First of all, since the beggining of the year I have been eating light gluten, if any, do to "clean eating".

Immunoglobulin A (IgA), S (results) 217 (unit) mg/dL (ref. value) 60 - 337 Under these results is says: Negative... -

ARCHIVED So Stressed! This Is All I Can Think About.. Please Help! :(
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
And I have been trying to get a copy of my test results, just to see, but the doctors office hasnt replied back :/ -
I have a long list of symptoms that go along with celiac disease, and I have had them for awhile, I just always thought they were normal. About 2 years ago is when things started to get worse. The begining of this year I joined a nutrition challenge, so I was pretty much cutting out bread and eating natural foods. I had a few slip ups and then i tried a low...

ARCHIVED My Mom Is Getting Tested For Celiac Disease..help?
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hmm alright, thanks. I have many other symptoms too btw, I've looked at other possible causes and gluten intolerance seems to be the best match. it just sucks that they can't really test for NCGI. -
ARCHIVED My Mom Is Getting Tested For Celiac Disease..help?
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
She is getting tested by the same doctor that I did..he did not test the full celiac panel, plus I have been eating low gluten unintentionally. How can I ensure my mom gets the right results?? I am still convinced I have the disease because I have unexplained anemia and other deficiencies.. Now my grandma got tested for it because she has the rashes... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Before Endoscopy?
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thanks! I am not even getting an endoscopy anymore, so I'm just focusing on eliminating the gluten.I slowly start to cook different things. Thank you for the ideas -
ARCHIVED The Test Was Negative:(
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Makes sense!! Thank you for the explanation! I have a loooong list of symptoms, so I'm not going to even list them. I just didn't want to be acting like a "wannabe"celiac, if that makes sense?I wanted to be sure that the doctor said I was one, before I tell anyone else..but I will just say I'm a celiac now! Sooo happy thaaaat I'll finally get better... -
ARCHIVED Negative Celiac, Positive Anemia?
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
This is frustrating for me because I don't know what to believe! The doctor said it's at least gluten intolerance...but I still believe it's celiac.does gluten intolerance have to be just as strict as a celiacs diet? Because I feel like I'm more likely to not care all that much about cross contamination.. Oh, and I have been anemic for awhile..was taking... -
ARCHIVED The Test Was Negative:(
taynichaf replied to taynichaf's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
No, it was not a full panel..I asked for one, but they could only test for two out of the full panel. I will call and get a copy of the test. Thank you all <3 but is there any different between the lifestyles of gluten intolerance and celiac? Since I tested negative for celiac I feel like I don't have to be sooo strict..but I'm not sure. -

ARCHIVED The Test Was Negative:(
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The doc said I atleast have gluten intolerance and either way can't eat gluten..but I have been eating fairly gluten free for awhile, unintentionally..aaand he only tested for two things, not the full panel, and I'm still anemic despite taking iron pills.. I think it was a false negative, but maybe not.. Is there anything else I can do to check? He would... -

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Before Endoscopy?
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Can I quit eating gluten after three blood tests, but before the endoscopy? My doctor said I could...but everything I've read says to not go gluten free until after tests...how long will the damage show up on the endoscopy after not eating gluten? I'm tired of feeling like crappp, plus I wanna be a little better by my birthday in a few days. Thanks!! -
ARCHIVED Prometheus Celiac Panel Accuracy?
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
How accurate is the prometheus celiac panel? It's the only celiac test I could get, but I know it doesn't test all of the things for celiac..but I am also getting tested for iron and b12 deficiencies..so hopefully this will help the results? -
ARCHIVED Negative Test?
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm just so scared that I will be one of the many people that test negative for celiacs, even if I do have it..so what would be the next step?? -

ARCHIVED It All Makes Sense Now, If I Have Celiac Disease.
taynichaf posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Sooo much to say...but after a year of trying to lose weight, I've come across celiac disease and the more I read about it, the more I thought I had it.. My symptoms now are depression, anxiety, irritability, bloating, tingling hands and feet, fatigue, muscle weakness, very gassy, frequent bowl moments and sometimes diarrhea..and very tired! Oh and I also... -
You sound exactly like me!...same situation! I am also paying that I am a celiac, because I know there has to be a reason for the person I've changed into..
