Hey, guys me again.

I actually feel worse after 1 week no gluten. My stomach symptoms are gone, and I was good for like 4 days but then I crashed.

I'm very weak, especially my limbs.

It takes a lot longer than one week to feel better. A few months even. Are you sure you were 100% gluten-free. It takes a long time to get fmailiar with the do and do not haves. Maybe you have issues with dairy and spices, too?

I feel better after eating gluten actually...

until my stomach starts hurting and the nausea begins.

No, I put soy sauce on my rice today. So not 100% But the past week I have not done anything beside that.

I bought baker's gluten from the store for eighty nine cents.

I think I might give it a test run before my celiac test.

My insurance doesn't cover it at school so I have to wait a week.

We'll see.

Thanks turtle.

What is the bakers gluten for? To see if it makes you sick?

I wouldn't even expect to feel better so soon. Your body has to repair itself. For me it took 3 months to get to about 85% and then another couple months to feel completely normal. For some people it may take more or less time to heal but don't expect to feel better so soon because a lot of people don't feel better that fast.

Even at the 1 week you are still having gluten containing foods like soy sauce so definately don't expect to feel better. At first there are alot of accidents too because there are things you think are gluten-free that really are not gluten-free. Gluten can be hidden under numerous things like natural flavors and things like that and it takes a little bit of time to learn the ropes of what we can eat.

Look at this link it will provide you with a guideline of safe and forbidden foods for celiacs.

Good luck :D

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific? 
    • mishyj
      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
