I looked over the searches for this and saw there was some question if these was 'safe'. Both have made me sick and it was the 'I ate gluten' kind of sick. At first it was a mystery because I am super careful at home and had no idea how I ingested gluten. ..but when it happened again the M of M was the only common denominator. Silly me didn't think to check on it. Just wanted to caution everyone about them.

Milk of Magnesia does not contain gluten. It's the Magnesium that makes you go....

      Please explain more about the tests you took. What type of blood test was it? Which company offered the test? Also, there is no hair test for celiac disease--what was that test? Also, for your GP to test you for celiac disease you must keep eating gluten daily, and lots of it. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      @Kjmanchester, going on a gluten free diet before the GP has had a chance to run the blood tests for celiac disease will likely invalidate the results of the tests. Hair sample tests for gluten disorders are not recognized as reliable diagnostic methods. Can you supply a link to the "pin prick" test you got from Amazon? The fact that your symptoms have improved since removing gluten from your diet indicates that you either have celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). They share many of the same symptoms but NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. But since you have already started the gluten-free diet, as I already explained, your testing for celiac disease will likely not be accurate. For it to be accurate you would need to restart gluten and be eating generous amounts of it for several weeks before the test blood draw.

      I'm newly diagnosed  bought a test from Amazon it was a pin prick for blood showed positive ? So I decided to send my hair sample off that came back 100% all types that contain gluten ! So asked my Gp for a blood test to confirm ? I have been waiting over 3 weeks for this test to come back.. since hair test I have cut out anything with gluten in, and my rash is disappearing and toilet is more firm as before it was like pouring water down the loo.
