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!

      Yes, i pulled raw ancetry data and saw i have 2/3 markers for DQ2.2 but have heard from friends in genetics that this raw data can be wildly innacurate

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      What is the best gluten free scanner app? I have the "gluten-free Scanner" app. I scanned an almond joy and it says it contains gluten when the package is labeled gluten free

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.
