Hi All,

I'm new to this particular forum, but I figured this need to be posted under "Research".

This is pretty exciting !

Mine too, GO COUGS!

GO COUGS, indeed!

You know, if this research pans out, I can see a new Coug commercial before the games where someone inquires about a great gluten free grain

that has been developed -- someone then mentions that is was developed at Washington State University..... then the inquirer says,

Ah, GO COUGS!"

(I apologize, those of you who aren't from WAZZU probably won't get it... it's a Coug thing ;)

BTW, celiac-mommy, I'm originally from Richland, now in NJ. Where are you from?

What's a COUG doing in Jersey?

I'm a Husky (sorry) but am also saying GO COUGS on this. (My brother is a COUG, does that help?)

Laura, what's a Coug doing in NJ, you ask? Well, I spend 1/2 my life in WA (it will always be home)

1/2 in Southern Cal (surrounded by thee o so humble Trojans, ugh!) and now

Jersey. Hubs got an offer here he couldn't refuse, heh heh. Actually I love it here.

We live in northern NJ. There is a road near our house that always reminds me of

Okanogan *sighI* And only 45 minutes from NYC.

It's okay if you're a Husky. I never kick a dawg when he's down (sorry, couldn't help myself, *giggle*)

But a least you have a Coug in the family.

That's right, Jestgar. Just when you least expect it, you'll find us. :D

I'm originally from Toledo WA. I was quite a disappointment (in jest only) to my family, they're all Huskies. My cousin played football there-UW-so they had the rest of my life planned out in Seattle, with a football player... I instead met a Coug loving, business/finance majoring, frat partying, WSU only man and married him 2 years later (our 10th anniverary is Aug 1!). It all worked out the way it was supposed to, and now I'm through and through a COUG!!!!! Sorry dawg lovers :D

Very exciting study.

I am neither but I live in Wa. does that count for anything? My daughter plans on being one of them, I just don't know which yet (she is only 16 we have a few years to decide).

I'm a Dawg fan, but I'm partial to the arboretum. Every spring I rent a boat from the U and paddle on over. It is so beautiful there.

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!
    • Scott Adams
      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
    • RMJ
      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products
