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.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease. 
    • JettaGirl
      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
