Hi I am new to this forum and to my condition. I was looking for help and info and stumbled on this forum and first I want to say

A HUGE thanks to all of you as I have learned so much reading these posts already and I still have loads to read.

Also sorry if I ask any silly questions along the way.

I do not know if I am celiac or wheat intolerant. I had given up wheat for 6 weeks when I had my blood test done and no way could I go back to eating it for another test it just makes me too ill. It has now been 9 weeks since I gave it up and I am still making loads of mistakes but I feel so so much better.

Right I am off to get reading again! :rolleyes:

Hi, I am new here also! what a Godsend this place is! Just diagnosed two days ago...and February 21st was my first gluten-free day ever.

WOW!!! i felt great all day and again today. I hope it's not a non-related coincidence.

I'm going shopping today for lots of "specialty" items without gluten. I've already found a bunch of "normal" food that doesn't contain gluten, but some bread and crackers would be nice too!

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.

      trents:  Why some can tolerate european bread but not american bread.     I take 600 mcg a day.  Right in the middle of the safe range.   Groups at Risk of Iodine Inadequacy Though though the NIH does not specifically list Celiac Disease in this group, they state: "Iodide is quickly and almost completely absorbed in the stomach and duodenum. Iodate is reduced in the gastrointestinal tract and absorbed as iodide [2,5]."  That would certainly include malabsorption of Iodine due to Celiac Disease with resultant Iodine Deficiency. Vegans and people who eat few or no dairy products, seafood, and eggs People who do not use iodized salt Pregnant women People with marginal iodine status who eat foods containing goitrogens Deficiencies of iron and/or vitamin A may also be goitrogenic [51] https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Iodine-HealthProfessiona   1

      Wheatwacked, are you speaking of the use of potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide as dough modifiers being controlling factor for what? Do you refer to celiac reactions to gluten or thyroid disease, kidney disease, GI cancers?
