Celebrate May For Celiac Awarness

The competition for attention to various diseases in May is extraordinary. No wonder so many people still have never heard of celiac disease ! In a web search in only 3 sites, I identified no less than 19 diseases who want attention in May. Many of them are better known and better funded for research such as cancer, MS, and arthritis to mention a few. But we in the celiac disease community have something they do not, a VIDEO that is posted on YouTube and ready to raise awareness starting May 1.

Our local San Diego Celiac Support Group created this video for the purpose of getting the message out. It has no viruses or commercials. We encourage and support the use and distribution of this video.

Our request is to pass the link on and have as many people as possible view it. Reaching the 3 million people who have celiac disease but do not know it is an awesome task. We are going to find some of them through this effort. Please help.

Thanks, Germaine

Please pass this around ,wherever you go.....Celebrate Celiac Awareness Month.

      Try a multivitamin maybe it will cover what you are deficient in.

      Refractory Celiac disease - what to do

      By cristiana · Posted

      Agreed, and I can't remember exactly and haven't got time to check, but I think my blood didn't normalise for eight years! For years I read this forum thinking why can't I get my numbers down - everyone else manages to.   But my gastroenterologist didn't seem to worry about it, which makes me think he either thought I wasn't complying to the diet, or he'd seen similar cases.

      Celiac Disease Comprehensive Panel

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, being off gluten for 3 months would likely yield negative results. To get accurate testing redone you would need to restart gluten consumption for several weeks (the "gluten challenge") to the tune of at least 10g of gluten daily (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread).

      That is one of the tests covered in the article I linked you above.

      Antibodies to Deamidated gliadin peptides.  It is another celiac antibody test. The main test is the one you had, TTG,  But a full panel will also include DGP IgA and IgG.  I was positive on all of them!
