So i got my results from Quest, though my Dr. has yet to call me about them, so we'll see what he says, but my Tissue Transglutaminase AB, IGA result was a 1, greater than 4 being postive. So, I dunno wtf to do with this information because I have been gluten-free for like 5 months, went back on it for 4 days a week before the test (then went back off because...

Thank you. I am worried about my children and also my mother. I think if I test positive for a wheat allergy (even if I never make it to being diagnosed with celiac) she will likely take the steps to change her diet and/or get tested herself. I have one child with high-functioning autism and one who has some sort of undiagnosed intestinal issue. I took him...

Ahh ok. Thanks I can't imagine that even if everything comes back negative that I will ever risk eating wheat again. I was afraid I was going to have a stroke!

Yes, I know. Maybe I'm on the wrong forum.

Yeah, I think on Friday I am just doing the skin prick test? I assumed that they would order a blood antibody test, so that was my thinking with the re-introduction. I think I might actually be experiencing anaphalaxis, so I agree. I don't know that I will ever be able to do the celiac testing.

So, let's see if I can summarize this in a succinct way. It's a long story so I'll try to just hit on the pertinent points. In all three of my pregnancies I developed pregnancy-induced hypertension (no liver or kidney involvement like in pre-eclampsia). Each time I was pregnant I kept thinking if I was in better shape, if I ate better, if I did this, if I...

This is an old post, but I found it googling "Pee more yellow after going gluten-free". It's very interesting. My pee now looks like I am taking a multivitamin even though I'm not (still drinking plenty of water) and like the previous posters I now have the nastly asparagus smell when I eat it and I never did before. Yay for absorbing nutrients again!

Thank you! That's definitely something to consider, although the thought of eating gluten again

Hi! I'm new to the board, and new to my gluten-free life. I went gluten-free about 12 days ago, and by 3 days in I knew I would never eat wheat/gluten again. I'm 32 and have had a bizarre constelation of "conditions" and symptoms since puberty that seemed to be taking a greater toll on me with each passing year. Anxiety Depression IBS Scalp rash that...
