    minton, Sorry, I'm new to the panels and couldn't figure out how to reply to your "IM" that popped up. Thanks for the reply. I'll give you this piece of advice too... if you like :-) College will be much easier than high school... because in college you get to pick a major and take classes in what you're interested in. Working on something that interests...

    I'm new to this whole "gluten-free" living situation. I'm currently waiting to hear back on my blood test results to find out what my IgA & IgG levels are later this week. After I find out my test results and find out if I'm to do any further testing, I'm going on a gluten-free diet. I was diagnosed in my late 20's with ADD. Finding out that diagnosis...

    I'm curious... are you on a gluten free diet? As I have been absorbing everything I can about gluten sensitivity and Celiac, a lot of people experience a "brain fog" lift when they go gluten-free... just wondering what you think?

    Well, since we've found a forum topic for Portlanders... I'm glad to hear some local reports about practitioners and places to eat! Any other Portland places to check out if I'm new to gluten-free eating? I'm currently waiting for my test results in the Kaiser system. Anyone else in Portland have Kaiser coverage? If so, how has your experience been...

    Wow - that is great. I'm currently waiting for my test results... and kind of freaking out that regardless of the test results I'm going to be poo-pooed by the doctor (you know, have him think I'm a hypochondriac). A large part of my fear is driven from the trials folks on the forums have had with getting diagnosed. Your comment about getting HLA typed...

    I bought the book and read almost the whole thing last night. Very interesting. Thanks for the suggestion. I am curious... if your test came back negative, did you simply decide to go gluten free yourself? Or did you have further testing? Or did your doctor say you might simply be gluten sensitive? I have a fear that I'll get a negative test result and...

    This sounds similar to my problem. I'm pretty sure the cough is either fully or partially from post-nasal drip. That makes perfect sense that the gluten could trigger it given that I get post-nasal drip from allergy related congestion.

    Interesting... your description seems to match to mine perfectly. I wake up in the AM cough free, then I start coughing a little after breakfast (sometimes more than other times, depending on what I eat). Then my cough subsides mid-morning, and picks up again after lunch, subsides mid-afternoon, picks up again more heavily after dinner and usually gets worse...

    Hey, I'd love to know the answer to this as well... I've had a horrific cough now for 1.5 years that gets worse directly after I eat. I was told it was GERD, but after 12 months on Prilosec, I've only seen mild improvement. Anyone else attribute a cough to Celiac?
