ARCHIVED I'm So Confused On How To Proceed
elye replied to Mrs.Doyle's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hear, hear! What do you care? You have your diagnosis. For many, many people, myself included, and for some professionals (but they are harder to find), the only truly accurate diagnostic tool for gluten issues is dietary response. False negatives on the blood panel are common - - likely a third of all negatives, and these are with people who are consuming... -
ARCHIVED Can Stool Test Show Antibodies That Were Missesd By Blood Test?
elye replied to Sandi*'s topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Nope, he did not have any genetic testing done. His brother was diagnosed with a positive blood panel about three years ago. We're certain it's on their mom's side - - she has had symptoms all of her life, but will probably always eat gluten. -

ARCHIVED Can Stool Test Show Antibodies That Were Missesd By Blood Test?
elye replied to Sandi*'s topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm one of the "lucky" ones who got a positive diagnosis from the blood panel, and damage visible in the subsequent endoscope. My husband, however, had all of the classic symptoms and had a negative blood result and negative biopsy. If memory serves me, his IGA number was low. He decided to spring for the Enterolab stool test, where the antibodies were... -
ARCHIVED Diagnostic Frustration
elye replied to frogrun's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Many, many people, myself included, believe that the only truly accurate diagnosis of a gluten problem is dietary response. You have your diagnosis - - a screamingly bang-on diagnosis: when you eat gluten, you get weak, sick, rashy, and sore. How much more accurate a result do you need? I say listen to your body LONG before you listen to any "tests" that... -

Good morning, Psillies! This morning in our local paper there was a big picture on the front page of hundreds of Chinese people squashed together in the Yangze River, trying to escape the 40+ C heat wave. I was suddenly picturing our Sooooozle and Pahteigh's faces amongst them.... . How about baby blue bra and panties? Really lovely, lingerie...
