    Thanks for the responses. It's so hard to figure this stuff out. I should try an elimination diet. I wonder if my body will be able to tolerate more fiber down the road once I'm completely healed? I am dairy free right now too.

    also it was an organic brand of rice - Lundberg. Says gluten free on it. What brands of rice are not safe?

    no, we are all gluten free except one loaf of bread for hubby to make sandwiches in a separate area of the kitchen. we are very careful. i used a frenchs sauce and kroger catsup and some real maple syrup all yesterday. maybe one of those? ok, and i had some kirtland brand corn chips that say gluten free on them. they are a mission product and have been...

    HI all, I have been gluten free for 6 months. The first 5 months I felt great and the last month has been really rocky, even though I have been more careful. it seems the more careful I am, the worse I feel! I eat little porcessed foods-maybe some catsup that I've verified is gluten free and a few other condiments but not many at all. the rest is whole...

    thanks, everyone. I agree! So we are a gluten free house now! the hardest part is finding gluten free snacks for my girls. they eat lots of fruit, etc but on the go it's harder to think what i can pack with me for a snack for them. and things just got really expensive. like bread! but i know it's worth it. thanks for the help!

    I have eaten out 3 times since diagnosis with only one favorabe result (PF changs). Was baking some with wheat flours (for my family) but haven't done that for months. I take care of my 2-year old twins and they eat gluten (bread, goldfish snacks, soups, etc). Dinners are always gluten free. I realize the risk of cross contamination with cooking for my...

    Hi, I'm a bit discouraged. I was diagnosed at the end of March and have been gluten free since. I've been really careful. At 4 months I got my blood work done again because I want to get pregnant asap. (Im 35- feel like clock is ticking - have 2 year old twins and 2 miscarriages). My lab results at 4 months were good but still evidence of gluten. ...

    Hi, can anyone tell me what deamidated gliadin, Abs IgA and IgG measure. I understand what ttg measures but I can't seem to figure this one out. Does it tell me if I'm getting gluten in my diet still (after several months of gluten-free)? is this an old test? Not all doctors seem to run it with the celiac panel. thank you!

    Thanks! It really is tough! I wonder how long it takes for the numbers to come down? My doctor thought it was possible to have them normalize in 6 weeks. That seems fast to me. My ttg IgA went from 100 to 12 in 4 months with anything under 3 being normal. Does that mean I'm almost there and it just takes a while to drop or is that hidden gluten in...

    Hi, I was diagnosed 5 months ago with celiac and want to get pregnant as soon as possible. So far my OBGYN and GI Specialist think it's ok to try now. I am worried though. I don't have any signs of malnutrition but as of 6 weeks ago, my bloodwork still showed I was ingesting gluten. I am very strict and not sure how that is happening. Is it ok to try...
