Need Help-daughter's Results In


WRowland

Recommended Posts

WRowland Newbie

Got my daughter's results in-she didn't get my DQ8(201) or my husbands DQ2(302)....

She's double DQ7(302). I was well prepared for explaining DQ2/DQ8 but not this.

What I can find about it, beyond "gluten sensitive" is that it's dark grey in a medium grey area. Some are saying that it may be a third celiac gene.

So, I'm looking for anyone with this genotype to chime in, especially symptoms they experienced, especially pain and neurological. This is a big life style change for her and she needs to recognize herself. This is a mother begging. Please help me help her.

Sorry, that's DQ2(201) and DQ8(302).

And DQ7(301). Can you tell I'm really upset?

I'm sorry to say it really is a grey zone and there are at this point no definite answers. I am DQ6 and DQ7, negative tTG with high positives on my antigliadin tests. I've been told that I probably shouldn't eat gluten if I feel better when I don't, but that eating gluten won't kill me. Without the genetic markers for celiac disease I do not need to worry about things like lymphoma.

What I think is going on is an antigliadin response but not an autoimmune response and that is an important distinction.

This should be considered good news, though I can understand your dismay over a vague diagnosis.

I've got 1 of those 0301's. I read somewhere that it's very similar to DQ8. I think I would probably email Dr Fine and ask what he think the significance of a double 0301 is.

Best wishes,

Matilda

      I think most of us, when we first got our diagnosis, imagined that going gluten free would be the magic the bullet that would restore us to perfect health. We soon find out that it usually isn't quite that simple and that celiac disease has long fingers.

      Thanks! I still have much to learn, I'd hoped going gluten-free would be a magic bullet and I'm learning my system is still very sensitive which is overwhelming and discouraging at times. Thanks for the yogurt tip! There is comfort in knowing that this is common during early healing and I'm not alone!

      Thanks so much for the response. Are you usually able to pinpoint a trigger when you get the pain again? What I didn’t share in my earlier post is that I also usually eat out on weekends (though I share celiacs/needs to be gluten-free) and I’ve also been under a lot of stress lately in my personal life. While I’m speculating that it’s the wine it could certainly be a number of things. Do you ever notice the pain more when you are stressed? Learning so much about the brain/gut connection and celiacs. Thanks, there is comfort in hearing others have experienced similar symptoms.

      This was my main symptom. I still get it from time to time. Also feels like a burning pain on the upper abdomen. I think the wine could definitely cause the pain to be worse. There are do many things I still can't eat.

      Yes and this is true of gluten free ready made, processed and prepackaged foods in general. In particular, hard to digest polysaccharides are commonly used in these products that give many celiacs issues and I personally don't handle some emulsifiers well. IMO, reactions to these ingredients are often mistaken for a gluten reaction.
