  1. Since your original biopsy results indicate celiac disease your doctor should have made that diagnosis back then, and you should have gone gluten-free at that time. It's a total mystery why they would not diagnose you based on your biopsy results, which, especially at that time, was the gold standard of diagnosis. PS - To do any further testing for celiac...
  2. Please share your clinical trial experiences with us if you can!
  3. Yes, this is mentioned in the article.
  4. Soy sauce can definitely contain gluten, so consider brining your own gluten-free version if you want to eat out and not miss it (more and more places now have a GF version on hand). If possible, please let us know the brand of rice wine your Japanese restaurant uses which contains gluten. I'm not trying to argue, but am only concerned about possibly...
  5. Most ELF products are gluten-free, but since all are not, we removed them.
  6. Let us know how things go, and good luck!
  7. These articles may be helpful:
  8. For those in the non-celiac gluten sensitivity spectrum, I definitely believe that there is a very wide spectrum of symptoms and health issues associated with eating gluten, and migraine headaches have been shown in numerous studies to be related to those with untreated celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases...
  9. Here is a link you could bookmark, but to me it sounds like you need to upgrade the browser on your device to the newest version: https://www.celiac.com/notifications/
  10. It certainly could be, but the only way to know for sure would be to get a celiac disease blood panel, and to do that you would need to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed. Here is some more info about the blood tests:
  11. If you could share your blood test results, along with the reference ranges it would be helpful, otherwise we can't really comment on them. Were you eating gluten daily until the blood tests were done? If not you could get false-negative results. Also, keep in mind that around 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease...
  12. This symptom has been reported in this forum pretty often, but like most symptoms it will usually go away after a while on a gluten-free diet (sometimes it takes 1 year or more, but it depends on how strict your diet is). Some of the older posts on this topic might be helpful as well: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=emptying&quick=1&...
  13. It's not clear from your post whether or not you're gluten-free, but clearly if you have celiac disease and are not 100% gluten-free that would be your first step to avoid diarrhea. You may also need to eliminate oats, as some celiacs cannot tolerate them. If you are gluten-free and still have this issue, perhaps you have additional food intolerance...
  14. I'm a taco expert! First, be sure to get corn tortillas that are labelled "gluten-free," and I use Guerrero or Mission brand. Heat a skillet (I use an iron one) until it is very hot, then add about a teaspoon of oil (I use light olive oil for frying), and throw the tortilla on it and move it around to soak up the oil evenly. Watch the tortilla closely...
  15. Celiac disease causes dental enamel issues in many who are undiagnosed, and if you have it and are not gluten-free while your teeth are developing it can cause specific defects, and here are some research summaries on this topic: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=enamel&quick=1&type=cms_records2&search_in=titles It's unclear what happens...
  16. Welcome to the forum! Just to be clear, you do not have celiac disease but may have gluten sensitivity and are thinking of going grain-free. Going grain-free does usually make it hard for you to get enough carbohydrates, and there are many other gluten-free grains you could try if your goal is only to eliminate gluten for a few months to see if it helps relieve...
  17. I've never seen a rice wine or rice vinegar that contains gluten. Also, I think the topic was Thai food, which has far less gluten possibilities when prepared traditionally. Fish sauce is widely used, and some fish sauces do contain gluten. There are Asian fermented grain vinegars that may contain gluten, just like there are in Western cooking. Also...
  18. I agree that this situation could be fixed relatively easily, at least in comparison to the food industry. Simply requiring all pill form prescription meds to be gluten-free, and free of the top 8 allergens would be a good start.
  19. I wonder how many people with eating disorders have undiagnosed celiac disease or other food intolernaces? It would make an interesting study. My guess is that the rate of celiac disease among those with eating disorders is measurably greater than in the non-celiac population.
  20. Traditional Thai food is one of the most naturally gluten-free foods that there is, however, like all cuisines, there are definitely things you need to know and watch out for.
  21. I've heard that Ben-Gay cream helps, but since I've not had DH issues in many years never tried it myself.
  22. My wife is Asian and I always manage to find something gluten-free at Chinese or other Asian restaurants, but just in case, I also take a couple of GliadinX capsules (full disclosure--they are a sponsor here which isn't why I'm posting this) before I eat out anywhere. AN-PEP enzymes like those in GliandinX have been shown in multiple studies to break down...
  23. True, but your can order pure psyllium powder and that is the only ingredient, just make sure is says gluten-free on the package.
