Hello Everyone, Thank you for all of the invaluable information. It has helped my friend tremendously. I have another question. Their condition has constituted a living arrangement unlike one that I am used too and I am wondering if this is normal or not. He/She works at home and does not travel. If he/she rarely does travel it is an insane...

All of you, thank you very much for this information thus far. However, I did learn something today. I did not know this but this person was only 99.99% Gluten Free. He/She occasionally in rare circumstances would allow themselves to eat for example soy sauce from a restaurant that contained wheat. This is bizarre to me because I thought we had this conversation...

Hello, This post is on the behalf of someone else that I know. This person has experienced Level (100) pain almost to where they will pass out. Happens around 2:00 A.M. in the morning. They say that it is like a bowl movement trying to pass through their system and once it passes they feel relief. Remember I am saying Level (100) pain with two (00) zeros...

WoW. Troll? I think not. You are just trying to provoke me to get me banned. If that's how you guys feel then just ban me. Some support you are anyhow. You can clearly see my results and what have I have gone through. I have REAL proof that I have gone through all of this, with my Dad and myself. Not just results that I retyped on here. I have the...

Like I have said in all of my previous posts. I am not a medical doctor. I am probably wrong. Yes my Dad never received a Biopsy so we can not know for absolute certainty. This is purely my opinion. I may be in denial. There are probably a hundred of other things I haven't thought about. I have never asked for anyone to...

See this is where all of you are missing the point. Since you say smoking and cancer is just a great analogy well here you go. This is the exact point that I have been making all along. Please see article and link below. SMOKING - Alone can ... It may also turn the immune system against the body’s own cells. Some smokers which experience severe o...

Yes I agree that NCGS or Celiac does present major issues. One of my articles above mention that "slient Celiac" or NCGS is actually worse than Celiac because it can be left UN-daignosed leaving the person exposed. I personally kind of feel like I am in this category. My body has been fighting something for 5 years or more. None of my Doctors really had a...
-
This helps tremendously, thank you for your time. I believe I fall into the category of NCGS, but I will not know that for sure until I get a Biopsy, however, I will never know because I am not doing that unless my circumstances change. I am curious, are you personally eliminating gluten on a very strict diet or do you eat gluten? If you are...
-
I did want to thank you and everyone else. I really appreciate it. I can be a little stubborn. I am sure you and everyone else is right and I am wrong. However, right at this moment our agreeing to disagree actually doesn't matter because I am going on a 100% gluten free strict diet for a few years. When I get to the point in a few years about "thinking...

I have been reading the official stuff as well. Thank you for making sure. However, I wanted a layman's interpretation, general idea of how to think about it. I believe that blogger broke it down nicely. Yes I have good access to doctors in a large city, and have great insurance because I am currently working. I am thankful to God for that. I do work...
-
Thank you, my point is that usually more symptoms, or other levels are evident if Celiac is Present. I believe what is debate here is that some people have Gluten Intolerance that could or could not turn into Celiac in the future. I believe most people on this forum just want to play it safe and say hey, if my gut is under attack, whether you eat gluten...

Check this article out: Open Original Shared Link Gliadin Tests for Celiac Disease The first antibodies to gliadin that were used for celiac disease testing are called antigliadin, or AG, antibodies, which are available in both IgA and IgG forms. Most diagnostic laboratories run AG tests for both types of antibodies. More recently,...

Thank you for all of your help. Getting close to my last questions... Now that I am going 100% gluten free, how do I keep my grain diet in check. I was reading in this article that some people can feel tired. I think I have even felt this a little. Because they are not getting their balance diet of grains. Open Original Shared Link Is... -

Thank you for replying and double check. I really appreciate it. Well I live in an extremely highly populated area with a lot of huge new grocery stores that have massive gluten free sections within the store. I also have many restaurants that have gluten free options. I do not plan to move and there are many jobs available if I need to get a different...
-
I really appreciate your input. I get what you are saying. Why risk anything if you do not have to. Based on what you are saying you are helping me decide on not introducing gluten in my system every again. I would not want to one day wake up and trigger a random symptom that changes my life forever over something that now a days, not like when my dad first...

I just don't feel comfortable doing a biopsy and the doctors cutting a lot in my stomach, with also knowing that they could pick a few spots that are clean and still come back negative. Way to much to go through without a guarantee. I am satisfied with the level of information that I have received to know that I will be going gluten free, because I do have...

I do not want to make you angry, but I just don't see where it says you cannot cheat at all. I think that is up to the individual and how they feel. I will re-read the official sites again on gluten. But just like anything else. Everywhere it says do not drink, do not smoke, do not do drugs but people do it anyway. You all hear the stories, my grandfather... -
Can you please look at this response below? Why are you both saying two different things? This is why I am so confused. I have one person saying I don't have it and one person saying I do. It is a weak positive and I have heard that blood tests alone cannot gurantee you a diagnosis. Only multiple biopsy's can, not just one. I also have two different...

Hello Everyone, I have one other thread on here that a lot of people have tried to help me understand this disease. However I am getting confused in regard to understanding my results only. I want to know exactly what my results mean, or possibly mean, and do do I have Celiac Right Now or Not? I am only going to post my results below and only want...
