Given your long list of symptoms it would make sense to see if a 100% gluten-free diet helps relieve them, especially the anemia, and if so, it would make sense to just stay 100% gluten-free. Also, capsule endoscopy is not ideal for diagnosing celiac disease, as subtle villi damage cannot be detect by it.

Alprazolam gluten free?
Scott Adams replied to Redward's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
A classic CYA response, but their answer means that yes, Alprazolam 0.25 TABLETS contain zero gluten ingredients. -
New to all of this
Scott Adams replied to Newhere19's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
While having an official diagnosis may offer some benefits, especially in places in the UK where the government offers food subsidies, and where follow up tests can be ordered afterwards, there are also drawbacks: -
This one is likely gluten-free, with the possible exception of the Fragrance (Parfum), which might require confirmation from the manufacturer due to its proprietary nature. If you have extreme gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, contacting the product manufacturer for verification is recommended. https://chi.com/shop/categories/styling/sprays/44-iron...

Yes, there is a grey zone where some people with elevated blood antibodies that don't quite rise to the level of positive for celiac disease might be in a pre-celiac disease state, and will eventually test positive, while others in this grey area may never test positive. I would say that many in this group might have NCGS, especially if their symptoms go...

Your experience sounds incredibly challenging and frustrating. It’s impressive that you’ve been so methodical in tracking your triggers and finding safe foods. While it may feel bizarre, sensitivities like these can sometimes point to underlying conditions like chemical sensitivities, histamine intolerance, or even specific food additives. Have you considered con...

Gluten-Free Foods
Scott Adams replied to Dana Gilcrease's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Welcome to the forum! The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen... -
I agree with @trents on the sourdough bread--regular bread should be used, or Saltine crackers, etc.

I'm sorry about your financial issues, and unfortunately we can't offer any legal advice here, but at least you've figured out that you have celiac disease, and have hopefully lead a more healthy life as the result. -
When I was in Germany supermarkets offered excellent European/German style breads by Schar that were outstanding. I wish they sold them here in the USA.

Since your symptoms are so severe and obvious, I can't really think of a compelling reason to get the confirmation, especially when weighed against some of the downsides of having an official diagnosis that are mentioned in the thread I shared. For people in the UK and other countries where their health care system offers food subsidies for those with celiac...

You can buy gluten-free cheese sauce powder on Amazon, or you can buy gluten-free macaroni and cheese, which include a cheese sauce packet. Many alfredo sauces in the jar are also gluten-free.

You may want to look at this thread before you proceed: Also, I am not sure why you would "negotiate" a 7-10 gluten challenge, when the science indicates that such a length of time is likely not long enough.

Eczema or dermatitis herpetiformis
Scott Adams replied to ellieb13's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
If you get tested for celiac disease be sure that you are eating lots of gluten daily in the 6-8 weeks before the test, otherwise you could get false positive results.

In case your tests turn out negative you may still want to try a gluten-free diet. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

Antibodies went up
Scott Adams replied to Barcino's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
You are correct in looking closer at her diet, as there may still be trace amounts of gluten, even from a gluten-free bakery (are their ingredient suppliers certified gluten-free?). You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version... -
