Sorry if this has been asked many times before.
But Sarsons Malt Vinegar, is it safe to put on my chips?
Trying to eat totally gluten free, but on doing a internet search i find i'm getting many different opinions on Sarsons Malt Vinegar.
the gluten-free food checker APP says it's OK and so does Coeliac UK, but many sites say avoid at all costs!
Very Confusing!

Yes Sugarcube, i think i had a blood test called TTG IGA ANTIBODY
So what does that actually mean? Why didn't they do a full celiac panel? or is that the next step, but my doctor didn't mention it.
I'm just gonna keep eating as normal up to the biopsy, so i get the correct diagnosis.

My doctor thinks i might have coeliac disease, but i hope not, the thought of not being allowed to eat all the things i love to eat for the rest of my days is daunting! Changes to social life, eating out, bbq's and the all the other joys of life would be immense!
I have had two blood tests done for celiac disease, the first one came back as 7.2 u/ml (normal range 0.0 - 6.9 u/ml)
The second one which was taken about a month later came back as 22.0 u/ml
What do these results generally suggest? I am a 47 year old UK male. 13 stone. 6ft tall.
I'm booked into see the gut specialist next month and to get a biopsy done.
My symptoms which have been going on for about 8 months now include bouts of diarrhea, slight upper stomach aches, fatigue/weak feeling joints in lower body like legs, knees, hips and feet, tingling/burning/stinging feeling in buttock area and backs of legs. slight pins and needles in fingers and toes, slight bloating, small patchy rashes/dry skin that come and go.
All of my symptoms are never really that bad, but they all just come and go and are a bit uncomfortable, sometimes they do get worse, but it doesn't stop me getting on with my daily life. Just want to get to the bottom of what could be wrong.
When i eat breads, cakes & cereals (which i do a lot) i don't really notice that it makes my symptoms any worse, so can this be down to gluten?
Any advice much appreciated.
Regards J.
