  2. Others here have reported nightmares as a symptom of celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=Nightmares&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy Since your symptoms are so severe and obvious, how important to you is an official diagnosis? Perhaps you should just stay gluten-free? Approximately...
  3. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...
  4. This should be a safe level for you once per week, but if you are super sensitive, or have DH, you may want to only partake in the wine (you may also want to ask if you can drink from a separate chalice). You may also find this article of interest:
  5. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free...
  6. So just to clarify, celiac disease is an autoimmune disease rather than an allergy, and you mentioned that you had allergy tests done. Can you share with us your celiac disease blood test results along with the reference range for a positive test? Also, did you get the results back for your DH biopsy? Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac...

  8. For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes:
  9. Considering how ill your daughter seems to get from eating gluten you may want to weigh the importance of an official celiac disease diagnosis against the potential health issues she would need to endure to get a formal diagnsis. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test f...

  12. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
  13. Here is a category of study summaries on the relationship of Type 1 diabetes and celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/diabetes-and-celiac-disease/ This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that...
  14. In general if you see "gluten-free" on a label in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, etc., it does mean that the food is safe for those with celiac disease, and it does NOT mean that there is 19ppm gluten in it, as some people might lead you to believe. Whenever a company detects gluten in the 5-19ppm (most tests can't accurately go below this level...
  15. It is a facial mask? It says "Most people don’t know there are cures that don’t involve running to a doctor or going completely gluten free!" so clearly this is totally false information and they are trying to take your money.

  21.

  22. Do you consume oats? Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You...
