Hi welcome to the board, looks like you have double DQ1 genes, same as me & my family. There is a double DQ1 thread on the "Coping With" forum, you might want to also post your symptoms, questions etc there. Us double DQ1's like to get to know each other. Do you have any other auto immune illnesses? Is your family from Ireland & England orginally? Anyone in your hfamily ever been diagnosed with hemochromatosis?

With those genes you are considered gluten intolerant, you can google that & come up with a lot of information. this forum does recognize gluten intolerance to a degree, but really it is all the same you still have to avoid gluten and for you dairy also. It is my opinion and some of the other gluten intolerant people that gluten intolerance is nothing more than the beginning stages of celiac, of course you can have double DQ1 & still be dxd by biopsy. 1% of biopsy dxd celiacs do not have DQ2 or DQ8. most of us just say celiac because it is shorter, although that bugs some people ;)

Do you have neurological symptoms also? It is very prevalent with DQ1 genes. Do you have other food sensitivities, "allergies" a lot of us DQ1's also fall into those categories.

Do you know what blood type you are? You can also google double DQ1...

Hi -

Wow. Answers for you: yes - I have Hashimotos Thyroiditis. My fam is Irish and English decent. I don't even know what hemochromatosis is, so I'll have to google that one. ;-) I suffer from migraines as do my Mom, Dad and brother. A Pos on the blood type. I don't have other allgergies that I know of, but this all seems to be a work in progress....

Thanks for the info and reply!

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.
