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?

(nothing else in the fridge lol... tight with money)

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?

      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.
