ARCHIVED Are Sympoms Worse After Not Ingesting Gluten And Then Ingesting It?
kbenj1 replied to littlekimmie's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I am new to the gluten free diet, and still trying to figure out exactly what is wrong with me. I have started a gluten free diet as a trial, and after going completely gluten free for two weeks I accidentally ingested some gluten in a rotisserie chicken. I had the same throat problem as you! I thought I was crazy! It felt like I had something stuck in my... -
ARCHIVED Blood Test Negative, But Could It Be Celiac?

My blood work only lists IgG and IgA. It doesn't break those tests down the way you did. I will ask my doctor about it. I have been gluten free for 16 days now, and have felt better than I have in years. But my symptoms have started to recur after eating the publix chicken(see above post). Not sure if it is gluten or something else. It's been over 48 hours... -

There are autoimmune issues in my family-my mother has 7 different ones, and I'm wondering if she has celiac but doesn't know it. My daughter has stomach problems and eczema, and I'm wondering if she... -
ARCHIVED Newly Gluten Free...
kbenj1 replied to Kyla72's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I am in the same boat as you. I have had all kinds of symptoms that made getting through the day difficult. All my blood work has come back perfect, yet going gluten free has made all the difference. I feel like a new person! I tried the diet on my own without having any biopsies, but am scared to go back to gluten. I recently had a small amount of gluten... -
ARCHIVED Blood Test Negative, But Could It Be Celiac?

Hi, I am new to the gluten free diet. I tested negative for celiac in a blood test, but all of my symptoms disappeared once I went gluten free. Last night I ate a publix rotisserie chicken, and within an hour I hade aphthos ulcers on my throat, I was nauseous, my stomach was cramping, and I was gassy. My doctor thinks that the chicken was bad, but I think...
