    Also, if your diet has been 100% gluten-free for 10 years and you still have the same issues it's important for you to follow up and figure out what is going on. Definitely check with your doctor, which it sounds like you're already doing, and keep a food diary to identify other allergy/intolerance issues.

    @cyclinglady I've got no idea what you mean here. I re-read her post, and my response, and every word of my reply stands. I fully understand the situation, she was never officially diagnosed, went gluten-free, and now is considering getting an official diagnosis. Did I miss anything? Please explain?

    Celiac.com 07/22/2020 - Currently, the only effective treatment for celiac disease is a permanent gluten-free diet. Many commercial gluten-free foods are low in fiber, and high in fat, salt, sugar. Many health professionals question the...

    If you've been happily gluten-free for 10 years I don't see any reason to start eating gluten again to be retested, unless you're not happy with the diet, and doubt your self diagnosis. If you need a diagnosis to stay on the gluten-free diet, then it probably makes sense to do a gluten challenge and eat gluten daily for 4-6 weeks for a celiac disease blood...

    Do you recall what type of test you took? Was it a blood panel for celiac disease? If so, then you likely need to avoid gluten, and not just wheat. Here is a list of foods to avoid if gluten is your issue:

    This number typically goes down after a few months, so it does make sense to double check your diet to be sure it is 100% gluten-free. Do you eat out at restaurants? I ask because this is a common source of contamination: It is also a good idea to double check any medications you take regularly, as well as lipstick, lip gloss, and cosmetic...

    Were you eating gluten daily until the tests were done? If not, you could have gotten a false negative result. You need to keep eating gluten daily during the weeks leading up to a blood test or biopsy. For me there was immediate relief after going gluten-free, but since I has fairly severe intestinal lesions caused by celiac disease it took me around...

    Be sure that you're eating gluten daily until all testing has been completed. If you start a gluten-free diet before tests for CD it could lead to false negative results. Weight loss is a common symptom of celiac disease.

    My concern is that in-patient facilities like hospitals and elderly care facilities are notoriously bad in dealing with the gluten-free diet. If you go this route be sure they can handle this properly for you.

    As long as it hasn’t been cross-contaminated during milling, pure teff flour is gluten-free. I’m not sure about its oxalate content.

    I can’t speak for other forums, but the info in this forum, which has outstanding long-term moderators, is very good, especially with regard to celiac disease testing. I actually hear far more horror stories coming from bad doctors, for example in this recent thread a poor lady had multiple strong positive celiac blood test results a year ago, yet h...

    Folgers isn’t labeled “gluten-free” but on their site: https://www.folgerscoffee.com/coffees/k-cup-pods/lively-colombian-decaf-k-cup-pods it states: This product does not contain milk, peanut, egg, fish, crustacean shellfish, soy, tree nut or wheat allergens. So it is likely naturally gluten-free.

    In Europe Codex Wheat Starch is considered safe for those with celiac disease because it contains less than 20ppm gliadin/gluten. It is not considered safe under USA labeling regulations which state that anything made using wheat as an ingredient, even if the detectable amount of gluten is zero, is not gluten-free. Our articles about Codex wheat...
