    There is no scientific evidence that celiac disease can be reversed. There is some evidence that if treated for a prolonged time period with a gluten-free diet that it can go into remission, and then it may take months or even years to manifest should one start eating gluten again.

    I would not be sorry that you got the covid vaccine, as it may have already, or could save your life. Getting the vaccine isn't the same as getting the disease, and we've not seen any studies linking the vaccine with triggering celiac disease.

    Our goal here isn't to exacerbate any tribalism, but to teach celiacs to recognize common, negative attitudes and behavior towards those on a gluten-free diet. We see this happen over and over here, and this is an example of what can happen, even within a family:

    The usual place to start is to look closely at your diet to be sure that it, including medications, toothpaste, lotions, etc., are 100% gluten-free. The arthritic symptoms you described are often linked to those with undiagnosed celiac disease, or those with poorly controlled celiac disease. Assuming your diet is in order and you're not getting any...

    Another brand of good pasta is Schar, but they may be harder to find.

    @Oldturdle the approach you described here may work for you, or an anti-social person, however, it won't work very well for the vast majority of gluten sensitive people who wish to continue to have positive social interactions with others after going gluten-free. This series of articles addresses many issues that gluten-free people face on a daily basis,...

    It's very likely that your doctor will prescribe a medication to treat your osteoporosis, but until then you might want to find "Citracal" which is available at Costco in the USA: https://www.citracal.com/ It contains Vitamin D, Calcium, and other minerals designed to help you absorb more calcium.

    Gaining weight could be normal for some people with celiac disease who are in recovery, and this is often caused by the recovery of damaged villi, so you are now absorbing nutrients better. Some people with celiac disease are actually overweight because they feel like they are starving all the time, and they actually are, so they over eat to compensate. To...

    For what it's worth, my daughter who is officially gluten sensitive and not a diagnosed celiac (high antibodies but just below the cut off for celiac disease, thus never did a biopsy) had one major symptom: the feeling that food was getting stuck in her esophagus. It bothered her so much that she decided to go gluten-free, and her symptoms went away. I believe...

    I looked at a few of their products and they do seem to be naturally gluten-free, but highly processed with tons of ingredients. They are made by Kraft Foods, which is very good about disclosing allergens. I did not see "Contains Wheat" on any I looked at: https://www.justcrackanegg.net/

    I'm sorry to hear that you're still having issues and had to go to the ER. Are you still eating the Kate Farms’s nutritional shakes each day? If so, I really think you should change this up and try making your own shakes from scratch, switching to whole foods you prepare, etc, and keeping a food diary. It's possible you have a separate intolerance t...

    I'm not aware of the Great Value brand having an issue with cross contamination, but there are certainly lots of other brands of dates that are unlikely to be contaminated. For example, dates from Arizona and California are grown in the desert where no wheat is grown for hundreds of miles: https://oasisdate.com/

    Some people have other sensitivities, for example to legumes. It's pretty unlikely that the frozen vegetables or the chicken would contain any gluten, but it's not impossible.

    Hello Emile and welcome to the forum. It's possible that your rash could be gluten-related if you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, but it would not be in an area that is typical for dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin condition associated with celiac disease. The only way to be sure would be to see a dermatologist about it (recommended)...

    Hi Sharon, welcome to the forum! I’m sorry to hear about your melanoma diagnosis. Regarding your celiac test results, it looks like part of the scan you posted got cut off and I’m not sure I am reading all of it. Is it possible for you to post a full scan because I can’t see the whole thing here?
  21. Scott Adams
    You should ask them how they are made because my daughter made some at home and the recipe called for her to dip the cheese in egg first, then flour before frying it (she used a gluten-free flour).

    Welcome to the forum! It seems you have at least part of the answer already: gluten sensitivity. Everything you’ve described leaves little doubt that she should not be eating any gluten. Whether or not you want to go down the difficult road to screen her again for celiac disease is up to you, but no matter the results her outcome would likely not change: ...

    Welcome to the forum! I did a quick search of our site for "exercise intolerance" and found a few hits: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q="exercise intolerance"&updated_after=any&sortby=relevancy but I admit that I don't know too much about it. It does seem possible that if you had celiac disease it could cause malabsorption of nutrients, and cause...
