    I thought it was a good article and informative and fairly accurate.

    I think you are wise to lay off for a few days. I took Prilosec for years, but some time into the gluten free diet, I no longer had the need for it.

    You felt ill taking this medicine and he upped your dosage? Here is some information about the side effects of Prilosec. I have taken it, without issues, but it's not uncommon to have issues. Open Original Shared Link I'm not a doctor, but 80mg daily is a lot!

    www.CeceliasMarketplace.com www.Triumphdining.com Both can be very helpful in the first year, while you learn to read labels. The preference is to be a good label reader and not to depend on manufacturers listings, due to frequent changes in product formulations.

    I would encourage you and your wife to have a full metabolic panel, if you have not done that. Your primary doctor can do that. I assume that you know that being gluten free, will not render accuracy in testing. And gene testing can only indicate a pre-disposition. But, that can be a piece of the puzzle. I have have joint and fluid issues in my joints...

    As we continue to keep our health, I think we often forget how stressful it can be to the ones closest to us. Many times they choose to be inconvenienced to accommodate us. And, I'm certain it can be frustrating.

    As the legal standard is not established in the US for products labeled "gluten free", it is totally voluntary at this time. Listing wheat as an ingredient is required. Label reading will become second nature soon. And trusting companies such as Kraft and Con Agra is a good place to start, as they label all sources of gluten.

    Everyone is different! The variables here can be the severity of your damage and diligence to the diet. It took time to create damage in your intestines and will take some time to heal. You can start to feel better in a few weeks, if you eat well and carefully. There are several thread about cooking and meals that might be helpful to you. It's pretty...

    From a MedScape Reference: Although villous atrophy is not exclusive of celiac disease, it is considered a crucial finding. Other causes of blunted villi include tropical sprue, malnutrition, intolerance to cow's milk, soy protein intolerance, and infectious gastroenteritis. However, most of these conditions can be readily excluded on the basis of clinical...

    There can be other causes for villi destruction. ... it's not exclusive to Celiac Disease. Celiac is the least of the monsters.

    Positive blood work is considered a diagnosis. AGA is a relatively new test and is pretty accurate. If I were you, I would consider myself diagnosed and would continue with the gluten free diet. And endo at this point could indicate the the level of damage. But, it might not be a bad idea to have a base line exam. For those of us with intestinal distress...

    Yup, it does take a while to feel better for some. Some a few days, some a few years. . I would also include dairy in your elimination diet. After a few weeks many people can re-introduce dairy without issue. And I want to add that the gluten free learning curve is pretty steep. Depend on this site to guide you through these next few weeks...
