THOSE SNEAKY CELIAC INVADERS
Scott Adams replied to Yvonne (Vonnie) Mostat, RN's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Thank you for the update on oats, and we've got lots of articles on oats here for anyone who wants to dive into this further: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/ -
I've been reading posts here for nearly 2 decades, and I've not heard of a non-itchy DH rash. I suppose it is possible, but you may want to get a dermatologist to look at it for a proper diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease?

Easy gluten free pizza
Scott Adams replied to Oldturdle's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Yes, and we make corn tortilla pizzas all the time at my house. We actually fry them in an iron skillet with a lid on the stove top in some oil, and they come out crispy on the bottom. Costco has two packs of large, frozen prepared pizzas and their price is hard to beat, but they are still a lot more expensive than the tortilla option. -
A gluten challenge
Scott Adams replied to carlisima's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The protocol for a blood test is to eat 2 slices of wheat bread a day for 6-8 weeks, and 2 weeks for an endoscopy: -
Lab results fluctuations
Scott Adams replied to elm1214's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I think the fact that you had elevated levels could mean that you are in the non-celiac gluten sensitive category, and you may want to consider trying a gluten-free diet. Also, were you eating ~2 slices of wheat bread worth of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before the test? If not, the results could be lower than they would have been if you had followed... -
Crazy Fatigue
Scott Adams replied to Flyttfag3l's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
If you have gluten sensitivity or celiac disease eating gluten can definitely cause fatigue. How did the biopsy go? You posted this on July 4th, which is a holiday in the USA, so it looks like this slipped through the cracks. -
Advice please
Scott Adams replied to Ellawells's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues. If you eat in restaurants, or include gluten-free oats in your diet, you may want to cut both out to see if that helps. This article may also be helpful: -
Some people with celiac disease get more sensitive to it over time after they have fully eliminated it, but others don't. I think this can vary a lot from person to person. Ideally you'll avoid gluten going forward so you won't have to find out whether or not your tolerance to it decreases or increases, but probably the only way to determine that would...

Celiac and Gastroparesis
Scott Adams replied to lhu7's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Is it possible your diet may somehow include gluten contamination? If you eat outside your home, especially in restaurants, this is likely the case. This article may be helpful: -
PAXLOVID
Scott Adams replied to kels35's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You can also search here to find ingredients used in medications: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/ -
It's an interesting connection, and points to niacin deficiency as a possible trigger for leaky gut, and perhaps even celiac disease in those who are genetically susceptible.

GAPS diet
Scott Adams replied to Mckenzie111's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I just read more about this diet: https://www.gapsdiet.com/ It sounds a bit like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which others here have tried: It does look like others here have tried the GAPS Diet, and here is a search for that: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q="GAPS diet"&quick=1&updated_after=any&sortby=relevancy -
Psoriasis v. Dermatitis herpetiformis
Scott Adams replied to FunShine's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
Yes, people who have posted on this forum have been misdiagnosed before, and some people have had both. Here is a search if you'd like to go through some past posts: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=Psoriasis Dermatitis herpetiformis&type=forums_topic&search_and_or=and -
Some bouillons actually contain gluten. Unfortunately I could not find specific info on their site: https://alimentsparador.com/en/our-products/ They do have "Reduced-salt and gluten-free bouillons," but that implies that not all of theirs are gluten-free. Have you called them? Can you post the ingredients?

I don't take PPI's, and only took them for a month or so way back at the time when I was diagnosed over 25 years ago. I'm a moderate drinker and stick mostly to red wine...I take magnesium citrate, thiamine, B-complex, etc., regularly, so none of this explains away celiac disease. Yes, I'm sure that when I've ingested gluten that it triggers issues, and it...

PS: I do believe that Pellagra could be a stressor event that might trigger celiac disease, and Pellagra may be more common than doctors realize.

Remember that stress in medical terminology is not necessarily equated with mental stress, although it can be, it includes anything like a virus or other outside things that may create stress within the body’s immune system. I disagree 100% that celiac disease isn’t a lifelong condition because I was formally diagnosed with celiac disease over 25 ye...

Also, given that you have celiac disease, and you've already made the connection between your daughter's symptoms and gluten, I am not sure that it would make sense to go through with a full 6-8 week gluten challenge in order to try to confirm a celiac disease diagnosis. If her tests turned out to be negative, would you continue feeding her gluten? As @trents...

This study focuses on the effects of the low FODMAP diet, and not celiac disease. As far as I know, not too much research has been done in this regard on the low FODMAP diet.

Welcome to the forum! At only 18 months old, I'm not sure how well the blood tests will do to detect celiac disease. Even the link @trents shared mentions that blood tests are for 3 years old and older, but I believe in children this blood test is important to get as the tTG tests don't work as well in children: Deamidated gliadin peptide (DGP IgA and...

Long haul covid from celiac disease
Scott Adams replied to Georgeann's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Welcome to the forum. Celiac.com has summarized all the major research that has been done on covid-19 and celiac disease, and, so far at least, the research indicates that people with celiac disease are not at a higher risk of getting covid-19 or severe covid-19 compared to those without celiac disease. Of course, the amount of research done in this...
