Thank you for your post it is greatly appreciated. I was still on gluten full force when I had all the other blood work done back in april and results were negative but I decided to give it up as a last resort. I followed a SCD and it helped so much so yes my answer is I have gluten issues and feel better without it. My Dr did this last blood work just to...

I have just recieved yet another panel of blood work back from GI dr and am not sure on the meaning. Let me first say I have as of now had all available blood work for celiac possible and everything is negative. My GI did one last panel he said specfic for celiac as one last resort before the endo. Tested for S. Cerevisiae Ab, IgA . S result was...

Hi I am following the SCD and doing very well but seems with my increased protein consumption I have become constipated. I am hoping this will agjust in a few days but was wondering what I can take to ease the problem. I do drinks tons of water too. I have a supplement call fibersmart that is gluten free but the SCD says no FOS and that has it. I also just...

I never realized just how damaging it was eating things I shoudn't. Amazing what can happen to your body. I am still feeling better than I have in years and that is more than enough to stick with it. I thought I would feel realy limited but I am actuall never hungry, with all the extra protein it keeps me full longer and the awful cravings are gone. I know...

I just wanted to share with all of you my amazing progress so far and it has only been 12 days. Little background first. Had allergy testing done 2 years ago and discovered, wheat allergy, dairy allergy, and soy as well. I was told my wheat allergy was not much of a big deal just don't ingest too much in one sitting ( big bowl of wheat cereal as he said)...

This has been so overwhelming because every dr. has a differernt opinion, but I have to agree that being off the gluten for only a couple of weeks and I don't feel the brain fog and no where near as tired and generally that lost of control and irritated feeling is almost gone. It also feel like I am building a bit of muscle back strange I know and i am not...

After seeing another DR. today because mine was away he informed me that he would consider my TTG test wich was 6 on a range on 0 to 10 more than likely positive especially seeing as I was gluten free when they did the test! Strange because my other DR said test was negative. Who do I believe, I can't get into my GI dr until Sept. I know I am staying gluten...

I got the rest of my results back today IgE 17.2 range of <100 Immunogonulin M 121 range of 53-375 Endomysial Ab negative TTG 6 range of 0 to 10 My thyroid was on the lowe side of normal 0.87 range of 0.30 to 5.0 Vit B12 was high 709 range of 113 to 530 He said that I have slight elevation of White blood count in my stool...

I can't believe that I found this post, every question I was thinking or wanted to ask was answered..AMAZING. I have been to hell and back in this crusade to figue out my problem, Tested negative for celiac but I do indeed have a wheat allergy via skin testing with allergist as well as soy and dairy and lactose intolerance. Whic I understand is pretty normal...

I do agree with the probiotics., I have been taking them now for about a year as well as digestive enzymes. I reat really well most of the time and I have become so afraid of carbs that even when out I don't eat them it is always a salad or steak. I honestly feel like I can't eat anythig. When I do have carbs say like oats or even a startchy veg I start to...

My dr. went over my lab results and we were a bit suprised we were expecting my vit B 12 to come back low when in fact it came back higher 790 at a range of 305-535. As well my throyid test was on the lower end of normal mine was 0.78 range of 0.90 to 5.50. My dr. sid no big deal as it was still in the normal range and th B12 was not that elevated. Does...

For some reason my body doesn't digest carbs that well, even sweet potato and squash give me problems with bloating and followed by water retention. I am guessing this is due to the intestinal damage caused by my wheat allergy? I did a south beach diet some years back and it was at that point that I discovered that something might be up with my body and...

That is so amazing that you say that about the fruit and veggie because a week ago I was feeling so bad that I was afraid of food and went on an elimination diet myself with fresh homemade juices and slightly steamed veggies and purred soups. After a few days I have to say I started to feel so much better, my aches and apins lifted my water retention left...

Yes I certainally think you are right I am in need of a new allergist and I do have an appointment with a new one in Sept. After the Rast testing an the skin prick test I was even more confused....all the rast testing came back negative to any allergy what so ever but the skin testing he said was more than obvious so for a long while I was in denial that...

I just wanted to thank everyone on these boards because I no longer feel alone in this never ending battle. Here is my story....^ years ago I went on a south beach type diet to lose a few pounds after having my first baby, I was never heavy in fact always skinny but after baby needed a bit of help. Felt great while eating this way, but started to experience...
