Are you still eating dairy and soy? If yes, they could be the culprit.

Nope been casein free for the year and soy free for at least 6 months. I was also yeast and sugar free at the time of the test. Im just baffled.

Yes, that is odd then. I wished I'd have some advice, but I am stumped. Hopefully somebody else has some ideas.

I've read about this happening to others as well. I have a feeling these inconsistencies are the reason Dr. Fine hasn't published anything yet.

Try having a blood test through your Dr. You might get clearer picture of how you're doing on the diet that way.

I dont think it has to do with anything about dr fine not being published. I do know i have other issues going on and im just trying to figure them out. Last time i did my follow up celiac panel my ttg was still up but he thinks it could be from my candida infection.

are you eating replacement gluten-free grain products? I think they all have a level of cross contamination.

Did you ever have a biopsy? Maybe you ought to have one to have a look to see if there is visible damage or another problem (I can't believe I am saying this, but sometimes a biopsy is a good idea).

      Searching for the source - anyone have problems with Crunchmaster crackers?

      Thank you for your reply Knitty Kitty (from a fellow knitter) My TSH and T4 is within normal range, and has been checked along with the rest of my bloodwork consistently over the past many years. I am very aware of Hashimoto's since my mom has it  (she does not have celiac disease, her other autoimmune disease is diabetes (which I am monitored for but don't have - I "only" have allergies).  And yes - I eat iodized salt to protect my thyroid. Good suggestions though and thank you for the links.

      Progesterone pills - are they gluten free??

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Progesterone stimulates the thyroid.  The thyroid stimulates the immune system which increases production of IgG antibodies.   Progesterone Upregulates Gene Expression in Normal Human Thyroid Follicular Cells https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4454767/ Celiac Disease and Autoimmune Thyroid Disease: The Two Peas in a Pod https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9312543/

      @Mettedkny, Have you had your thyroid checked lately?  People with thyroid problems like Hashimoto's thyroiditis produce tTg IgG antibodies whether exposed to gluten or not.  Hashimoto's is another autoimmune disease frequently found with Celiac disease.  Do you eat iodized salt or sea salt?   P. S.  Progesterone stimulates the thyroid.  The thyroid stimulates the immune system which increases production of IgG antibodies.   Progesterone Upregulates Gene Expression in Normal Human Thyroid Follicular Cells https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4454767/ Celiac Disease and Autoimmune Thyroid Disease: The Two Peas in a Pod https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9312543/

      Then it sounds like the thing you really need to focus more on is being more consistent with the gluten-free diet. Another suggestion I would make is to avoid using a lot of pre-made gluten-free food. Gluten-free facsimile flours are not enriched like their wheat counterpart and are full of empty calories. Focus on naturally gluten free foods that are nutrient and calorie dense. Have you had your vitamin D3 levels checked?
