So I fixed some Bobs Red Mill gluten-free Brownies and it said on the package as an option to add chocolate chips. I checked around and it looked like Hershey's Milk Chocolate Chips were okay so I added about 1/4 cup. I added a little cream cheese on top (yum...these were great) but within a few minutes I had the same stomach issues going on that I had before I went gluten-free. Any ideas? Were the chocolate chips a bad idea? I'm getting a little overwhelmed with what I can and can't eat...lol...I'm almost becoming afraid to eat! Any help would be appreciate~ thanks all! This site has become a real lifesaver!!!

Sounds more like it could have been the cream cheese. If you are new to a gluten free diet you should lay off the dairy and soy products so your intestines can heal.

Have you used the Brownie mix before with no issues? I say this because I don't tolerate BRM mixes. It is not that they have gluten but that I don't tolerate the sorghum flour that many of them contain.

Bob's Red Mill actually doesn't agree with me either! Except with me it makes my mouth burn, so I figure I'm allergic to something in it. I've used the bread mix and all purpose mix and both do it. Perhaps its the sorghum? I thought it might be the fava bean flour. I don't think I've ever eaten fava beans so I have no idea. I bought the pancake mix, which doesn't have fava bean flour so if I do ok with that then I know! Haven't made them yet though.

We haven't had a problem with BRM brownies...they just come out a bit too fudgy/chewy/not-cakelike. We don't like cake-like either, which we found Betty Crocker to be.

So yesterday I combined one package of BRM and one package of Betty Crocker added some extra chocolate chips -- came out just right.

I made some BRM and threw in some Nestles ChocoChips and didn't have a problem but everybody is different. I would not of been able to do the cream cheese and like someone else said it could of been something else in the mix.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By trents · Posted

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Roses8721! How long were you off gluten before getting the celiac blood testing done? The testing is not valid after having been gluten free for a significant period of time. Many of your symptoms align with celiac disease.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      Hello, I am feeling frustrated. I have hEDS and lifelong digestive issues but my GI PA is very focused on my celiac panel and I just want to make sure that she should be focused on that because completely changing my diet seems to have worsened my symptoms.  Symptoms are constipation, diarrhea, and acid reflux with spicy foods and certain foods like tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions. I also don't have a gallbaldder as it was removed almost a year ago. This also exacerbated my symptoms. I did have joint pain from hEDS but that was already treated with low dose naltrexone about 4 months prior to going completely gluten free. Endoscopy was abnormal but inconclusive; basically showed some inflammation - which common with hEDS. I don't have any vitamin deficiency.   Celiac Panel Results: TTG-A <0.5 U/ML Reference Range: 0.5-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 DGP-A 72.0 U/ML Reference Range: 0.2-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 TTG-G <0.8 U/ML Reference Range: 0.8-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 DGP-G 24.0 U/ML Reference Range: 0.4-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 IgG-A-M Results: IMMUNOGLOBULIN A, QN, SERUM 165 MG/DL Reference Range: 87-352 MG/DL IMMUNOGLOBULIN M, QN, SERUM 164 MG/DL Reference Range: 26-217 MG/DL   What are your thoughts, internet? Are there any questions I should be asking the PA? Thanks!

      By Roses8721 · Posted

      Help. I’m spiraling. Years of extensive symptoms:  What could this be? Years of: Mildly elevated alk and alt Fatty liver Random days of feeling like I’m coming down w flu but no fever and nobody else in house sick Intermittent diarrhea Severe abdominal distension Long history of cavities and enamel deficiency Sound sensitivity Anxiety and depression Low libido Sun skin allergy Frequent fatigue ended up seeing PCP because I looked 8 mo preg. Started gluten-free diet then celiac serology negative. SW GI Dr dx me w celiac as I had been in bed for 3 days after eating gluten after cutting. GI said not to do biopsy because it was clear what was going on and added to chart. My spiral is not seeing anywhere this is done and want to see if anyone else has dealt w this. If not celiac idk what else I will do. Family history or celiac as well as a death related to this.
