I could use some feedback from those out there that have been gluten free for a while. I have been struggling the last two years to figure out why I could not lose weight and why I was always sick. After having to have emergency surgery to remove my gallbladder followed by a case of Pancreatitis and ending with a severe liver and kidney infection. It was shortly after my last hospital stay at thanksgiving that a wonderful doctor recommended me to try a gluten free diet and sure enough it solved so many of my problems. I tried to go back to gluten thinking it couldn

What type (even if minor) exercise to you get each day?

- Ride a bike?

- Short walks?

- Cardio?

- Treadmill

You would be surprise how many calories and fat can be burned with just a 25 minute walk around the neighborhood.

You might be intolerant of eggs and/or dairy. Might need to do an elimination diet. Gluten is one problem, but the other intolerances cause the same symptoms you describe.

I got rid of soy, but didn't want to eliminate eggs and dairy. When I finally did...5 months later....I started getting even better.

      @Healthforme, No prescription needed for thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide).  They are available over the counter.   Thiamine Mononitrate is not recommended because the body doesn't absorb or utilize it well.

      HLA-DQ2 is NOT a continuum 2.01 to 2.99, but I don’t understand HLA genetics well enough to explain it further.  It is not just one gene that is either this or that.
    • trents
      Okay, I'm taking a guess here. We are used to hearing in layman terms that having either the HLA-DQ2 or the HLA-DQ8 gene, either heterozygous or homozygous, presents the possibility of developing active celiac disease. So, I'm guessing that the HLA-DQ2 gene is actually a range of variants (2.01-2.99) with HLA-DQ 2.5 being in the centerpiece of the range. I'm also guessing that "permissive" is equivalent to "possessing the possibility" to develop active celiac disease and does not address the issue of hetero vs. homozygus per se. But the fact that 2.01,2.01 is a couplet may indicated homozygousity? All wild guesses.

      I received the results that my child has the genes for celiac disease (she is still undergoing testing and it has been complicated). Can someone explain if this is homozygous HLA DQ 2.5 or not? The interpretation just says permissive for celiac disease. Thank you! DQ Alpha 1  05:01, 5 DQ Beta 1 02:01, 02:01 DQ serologic equivalent 2,2
