    Hi everyone, just wanted to let you know that I went to see a specialist today and he recommend that I go gluten free for 6 more weeks and then get the gene test and coeliac blood tests again to see if my result goes down.

    Thanks for all of your suggestions! I gave up dairy years ago because it was making me sick. I'm going to see my specialist tomorrow and will ask if I can be tested for other allergies.

    I'm vegan and gluten free, so it can definitely be done. I eat lots of rice (which is cheap) and rice noodles, also have started making things like corn fritters and polenta. It doesn't have to be expensive.

    So I've been gluten free now for a little over 3 weeks and I'm really sick, in fact I am worse than before. Every day I have nausea (generally in the morning), pain in my stomach area, and diarrhea. I also get these sharp pain behind my right eye every few days/ I've been really careful and mostly eating at home. The doctor did say that I also have reflux...

    Raleigh, Thank you for sharing! was there much time between the two biopsies? The high blood test 200url level I mentioned was tissue transglutaminase IgA.If I don't have it, then why my levels be so high? It just doesn't make sense. I'm seeing my specialist in a week and will be interested to see what he says. I'm going to keep eating gluten free...

    Maybe I should try eating gluten free for a month and then try gluten just to test it out, what do you think?

    My blood result showed that I had as my specialist explained 'impressively high' coeliac antibodies (IGA)- 200 u/ml, and also tested postive to IGA. The specialist said given my levels it would be pretty unlikely that the biopsy wouldn't be positive for coeliac disease. Although he did say that given my age (29) that my intestine is likely to not be very...

    ARCHIVED Confused

    Have you been tested for coealic's disease or wheat intolerance etc? I'm just wondering, because if it just wheat, you have more options. I think you should get some blood tests before going off everything because otherwise you might be giving up things for no reason.

    Thanks for all of my responses, I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who felt sick and that it might only last a little while. It wasn't really phasing out, what happened was I got my blood test results from the doctor, who referred me to a specialist and said that I should stop eating gluten. So I did, for just under a week and felt sick. But then...

    I've started to phase out gluten from my diet, but I actually feel worse than I usually do. My symptoms are nausea, upset stomach and vomiting. Has anyone else had this problem? How long before I should feel better?
