    Since Chex Cinnamon Cereal is labelled gluten-free, it's unlikely to have gluten in it. If this were the case I can assure you that they would quickly become the subject of a class action lawsuit. Is it possible that you are reacting to another ingredient, perhaps even the cinnamon?

    Today we've run an update to this article to address some of the comments brought up here.

    Welcome, and I don't think anyone here would recommend that you cheat on your diet, however, if you do consider an AN-PEP enzyme like GliadinX (they are an advertiser here, but I'm not paid to push their products), which may at least help to some degree. I think you know already that the best path to both physical and mental health for you is going to be...

    Cavendish Farms Corporation of Dieppe, New Brunswick, Canada, is recalling 441 cases of its 42.3 oz packages of Original Hash Brown Patties because they may contain undeclared wheat. People who have allergies to wheat or celiac disease run the risk of serious allergic reaction if they consume this product. The recalled Original Hash Brown Patties were...

    The Salsa Texan of Flower Mound, Texas is voluntarily recalling its regular and burrito sized packages of Coconut Flour Tortillas because they may contain undeclared wheat. People who have allergies to wheat, run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products. The recalled tortillas were distributed nationwide...

    This is a great chart!

    I just want mention that you could have celiac disease because you do have one positive blood test: Gliadin (Deaminated) Antibody IgA POSITIVE 18.3 (normal range <=14.9) combined with relatives who also have it. All of your symptoms seem consistent and a gluten-free diet may also help your liver issues balance out if it is related to that. Based...

    Some experts believe that NCGS is a precursor, in some cases, to celiac disease...like a warning sign. I would like to see more research on this, but if true, the best approach would be total elimination so you never reach a point where you end up with full blown celiac disease.

    Interestingly one of my first symptoms that I can recall with a similar pain and bloating in my lower right side, very similar to what you've described. This symptom alone could be many things, however, but this combined with your other symptoms tells me that it would be worth getting screened for celiac disease if that is possible. It would mean eating ...

    You have one very positive test for celiac disease (this test is not for NCGS), so it is likely that you have celiac disease and need to go gluten-free. The normal protocol would be to follow up this positive test with an endoscopy to check for villi damage associated with celiac disease.

    @Wheatwacked This is an interesting chart, can you explain this "Celiac High Risk" column? Who does this test?

    I just want to insert those images into this thread permanently for any future visitors:

    Welcome to the forum! Since you've been gluten-free for four months you can't undergo screening for celiac disease now, so there is no way to be sure whether or not you have it unless you are willing to eat gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before doing a celiac disease blood screening. Given that your symptoms get worse when you eat gluten it seems possible and...

    At the time our article ran Carol Kacinski was listed as the only officer and President of Simply Gluten Free Inc.. As of March 17, 2022 the officer of Simply Gluten Free Inc. has been changed to "Colin Kacinski," and Carol's name has been removed. Does this mean that Carol Kacinski has resigned as its President?

    I just want to emphasize what @trents brought up, that ~10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) than do celiac disease, but there currently isn't a test for it. The treatment is the same, a gluten-free diet for life. So you could fall into this group if you don't have actual celiac disease.

    Thank you for sharing this, and it could definitely explain the issue you had with their product. In the USA such mislabeling could result in a product recall, so I'm also really surprised at their lack of accountability on their own gluten-free claim.

    Celiac.com did verify that Open Original Shared Link via a Florida corporation search, so you are not correct about her not being the owner. Feel free to click the link to see the documents yourself.

    For allergies normally hives develop fairly soon after consumption of the offending item, but I'm not an allergy expert. It might make sense to eliminate one allergen at a time for a week, for example corn, and then add it back. If the hives go away during that week it seems like you might have your culprit, especially if they come back when you eat it again...

    Celiac.com will continue covering this and other stories that are relevant to the celiac disease community, and will follow this article up with any future news on the disposition of this case.

    I also think that it is very important for you to keep a food diary, to see if there is something that might be triggering it. Look at the top 8 allergens and monitor those in your diet. I will assume that this isn't DH, and that they are hives due to allergies, not celiac disease.

    We did publish our summary of the study I mentioned, which indicates that in children with 5x positive antibody levels there is no need for a biopsy: I realize that doctors may not be up to date on the very latest research, however, there is no reason that you can't be up on it. Of course it is your call whether or not you'd like a confirmation of celiac...
