Whole chicken in the fridge told my mum at least 50 times its not gluten free but she keeps buying it.... Ive had a bottle of vanilla coke all day! But have a wedding this weekend to so cant get sick.. If I dig under the skin and between the seasoning and pull out white meat what do people thing the odds are it will have gluten?

Not good with the math on odds but I would think it would be hard to get a piece out without something falling on it. Maybe they injected it with seasoning or put some on the inside.

Seems a bit odd that there is nothing else to eat or that your mom would want you to be sick. If someone was trying to poison me, I would find other living arrangements. I'm sure there must be more to this story. :unsure:

Eggs are cheap. Packaged cold cuts that say gluten-free aren't too expensive. Rice and beans are cheap.

Na not like that my friend, my mum just simply doesn't understand the condition, not really her job to understand it either, oh well 4 hrs to bed I think Il just wait it out hungry and get gluten-free fish and chips tommorow!

thanks

Ugh. I wouldn't risk the chicken with a wedding coming up. Any rice you could cook or a potato in the house?

I've never seen gluten-free fish and chips in the US. That sounds really good!

If your mother loves you and cares about you, I'd say it is her job to understand the condition. But thats just me.

I'd pass on the chicken if I were you. Often the chickens are injected which means the gluten is in the whole chicken, not just on the skin.

Definitely pass on the chicken. Can you have a few things in the house for yourself, like nuts, gluten-free crackers, Lara Bars--that sort of thing?

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mike101020! First, what was the reference range for the ttg-iga blood test? Can't tell much from the raw score you gave because different labs use different reference ranges. Second, there are some non celiac medical conditions, some medications and even some non-gluten food proteins that can cause elevated celiac blood antibodies in some individuals. The most likely explanation is celiac disease but it is not quite a slam dunk. The endoscopy/biopsy is considered the gold standard for celiac disease diagnosis and serves as confirmation of elevated blood antibody levels from the blood testing.

      Vitamin D status in the UK is even worse than the US.  vitamin D is essential for fighting bone loss and dental health and resistance to infection.  Mental health and depression can also be affected by vitamin D deficiency.  Perhaps low D is the reason that some suffer from multiple autoimmune diseases.  In studies, low D is a factor in almost all of the autoimmune diseases that it has been studied in. Even while searching for your diagnosis, testing your 25(OH)D status and improving it my help your general wellness. Vitamin D Deficiency Affects 60% in Britain: How to Fix It?

      Hi, I recently was informed by my doctor that I had scored 9.8 on my ttgl blood test and a follow up EMA test was positive.   I am no waiting for a biopsy but have read online that if your EMA is positive then that pretty much confirms celiac. However is this actually true because if it it is what is the point of the biopsy?   Thanks for any help

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.
