Dear all

I am new member here and thought I could find some friendly advise or opinion from people that is celiac as me.

I had an operation on my stomach for a bowel obstruction which trigged my celiac disease. I had my operation in 2005 and 2006 had to go twice for blood transfusion to hospital until finally the doctors found it was the gluten problem.

I have been more than one year on gluten free diet which helped me to feel better. However, lately I started to feel tired again and my hair falling down. Can it be perhaps the milk? I still drink milk as the doctor said my problem was only gluten no lactose. Any opinion about it? I will have to face anyhow my doctor with my new blood results during the next days.

Other thing that really scared me was strong acid pain on my stomach which was passed to the lower part of my back

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to being "safe".

      I don't live in the US, but based on this thread, I wouldn't risk it:   https://www.reddit.com/r/glutenfree/comments/1n2ehw8/cracker_barrel/   This app is helpful: https://www.findmeglutenfree.com/

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?

      Welcome to the forum, @Mmoc! Please include the reference ranges for the IGA and the TTG tests in your next post if you have access to them. We cannot comment much otherwise as different labs use different reference ranges for these tests and also different units of measurement. There are no universal standards as of yet so the raw test numbers are not always helpful. Having said that, if your IGA (what we usually call "total IGA") is low, the TTG-IGA score will be skewed and cannot be trusted. Other kinds of tests for celiac disease would need to be run, particularly those in the IGG family of tests. Perhaps this will be helpful:
