I'm overwhelmed with information, and I'm hungry!!! My girlfriend found the Healthy Choice chicken rice soup, and made some gluton free brownie's for my B-day that I munch on....ummm banana's, apples. I had been gluten-free for a week and was so amazed at the results!!! Wow Wow Wow......and finally ...Wow! Then we went for Sushi last night we my daughter and boyfriend. I have been so sick! Every symptom has come back with a vengence.

PS: I'm not diagnosed , Dr. told me to try to gluton free and set me up for the GI consult. Now I wonder if I need to continue killing myself to get the positive test???

Confused and overwhelmed.....and hungry

To get accurate testing for celiac you need to be eating gluten... Your doctor is wrong by telling you to go gluten-free then see a GI doc.. He's got it A__ __ backwards......Plus I assume you are an adult& you tried going gluten-free & felt instant relief when not eating gluten.Then you went to a sushi place & got sick... That should help you make your choice..

Not everyone needs a stamped certificate stating you need to be gluten-free... It' s your choice to get tested or not be tested... With children they need to be tested & dx'd for school...adults can make their own choice ...

If you are gonna get tested than you got keep eating gluten. If you stop eating it the test can come back negitive. So decide if you want an offical dignostic. If not you can do a gluten challenge but that can be negative to.

Thats up to you.

I would 'like' an official diagnosis so I would know what to do with my kids (who are very young still), and to convince my mom and sister who have problems and are stubborn to get tested. But honestly I feel so much better I don't want to go back to gluten or the ridiculous cost of testing.

I haven't tried sushi yet, I believe not all rice is gluten free, most soy sauce is 60% wheat also. You actually have to buy soy sauce thats gluten free (kind of messed up that soy sauce is mostly made of wheat normally).

Sushi is hard. Not only do you have to avoid the regular soy sauce, but some of the other sauces used in the sushi also have gluten. Like the sauce they use on the smoked eel (which was my favorite before going gluten-free). And teriyaki sauce can have glutent too. Doesn't leave much options except for lots of edimame :)

Most soy sauce has wheat unless you buy gluten free Tamari soy sauce, which is 100% soy. But not all Tamari sauces are gluten free, so make sure it says so on the label.

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
