Biopsy results over the phone
Scott Adams replied to Kelly1920's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
This list is good for the USA, and good for most things in the UK. I think the biggest differences would be "flavorings" and "natural flavorings" which may be different there, as well as just "starch." In the USA starch is always corn starch, but in the UK can be wheat I believe: This article is helpful as well: -
Need a separate area to dry pots/pans?
Scott Adams replied to deesgustang's topic in Super Sensitive People
I would just dry them with my own clean dish towels, then put them away...obviously others should not borrow and use them. -
Some describe this "dizzy" symptom as vertigo, and I had this symptom as well. It let to panic attacks at times. The good news is that a few months after going gluten-free this symptom went away.

Gluten Exposure Common, Silent and Ongoing in Most Celiac Patients
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Additional Concerns
Mainly because biopsy diagnosis has been considered the "gold standard" for the past 25+ years. This is changing, but slowly, and in 20 years biopsies to confirm celiac disease will likely be a think of the past for most celiacs. -
It can seem like a curse at first, but knowing about this so you can properly deal with it is actually a blessing. This article might be helpful:

It's definitely something to be concerned about, and can be caused by celiac disease. You should definitely talk with your doctor about this, and consider getting screened for celiac disease, if you haven't already. Unfortunately getting screened would mean a gluten challenge, so you'd need to eat gluten daily for ~6 weeks before the tests are done.

Diagnosis
Scott Adams replied to Kmorley's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I think the chances of a false positive blood test is rather small compared to the chance of a false negative biopsy result. Any chance you can share the details if your blood test results, including the scale they use? -

To biopsy or not?
Scott Adams replied to kathysb918's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The DGP tests are very accurate, and do indicate celiac disease, so it makes sense for your doctor to follow it up with an endoscope and biopsy. Were you eating gluten daily in the weeks leading up to these blood tests? If not the scores would likely have been higher. If you need a formal diagnosis to help keep you on a gluten-free diet for life... -
Velveeta and Twenty Other Surprisingly Gluten-Free Foods
Scott Adams commented on Jefferson Adams's article in Additional Concerns
If Velveeta contained "traces of gluten" they would disclose it on their label, but they do not: Open Original Shared Link We double checked and they the product is gluten-free by ingredient, and there is no allergen warning for "wheat." -
Symptoms & False negative result
Scott Adams replied to sarab's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Be sure that you've been eating gluten daily for at least 4-6 weeks before your blood tests. -
Good luck with everything and I hope you've found a solution! Keep in mind that most celiacs and those with gluten-sensitivity don't have obvious symptoms, and many have zero symptoms, so just eating some gluten and having no reaction won't rule them out...but I do hope that you don't have either issue!
