    Scott Adams's post in Diarrhea after cutting gluten out was marked as the answer   
    Congratulations! Symptoms can vary quite a bit from person to person, and most people report the opposite--diarrhea when eating gluten which usually goes away after a while on a gluten-free diet, but constipation is also a fairly common...

    Scott Adams's post in Weird celiac symptoms was marked as the answer   
    Celiac disease can trigger similar symptoms, and I also had symptoms similar to what you described that led to panic attacks and trips to the emergency room, but be sure to talk to your doctor about your symptoms, as they could also be...

    Scott Adams's post in Recently tested, could anyone tell me what my results mean? was marked as the answer   
    It looks like you have 2 positive tests for celiac disease, your Transglutaminase IgA is over 5x the cut off for celiac disease (some doctors may diagnose you just by this and the fact that it runs in your family), and your Deamidated g...

    Scott Adams's post in Hospital fed me gluten was marked as the answer   
    This isn't the first time we've heard this story, and many with celiac disease are in fear of ever having to stay in a hospital, elder care facility, etc., as there are many bad stories that have been shared about such experiences on...

    Scott Adams's post in DQA1*05 gene was marked as the answer   
    The presence of the HLA-DQA1*05 allele, also known as DQ2.5, is associated with an increased risk of developing celiac disease. However, it's important to note that having the allele does not guarantee the development of the disease. ...

    Scott Adams's post in Dermatitis Herpetiformis was marked as the answer   
    That makes more sense! There was very limited awareness of this disease back in the 1960's, and not antibody tests for it. It's good you finally figured this out!

    Scott Adams's post in MALABSORPTION was marked as the answer   
    Welcome to the forum!
    I saw in your other thread that you are gluten-free now. Were you diagnosed with celiac disease recently? 
    You likely already know that celiac disease causes malabsorption of nutrients, and the question ...

    Scott Adams's post in Probable diagnosis- some questions was marked as the answer   
    In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease.

    Scott Adams's post in Celiac rare symptoms? was marked as the answer   
    Many here have reported acne and cystic acne as symptoms...I had the latter when I was a teenager, and it was likely related to me being undiagnosed at that point and still eating gluten.

    Scott Adams's post in NYE party horns/noisemakers was marked as the answer   
    I've seen some that are plastic, and some that are cardboard, it seems like the cardboard ones where that part goes in your mouth could use a gluten-based glue. Although it seems unlikely, it does seem possible.

    Scott Adams's post in Advice Protein Powders, Canned tomatoes and beans was marked as the answer   
    I agree and don't think canned vegetables or tomatoes should be an issue for celiacs, at least as far as gluten goes.

    Scott Adams's post in imported Chinese Rice Vermicelli was marked as the answer   
    I have eaten Asian rice noodles fairly regularly for decades, without issues, however, that isn't a guarantee that some brands might be cross-contaminated in a processing plant. I would only mention that you might want to instead opt...

    Scott Adams's post in My parents have friends coming over to our house,risk of gluten could be really high was marked as the answer   
    If you are extremely sensitive, then it's better safe than sorry--consider wearing a mask. 
    By the way, this company makes a gluten-free all purpose flour that supposedly makes great GF calzones:

    Sorry but I don't know the names of various prescriptions for thyroid issues, but 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...

    Scott Adams's post in I work at a grocery store should I be taking precautions? was marked as the answer   
    If the bags of flour you move leak and create dust, perhaps it gets on your skin, in your month, etc., which may cause an issue, but it seems unlikely to happen unless a bag is leaking. I would wash my hands well after moving such bags...

    Scott Adams's post in Mineral water? was marked as the answer   
    Yes, but it can be more costly than supplements. Drinking a good quality mineral water is an excellent way to get certain minerals, and most publish their mineral content on the bottle and/or web site.

    Actually similar risks have been found in people who get covid-19, but without vaccinations their risks of additional bad health outcomes are significantly higher, so you're likely better off getting the booster than the live virus. ...
