Where do you get these articles?  There is some very wrong info in here.

1)  All oats should be avoided if you have Celiac Disease.  :blink:  Certified gluten-free oats are very safe for some with Celiac Disease and I think that has been firmly established in Celiac world.

3) Here we go again with the distilled vinegar issue.  :rolleyes:  It is safe and the only vinegar that isn't is malt vinegar or any vinegar that may have added flavorings after distillation that could contain gluten, of which I have never seen before in 11 1/2 years.  But read the label just in case.

5)  The baking powder issue is just another one where you have to read those labels.  I have to admit, I have never, ever seen baking powder with flour mixed in for smoothness but they may exist.

7) Corn starch. I think it ridiculous that they say you should stay away from it. This is a basic cooking item for Celiacs so again, read the label because if there is wheat added, it has to be labeled. Never, ever have gotten sick from corn starch.

10)  Sausages have gluten in the casings?  On what planet?  :lol:  There are plenty of sausages out there which are gluten free and marked accordingly on the package....the frozen ones like Jones and Applegate Farms.  I have had fresh sausage that did not contain breadcrumbs (which some do) and were perfectly fine and I never got sick.  I am really sensitive so if there were gluten in sausage casings, I would have paid dearly for eating them. You have to ask/investigate where you buy them but they can be found.  I would be more worried about what went into the sausage or them being cc'd by stuffing them before you think there is gluten in all sausages from the casings.

No wonder people are confused.......

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      By trents · Posted

      @KRipple, thank you for the lab results from your husband's celiac disease blood antibody testing. The lab result you share would seem to be the tTG-IGA (Tissue Transglutaminase IGA) and the test result is in excess of 10x normal. This is significant as there is an increasing tendency for physicians to grant a celiac disease diagnosis on the basis of antibody testing alone when the scores on that particular test exceed 10x normal. This trend started in the UK during the COVID pandemic when there was tremendous pressure on the medical system over there and it has spread to the USA. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac disease blood antibody testing. All this to say that some doctors would grant a celiac disease diagnosis on your husband's bloodwork alone and not feel a need to go forward with an endoscopy with biopsy. This is something you and your husband might wish to take up with his physicians. In view of his many health issues it might be wise to avoid any further damage to his small bowel lining by the continuing consumption of gluten and also to allow healing of such to progress. The lining of the small bowel is the place where essentially all of our nutrition is absorbed. This is why celiac disease when it is not addressed with a gluten free diet for many years typically results in additional health problems that are tied to nutritional deficiencies. The millions and millions of tiny finger-like projections that make up the nutrient absorbing surface of the small bowel lining are worn down by the constant inflammation from gluten consumption. In celiac disease, the immune system has been tricked into labeling gluten as an invader. As these finger-like projections are worn down, the efficiency of nutrient absorption becomes more and more compromised. We call this villous atrophy.

      Thank you so much! And sorry for not responding sooner. I've been scouring the hospital records and can find nothing other than the following results (no lab info provided): Component Transglutaminase IgA   Normal Range: 0 - 15.0 U/mL >250.0 U/mL High   We live in Olympia, WA and I will be calling University of Washington Hospital - Roosevelt in Seattle first thing tomorrow. They seem to be the most knowledgeable about complex endocrine issues like APS 2 (and perhaps the dynamics of how APS 2 and Celiacs can affect each other). His diarrhea has not abated even without eating gluten, but that could be a presentation of either Celiac's or Addison's. So complicated. We don't have a date for endoscopy yet. I will let my husband know about resuming gluten.    Again, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with me!

      Hi Phosphone, did you ever figure out what elevated your DGP?  I am in the same boat.

      Scott makes a good point about the prednisone. It has a general suppressing effect on the immune system. Don't misunderstand me. In view of your husband's several autoimmune afflictions, it would seem to be an appropriate medication therapy but it will likely invalidate endoscopy/biopsy test results for celiac disease.
