  1. Be sure to keep eating gluten daily, at least 2 slices of wheat bread's worth, for 6-8 weeks before blood tests, and 2 weeks before a biopsy, otherwise you could get false negative results, or "weak" positive, which is still positive by the way.
  2. If you are getting an endoscopy to test for celiac disease you need to eat at least 2 slices worth of wheat bread daily for at least 2 weeks before the test, otherwise you may end up with false-negative results. If you are this sensitive to gluten, can I as why you need to get this test? Why not just go gluten-free?
  3. This is definitely interesting, and we did a summary on this a while back (below). It probably makes sense for anyone with celiac disease and ongoing symptoms to go dairy-free for a while to see if it helps.
  4. They should be naturally gluten-free if that is all the ingredients say, and there are not allergen warnings.
  5. Yes, and this was brought up so often that we even did an article on the topic! Here are some searches for past posts: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q="sharp pain"&quick=1&type=forums_topic&updated_after=any&sortby=relevancy&search_and_or=and https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=fluttering&type=forums_topic&quick=1...
  6. I always point people to this bread recipe, and see the comments as well, as it was developed by a scientist:
  7. I'm sorry to hear about your ongoing symptoms, and your symptoms certainly sound consistent with gluten sensitivity. If you have your full blood test results, including the reference ranges for positive, please share them. Note that ~10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity rather than celiac disease, and unfortunately they have not yet developed...
  8. Feel free to share your test results here, along with the reference ranges for positive. If you had a single positive test for celiac disease then you could have celiac disease. The normal process if you get a positive blood test would be to get an endoscopy to confirm celiac disease, and you would need to keep eating gluten until all testing is completed...
  9. There are many Progresso soups that are gluten-free, and they can be fount at Target and other stores.
  10. I am sorry to hear about your ulcer, and ongoing symptoms. Has your diet been 100% gluten-free? Do you eat out at restaurants. If so, you may still be getting trace amounts in your diet. To be retested:
  11. This is a good article, thanks for sharing it! We've posted some summaries of studies that show that up to 90% of people who eat in restaurants regularly get contamination, and I suspect that a certain percentage of foods with "gluten-free" on the label are also contaminated, so the reason why many people continue to have symptoms could be that they...
  12. Yes, as very sad day indeed! What an amazing reign, and life!! 96, that's amazing! King Charles has some big shoes to fill, and he seems to have grown up quite a lot since his days with Princess Dianna. I hope he can live up to his new role!
  13. They seem to be giving you bad info, and this is too bad. For example, if you are positive for any of the genetic markers for celiac disease, you can get celiac disease. It really just depends on which markers are positive which determines your overall risk of developing it. You need to eat gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood test, preferably at...
  14. It looks like an amazing place, and it's great to know that they offer so many gluten-free foods in their markets!
  15. It looks like it is naturally Gluten-Free but not labeled GF: https://www.kroger.com/p/kroger-tomato-paste/0001111081633
  16. I can only refer you to the article...are they listed there?
  17. This is ironic because that group claims that Cheerios and other GF cereals aren't safe (which they stopped claiming at some point, or at least never followed up with a blog they said they would do on it) because they believed that General Mill's patented technology to remove wheat kernels would lead to hot spots. So far I've not heard of any "hot spots"...
  18. Both should be naturally gluten-free, but double check their ingredients before you buy them.
  19. Wow! They may have a serious manufacturing issue!
  20. Iodine can also trigger the DH rash in some people. Many with DH need to reduce their iodine intake, which means seafood, seaweed, iodized salt, etc.
  21. Welcome to the forum, and the thread you replied to is 5 years old, so you may not get responses from the original posters. I'm not sure what you mean by the above statement about alcohol content and COVID, could you clarify? It seems you have some sort of alcohol intolerance, but you would need to explain this more clearly, as I'm not sure that...
  22. Is there any chance you're still getting trace amounts of gluten in your diet...perhaps if you eat outside your home?
  23. If you have been eating gluten daily you could also order an online blood test from https://imaware.health I think you know that many of your symptoms, including possibly your Hashimoto's thyroiditis, could diminish greatly on a gluten-free diet, but it would be best to do any testing for celiac disease before you go gluten-free. If you do have celiac...
  24. If you eat at restaurants it is likely you're still getting regular trace amounts of gluten, and if so, this can definitely cause "brain fog" symptoms.
