There is an article from the current issue of New England Journal of Medicine, about medical progress in the treatment and diagnosis of celiac (copy and paste the link into browser):

If it does not open, go to celiacchicks' site, the article is linked on the first page, under the second or third picture from the top. You normally have to have a subscription to see full articles on the NEJM , but the CeliacChicks have generously reproduced it.

Thanks.

The link does not always work. You may have to find it on celiacchicks' home page, under the second or third photograph, called The New England Journal of Medicine.

I couldn't get the link to work, and I couldn't find celiacchick anywhere on this board (I did a member search). :(:blink:

I was very glad to see such a comprehensive article in the NEJM. Some of his information was daunting, in that nonresponders' diagnoses are much more limited than I thought, and fairly dismal!!!!!!

:( Guess we had all better tighten up wherever we can......I'm thinking about retiring and dedicating the rest of my life to raising my own food! Nah...........at least, not yet!

Thank you I printed it off so I could read it later when I get a moment.

I get tired of seeing "losing weight" as a symptom of celiac disease. I am overweight, the result of having celiac disease, and would like to see that part of the disease acknowledged and addressed. Has anyone here seen it addressed by a doctor? If so, I certainly would like to read about it. The article was really interesting BUT, my villa were flattened and my weight was over 230#. I sure would like to know WHY.

"The risk of breast cancer however, appears to be reduced."

I'll take every bit of good news I can squeeze out of this disease. Particularly since that sentance comes right after a particularly grizzly one. That article could scare you silly if you let it.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
