potato vodka. My sister and I keep a bottle between the two of us just for that. You don't even really get to buzzed because your body is not absorbing anything. Let me know if this works for you. It has been a life saver for us. Chopin and Luskaswa are both potatoe brands. You can get the small 2 oz bottles and they will usually do the trick. It is better to do it as soon as you realize that you have been gultened.

I used pepto to help with the symptoms while I was healing...

I take pepto bismol and dramamine. Both help. HOpe the dramamine is gluten-free though. HMM!

Seems to help me though, either way.

My doctor gave me dicyclomine and that virtually got rid of all the cramping tha nausea. It's an anti-spasmodic. It also helped with the leg cramps and other little annoying celiac symptoms.

Pepto helped me the most but I try not to take them unless I really have to.

Immodium made me so much worse! I find what really helps me is a homeopathic remedy called Sepia (you can buy it in the health food store). When I get a stomach ache, I dissolve 3 - 6 little pills under my tongue (depending on how bad I feel), and it helps within a couple of minutes. Its a real life saver for me. And has no side effects, either. I have the 30C strength (that's all I could get). If you have the 200C ones, take less).

      Just got Celiac blood test results back and they seem crazy high!

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @TexasCeliacNewbie! The test results you posted strongly point to celiac disease. It is likely that your physician will want to perform an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to confirm the results of the celiac antibody bloodwork results you just posted. It is important that you not cut back on gluten consumption until the endoscopy/biopsy is complete, assuming, that is, one is forthcoming.  Can you post the actual reference ranges used by the lab for the tests to determine positive/negative/normal/high/low? Scales used by these labs are different from one place to the other so the raw numbers don't mean much without the scale used by the lab. There aren't industry standards for this. By the way, you probably won't be able to edit the original post so please post the extra info in new post. May we ask about the cancer you mentioned? There are some things that can elevate the antibody test scores, at least mildly, besides celiac disease.

      Hi, I have been having a lot of back pain and gut issues for 8 weeks or so.  I saw the GI on Monday and my results just came in from the lab.  Some of these number are high and off the little chart from the lab.  I am reading this correctly that I most likely have Celiac, right???  It would explain a lot of things for me that otherwise are worrying me that my previous cancer is recurring.  Thank you for all of your expertise in this area! Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 140 (normal) Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA 256 (High) Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG 65 (High) t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 31 (High) t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG 10 (High)

      So, I would assume it means that if the risk of developing celiac disease in the general population is 1%, people with the DQ2 gene have a 10% risk of developing celiac disease. So, have you or your physician concluded that you have celiac disease?

      Here's the test result I was refering to.  I may not be understanding this correctly.

      Thanks for the update @TerryinCO! Would you elaborate what you mean when you say your genetic tests show that you are "10x higher" for developing celiac disease? 10x higher than what? There are two main genes, HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8, that have been identified as providing the potential for developing celiac disease. Since 40% of the population carries one or both of these genes but only 1% of the population actually develops celiac disease, the genetic test cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease, simply to establish the potential for developing it. Gene testing is usually done to rule out celiac disease vs. NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). In other words, if gluten consumption is definitely causing someone problems but they don't have the genetic potential for developing celiac disease then the diagnosis would be NCGS. We also know that having both DQ2 and DQ8 puts one at higher risk for developing celiac disease than having just one or the other. But I'm not sure I've ever seen it quantified as in "10x higher". Not sure what you mean by this.
