Hey,

Im new here, but not to being gluten free. I have some questions but i guess ill start at the beg

about 5 years ago I started having a lot of stomach problems, i hurt worse everytime i ate and was loosing some weight. i had everyone test done...colonoscopy, endoscopy, uppergi, blood work....I have juvenille rheumatoid arthritis, and also dont have IGA in my blood...therefore I cant NOT test positive for celiac through the blood work. I was neg with all the tests...SOOO I was put on an illimination diet and gluten seemed to be the conclusion. So i went gluten free, things were much better....not perfect but a huge improvement. THen after going to college I decided that hey maybe gluten was ok and i should test it. SO last summer I experimented a little...i was like hey its not celiac sooo its not gonna ruin my intestines, just migh tmake me feel sick. WELL I was fine....so this year at school ive been eating a little gluten, just like a small thing every few days, never a whole meal...more like one cookie. its been fine till a few days ago when i had 2 bites of yummy gluten..sick 30 mins later.

SO other part of story, i got blood work resutsl back and had extremely low triglycerides like 7 when its uspposed to be 150, I looked it up and it can be from malabsoprion/celiac......sooooo im wondering again

im going to the gi wen i get home from school

sooooo i forgot to so my stomach issues consist of lots of pain and diaraeh lol pretty standard...

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
