Is this celiac?
Beverage replied to Hmart's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each? -

I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats...

Yes it's so frustrating. Gluten is everywhere! Any airborne gluten possibilities? Home remodel projects? Any pets eating gluten (they eat, lick themselves, you pet them....). Sickest glutening I got was from taking care of my neighbor's chickens, they would get all excited, kick up the shavings which had their food in it, the coop would get filled with airborne...

Beverage replied to James47's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I was diagnosed with Celiacs in 2015. I come from ethnic backgrounds that regularly drink a few glasses of wine or beer with dinner every night. Now that I have been gluten free for 10 years, I definitely have noticed that I gradually wanted that less and less. Now I just have 1 glass with Sunday dinner, and do not want more. Maybe I have just gotten out... -
Purposefully Glutening Myself?
Beverage replied to annamarie6655's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Wow. Well, I do believe education can do wonders to open peoples' eyes. Many will get it, but some will always stay closed, and you can't battle that forever. Your family members have an increased chance of Celiacs themselves (and need to regularly get the blood screening test), so they do need some basic info for their own health. Maybe people... -
How is it going with changing your doggies' food? Hope it helps.

Are you exposed to any airborne sources of gluten? We have an older house and constantly fixing something. Cutting into old wall board or plaster can release gluten into the air. Also, the sickest i ever got was from taking care of my neighbor's chickens, they get excited and kick up everything, air filled with dust. Sure enough, their food contained...

For the blood screening test or any other testing, make sure you continue eating gluten every day until all testing is concluded. I'm traveling right now, but hopefully someone else can provide the link on how much you need. I think it's about 4 slices of gluten bread a day.

I strongly agree with others about processed gluten free foods, like breads and pasta, being bad for us. Read the labels, full of this starch and that starch, seed oils that are inflammatory, etc. Before you were celiac, you probably wouldn't even touch something with those ingredients. I do much better with whole foods, meat, veggies, a little fruit. I made...

Could you be having acid reflux? I used to get it soooo bad before I was diagnosed, now very rarely. I didnt have stomach upset, aka silent reflux, but pain in chest (thought I was having a heart attack) and food would get stuck from the esophagus irritation. The things here really helped, especially raising head of bed, sip of apple cider vinegar before...

Still unsure.....
Beverage replied to badastronaut's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
You said the colonoscopy showed no damage. Did you also have an endoscopy? The upper colon is where celiac damage would be detected via endoscopy, not the colon. -

My college aged step grand daughter, diagnosed with Celiacs 2 years ago, did get a reaction after kissing her new boyfriend. It was driving her nuts trying to figure it out until I asked her if she'd been kissing anybody. She went beet red. They did some testing of the situation, and thought that was the source. For her, having him drink something and...

nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?
Beverage replied to lehum's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I contacted nuts.com and they responded with: They are not shared on processed lines or contaminants. They are on an exclusively gluten free line.
