I have search the forum for a way to post to a forum. So far, I can find only posting to a member. As a new member I have no friends to post. Actually, I am looking for support as I face another major surgery and would like to discuss with others who have had hiatal hernias or other hernias. Thanks for your help with this matter.

Hi Betty and welcome :)

My hubby has a small hiatal hernia and it would seem many coeliacs discover they have one during their endoscopy.

Luckily for him once he went gluten-free it didn't cause him any more problems.

I'm sure there are others out there who will answer soon :)

Thanks for the welcome, I hope your husband nevers has to go through what I have been through in the last 10 years with my digestive system. If some doctor suggest he uses Nexium say NO!. I blame it for the start of my major problems.

      Should I ask for more testing? Celiac vs. Gluten Sensitivity

      You really saved me as I was on day 4 of 3 g per day for 6 weeks. Thank you very much!

      Two weeks is the minimum according to the guideline. I would go for four weeks if you can endure it, just to make sure.

      Thank you so much! So I can do 10 g worth of gluten in the form of gluten powder per day for two weeks and that should be enough?

      It applies to both blood tests and biopsies. Guidelines for the gluten challenge have been revised for the very issue your question raises. It was felt by medical professionals that the longer term but less intense consumption of gluten approach was not proving to be reliable for testing purposes and was resulting in too many false negatives. But do keep in mind that the gluten consumption doesn't have to be in the form of bread slices. It can come in any form: pasta, cake, wraps, etc. Another approach would be to buy gluten powder at a health food store and mix it in a shake. The idea is to get at least 10g of gluten daily, whatever form it comes in.

      Hey there, You mentioned that current guidelines recommend to eat the equivalent of 4-6 slices of wheat bread for several weeks. Is it ok to do less for a longer period of time, for example 2 slices for 6 weeks? Also, does this recommendation apply to blood tests as well as the biopsy, or do they each have different timelines? Thanks in advance!
