    This article may be helpful, I don't see sclerosis there:

    Once in a while, and for me it is typically if I eat certain foods that give me issues, like chicken eggs. Before I was diagnosed the primary area I had pain was in my right side. The usual thing to do is to re-check your diet and be sure it's 100% gluten-free. This article indicates that 90% of those on GF diets are still getting contamination:

    Welcome to the forum. Did you get diagnosed with celiac disease? It sounds like you are on a gluten-free diet now, is that correct? Here is a starter guide if this is correct:

    Hi @Caye , welcome to the forum! It sounds like you've not been tested for celiac disease and are trying out a gluten-free diet to see if it will relieve your symptoms. This route is perfectly fine, but just so you know you will not be able to get accurate tests done for celiac disease while you are on a gluten-free diet--you must continue eating gluten...

    Currently they are recommending only blood tests to diagnose children: but a blood test followed by a biopsy to diagnose adults. I suspect this will eventually evolve to blood tests only as well, and I’m not sure why there is a different protocol.
  8. Scott Adams
    There are inexpensive home blood test kits available as well, just in case you can’t get into the doctor to be tested now. A company called imaware makes one.

    It could be related to milk prices, which have shot through the roof...we're paying over $6 per gallon here, and that's over twice our gas prices, which are the highest in the country.

    I think another unfortunate thing we'll see with this covid-19 shelter in place, and subsequent economic impact, is that some really great, mostly smaller companies, will go out of business. I just heard that a local favorite ice cream maker, Three Twins, will be going out of business: https://www.sfchronicle.com/food/article/Three-Twins-ice-cream-company...

    Ataxia can also be caused by diabetes, so consider a screening for that.

    Certainly if you've been diagnosed with celiac disease and are still eating gluten this could be caused by that. Of course it could be other things as well, and you should consult with your doctor about this. The first step after getting a celiac disease diagnosis would be to go on a 100% gluten-free diet. It does not have to be expensive. This post...

    A quick look at one of their yogurts (I don't know which you bought) indicates that it's naturally gluten-free: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Great-Value-Light-Vanilla-Nonfat-Yogurt-6-oz-4-count/16778164 Most yogurts are naturally gluten-free. You may need to look closely at everything you eat to be sure it is 100% gluten-free, and be sure not...

    So to determine if it really is DH a dermatologist would need to do a biopsy of a blister to confirm it, and if it is DH you would need to go gluten-free to control it. Dapsone can be prescribed but it can have some serious side effects, so controlling it with a GF diet is the better choice. Also, you may want to keep eating gluten until all tests for...

    Are you on a gluten-free diet? For most with dermatitis herpetiformis the issue goes away if they maintain a 100% GF diet. From what I've read about dapsone I understand it can have serious side effects. This author on or site has written about DH in many of her articles: https://www.celiac.com/profile/74848-yvonne-vonnie-mostat-rn/

    It can be difficult, but the best way would be to keep a food diary. Eliminate them for a few weeks to months, then slowly add them back one at a time. Note that I had issues with chicken eggs, but not with duck eggs, which can often be found in farmer's markets or Asian markets. Likewise, sheep's milk products may still work, but not cow's milk. ...

    For many celiacs these flare ups occur less due to things like spices than what might be additional, sometimes temporary, food intolerance. For example symptoms might be caused by things like dairy, soy, corn, eggs, and other common allergens. Once the gut heals the offending item(s) can often be added back, but not always.

    Honestly, Gatorade is gluten-free, even though they don't claim it on their label. Coke and many other drinks also do not claim "gluten-free" but are. If you require this to be on your label you may need to make/mix your own version. Many things are naturally gluten-free and don't include this on their labels.

    GliadinX is definitely not a joke and a lot of research has been published about AN-PEP and how it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.
