Need Help Understanding Follow-Up Bloodwork Results

I guess I will need to get both books and research them. I definitely don't want to have to mess with getting a yogurt maker & making the yogurt, so maybe I will go the sauerkraut route. Is that something you just buy already prepared?

Do you know how long it should take to know whether or not the diet is working? Thanks!

It's possible to improvise a yogurt maker. I have a one liter plastic jar with a screw on lid whichI I use. Put the yogurt makings in that and I wrap it in an electric heating pad set on the lowest or second lowest setting for 24 hours. Makes delicious yogurt. :) And easy to store in the fridge too. :D

You need sauerkraut with live bacteria. You can buy Bubbie's brand. My local health food store carries unpasteurized kimchee and fermented beets but the are super-expensive and making sauerkraut is pretty easy once you get the cabbage shredded. My digestion really evened out after a month or so on GAPS. Super-regular, no more random episodes of diarrhea, no bloating, no gas. Unfortunately the brain fog I was looking to fix didn't get better and something I was eating was triggering migraines so I'm reworking my diet again.

      I was diagnosed at 6 after having severe stomach pain after eating white bread or any kind of gluten my sister had one done aswell I was scared for the biopsy but thats bc the gas mask thing but now that I am a 14yr old female struggling with severe chronic pain making my body ache for no reason making it hard to sleep and do the things I love like playing spot which I love to do but I can sometimes not even be able to walk bc my knees hurt so bad I can or my hips or back the only think I wish for is to be a normal kid which I can't even be and I get accused of faking pain bc there is no physical things to notice especially at school when one day it will be so sore im limping the next im walking perfectly fine idk if its all from celiac disease but im the only one in my family that has this problem

      I noticed eating gluten-free or CGF foods have higher sugar and sodium some. No added sugar protein bars I found better with plant fiber. I wanted to know what are you go to besides whole fruits/veggies that you find are healthy for you where you can feel eating normal without hurting yourself or health. I was looking into subscription based like Thrift to see if there is something that is healthier CGF that can make me feel normal. Thanks

      Thankyou because I met up with K B with well known bay area hospital once and she said she knows I don't like to take meds, I said thats incorrect, I have issues.Thats the one that said I was deemed " unruly " when she admitted I was celiac when I asked why am I going through this.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.
