Hi all, long time no see.
Well, my results came back, and I am not a celiac. Turns out this entire time I've been mistaking lactose intolerance with gluten sensitivity... I've have tested this and I am indeed lactose intolerant. I just wanted to give you all an update and thank you for your support.
Cheers.
Upon further review, my 23andMe test also shows that I am very likely to be Lactose intolerant. This is very strange since I can eat lots of dairy products without any issues. I do know that eating cheese that has 0 sugar means that it is very low in lactose. Either way, something else I will investigate and probably speak to my Dr about after my Celiac test...
Hi, my genetic data from 23andMe shows HLA-DQ2.5 Gene: HLA-DQA1
Where would that put me on the above chart? I am having trouble understanding since mine has a 2.5
Thanks
Oooo, yeah I get that as well. Especially from the plastic medical tape. If I leave it on long enough I break out in hives. Not sure if that is Celiac related though.
Just preparing for when I get my results. If it comes back negative and lets say I have NCGS, would I be ok, occasionally eating foods that don't bother me? Since there is no damage being done to the intestines.
Is there anyone out there with NCGS that can also comment?
Thanks again! 🙂
Sorry to double post, there is no edit option. Lets say it comes back negative. What would you do after that? Keeping in mind the fact that I can eat most things and feel fine (to my surprise). If that's the case, maybe its something else all together?
Yeah I hear ya. To be honest though, aside from the episode I had today with those glazed doughnuts, I've been fine. No problems at all. Very strange...
Hi trents!
Thanks so much for the reply. That is great information. As for if I actually have celiac disease, I guess I will have to wait and see what my blood test comes back with. I know something has definitely been going on all these years. Question is, what. I think I will do the full 8 weeks to make sure I get an accurate reading on my blood test...
