Thanks for the info! I'm going to pass it onto my dad. I have been telling him just go on the diet and see how you feel, but he's stubborn and always wants to believe what the doctors tell him. At least where I live, I think the doctor's are way behind on Celiac and gluten sensitivities. I went through the Enterolabs because I was frustrated after...

I'm 45 and I'm in perimenopause. My cycle is all over the place too. I know this is getting into a whole other topic, but for the past 1 1/2 years I have been using bioidentical hormones (natural) to help with menopause. When your in menopause most of the symptoms you get are because of progesterone deficencies. It's all about balancing the hormones and...

If I remember right it took several weeks (3-4).

My dad was tested for Celiac first with the blood panel, which came back positive. His ttG was positive and a high number. Then he went and had the biopsy. They took 7 biopsies and they said it was negative. Does this mean he doesn't have Celiac? I just don't understand these tests. How can you be positive on one thing and negative on the other. ...

It took me 4 months before I started to feel better. I have been sick for 25 years. It takes time to heal. Most people I have talked to including some experts have said give it 6 months to a year. I also had to get off of dairy and I think I may have some other food intolerances. Hang in there.

I have been doing some research on this IgG testing and it's confusing because there is so much controversy on it. Some say it's not accurate and does not mean that you have food intolerances. Some doctor ordered tests through York Labs under several different names and stated that the tests all came back different proving to him that IgG testing is not...

Does anyone know if there is any type of food intolerance testing? I know food intolerance is different than food allergies. I know allergist only typically test for the food allergies. I have heard about IgG testing, but is there any lab around that does this in the U.S. and is it accurate? I feel I have a number of food intolerances besides the gluten...

I have YET to meet a good GI! I have fired every one I have gone too. The first one had me get my gallbladder removed at the age of 21, which it didn't need to come out. So now I live with not having a gallbladder the rest of my life, which causes problems. Here's a good one for you.....my last GI suggested I change the type of BUTTER I was eating. He...

Has anyone out there discovered that they also have issues with fructose? I just read by doing some research on the internet that it is common with some people with Celiac to also have issues with fructose. I noticed years ago that fructose seem to be a problem for me before I ever realized that gluten was an issue. I also have a problem with casein. ...

I have taken digestive enzymes off and on for several years now. I was looking at trying a new digestive enzyme by Enzymedica and I came across one of their products, it's called GlutenEase. I was just wondering if anyone out there has hard about it or has tried it? Here is the link Open Original Shared Link Now I certainly wouldn't use that and think...

I took Mannatech's Ambrotose for months and so did my father. We did not notice any difference in our health. I could not afford to keep buying this product especially with no results.

Hi Everyone, Can anyone out there tell me if they also suffer from peripheal neuropathy along with having celiac disease? My father has suffered from peripheal neuropathy for the past 30 years and it's from unknown origins. He does not have diabetes. His mother had it, his brother and sister have it along with his sister being diagnosed with IBS. ...

I am reading Dr. Green's book now and have read other books besides doing research on the internet. I was diagnosed through Enterolab like several others on this board. I have fired many GI's in my area and was not going to do anymore invasive tests like the biopsy. I've been through enough over the past 25 years! The way I understand it is if you take...

I have also suffered from gastritis for the past 2 years. Sometimes that drives me more crazy than my other symptoms. I get so tired of feeling that pain in my gut. It's strange because at times I won't have it for months and then it flares up and I have it for months on end. I have taken licorice root tablets and that helps. I will have to try the papaya...

Thanks for the info. I'm doing okay with the diet from doing my own research and reading a number of books. I just thought it would be nice to be able to meet with others for support and different ideas or tips on eating this way. I have noticed that eating gluten free the items are not enriched with vitamins like your other grain products, which concerns...
