Thanks! I wonder if any good quality digestive enzymes will help if I'm just at the edge of the ranges? I had my thyroid tested and I take Vitamin D. I am feeling a bit better the last few days and I wonder if it's because I have been using digestive enzymes when I eat? I wonder whether that's all I've ever really needed? I may try papaya and bromelain...

Thanks. I have read a lot about celiac, etc. and I guess I am confused because celiac damages the intestines. I can't find much talking about NCGS causing damaged/inflammed intestines. Does this mean the gluten and casein are damaging my intestines? Does it indicate any type of leaky gut? The reason I ask this is because some of my worst symptoms are...

Please help me interpret my results. I do not have either celiac gene (thankfully!), but have two genes that predispose me to gluten sensitivity and I am sensitive to casein. However, my gluten sensitivity level was 10 (very close to normal). For reference, I was off gluten for a week prior to the tests, but I do not think that would affect them. I am...

Chasbari, That is very interesting. Do you still have the issues with your tongue? I felt like mine was a little swollen and the back/sides were sore. Do you get these now when you drink grain alcohols? More info, please! Thanks!

Thank you everyone! That was terribly helpful information from each of you. Yesterday afternoon I began to fell better -- more energy, more upbeat. I am going to take the gluten enzymes with each meal for awhile b/c I figure any sort of enzyme will atleast help whatever food I eat digest better. I must say that my stomach is so flat that I can not believe...

That is interesting. I will have to try potato vodka when I get up the nerve to drink a martini again! I have a question: Is it possible for a NCGI to have neurological symptoms or are those reserved, generally, for celiacs? I am just wondering whether gluten can cause leaky gut in a NCGI as well as a celiac? So many of my problems are neurological...

Thank you for your response. I am really shocked to still be dizzy and lightheaded. My husband says he thinks I was drugged because I have little memory of the night and have been so sick since. I must admit, the painful tongue is one of the strangest things that has ever happened to me. The back of my tongue felt burned. Thanks.

I have had IBS since the birth of my youngest child 4.5 years ago. I have a history of ulcers and some other weird stuff, but IBS became a real issue after her birth. I am 35 years old. I have gone through the same struggles as many of you in dealing with the "IBS Diagnosis". Doctors are no help. They have suggested meditation, less stress and fiber...
