Just got the results of my Daughters blood work for Celiac Disease. She was dx'd 1 year ago this month, complete with

positive biopsy. Well now, 1 year later, her count is now completely normal -- YIPPPEEE SKIPPPY! She did it -- we did it.

She was really happy when we told her the great news how proud we were of her results, that we know it hasn't been easy.

And she knows that she still has to keep up the gluten-free diet. I know she feels better -- much happier :D

So if anyone is a struggling parent of a Celiac kid, and you feel overwhelmed, just hang in there.

It's well worth it.

WOOOHOOO!!! Way to go on those test results! It felt so good to get my daughter into the normal range after just 3 months! Makes me feel good as a mommy and super proud of her for sticking with it and feeling well.

It is quite an accomplishment!

Thanks all! I don't know how long she has been "normal", I just thought we'd give it a year

before I re-checked. I use "normal" cautiously, because we all know that this is a lifetime thing,

and I don't want her to ever have a false impression that she's done being gluten-free.

...although some day, there will be a pill for celiacs to take that will allow foods with gluten.

Congratulations to you and your daughter! That's is wonderful!

Sometimes I wish that my daughter's testing wasn't inconclusive so that we could kind of "check" on how she's doing. Oh well.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
