I've been reading about everyone's specific gene types and I'm wondering how I could figure out which one I have. On my labs from Prometheus it only says: DQ2 (HLA DQA1*05/DQB1*02) I'm just curious about the specific types...adeles I guess they're called. Does my test show these? Thanks!

I do take probiotics, and Nystatin. Last thing I need is yeast! Yikes!! Do you think the docs are wrong and it's a definite that I do have Celiac? The report says "supports a diagnosis of celiac disease, not that I do have it. I know that damage can be patchy but why would they all question it? My ttg was 7.8 and the cut off was 4. Now they tell...

Yes...I am being treated with IV rocephin and zithromax. That's what I'm figuring my tummy issues are from. Although as soon as I started going gluten free (and I am VERY careful) I started having a lot of trouble. That was 4 months before I found out about the lyme. My LLMD thinks the allergies started from the lyme. My GI thought maybe the lyme...

I've been getting confusing info from my docs. I tested positive for Celiac last March by the blood test. Negative biopsy. I don't have my test results in front of me, but it was the Promethius test and my numbers were only slightly elevated. Like if the cutoff was 10, I was 12. The EMA was positive. I remember when I was having the biopsy, I was...

Hi Everyone Since going gluten free my blood pressure plummets from time to time. As a rule it is very low..80's over 50's and the doctors check and recheck it but don't seem too worried. Today I felt really sick and weak all the sudden and when I checked it on a monitor it was 74 over 44. I really don't know why this is happening. I've always had lower...

Hi and thanks again I've had EVERYTHING checked. All tests come back fine. My vitamin D is in the low end of normal, my iron was okay but my ferritin was low end of normal. All other vitamins okay. I've been checked for other autoimmune diseases and they came back negative. My lyme did go off to IgeneX.....have a wonderful new doctor! I...

But would my mind get worse and worse? I mean it's really scary. I can barely function. My nutrition should start to get better shouldn't it? So the blood work couldn't possibly be wrong or mean something else? I would rather be healthy..not trying to deny it but I wonder why so many people would question it. I can't see how I could get much worse...

Hi everyone I've been having a lot of trouble and wondering if I could get some advice. Since going gluten free I have been getting progressively worse. My mind doesn't work at all. My memory is shot...can't remember anything from even hours ago. I can't gain weight and look extremely malnourished. I seem to react (my brain gets muddled) to just about...

How do I get the faces to show in my post? Don't mean to sound stupid, but every time I tryall I get are the keyboard versions. I'd like to use them!!

Hi Pauliina Thanks for the info. How would I know if there's casein in something? I'm so overwhelmed with the things I can't eat and I need to eat a lot because I am very underweight. I eat different things every day but this brain stuff is always there. Some days are worse so I figure those days I may have gotten some. Can never figure out from...

Thanks for the info! I don't think I have ataxia. I don't have balance problems just extreme problems with memory and concentration. My brain was always sharp and since diagnosis it's been getting worse and worse. It feels like only half my brain is working and I can't figure out what is going on. I'm even having trouble communicating verbally. Not to mention...

I've been eating really healthy....except for the occasional treat. (Trying to gain weight) Where would I get tested for food sensitivities? Everything seems to bother me now but only in a more "where'd my mind go" kind of way. I never had any kind of gut troubles before. How about the mercury? I see an integrative MD but he's not really into doing...

I've been gluten free for over 2 months now and really not getting any better. I was wondering if anyone has had problems with their memory, cognitive functioning, and overall mental capacity still getting worse on a gluten free diet? I know I am being gluten free to the extreme. I research and check everything. I never had any gut issues or food problems...

Hi Everyone I've been having a hard time lately and was hoping someone might be able to give me some advice. I've been gluten free for over 2 months now and seem to be getting sicker and sicker. I am being VERY careful about CC and eat very plain. My dietician wants me to eat tons of food every day to get my weight up, but I'm still nauseous all the time...

I think I need to start the candida diet but I'm afraid to because I need to put on weight and it sounds like that would be pretty tough on the diet. Any suggestions? I really think I need to do it because last year I had so much trouble with yeast but didn't know what it could do to a person. I did the spit test and it showed I have it. I see a ND this week...
