  1. I just got back my test results and this is what they said: Gliadin AB, Iga (GLIAD IGA) - 1 units (0-19 being negative) TISS TRANSGL IGA (TTG IGA) - 1 Units (0-19 being negative) IMMUNOGLOBULIN A - 19 mg/dl (68-378 being normal) So, while my immunoglobulin level is really low/deficient, are my other test levels low enough to...
  2. How long after going gluten free does steatorrhea or oily stools start to go away? This is probably my least favorite symptom. Does this take longer since it requires the intenstines to start healing?
  3. I'll have to check this book out.
  4. I wish there was more research out there on this topic. It just seems too unlikely that these changes in his behavior could just have happened at the exact moment we made this change.
  5. I just ordered some Almond Flour so that I can try making that pizza dough! Looks awesome in the picture! I just wish almond flour was a little cheaper. Thanks for the recommendation!
  6. Does anyone have a favorite gluten-free vegan cookbook? I have the Gluten-Free Vegan and Gluten-Free Vegan Comfort Foods cookbook. But, I'm hoping to find some more cookbooks worth having and possibly a baking cookbook with good bread recipes that gluten-free and vegan! Any suggestions?
  7. I've never put any of my flours in the fridge, but then again I've always ignored that my peanut butter jar says to put it in the fridge too. Though, I agree that soy flour is just not worth having since it does seem to go rancid quickly (and then subsequently ruins what ever you accidentally put it in). But, unless you are planning to take several months...
  8. My wife and I recently decided to have our whole family go gluten free. I'd been gluten free for quite some time now, but we'd wondered if doing this for our son might help with some of his behaviors. He is not diagnosed with any autism spectrum disorder. He is profoundly gifted (he took a community college math course at age 7) and so we are never sure...
  9. I was actually skin prick tested for my allergies about a week before I went gluten free completely. So, it seems a bit too coincidental to think that the allergies happened to disappear right after being tested and at the same time I gave up gluten. Also, the few times I've done 'gluten tests' (aka torture myself to see if gluten really does affect me...
  10. Has anyone else found that allergies to cats, dust mites, and ragweed have disappeared after giving up gluten? Is that even logical that they could be connected?
  11. I really appreciate all the responses. I'm working through my second trial period of going gluten-free before I test my reaction to putting some gluten back in my system. I think one more round with similar results will be all the proof I need that my body is not fond of gluten. Hopefully it won't be as terrible as last time. But, I'll be glad to at least...
  12. Thank you for the response! I do wonder if I should go ahead and be tested for celiacs. Is the treatment any different or is the only real treatment giving up gluten? Because, I figure if gluten is causing my latest symptoms, then I'm probably better off just accepting my body does not like the stuff much.
  13. I recently tried going 2 weeks without gluten because I was tired of always being bloated and having stomach aches (and other assorted stomach related symptoms-aka less than perfect stools). After 2 weeks of making sure nothing I ate had any gluten in it, I had a large piece of fully gluten-ed bread (I know because I baked it). About an hour later, I vomited...
