How are you doing with other corn products? Some people seem to react to corn in the same way as gluten (my mom and sister do, thank goodness I don't).

The other suspect I would have would be the seasoning. I looked it up online and didn't see any suspicious ingredients, but not all companies are good about avoiding contaminations between one product and another made on the same equipment. Many many packaged seasonings contain wheat products.

Also, since you're so new to this, is it possible something got contaminated in your own kitchen? Have you, for example, cleaned out your silverware drawer (many drawers seem to breed bread crumbs)? Did you grab a spatula or wooden spoon that might have been contaminated, and use that for your preparation?

Depending on the extent of damage to your villi, you may have reactions during the recovery phase to foods that are gluten-free. The spices in the taco seasoning may have triggered it. I had extensive damage to my villi, and had random reactions during the first few weeks of my recovery. Four days is early in the process.

Thank you everyone for your responses...

After only 4 days I had seen such an improvement, I was feeling more like myself, no running to/from the bathroom, etc. So when this happened it hurt...

I didn't really expect I was cross contimation sensitive, but I am now guessing I may be. What else can you recommend to stay away from in the early weeks?

I travel on the road quite a bit and I am so leary of eating out at restaurants. I ate at a Sonny's BBQ yesterday, after doing some research and it didn't seem to bother me at all.

Thanks Again!

I'm not familiar with Wick Fowler's taco seasoning, but I've had issues with other taco seasoning. Little hidden ingredients can be an issue.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.
