    Like I said earlier, as long as you don't have an allergy to where you get a reaction when it touches your skin. You are okie dokie.

    No maam, your tests will more than likely come back negative because you are not making the antibodies to gluten anymore unless you have been getting alot of cross contamination. Sounds to me either you are getting gluten cross contamination somewhere or you have developed another food intolerance. Are you eating a lot of gluten free foods? They are high...

    Oh definetly yes on the negative blood tests, even on the scope to because they can biopsy the wrong area. You can still have celiac and get negative tests. If and when you get all your testing done that you want go gluten free strictly for about 3 to 6 months. Especially since you have a realtive with it. Wouldn't hurt you to have your kiddos tested too...

    Hi Twe0708, Yes it can be downright frustrating when the other half just dosen't get it. Been there for sure. But, unless you have an allergy to gluten where you have a reaction to gluten touching your skin you're ok. Just to be on the safe side wash your face when he kisses you on the cheek. But it is when he hasn't brushed his teeth when he's drinking...

    Putting all the medical mumbo jumbo aside. Sometimes it just comes down to people needing a piece of paper validating that something is wrong with them. For some that means being able to stick to the diet with no cheating. Plain and simple.

    After I went gluten free my anxiety eased somewhat but it was when I took out both soy and dairy also my anxiety totally went away. I had depression and social anxiety disorder since I was 7 years old. I am off my all my meds now and depression and anxiety dosen't come come back unless, i get glutened, soyed or dairied. Have gone caffine free and it's brought...

    Yes maam, I figured that one out about 2 months into my gluten free diet. That was hard for me, cutting a lot of my sweets out. But I've been able to replace with other things. So, hang in there. It is a learning curve, but you will feel so much better on the other side that it will be worth it.

    Thanks Gree, so far I havn't really had any headaches to speak of or feelings of irritability, knock on wood, It's just a rundown feeling and crying every couple of hours for no apparent reason. Then again, it being that time of the month too might be having more of a reaction to it. I just know it's feeling a bit different than normal and also now that...

    Hi Valkyrie, Yes, it can be overwhelming at first but like anything else, it gets better with time. If you want to be tested you have to go back on gluten. The longer you are gluten free the less antibodies to gluten you are making and can cause a negative test. You have to be on a full gluten diet. The equivelant to 2 to 3 pieces of bread for about 2 months...

    I went totally caffine free about a week ago now, and I'm feeling really tired and i'm getting depression and crying jags. I'm eating clean, it's just since I quit the caffine this has hit. Is this normal caffine withdrawal? And how long will this last? This is wicked feeling. Oh, before I forget, i'm drinking Bigelow's Decaf Earl Grey tea and i'm sweetening...

    Hi Churchlady, Welcome to the forums. Your symptoms sound like you have a gluten intolerance if not Celiac itself, the problem though is sometimes the tests can be negative and you still show symptoms. So, after all your testing is done go gluten free. That will be the best test. As for overweight, I am 5 ft 2 and when I found myself going gluten free...

    I would rather be safe than sorry. I got rid of all my old pans and got new ones. Just my opinion.
  13. txplowgirl
    Oh Hon, I would move ASAP! Like your tail was on fire if at all possible.
  14. txplowgirl
    A positive biopsy is the gold standard. You have Celiac and your dr needs to go back to school. He's an idiot.

    Hi Quake, Hope you get to feeling better. Just to let you know, there is a high negative rate on the tests, so you may show negative on the tests but you still can have a gluten intolerance. So, after all the testing is done that you want I would go gluten free. You don't have to have a dr's permission. Since you seemed to find a little relief in just the...

    CONGRATS Raven! Gives me hope that my problems will be gone in time too.

    Nightshade vegetables and soy both cause the tingling like you're describing for me. That went away after I was soy free and nightshade free for 6 weeks. I hope you can get some answers.

    I have a couple of thoughts. Could be a reaction caused by the acidity in the apple juice, you might have been cc'd, or you have developed another food intolerance. Have you been eating more soy? Soy will do that to me as well as gluten. Like I said just a thought. Hope they go away soon.

    I'm happy for you Revenant, I pray your mother will be easier on you and your sister now. Keep up the good work and perhaps show that show to your sister too. Maybe it will help her also realize that she can get better. I'm keeping all of you and your family in my prayers.

    I agree with mushroom, I am gluten intolerant, I went gluten free then after a year I tried to do a gluten challenge. The first 4 days were fine then I slowly started getting sick, couldn't sleep, my body started hurting, fatigue, daily headaches, as well as quite a few other symtopms. By the end of 2 weeks I was so miserable, I was depressed, anxiety...

    Thanks Tarnalberry, it's irritating that i'm just now finding out about the caffine. One of those duh moments again. "Slapping myself upside of the head"

    It's almost impossible to figure out, but it may have nothing to do with gluten. Now, this is just my opinion, but that sounds like possibly a fibro flare caused by stress or: Did you drink any diet drinks with aspartame in them because that will cause that kind of pain. Did you eat any potatoes, tomatoes, bell peppers or eggplant? All these will cause...

    Thanks everyone, i'm drinking Lipton and Luzianne, and no matter how much I dilute it, it has a stong taste that makes my mouth dry for some reason and and causes a tiny bit of reflux. That's why I was asking in another post if the tea bags might have been sealed with gluten. I was hoping the herbals wouldn't do this.

    I've been eating Log Cabin with no problems and I am super sensitive with gluten. It's oky doky.

    Hi Gad, Welcome to the forums. There are a lot of us on here who have a lot of your symptoms and more and recovered. I had social anxiety disorder and clinical depression since I was 8 years old. Like a lot of us, I went through dozens of dr's who thought I was trying to get attention, all in my head, hypchondriach, etc. Been on so many different meds...
