Surprised

Hi, I recently met a woman who has Celiac and Hashimoto. She looks great. Always very energetic but she told me that she does sometimes experience panic attacks and hair loss. I understand that celiacs sometimes do not have obvious symptoms. However, she and her family do not follow gluten free diet. She has one child, an 8 year-old daughter who also has celiac. The woman told me her own test results for celiac and to be honest I was surprised that her IgG was not much higher than mine and I religiously follow this diet. So, I found it interesting that her IgG was not much higher since she regularly consumes gluten. When I consumed it, my IgG was so high. I guess some of us are much more sensitive than she is.

If she was diagnosed with celiac and does not follow a gluten-free diet, she is a fool. If her daughter was diagnosed as a celiac and she doesn't see to it that she follows a gluten-free diet, it is child abuse.

Her antibodies may have been low when she was first tested, but they will go up if she continues to be reckless with her health. And as for the daughter, someone should report her. :angry:

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.

      This might be helpful to you at this point:

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.

      But isn't it easier to just take a D3 supplement? Is the D light somehow a superior source? Links?
