    I had some of your problems before being diagnosed (went 22 years with the disease) but crashes were only frequent later on. I remember that after eating a lunch with anything containing gluten, I immediately went into "sleepy" mode....it wasn't fun when I was moderating a medical congress and fell asleep during the talk :/ Regarding your doubt, I really...

    I would forgive him if he was really old-school but the sad part is that he finished his residency 1 year ago. He has no excuse not to know cutting edge research on that topic

    Thanks for all the kind advice. Regarding the doubts, I haven't done an IgG/IgA control test as Gastros say they never do it in my country because it's very rare for one person to be deficient on both IgG/IgA and they always prescribe both serotype antibodies. I went to my GP today and she said that with my thyroid levels there was no need to suspect Hashi...

    It could be a glutening but as I said, I don't remember eating acidental gluten (Most people joke with me due to how paranoid I am with gluten cross-contamination. I cook my own food and I exchanged all utensils when I discovered I was celiac for new ones ) Nope, but both TSH, T3, T4 and PTH have normal values in my blood test so that was why I was not...

    I had these done: -tTG IgA and tTG IgG -DGP IgA and DGP IgG -EMA IgA Gluten leeching in my diet is hard since I have been eating as I always have done . I thought about developing another autoimmune disorder but with those symptoms I was mostly thinking about Hashimoto's Thryoiditis or MS and both have already been excluded as my thyroid is pretty...

    Hello everyone, I am writing this post because some doubts regarding my celiac disease have been rising lately and I want to consult more knowledgable people than me I'm 24 and my story starts 3 years ago. After an Appendectomy, a few weeks later I started having extreme fatigue, drowsiness, weakness that seemed to worsen after eating bread in breakfast...

    Thanks everyone for all the advice! @1desperateladysaved: Yes, it was really lucky that we spoke in class about celiac and I had the idea of getting tested for it, regardless of my doctor's stubborness, otherwise I would still be misdiagnosed (most people in my family were saying my symptoms were all due to stress and hypocondria and were planning on scheduling...

    Also another doubt: Since I didn't do the antitransglutaminase test, can I truly say I'm celiac or diseases other than celiac disease can cause villous atrophy Marsh 3? It's just to know if I should ask the doctor to do the test even if the biopsy is already positive. Thanks!

    Good evening everyone, It's my first post here so I might as well introduce myself. I'm 22 years old and from Portugal. Ever since I had an appendicectomy a year ago, I began having loads of symptoms such as loss of focus, memory, constipation, bone pain, speedy heartbeats and the normal symptoms of celiac. The situation has worsened (I stopped being...
