  1. I have a love hate relationship with Dr. Oz, he introduced Celiac to me but he gave pretty crappy information so I went gluten-free without testing. With all the symptoms and negative testing for every other disease my symptoms could be plus a rash that *may* be DH according to my GP, I consider myself a celiac. I hate to bring this up but more and more...
  2. I been gluten free 18 months. I have a cross contimination accident and I was sick for days. My what ever it is bad and triggering by gluten. It's all over my back and face. Every time I get sick I appears. It takes weeks to clear. Nothing works. You can't conceal it and its bad and looks digusting. I am at a loss. For a while before I knew DH existed...
  3. I have nonconfirmed celiac. I went gluten free before I got testing, so elimination of other causes began. It's not fodmaps, or IBS, or other allegries or thyroid. My GP says its like every case he has seen. I think I have DH, because I have a red itchy rash that won't go away and gets worse after glutenings. It's annoying, ugly and itchy. I am thinking...
  4. I keep losing weight. I eat about 2000+ calories a day, I have lost 15 pounds. I was 155 a month ago and I rapidly have lost 15 pounds but I can eat whatever. I try to eat gluten free. The only thing that could happen is cross-contamination. I am having GI issues. I was actually overweight, but now, I am 140 and declining. I take gluten free supplements...
  5. Both my primary care and pain management doctor are 99% is celiac. There is a small chance it is severe gluten intolerance but with relatives on both sides of my family having biopsy confirmed celiac, my GI symptoms went away without gluten and my migraines became less frequent. Since I dumbly went gluten free before testing I have not done testing yet....
  6. I have gluten-free corn dogs, and I read the labels on everything. I am 17. My mom hates to cook, so we either eat out or do oven premade meals (those are almost never gluten free so I eat frozen dinners). Yes, I have shown them stuff on mayo clinc, and other very reliable sources, but they believe that since I got it approximately 1 year ago that it can...
  7. That kinda what my primary doctor told me. I had a family history of celiac, and other health problems that astronomically rose the chance of celiac. I went gluten free with any tests because I believed that it would be a 1 week experiment that would end in no improvements in my symptoms. But when I thought about testing, I would have to spend weeks miserable...
  8. Long story short - I started the gluten-free diet due to have 9/10 of the signs of the disease. I now know I should have been tested first, but I am very sensitive and can't afford to be sick for 8-12 weeks. I was diagnosed with celiac disease through extreme symptoms and a strong family history on both sides, and a benefit from the gluten free diet. I have...
  9. I am the only celiac in my family, so meals are a challenge. My parents do not believe that cross contamination is an issue. We eat out 4-5 days a week and I usually opt for frozen dinners. The only fairly safe places for me are chick-fil-a, jack in the box (mine has a dedicated fryer), and in-n-out. Everywhere else I can't eat anything with an reaction...
