Every time I get exposed to gluten (4 times this year) my Dr wants to test me. I have always been seronegative. I was confirmed celiac through genetics ( I have two genes and considered extremely high risk) plus endoscopy after a three week exposure. Do your Dr's have you tested every time you get exposed? I think for me its a waste of time and money...

Thanks for the recommendations. Usually I make my own pizza dough out of my flour but that day I decided to try the restaurants pizza crust at home. No good. I will never do a take home or eat there again. I've only eaten there twice in a year and the first time I did not get sick. Never again. I'm sorry you had cross contamination issues too. People...

On Dec. 8 I accidentally ate gluten. I am not sure how much but I know the restaurant. I don't eat out often and actually I bought two pizza crusts and two breads there. One of those two things had gluten in them. I started out just not feeling right that night then woke up at 3 am with stomach pains and diarrhea. yay! From there is just got worse. Over the...

I get floating ones especially before going gf. Today I had them and earlier I had them this week and I suspect I am getting gluten somewhere. Once I saw that was "normal" for celiacs I was relieved.

Thank you for your response! My job is not my practicum job but it is a permanent job. I am their music teacher for two hours in the mornings and then the rest of the day I am the co teacher or assistant teacher in the preschool room (3-4 yr olds). I did tell them I have celiac. I am going to approach it again, they are super supportive so I think I can make...

Thank you! I also have memory loss and cognition problems which were diagnosed by a neuropsychologist before my celiac diagnosis but AFTER I had been gluten free for two years. I am a preschool music teacher part of the time and the rest of the time I am a assistant preschool teacher. I am almost done with school. The music teaching part is nice because...

Thank you for the info. I do know the difference between Celiac and true allergies. I do have a high positive blood IgE to wheat. PLUS celiac. I also have a tree nut allergy. Unfortunately, I don't have any DH rashes now. If that is what it is. I am pretty good about staying away from gluten. The rashes I had prior to going GF went away except when I...

Hi all, I am newly diagnosed celiac, last Friday, and my brother was also diagnosed the Monday prior. I am not new to the gluten free community as I was first diagnosed with a wheat allergy 4-1/2 years ago. So I bet you are wondering how I got a celiac diagnosis being gluten free for that long. Well, I have had multiple exposers with not so typical...
