How much weight have you gained back since your diagnosis? I will just throw this out there, but perhaps you could go the route of an RN, or even a RN medical practitioner? It sounds like you have enough science under your belt for that, but I don't know how much more school would be involved. In any case, it sounds like moving out of your current...

Disaccharide levels
Scott Adams replied to lhu7's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I'm not expert on this, but I believe something like a low carb, paleo diet would be needed if you are not willing to take enzymes to help you digest the sugars. So avoiding starches, especially processed ones, and sugar, and eat mostly meats, vegetables, nuts, etc. This site talks about what the levels mean in more detail: https://www.csidcares... -
I just follow the recommendations on the bottles for those that I recommended, As for the magnesium citrate, keep in mind that it could cause IBS symptoms until you get used to it. I can only take one per day with food, and it took me about a month of starting and stopping it to get used to it and eventually I had no IBS symptoms when taking it.

Celiac and beer
Scott Adams replied to SaraVegan's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Welcome to the forum @CAS7! You are correct that many commercial beers may be naturally gluten-free, as they are filtered using very fine membranes for maximum clarity and consistency, and other people have reported similar stories here. In the gluten-removed beer category, we still recommend beers like Omission, which use AN-PEP enzymes during the fermenting... -
Welcome to the forum, and I am really sorry that you are going through this with your family, and that they are not more supportive. If you've been diagnosed with celiac disease your first degree relatives have a ~44% chance of also having it, so they should also be tested, although it sounds like any of them getting tested would be unlikely. My thought here...

dh Shampoo to heal DH on my scalp
Scott Adams replied to RBnorth66's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
One other thing, have you checked to make sure that all your skin and hair care products, cosmetics, medicines, etc., are gluten-free? It seems that people who have DH are especially sensitive, and some react to gluten on the skin. Also, many people with DH need to avoid iodine as it can also trigger flare ups. It's in sea food, salt that is fortified... -
Alkaline Water
Scott Adams replied to StrongerThanCeliac's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm not sure why anyone would need alkaline water, and one brand of it has been associated with at least one death, and numerous cases of acute non-viral hepatitis illness: https://www.fda.gov/food/outbreaks-foodborne-illness/investigation-acute-non-viral-hepatitis-illnesses-real-water-brand-alkaline-water-march-2021 Regular water is safe. -

If @RMJ is correct, I believe that you can simply take Lactaid enzymes to help you break down the lactose in dairy, and if that doesn't help going dairy-free would be best. -

welcome to the forum! You did not mention whether or not you have celiac disease. If so it is possible that it could affect certain things in a blood test, but this would not be typical. Certainly having elevated white and red blood cells would not be indicative of celiac disease by itself, but I could not tell by your post why you suspect celiac disease...

The blood tests do look negative, but that would not necessarily rule out non-Celiac gluten sensitivity, and since you have said that she has a horrible reaction each time she eats gluten, that would be my suspicion. I would try a gluten-free diet for a few months to see if those symptoms go away, and if so it’s likely that she has non-celiac gluten sensitivity. ...

Gluten reaction?
Scott Adams replied to cb1988's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
if you do have non-celiac gluten sensitivity then a gluten-free diet should actually improve your symptoms, and make a lot of things better even with breast-feeding. The key would be to replace the calories with healthy ones and make sure you are supplementing so that you don’t have vitamin and mineral deficiencies, and you probably might want to consult w...
