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!

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
