    If it's that easy I will definitely try it, Skylark. Thank you.

    Thank you for the link, Skylark. I'll hang on to it and consider the diet if/when I reach the point of total despair. The gluten free diet is challenging enough without following an additional rigid diet like that too. I wonder how common it is for celiacs to continue with usual symptoms despite their guts being repaired?

    Thank you Dilettantesteph, the interview is interesting. I have never tried a trial diet of only produce and meat, so maybe I should.

    Many thanks all for your kind feedback

    Three years after dramatic bowel changes and swollen (bloated) abdomen, I was diagnosed with celiac disease from blood tests and the biopsy. Since then I have adhered rigidly to a strict gluten-free diet, including avoidance of any possible cross contamination, even ensuring skin products are gluten-free. Five months later a second biopsy showed that my villi...

    I use cherry-flavoured Lypsyl, which is gluten-free Open Original Shared Link I live in the UK and was told by a staff member of a coeliac organisation not to worry about gluten in skin products, even in lipsticks, as gluten needs to be literally eaten to be affected by it. I reminded her that lips get licked, but she was adamant that coeliacs don't need...

    You explained it well. It was me just being dim. I see what you mean now. Thanks for the clarification.

    Dixiebell, thanks for the advice. I wouldn't be surprised if quitting smoking can trigger celiacs as well as other illnesses that are caused by stress because quitting smoking IS stressful.

    I'm new here and hope it's okay to post to an old(ish) thread. Yes, developing a ravenous appetite has been an issue for me too for about three years, and now I've been diagnosed with celiacs (well, half diagnosed with positive bloods and negative biopsy) it's all adding up. Last year I went to see my doctor about putting on two stone and being starving...

    I totally agree with sa1937 and Jestgar. My blood test came back positive (not significantly high, but positive nevertheless) and I've recently received the biopsy result which is negative. I've been gluten free for a couple of weeks now with some improvement. I won't be seeing my GI for quite some time, so he conveyed a messaged to me via his secretary...

    Hello Suzanne, 40

    Ditto! Many thanks to all posters too!

    I'm a newbie here and can't find where else to say thanks for such a wonderfully helpful and informative site, so I hope this forum will do. I've learned more at Celiac.com in a few hours than I ever learned from all the doctors I've seen about my celiac issues, and the support here has been immediate - no need to wait an eternity for the next medical consultation...

    Thanks so much everyone for your very helpful replies. Yes, diagnosed celiacs do, but not NCGI, which is very unfair considering they have the same additional expense of gluten-free dieting. So yes, I will certainly push for a celiac diagnosis not only for this reason but especially for the fact that, sadly, you get taken more seriously with...

    Thank you very much, ladies. I appreciate your quick and helpful responses. I
