That is an interesting discovery, and thanks for sharing it! I would imagine that anyone having a DH flare will be happy to discover the BenGay approach.

Is Bud Light Seltzer Gluten-Free?
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
Nice, and their reply gives us a bit more info about this. -
It sounds like you don't wish to eat gluten for 8 weeks to get tested for celiac disease, but have symptoms of gluten sensitivity. It also sounds like your diet may not be 100% gluten-free, and whether you have celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, your diet needs to be 100% gluten-free. Here is an older article on geographic tongue, and how it might...

Welcome to the forum! Did you eat gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your blood tests? I ask because if you didn't then the test results might be a false negative. Regarding weight gain, if you lost a lot of weight due to celiac disease, and then went gluten-free, there is a good chance that you will gain it back as your gut heals. Some people who...

Heartburn
Scott Adams replied to penguin11's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
The gluten-free diet alone may not fix all of your symptoms, and the first step for you would be to re-check your diet to make sure that it is 100% gluten-free, this includes medications, supplements, cosmetics, lotions, etc. If you eat outside your home, for example in restaurants, that is a very common source of contamination. The next step would be... -

What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Celiac Disease Basics
Possibly, as diarrhea and loose stools are definitely symptoms, however, many celiacs have little to no symptoms. -
Is DiGiorno Gluten Free Pizza Really Gluten-Free?
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Additional Concerns
Guest Laura, you need to back this comment up, as I've never heard before of rennet as a source of gluten. If this were true it would cause nearly all cheeses to not be gluten-free. There is no known reason to add gluten to cheese, and in fact doing so would likely ruin the cheese. -
PS - I think it goes without saying that it might be a good time to discuss the possible use of statins with your doctor, as they can slow down, and possibly decrease plaque in arteries.

Any advice for severe constipation?
Scott Adams replied to SuzieGetAClue's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Welcome to the forum! Have you tried taking magnesium citrate (I use the Nature Made brand available at Costco)? I ask because when I began taking it I noticed that it definitely relieved constipation. Drinking coffee also helps. Also, if you are getting too much fiber, too little fiber, or not the enough of the right type of fiber, can cause issues... -
Is Bud Light Seltzer Gluten-Free?

This is the source which indicated that in Canada, Bud Light Selzer may contain malt. We included this info in our article as a precaution: Open Original Shared Link -

Good experience at The Olive Garden
Scott Adams replied to Oldturdle's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Good call on the enzymes beforehand. Shortly after Olive Garden launched their "gluten-free" menu I went there and had pasta, and ended up getting sick. This was long before I used AN-PEP enzymes, but when I called the manager they said that they cooked all the pasta in the same water, otherwise it would take an extra 10-15 minutes to get me the "gluten-free... -
As usual, these look amazing...thank you for sharing another great recipe!!

Many gluten-free replacement products, unfortunately, are loaded with carbs, salt, sugar, and gums like xanthan gum. Xanthan gum causes IBS-like symptoms in many people: There are companies making whole grain and sprouted grain gluten-free products that might agree more with you, but you need to seek them out.

@knitty kitty I hope you are doing well! -
I've found it's definitely best to ask questions and keep following up with doctors about your health, otherwise you can just slip through the cracks. This section has the related disorder summaries we've done of various studies: /celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/ and this sub-section has those about heard disease...

Childhood diagnosis
Scott Adams replied to Chrissy308's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Welcome to the forum! It sounds like you are still eating gluten, is that correct? If so, now is the time to get another blood test, before you go gluten-free, as the test requires you to be eating gluten for 6-8 weeks beforehand. -
I agree, learning to read labels should be the first step, and once you can do that there isn't a need for an app.

Welcome to the forum @HLM, and it's interesting to hear your story, and that it took eliminating additional foods for your iron and ferritin levels to improve.

I agree that it's probably not related, and interestingly when I was in the process of getting all sorts of tests done to figure out whether or not I had celiac disease, they did determine that my spleen was on the highest size of the normal range. I'm not sure what that means, but I do have an issue with a chronic high red blood cell count and high hematocrit...
