Not Celiac After All? (this Is Urgent)

I'm starting to conclude that I may not be Celiac after all. I've only experience changes with absence of gluten due to a introduction to new food in my diet, and say healthier ( like high consumption of Vitamin D lately), prompting better health conditions. I remember re-calling many improvements I began to notice, and so thought on what I just stated above and the improvements in areas... thought of what I have been consuming in high amounts ( I guess Vitamin D and Calcium are a few) and looked their benefits online. What I found in Vitamin D benefits are many improvements I've noticed.

Few benefits:

I do see my doctor June 1st, and instead of being tested for anxiety I think it's urgent that I'm tested for allergies. Have anyone experience/ know anyone who found not to be Celiac but thought so due to better choices of food? Could this likely be my problem? I have seen little to no changes in the lump on the back of my head, I think I will go and consume wheat and see my reactions. It may be likely that I could be allergic to something in the air, or something else.

Hi! Did you get the blood work done? That can give you some guidance here (but you have to be eating gluten when you get the it done so you don't get a false negative).

Sounds like you need piece of mind. Get tested for Celiac and then move on if it isn't the problem.

So stop my gluten free diet and get tested first? Or eat gluten a day or two before testing/ doctors?

I'm not sure how long you've been gluten-free :unsure: but if it's for any length of time it is recommended that you go back on a HIGH gluten diet for SIX WEEKS before you have any tests

Good Luck :)

My assistant's son had lumps on the back of his head/neck and it was related to ongoing sinus problems. When those were addressed, the lumps slowly went away.

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
