Well, you have to do what you have to do. Sometimes the choices we have in life aren't optimal ones. Can you do yogurt with natural probiotic cultures?- antibiotic

Do Antibiotics in Babies Increase Celiac Disease Risk Later in Life? (+Video)
Welcome to the celiac.com community @Ednamay! There could very well be a connection. We now know that a healthy gut biome (the mix of various micro organisms that live in the gut) produces enzymes that regulate many body processes. We also know that repeated and long term antibiotic use can upset the balance of this gut biome and disrupt the production...- antibiotic

just a few days off of that drug and my digestive system is finally getting back to normal stopping the gluten challenge was not enough to get back to normal, I was still horribly constipated with what seemed like a paralyzed digestive track- nothing was moving! but now, with a few mag citrate capsules that I had to order online and stopping the chlorthalidone, things are getting back to my usual "working well" digestion so it's clear that the symptoms I had during the gluten challenge were compounded by the new med that was started the same day (I feel like the Dr really should have known better than to do those two things at the same time, add a new drug and start a new diet protocol... but I'm just the patient, what do I know, right?) I am going to do another 24 hr urine in a few weeks to see if lowering the dose of vit D gets my urine calcium down to a more tolerable level. that's the plan. hope it works. -

Click on the image to make it larger. Maybe doesn't work on phone browser, That was from 2021. Absolutely, they should be tested, The point is you have symptoms that the doctors don't understand and malabsorption may be the cause. Not trying to. But much of your rant includes refeferences that may indicate multiple nutritional deficiencies. Some countries also have tax incentives and financial aid for Celiacs. Celiac disease is recognized as a disability under the ADA because it substantially limits major life activities like eating and digestive function. Protections require reasonable accommodations in public accommodations, including schools (504 plans), colleges, and hospitals. These often include providing safe, gluten-free food, though they do not force restaurants to provide it. As far as your recovery, eat gluten free. Get healthier now and worry about diagnosis later. Many here on the forum have gone ten or more years looking for a diagnosis, with many doctors and many misdiagnosis along the way. It really doesn't matter why, but you cannot eat gluten. That is what is important. With gluten out of the way, maybe the doctors can make sense of your remaining symptoms. If you need the ADA, then a medical diagnosis is the way to go. Meantime you are delaying your recovery from whichever celiac disease or NCGS and the inevitable step one of Gluten Free Diet. tWe come to share experiences and maybe it will help someone. In reality, I don't care. By the way I have stopped 6 medications Against Medical Advice because they did not do their job and the side effects were crippling. This is a lifelong fight for your life. Pick you battles carefully. Assume the worst, celiac disease, and deal with it. Denial is not just a river in Egypt. Pleased to meet you, too.
