  1. If it's the EMA IgA, it will only read positive or negative (with no numbers). They probably ran the Antigliadin IgA. For that test, normal levels are less than 18. For the tTG IgA, normal levels are less than 13, but I suspect it'll be the antigliadin Now, one positive test isn't enough to diagnose you completely or completely dismiss celiac. It...
  2. With natural and artificial flavorings, you always need to check with the company except if they're in a product made by Kraft. If there's gluten in a flavoring, modified food starch, etc., it will be listed on the label. See this article for a complete explanation Open Original Shared Link Centrum is gluten-free, but I don't know about liquid vitamins...
  3. Open Original Shared Link Here it is
  4. With natural and artificial flavorings, you always need to check...they may or may not contain gluten. The same goes for modified food starch, which you should be checking, as well. With the company Kraft, however, you only need to read the label. If there is wheat in the natural flavors, it will be listed in parentheses. See this article: Open Original...
  5. Potatoes work well for me, too. Also, gluten-free chicken broth
  6. Good point...maybe she wants some suggestions for sweet gluten-free items? Here's an ENORMOUS gluten-free candy list: Open Original Shared Link
  7. I got these suggestions for coping when you've been glutened from another forum:

  9. Also this list--but it's not as good as the glutenfreedrugs.com list: Open Original Shared Link
  10. Here's another link to supposedly gluten-free drugs...though the glutenfreedrugs.com list is better-- Open Original Shared Link
  11. This is a very good list to have--even though this specific one doesn't list gluten-free products, it's helpful to have for contacting manufacturers--that way you don't need to go to a grocery store or hunt the internet to find the phone number.

  13. My collection has since grown substantially, but on the Delphi board, there's someone there, Mireille, who is constantly posting there and seems to be a true celiac expert . Anyway, she posted her collection on that board awhile ago: Have make an extensive research to retrieve this link goldmine as I had the msg # in my note book in Canada but I'm in...
  14. Welcome...aww...if you had come here first we could've saved you the trouble : Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link
  15. Yep . Also, you can make your search more specific with "more options" (to determine how many days back you want to search, a specific member name, etc.). I find the most helpful thing is the advanced usage (see the link to "advanced usage help" under the search option):
  16. I, too, was constantly craving sweets...in particular, chocolate. I went cold turkey a few days ago and I've cut it out completely--I can use the calories and fat, but I don't want to rot my teeth . Could you please elaborate? The smiley: doesn't really tell us that much
  17. Oooh...did you have a bad experience before? I had a really good experience with my first endoscopy (which sounds much easier, though) so the second was no big deal. If it was bad...just try to take the mindset that you'll just take care of business, get it done, and during the process, just look towards the near future when you'll be done with colonoscopies...
  18. Michael, are you trying to get our help in thinking of the brand name? Or did you want to recommend it, since it's gluten-free?
  19. 1. Yea--you're a guest if you haven't yet registered. Guests cannot post or anything--they can just read posts. An anonymous member is the same as any other member--it's just that at log in, the person checked the box that makes them anonymous--in other words, makes it so that others cannot see that they're on. 2. A hot topic is one with more replies...
  20. You can order them online at the Open Original Shared Link. Browse for objects you want, add them to your cart, and then click on your shopping bag in the upper right corner of the screen to check out. They also have a store locator--type in your city, state, or zipcode and they list stores that carry their products.
  21. Are you saying that Coca-Cola has caramel coloring that contains barley malt? It seems very unlikely to me, since nobody else is getting sick from them and Coca-Cola is a huge company, thus, their products are used by so many celiacs. It wouldn't be worth lying about, anyway.
  22. We love to have you here, but if you're interested in finding a board centered around the UK, rather than mostly the US and some Canada, there's a UK board here: Open Original Shared Link
  23. Gluten is definitely passed through breastmilk. There have been other threads on this and it is pretty unanamous. If you want to test, you need to wait awhile, and therefore, should keep gluten in your baby's diet--through breastmilk. If you have no intention of testing, you should start the gluten-free diet, because it IS passed through breastmilk.
  24. I know--wouldn't that be amazing?! I've only met Kristina (mysuicidalturtle) in person...but I'll meet Molly (flagbabyds) at the conference...that'll make two celiacs from the board
