daily basis, eating very high histamine foods. I have cut them out of my diet and now eat only low histamine foods and I take quercin so the heart rate has slowed and the thudding I was getting at 4am has gone so I think I am right. The only symptom I  had for celiac disease (3yrs since diagnosed)  was acid reflux and the only thing that stopped the chest pain it gave me was the PPi Rinitidine  an H2 antagonist, to reduce stomach acid, (which high histamine causes) because it nuetralised the histamine!!  I told my doctor this and  he agreed with me and was delightfully shocked by my research,  (btw what would we celiacs do without google?) so I took a Famotadine, amore up to date H2 ppi for a couple of nights and then reduced my histamine intake, now awaiting results re the  ECG..............I seem to have lost my ability to spell, sorry...............

      The problem with a a multiple screening test like this is that it is likely to generate at least one result that is outside the normal range in a healthy person leading to futile investigations. The pathogenesis of dermatitis herpetiformis makes it unlikely that someone would have raised IgA-tTG3 but not raised IgA-tTG2. Suspected dermatitis herpetiformis should be referred to a specialist for diagnosis. dermatitis herpetiformis causes a specific rash and symptoms - not merely hives. https://bestpractice.bmj.com/topics/en-gb/3000326

      @Yaya, Vitamin supplements should be stopped eight to twelve weeks before testing blood levels.  If vitamin supplements are not stopped, the tests will reflect the vitamins in circulation in the blood stream from the supplements, and blood levels may appear within "normal" limits.  Blood tests do not reflect the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where the vitamins are actually utilized.  There can be "normal" levels in the blood, but organs and tissues may be depleted.  The brain sends messages to  tissues and organs to give up their stored vitamins so that the brain and heart don't run out.  That "excellent metabolism" is fueled by Thiamine and the other B vitamins.  Do read the articles above.   Dr. Lonsdale and Dr. Marrs' research changed my life.  Taking high dose thiamine (thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine and TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide)) really improved my health in an impressive way.  Thiamine is water soluble and nontoxic.  Thiamine is safe in high doses.  If not needed, it's easily excreted.  If needed, the improvement will become apparent in a very short time.  No harm, no foul.

      Yes, I had COVID for 10 days thought I recovered like EV1 else, but suddenly had A-fib, hospitalized for 3 days, and now taking Flecainide 2X daily.  Long C also ruined my once excellent metabolism.  I do take B 50, and my bloodwork is always very good.

      Thanks! I don't think it was a total IGA test, it was called "Array 3X - Wheat/Gluten Proteome Reactivity & Autoimmunity" and it tested a bunch of wheat proteins and transglutaminase for both IgG and IGAs.
