Question About Gluten Intake Prior To Celiac Panel

Hi,

I've been gluten (and symptom) free for the past few weeks, but I still want confirmation so I'm having the gluten panel done in 2 weeks. I'm aware that I need to start consuming gluten again, but my question is how much? I'm only going to have gluten at dinner to avoid becoming ill at work or school. Is there like a standard about, like would 2 pieces of wheat bread per day do it?

Thank you & sorry if this has been asked a billion times I tried to search feature but it's being finicky right now.

It would really depend on the amount of time you were off gluten. There really isn't a standard time frame. You mentioned several weeks?

It's often recommended that you eat 3-4 pieces (or equivalent) of bread for two to three months, for someone who has been gluten free for an extended period of time.

Here is the Serologic Panel for Celiac:

Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG

Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) - IgA

Anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG) - IgA

Total IgA level.

Hope this helps and good luck with your testing.

Momma Goose,

I had been gluten free for only 3 weeks. I've begun to take in 3+ pieces of bread per day (yuck). Thanks a lot for your help, I appreciate it.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
