Thanks for the advice. So when you go to a restaurant do you get funny looks asking for that. How do you go about asking for those things?

Is it safe for a Celiac to go to a restaurant and order a salad? no croutons of course and Gluten free dressing. Has anyone reacted from cross contamination with salad?

Oh my!! Some people these days just are so ignorant and the worst part is the doctor that didn't correct her! I have had a problem with people that are doing the gluten-free diet as a trend. They just don't understand how serious it is.

I was diagnosed with Celiac last Friday, tTG was 74, still waiting on my scope which is this Friday. I was wondering with Celiac do I need to avoid beauty products with gluten? How careful do I need to be with cross contamination. Should I use my own utensils and cooking surfaces (I still have to cook for my non-gluten-free husband). Do I need to avoid dairy...

Hello Triomam. I have had two blood draws done. one last month and one last week. My first tTG was 11 and second was 74. My Gliadin also increased from 10 to 20. The GI doctor told me that it is defiantly Celiac and I go in for a Scope on Friday. I am nervous to see how it looks and how much damage is done if any. Have you seen a GI doctor?

Thanks so much, I will defiantly check those out. How long have you been gluten free?

Ok, Thanks I will do that. Do you have Celiac? What symptoms have you had?

Hello, I am 25 years old and I never considered Celiac as the cause of my stomach issues. I self diagnosed myself with IBS but I always just thought that I has sensitive intestines but never thought of Celiac. My Celiac journey started about a week before this last Christmas. I broke out in this weird rash while on vacation. I didn't think much of it...
