Well that definitely doesn't sound like fun. I tell you what, after 10 years of having to be careful about foods, and eliminating more and more foods from my diet (which gets really old), while dealing with recurring CFS, I am nearly at my limit and I'm now looking into solutions beyond just gluten-free diet, which in my case is not sufficient.

Yes, I am very careful with my diet and I screen pretty much everything I eat. I stick with already-screened brands.

As a side note, it seems that medical science has evolved in the past 5-6 years regarding Celiac Disease, and I am now catching up. It seems that anything that disrupts the microbiome sufficiently enough can--in genetically susceptible individuals--lead to Celiac Disease. I have been reading now that antibiotics, excessive simple carbohydrates such as refined...

I mostly eat healthy. My diet has varied over the past 10 years but mostly consisted of meals I cooked at home made from scratch. Ingredients I used over the years include (not in order): non-wheat grains such as teff, sorghum, millet, and eggs, butter, cheese, some milk, meat (poultry, red meat, but very little processed meat), gluten-free baked bread (mostly...

10 years ago, when I did the Celiac panel, I also did other tests that showed the following results (this is before gluten-free diet): Antithyroglobulin antibody: 177 (ref: 0-0.9) Thyroid peroxidase antibody: 10 (ref: 0-34) Reverse T3: 34 (ref: 9.2-24.1) A1C normal Vitamin D, magnesium, iron normal T3, T4, and TSH were...

Yes, I am still consuming dairy products. I eat butter and cheese. I drink milk sometimes. I rarely ever seem to have a reaction to dairy products, but perhaps its time to drop those too. I did stop dairy in 2018 when I was doing AIP and felt better. AIP / elimination diet does not permanently heal our guts. I did AIP in 2018 (most of that entire year...

I forgot to mention that I am very, very careful with my diet. I cook all my meals at home and have been for 10 years. I screen my ingredients and only buy from trusted sources that I have inquired with already. I screen my supplements for gluten. I never cheat. And subsequent Celiac Panel tests have always come back with numbers like this: 9 years ago...

Progressing: a disease that is getting worse over time, not better. 10 years ago, I had a Celiac panel done. The results: Deamidated Gliadin ABs, IgA: 21 (ref: 0-19) ttG IgA: 28 (ref: 0-3) Immunoglobulin A, serum: 137 (ref: 91-414) I did not have an intestinal endoscopy; I never did that, so I do not know what the condition...
