You may have a problem with yeast. Yeast antibodies are commonly found in celiacs, at least until they have been gluten-free for quite a while. Do you seem to react to yeasted bread?

Another possibility is that you had a wine that was fined with casein. Tiny amounts of fining agents do remain in the final product and people have reported reacting to them. There is currently a proposal before the FDA to require vintners to list allergens just like food manufacturers have to. To see if this is your problem, try a vegan wine (google and you can find listings).

It may be easier to start with something distilled like vodka or tequila, and then only have one drink. I don't know if there is anyway of guaranteeing you won't react, though. Your system may not be ready for alcohol yet.

You are sure that it was the wine that did you in, right? No possibility it was a stomach bug, food poisoning, a reaction to something you ate at the same time, etc.?

Was it homemade wine by any chance? I only ask because one time (before I had Celiac) I had a very bad experience with homemade wine. I only had two glasses at a wedding and I threw up all night. I'm generally not a big drinker but I'm not that much of a lightweight. Never been so sick in my life, until Celiac that is. I know a few other people got ill from the wine as well. So if it was homemade wine you might want to consider that.

This is definitely not a slight to those who make their own wine. I'm sure most people do a perfectly fine job and experiences like mine are probably quite rare.

I have very strange reactions to alcohol, too. I can have one drink and throw up all night. Or sometimes I'll have two or three over the course of a few hours (so it's not a drunk thing :)), and then I'll throw up. Other times I'm fine. It doesn't seem to be related to being glutened or sick or a specific alcohol or anything. I wish I knew what to tell you. I've been doing the diet pepsi thing a lot recently :(

      @Shining My Light, what do you mean when you say "the blood test not being 100%"? Were you expecting all possible celiac blood antibody tests to be positive in the case of someone who actually does have celiac disease? That seldom, if ever, happens. You are gauging too much on how you feel when you consume gluten and not paying enough attention to test results. If the idea of eating 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily to get 10g of gluten is repulsive to you then go the health food store and buy powdered gluten, weigh it out on a food scale, and make shakes with it. Many report that Gliadin X helps them in a significant way to ward off unpleasant reactions to minor gluten...

      Hi @RMJ,   Thank you for you input. I really appreciate all view points on this, more than you know.  Maybe I’ve done too much research. One thing I read would point to yes and then along comes all these variables that convinces me that my levels were high because of having a virus.  I don’t like bread or pasta that much but seriously love baked goods.  I’m scared to give those up “for no reason”  I’m also scared to be doing damage to my body.    I’m stuck in a situation where I’m scared and confused either way.    It’s hard for people with silent celiac because you don’t “feel” like you are doing the right thing.    I did see some advertisements on here about Giliad X? Is that a supplement for...

      Thank you @trents!    I have been going back and forth on some gluten free some days and some days not trying to see if there is any reaction to how I feel.    As much as I don’t want to I think given the blood test not being 100%. It’s fair to say an EGD is necessary.  I do think before I go through with that I would run another TTG IGA if my doctor would approve that. If levels are the same, I have no choice. 😔    In the mean time I’m going to enjoy gluten. The biggest problem I have is the thought of eating 4-6 slices of bread per day. That’s crazy! There has to be something comparable. Possibly an “average” of about that per day? Is there any lists of foods out there that are trade offs? (4...

      Damage with silent celiac exists. I am a silent celiac.  I was tested because I have the gene predisposing to celiac disease and migraines.  All of my antibodies were high (TTG IgA, TTG IgG, DGP IgA, DGP IGG, EMA). I had a biopsy which showed damage. After going gluten free I felt better overall and have more energy. Unfortunately it didn’t help the migraines. Sorry to be blunt and write this, but it sounds like you’re really in denial about the possibility of having celiac disease. Understandable, and not uncommon on this forum.

      Welcome to the forum, @terrymouse! Your GI doc is correct. Going gluten free now will allow healing to occur in the villous lining of the small bowel such that the endoscopy/biopsy may not show the damage to the villous architecture that is characteristic of celiac disease. Since your celiac blood antibody tests results are on the low side and don't "scream" of celiac disease I think it is important to go forward with the endoscopy/biopsy while still consuming gluten to ensure it will not be a wasted effort. The last thing you want is to have two different test modalities that unnecessarily contradict one another. So, unless the continued consumption of gluten poses an immediate and...
