Shampoo & Conditioner
cyclinglady replied to Wisconsin woman's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
It can take up to a year or longer for antibodies to resolve. Just stay the course. Do not get hung up on the numbers. As long as they are not going up, you are fine! Know that the antibodies tests were designed to help diagnose celiac disease and not really to monitor it. But it... -

Atkins Gluten Free bars
cyclinglady replied to EmilyBermuda's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have other allergies, so finding bars is not easy for me. They sure are convenient though. -
Coricidin HBP Cold & Flu
cyclinglady replied to Myki's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I checked the website. They list only the active ingredients. I think you need to call them or see if the inactive list is on the box or insert unless someone else on the forum has used this product. Good Luck! -

False Positive Blood Tests
cyclinglady replied to Aitcher's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I would strongly suggest you go gluten free. You did have a positive TTG. Like I said, it can be easy to miss damaged areas or you could just be starting to develop celiac. The AIP diet has helped so many people who have autoimmune disease and it is gluten free. Which is telling. Gluten is... -
Stuff that that happens! No worries. I am confident, if you scrub off the spatula and run it through the dishwasher, it will be fine. Usually it is recommended to get new utensils, (e.g. wooden spoons), due to years of gluten contact.

Atkins Gluten Free bars
cyclinglady replied to EmilyBermuda's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
This one should be fine. It is labeled gluten free. You said you did not feel well after eating them. It could be due to additional intolerances to dairy, soy, nuts, or corn which are in these bars and not gluten. But if I ate something that made me feel sick, I would avoid it. How... -
After My Celiac Disease Diagnosis, I Turned to Reishi Mushrooms for Relief
cyclinglady commented on Kansas Bowling's article in Autumn 2020 Issue
The author was never diagnosed with celiac disease based on her own admission I found on her earlier January 2020 posts: “Hi - found out I had celiac disease almost a year ago (but think I’ve had it for about a year and a half). My blood test came back negative but I hadn’t eaten ANYTHING four ...- 10 comments

Atkins Gluten Free bars
cyclinglady replied to EmilyBermuda's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
True, but some celiacs are definitely more sensitive than others based on forum members who have DH and have reported rashes from gluten free labeled products. Personally, there are better bars out in the market for celiacs. The Atkin bars are made in a facility with wheat (which may... -
False Positive Blood Tests
cyclinglady replied to Aitcher's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It is possible that your GI missed damaged areas. I think your other autoimmune diseases (Sjogrens and RA) can cause the slightly elevated TTG IgA. The University of Chicago: “Yes, blood work can be falsely positive, as can any test in medicine, especially at low titers. However, i...
