Sorry you are not feeling well.

Did you get tested for H. Pylori? If you have it, it will need to be treated. I personally would use Mastic Gum and Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice plus lots of fresh/clean water to get rid of it. But ask your doctor about this.

I would also take Digestive enzymes with my meals. Like "Digest More". No HCL (Hydrochloric Acid for now). Plus a good probiotic. And "Pepzin GI" to heal my stomach lining.

Avoid the foods that aggravate ulcers:

Open Original Shared Link

Eat everything else not on that list.

This is what "I" would do, but check with your doctor before trying anything you read online.

they did a biopsy of the ulcers so i think he is testing for the H. Pylori from what i understand and they started me on acid reducing medicine that is supposed to help heal, but takes time. Thanks for the advice!

      Doctors and Celiac.com

      I wonder how many doctors are aware of this site and would or should recommend it to their patients?

      Hypothetical question about antibodies

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I just got my test results after a less than 2-week gluten challenge consuming about 5 g of gluten per day on average.  Anti tTG-IgA: <0.2 AU/ml (<8 is negative) IgA: 180 mg/dl (Reference range is 70-400) I previously had been on a gluten-free diet for around 3 years or so, with occasional cheating and not being strict about cross-contamination. I am however still suffering from the effects of the gluten challenge (food sensitivities, slight brain fog, weird stool, fatigue, swollen thyroid, bodyaches). Is this likely to be NCGS rather than celiac disease given the test results and my history? Note: I have one copy of HLA-DQ8.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By trents · Posted

      How long have you been strictly gluten free? Certainly, it would be good to look into vitamin and mineral deficiencies and supplementation. The B vitamins, magnesium and D3 are all very important to neurological health. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to reverse gluten-induced neurological damage damage if it has gone on for a long time.

      Thanks Trents I'm strict with my gluten-free diet now. I just don't feel any better. I'm going to get tested for vitamins and minerals to see if I need some supplements. For sure I got some damage that doctors call Menier's and the only way they treat it is with medicine that does damage my body more than it helps.

      Thank you Scott for your helpful response! Based on this, would you say someone who is on a gluten-free diet - but not strict about cross-contamination and occasional cheating - and tests negative for tTg-IgA while having normal total IgA is not likely to have celiac, even if they have been 'gluten-free' for years?
