    @DianeF hematocrit and red blood cell count are different than your hemoglobin levels, but you may want to ask your doctor if those levels were also checked. I am no expert on such issues, but I do have high hematocrit/red blood cell count and must do regular phlebotomies to treat it. High iron levels would not be a normal symptom of celiac disease...

    Is your hematocrit/red blood cell count high as well?

    We've had quite a few past posts on duodenitis, and you can find them here: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=Duodenitis&quick=1 You may want to consider a celiac disease blood panel as well to see if you're getting any gluten in your diet, but this article may also be helpful:

    Welcome! We've had others post on urticaria, and a magnesium supplement could help: others have posted about this as well: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=urticaria&quick=1

    Congratulations @Jtopolsk, and welcome to the forum! Did you do any special diets, in addition to being gluten-free?

    Be sure to also have your doctor test you for diabetes, as frequent urination could be a symptom, and Type 1 diabetes among celiacs is quite common.

    Wow, it's great that you are making so many things on your own. I'm not sure if you found our site's many recipes, but many are excellent: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ This one is really good:

    A few of us here use GliadinX whenever we eat outside our homes, they are a sponsor here, and their AN-PEP based enzymes have been shown in numerous studies to break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. Of course it's best to just not eat out, however, for many people this isn't a realistic option. This may...

    I'm surprised that care facilities haven't begun focusing on the gluten-free niche to grow their businesses, and it seems that things haven't changed very much since we published this article:

    Welcome to the forum! If something says gluten-free on the label it normally is, but the example of the walnuts you gave is pretty odd. If there is a real possibility of contamination in their packing facility then they should not be labelling it gluten-free. This article may be helpful: Did you ever get tested for celiac disease, or...

    I don't think it would be safe to use the same bread machine for both gluten and gluten-free breads.

    Hopefully you avoid eating in restaurants, as they can be a common source of contamination. This article may be helpful:

    Welcome to the forum and I'm sorry to hear that you got DH from your hair dye. I found this article which may be helpful: https://www.theceliacdiva.com/gluten-free-hair-dye/

    I did have blood in my stool as a symptom of celiac disease, and it was usually present in a puss-like substance. I do think you should get a blood test for celiac disease regardless of your biopsy results so you can rule out celiac disease, however, the results would not rule out non-celiac gluten sensitivity.
  21. Scott Adams
    It says they don’t use gluten ingredients, so it’s likely safe, but if this concerns you go with a brand that has “gluten-free” on its label.
  22. Scott Adams
    Based on the ingredients I could read on the bottle it looks like it is naturally gluten-free.
  23. Scott Adams
    Just like it takes time to heal after going gluten-free, it can take weeks to re-damage your villi, and one accident isn’t enough. If you ate more gluten for a longer time, I suspect your symptoms would return, as well as the damage.

    Yes, a piece of cardboard should not have any gluten in it, and even if it did would not be able to contaminate a box of gluten-free food to a level that it would end up over 20ppm. Cardboard is a very stable thing that does not shed particles unless it's very old and weathered.

    I've never had a follow up endoscopy after my initial one that was used to diagnose me, so none of my doctors in the last 26+ years have followed the protocol for treating celiac disease patients (all of my doctors have known that I have CD). Unfortunately we've learned via many other forum members here that my experience is the norm, rather than the exception...
