Hi all... I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in 11/07 after being symptomatic for approx. 14 years. I've been on the gluten free diet for close to four months now, and while I'm feeling better, I know I still have a lot of healing to do. I've heard lots of positive things about the gut healing qualities of slippery elm bark and marshmallow root. i'd like to give it a try, and was curious if anyone is currently using capsules that are gluten-free and what brands are suggested.

Any help with this would be appreciated!

      Need advice for some relief!

      By JD-New to Celiac · Posted

      I am surprised that your doctor would not diagnose based on sight? I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis but the biopsy came back negative. The dermatologist said that can happen as the disease was not active at the time, but it was classic dermatitis herpetiformis in his opinion especially since I was already diagnosed with celiac several years prior to the dermatitis herpetiformis flare up. Like many on the dermatitis herpetiformis threads I suffered from itchy burning lesions on my elbows. Very painful when I was in the shower. Dermatologist prescribed dapsone gel 7.5%. There is a pill option but I wanted to first try the topical gel and it eased the burning sensation and after a few...

      What should tTG IgA be if Gluten Free?

      By JD-New to Celiac · Posted

      I have celiac and I have been gluten free for several years. Very careful and as far as I know I have never consumed gluten. Recently my bowel movements changed dramatically and I have been Bristol 6 for two months and just now moving to Bristol 5. My GI ran all sorts of blood tests and all were good.

I am wondering if I did Ingest gluten and the Bristol 6 stools, the abdominal pain, and nausea are all a result of eating gluten. The GI does not think so since I was at 13.6...or in his words "normal". He wants to do endoscopy, biopsy, colonoscopy, because...
