Celiac.com 10/14/2020 - We get more than a few question about peanut butter. Specifically, is peanut butter gluten-free, and safe for people with celiac disease? Peanuts are gluten-free, and with very few exceptions, most peanut butter... -
All these mentioned, when not contaminated, are gluten-free. Some, like oats, are often contaminated because they are grown, transported, and processed in the same fields/facilities as wheat, thus it's always a good idea to find brands that say "gluten-free" if possible.

You could do another blood test, there are mail order ones, for example https://www.imaware.health/ I do wonder what exact criteria were used to create the current cut off lines. Why would one person who scores 1 single point below a cut off not have celiac disease, while another person would? Both people are having an inappropriate response to gluten...

Scott Adams posted an article in Gluten-Free Foods & Beverages
Celiac.com 10/13/2020 - Peanuts are naturally gluten-free, and so are most peanut butter brands, unless they've got added gluten ingredients. However, many brands do not label their peanut butter as gluten-free, and many unlabeled peanut... -
One Blood Test Can Now Diagnose Celiac Disease without Biopsy
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Diagnosis, Testing & Treatment
Celiac.com is a USA-based site, but the trend to rely on blood tests to diagnose celiac disease is growing in popularity in all countries. Multiple studies done over the last 15 years have shown this to be an accurate way to make a diagnosis in most cases, provided the blood tests are done using the recommended protocol: Only a minority of blood tests... -

Early High Dose Gluten Introduction Can Help Prevent Celiac Disease
Scott Adams commented on Scott Adams's article in Kids and Celiac Disease
The study here looked at over 1,000 infants, rather than just one. Science requires much larger samples to find evidence of an effect that can be measured and applied to a larger population. -
Gliadin
Scott Adams replied to Cassandra Harding's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
If you mean the GliadinX advertised here, who are current sponsors of this site, there are multiple studies that have shown it to be effective at breaking down gluten in the stomach, so it could be helpful for trace amounts of cross-contamination. Of course it's important to avoid all gluten, but if you travel, eat out, or buy certain products that are naturally...- 1 reply

Thoughts on Symptoms
Scott Adams replied to Evabrooke-26's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
If they did run the blood test and it were negative they likely would not be looking for celiac disease with a biopsy, but definitely call and see if they ran the test. It actually would be unusual for them to schedule the biopsy for CD without having first run the blood screening. If they haven't run it yet, I would request it. -
Thoughts on Symptoms
Scott Adams replied to Evabrooke-26's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
This is the right place, and welcome to the forum! Did you by chance get a celiac disease blood screening done? Normally this would take place before a biopsy. If so feel free to share the results here, as that would give us a good idea whether or not you might have celiac disease. Certainly your symptoms sound consistent with it. It turns out... -

For those not yet diagnosed with celiac disease it might be a better approach to first get a blood test for celiac disease, especially since you can now do this mail order for under $100. If you aren’t able to do this your elimination approach is not a bad alternative, but many people with gluten sensitivity don’t have obvious symptoms.

While I do believe that some people with celiac disease may also need to eat a grain free diet to fully recover, the vast majority do recover as evidenced by the regrowth of their villi and normalization of blood antibody tests while on a standard gluten-free diet that includes eating corn, sorghum, quinoa, GF oats, and other greens that are considered gluten...

Yes, unfortunately I can't tell your reading. Did you have 3 as your tTg result? I can't read the other results either. -

I think your approach of taking magnesium and a good vitamin/mineral supplement might be a good place to begin.

I will have to assume that you have a good handle on your gluten-free diet, and didn't eat out or eat things that could have been contaminated. Obviously contamination is my first thought, but if you're sure that your diet has been clean then it could just be a bug of some sort, including something from the cucumber.
