I was diagnosed years ago (12) with Lyme disease, but then saw a specialist and he said i do not have Lyme disease. However he never did any tests? I wonder if I do have it. i don't have any of the major symptoms, like rashes, bells palsy etc...do you?

Hey, I just recently started eating Gluten Free and was diagnosed and I KNOW sex is better. It's amazing. What a great positive to eating gluten free. Good for you and me!

Hi Sally, I am a woman, not pregnant. I've had my thyroid checked several times and it appears normal. I am getting over a cold and do have my "." right now. maybe that's it. The symptoms are a little better today, after I slept 10 hours straight. I have been feeling better on a gluten free diet and don't know what I might have eaten over the weekend...

Fellow Celiacs, I have been recently diagnosed with gluten sensitivity on Enterolab. Today, I have no idea what I did, but I am so fatigued, exhausted, head ache and can barely think. I wonder, is it only the gluten, can it get this bad overnight? No bathroom issues, but muscle, joint, face aches and pure exhaustion. I don't know how I keep a fast...

By the way your doggie, is VERY cute. I often wonder if I handle dry dog food, if that can affect my gluten? I feed them Beneful.... Anyways, I honestly think from gathering data and reading these type boards, that a lot of sick people have allergies to preservatives or chemicals. So going Gluten free sometimes makes them go organic, thus the relief...

Sure, I didn't do the gene part of the test ($$$) Fecal Antigliadin IgA 64 (normal range <10) Fecal Antitissue Transglutaminase IgA 33 (normal range <10) Quantitative Microscopic Fecal Fat Score-NORMAL <300 units That's odd. I keep worrying that it's a scam for them to make money. Maybe I don't want to admit I'm really...

Hi all, I got my results back today and I am gluten sensitive. Can I be SURE these tests are right? Are there false positives?

Hello, Thank you so much for your responses. I sent my sample in on 11/22 which was right before Thanksgiving, so not counting that Thurs, Friday and weekend, it took 8 days. I know its very hard waiting. I must have checked the web site for results a hundred times. hang in there. I never thought I would be so happy to find out that I am sick. But...

Hello everyone, I am fairly new to this board and have recently received my Enterolab results back. Can anyone help me interpret these? Fecal Antifliadin IgA 64 (normal range <10 units) Fecal Antitissue Transglutaminase IgA 33 units (normal range <10 units) Quantitative Microscopic Fecal Fat Score <300 units (normal range <300...

I cheated this weekend. I love chicken wings from Outback and I snapped ate about 6 of them. I feel bloated and my eyes and head hurt today. Can anyone give me the usual side effects of cheating and how long it takes to get it out of your system? Can I drink more water to remove it quicker?

Hi All, I am scheduled to have blood tests this Monday. If I eat Gluten all weekend, will it be back in my system enough to test Celiac?

Are 2 days with Gluten enough time for it to get back in my system and show up on blood tests? I hate to do this to myself, but I need to know. I want that documentation that says I AM SICK and it's not in my head like others have told me. It means so much to me and I"m scared that I DON'T have it actually. Anyone experience this?

Yes, I am also on anti-depressants-Paxil 20mg. So it could be that. But I'm still on them and eating gluten free and my teeth and jaws do feel a bit better....might be something.
