I heard that it was gluten free and I checked with the customer service but I find customer experience to be superior sources of info. for these things so I was wondering, how did you react to it?

Also, how are your experiences eating in a non-gluten free household? I tend to wash everything religiously take fruit: I would wash my hands (to keep them gluten-free), then I would put the fruit down on a gluten-free item (like a paper-towel), then I would wash my hands again, wash the fruit, then I would wash my hands AGAIN, then I would get another paper-towel to dry off the fruit, then I would wash my hands again, then I would eat the fruit -does it seem like much?

Thanks :)

That sounds exactly like what I was doing. I figured I was obsessive complusive but didn't know how else to avoid gluten. I've relaxed some and haven't had cross contamination issues in two weeks. If I get glutened again, it's back to my obsesssive compulsive behavior.

I'm very careful putting clean dishes away. I wash my hands with a paper towel and then open all drawers and cabinets with a paper towel. That way I don't have to rewash my dishes when I use them.

I'm just as careful with flossing my teeth even though I keep my floss, toothbrush and toothpaste in a separate cabinet. I figure with my fingers getting inside my mouth while flossing that it would be so easy to get cc.

I'm very sensitive, but we went to a gluten free household before I could get more healthy days. I also stopped taking vitamins. I try to eat good food instead.

I have some Natures made (not C) & they are fine. I think there are more fun ways to get your vit C. OJ, lemonade, Vitamin water, juice, an orange.

I just bought some nature made vitamin C to take with my iron and it says on the bottle no artificial colors, no artificial flavors, no preservatives, and no Yeast or gluten.

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.
