Great experience on Princess Star Cruise

We had a fantastic experience on Princess Star! They were meticulous with my daughter. They pre-ordered food every day for the 6 of us who are gluten-free and for her with celiac all precautions for cross contamination. They made amazing gluten-free bread every day prepared in seperate toaster. My nephews are also dairy free and they made they a special dessert every night gluten-free and dairy free. The buffet was not a problem for the gluten sensitive they showed us all the gluten-free items to pick from but my daughter with celiac did not tolerate so we stuck to the dining room. I was so worried about being on the ship for a week if she did not do well and it was wonderful and a real vacation not to have to do it all myself for a week!!

Sounds great, I know someone else commented on having a great experience with Princess Cruises and Disney Cruise lines. Nice to hear a success story with one of these trips. -_- I am debating going on one of these but would have to do a room share with someone afford it lol. Found some nice deals for 10 day cruises at under $200 a person for 3-4 people to the Caribbean if only I had some celiac friends to go with who could put up with my Autism and not want to poison me after day 3.

      Sometimes I have a bit of stomach, discomfort, anxiety, tiredness, and soreness but nothing that stops by normal day to day activities. I work a ton and am very active so likely it is related to that and not my celiac but unsure with everyone's symptoms and stories I see online.  I will definitely start doing this every year from now on. Could one crumb of gluten from a month before that blood test caused that spike ? I am trying to really trace back and think

      The do what? Give you a gluten-like reaction you mean?

      Different labs use different reference ranges for celiac-related tests. They concoct the tests a little differently in each place so the ranges are custom. So, I would trust the lab that analyzed the test and not google.' All celiac diagnostic tests are less than 100% specific. That is to say, there are other medical conditions, some medications, some other health issues and even some non-gluten foods that can cause them to be elevated, at least mildly. And your TTG-IGA score is barely elevated. If you were to get retested next week it might be back in normal range. It is normal to see some fluctuation in most labs and in most physical and biological parameters. Can you be more specific about "certain things" that you feel. How do you feel different? Are there any specific symptoms that might be tied to a celiac regression? It would be a good idea to check all pantry items to see if there have been any ingredient changes over time that might have introduced gluten into your diet and to check meds, supplements and oral hygiene products as well. But other than that, I would not stress out about it as long as you aren't experiencing any particular health issues that you can tie to celiac regression. I certainly would recommend that you get your antibody levels checked more often than every 10 years so that you have concrete data to work with. I would go for every year if your physician would agree to it. It could be included as part of your annual wellness check.  Yes, your posts are all showing in the thread.

      These were certified gluten free. I have a list of about 12 or so foods that do this.

      Thank you for the response and info! You are right, I do not know if they are fluctuating, what I should have said was is this sort of test normal and common for celiacs who are even on a gluten-free diet?  I was very surprised to see these results as I am very careful and only eat out at dedicated gluten-free places or make food at home with gluten-free products.  For IGA my lab said 325 was the upper end of the reference range but Google had others saying 400-420.   I am in my mid twenties now so the original diagnosis was some time ago. I wonder if certain things I feel are related to celiac or just normal stress in life now with these elevated numbers
