Could someone please help interpret my husbands bloodwork the doctor says it suggests celiac. And the doc thinks he does have celiac deliseas. He also has the symptoms! I believe he has celiac, we have just been told wrong in the past that we are kind uneasy when it comes to doctors... He's been gluten  free since having the test done. It's been 2 weeks and he's feeling some better! Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.  Well, you really need to get a hold of the test results.  I can not tell which celiac test was given (TTG or DGP) and the lab ranges are not clear.  What I can tell you that if he has a positive on any of the celiac tests, he should be referred to a Gastroenterologist and he should be on a gluten diet.  All celiac testing (blood and intestinal biopsies) require a patient to be on a daily diet of gluten.  In as little as two weeks, testing results can be negative if the patient is gluten free.  

Symptoms for celiac disease tend to overlap with other autoimmune issues, so testing is required for a diagnosis.  

I encourage you to learn more about celiac disease testing here:

      By Sergiu2020 · Posted

      Thanks a lot! I will search that too. I also talked to another doctor and she assured me there is no gluten in this type of antibiotics. Anyway i started the administration of Augmentin on my girl this evening. I hope there will be no problems.

      Brasswell marmalade and jellies are gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Good afternoon, I don’t know if anyone here has ever tried Braswell’s products like their marmalades or jellies? Are they gluten-free? On the ingredients says “cane sugar, cherries (cherries, cane sugar), strawberries, corn syrup, pectin and citric acid. That ingredient list is from their berry preserve bottle. Most of them say the same for ingredients, but I’m not sure if it is okay to consume.

      NEED TO READ ALL LABELS (FRONT & BACK)

      By Peggy M · Posted

      I have seen this problem many times. I always get in touch with the company. Most times they tell me if I'm just gluten free it is ok, but do not eat it if you are celiac. Calling the company is the best way when you are not sure. Yesterday I had a different example of products being marked gluten-free.  I love chocolate and have a piece each day. The chocolate bar I like is Chocolove. When I bought one this week it was not marked gluten-free. I called the company to find out why and if it was still gluten-free.  Turns out the manufacturer decided there was too much on the wrapper and took off the gluten-free label. It is made in a dedicated gluten-free facility.
