  1. Hi! I was reading the directions for the enterolab tests. It said to have one complete stool. Part of mine um landed in the toilet instead of the bowl but I had more than 1/2 a cup of what was needed. Does this matter? I got my results back and they were negative (Fecal Anti-gliadin IgA: 8 Units) Thanks!
  2. Yeah, I understand you, another theory I heard, which I mentioned above is that no matter how much you eat the body holds on to every calorie (because it wants nutrients) and therefore slows the metabolism. That's just a theory though.
  3. Thanks everyone! From what I gather, the Celiacs that gained weight did so because their body was starving for more nutrients, so this lead to overeating. very interesting..
  4. I'm talking about the ones that gain weight instead of lose weight while eating gluten and being undiagnosed. Not just overeating on gluten free foods. Thanks everyone for your thoughts!
  5. Hi! So I know there are quite a few of Celiacs that put ON weight instead of losing it. One theory I heard is that the body is so malnourished of vitamins that it holds on to every calorie and the metabolism slows down. For those of you who were undiagnosed and overweight, did you deal with anemia issues? Let me know what you think, it's very interesting...
  6. thank you so much for your input! I really appreciate it. I'm trying to look at all points of view as to why I have always been so irregular. I got my first period at a normal time (I was 12) and I always grew at an adequate pace. I was just diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and I knew I had PCOS but I was wondering if gluten was maybe a factor to...
  7. Hi! So I'm still not sure if I am gluten intolerant but I was wondering what caused Celiac patients to suffer from infertility. Is it the vitamin malabsorption that lowers progesterone levels? Do any of you have any good articles on this topic? All I have read is that Celiac is associated with infertility but it doesn't explain HOW. For example, I have amenorrhea...
  8. Hi! Ok so lately I have been doing a ton of research, including on gluten intolerance. I was reading articles on how recurrent ear infections in kids can be due to wheat allergy. When I was little I used to have a ton of ear infections. The skin inside my ears is also dry. Then I read that women that are gluten intolerant can have amenorrhea, which is...
  9. Thanks for your reply! So is it common for someone to have no symptoms AT ALL even during childhood and still suffer from this? I'm thinking of getting the enterolab done but it just costs so much Do you know if insurance an cover it or part of it? And congrats on your weight gain but that's the last thing I want lol I want to lose 20 lbs. ...
  10. Hi! I was just diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. Someone said that if you already have an autoimmune disorder, then you're likely to have Celiac's. So I did some reasearch and found these symptoms on google: Abdominal pain Abdominal distention, bloating, gas, indigestion Constipation Decreased appetite (may also be increased or unchanged) Diarrhea...
