    Thanks for the update! This article will be helpful:

    Your symptoms all sound like they could be related to undiagnosed celiac disease, including your history of miscarriage and your diagnosis with Hashimoto's (in some cases this can be related to celiac disease, and if so, can improve on a gluten-free diet). It would be best to get a blood panel done for celiac disease before you go gluten-free.

    We've done a couple or articles on this topic, both are fairly old so it is possible that things have changed, but the article comments may also be helpful:

    @miguel54b I know EnteroLab well, and know the owner Dr. Kenneth Fine...he has written some articles for us: https://www.celiac.com/profile/81334-kenneth-fine-md/ Given your symptoms and genetic results I think you've found your answer!

    I know that this isn't directly related, more so with regard to brain fog as a symptom of celiac disease, but since we're often "pushing" vitamins/supplements on Celiac.com there is a lot of science happening now to support the multivitamin/minerals approach for everyone, and not just celiacs: Effects of cocoa extract and a multivitamin on cognitive...

    You didn’t mention the condition of your oven, how sensitive you are to gluten, whether you have celiac disease, etc., but unless the oven is used to bake breads and gluten-filled products regularly and is not clean it’s hard to imagine that this would contaminate your food to a dangerous level.

    We have quite a few bread recipes here, and some may meet your criteria: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-bread-recipes/ This is the go to recipe here, but complex:

    Besides carefully reading labels and trying to buy items with "gluten-free" or even better, certified gluten-free on them, I have two strategies to deal with such a situation. 1) I use a Nima Sensor and test the items I eat regularly (I think you're right about the spice mix--I tested some curcumin that I bought in an Indian store that did not say "gluten...

    I think you are correct that DGP IGA is highly sensitive for celiac disease, so I would take the positive test seriously, not matter what anyone tells you, and try to either get more tests done, or try a gluten-free diet.

    Since the OP did not mention anything about her son using cannabis, it's doubtful that they would need to worry about prodromal CHS. I think that if your son has already made a connection between eating bread and increased symptoms, then he should either pursue further testing for celiac disease, or simply go gluten-free for a few months to see if his...

    It's doubtful that smoking would spread any gluten to others, but it's not healthy for others to breathe in 2nd hand smoke, so hopefully he doesn't smoke inside around non-smokers. Even if cigarettes have tiny amounts of gluten in them, which is unknown at this point, it's doubtful that him touching them and then touching something else would create any issues...

    Sorry if you got multiple replies here...the forum had some technical issues today which hopefully are resolved.
  14. Scott Adams
    My take on: 1) For many celiacs, including myself, I noticed a very positive change in my symptoms within days--the most horrible symptom of nearly constant diarrhea quickly lessened right away, so I think your doctor is not correct in this assessment. Yes, it may take 1-2 years to fully recover and for many other symptoms to improve, but you should...

    It looks like you have one blood test positive for celiac disease, and more about that is here: "IgG anti-gliadin antibodies are more sensitive but are less specific markers for disease compared with IgA class antibodies. IgA anti-gliadin antibodies are less sensitive but are more specific. In clinical trials, the IgA antibodies have a specificity of...

    How did you feel when you were gluten-free? Did your symptoms improve? If so, perhaps just go gluten-free? You don't need a doctor to allow you to go gluten-free, but it is a good idea to let them know if you make this decision. At the very least it appears you may have celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity.

    We made updates to this article...thank you!

    At this point it's up to you what you'd like to do. You mentioned you have "White tongue, abdomen and back pain, bloating, tons of gas..." but your doctor does not think you have celiac disease, and the one positive test you had plus your symptoms tells me you could have non-celiac gluten sensitivity which ~10x more people have than celiac disease, and if...

    At least you have an answer now, and can go gluten-free and start recovering. Most issues with untreated celiac disease do resolve themselves on a gluten-free diet.
  24. Scott Adams
    Were you eating 2 slices of wheat bread or equivalent for at least 2 weeks before the endoscopy? If not your results could be a false negative. Did they take at least 4 samples? The positive blood test result and your symptoms still means you could have celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity (there is no test yet for this).
