Hi Mel, My son is IgA deficient. He had a positive IgG. I think about 115, over 20 being positive. I e-mailed Dr. Fine of Enterolab. He emailed me back and said that high serum IgG is a diagnostic of gluten sensitivity. He said his symptoms warranted a gluten free diet now. He also said sometimes IgA will be in stool but not blood but usually not...

Hi, I like to use Orgran all purpose crumbs for breading chicken cutlets or eggplant. I buy it at Fairway and I also buy it online. I love these bread crumbs! Lisa

Thanks for all the useful info. I saved everything to my favorites. I am so glad you're on the road to recovery! Lisa

Hi, My son (19) was diagnosed with a benign essential hand tremmor about 5 years ago. He is gluten intolerant. He is on the gluten-free diet now (3 months) and I wonder if they have gotten better. I will ask him when I see him (he is never home..LOL) Lisa

I'm sooo happy for you!! Lisa

That's great!! I know what it's like to suffer like that. Well, not for 10 years but a couple. Enjoy shopping!! Lisa

Hi Jen, My son is 19 and suffered for about 5 years with nausea, vomiting, heartburn and very bad gas (burping constantly!!!). He is Iga deficient (10 percent of celiacs are) and his IgG was positive at 115 (over 20 is positive). He was sent from doctor to doctor and had a negative biopsy in July and many other tests. He does have severe damage to...

I have hypothyroidism and chronic hives (5 months now), my son (12) has the thyroid antibodies and is on synthroid too. My 16 yr old has vitiligo, an autoimmune skin disease. My oldest son is gluten intolerant, he had positive blood IgG and tested positive with enterolab. Three of my 4 sons have thyroid antibodies. They have to be watched for Hashimotos...

Altoids (Peppermint) always make me feel better. My kids too. I hope you feel better soon! Lisa

If you feel better when you are gluten free then I would stay gluten free. Sometimes the biopsy will be negative but your positive bloodwork probably means you are gluten sensitive. If you are gluten sensitive you need to remain on a gluten free diet. My son has many of the same symptoms you have. He is IgA deficient and has a positive IgG. He too...

Hi Kate Check out Vance Foods website, they make a potato based milk product. Hope this helps! Lisa

I just bought the brownies from health food store. They were from Foods by George. They were absolutely delicious! They are wheat free, gluten free, casein free, lactose free, dairy free. It is amazing how good they are and no chemicals either!! (a bit pricey though $6.39 for a small tray) Good for special occasions or just to spoil yourself or your...

Hi, I am also suffering from chronic hives right now. I have had them about 10 weeks. I've been to 2 internists and 2 allergists. If your sister's doctor said it's hives then she probably has hives. Has your sister been to allergist? They can work with the antihistamines to get the right combo of drugs for her. They did for me, well to keep me comfortable...
