Hi Guys, 

I got diagnosed with celiac 3 months back when I join this forum and took advise from all of you on how to tackle it.. Before I start next para, I want to thank everyone whose blog and comments rwally helped me to takle this condition 

In June 2017 I was diagnosed with endoscopy and bllod report that I have celiac.. I didnt have any major symptoms apart from stomach upset for couple of days.. My IgA TTG level was as high as 80 at that time. 

The moment  I was  aware of this conditiin I went on complete gluten free diet. I stop eating out for next 2 monts and onky had food prepared at home.. Being in Indian I was not to dependednt atbhome on gluten products since mostvof induan food dont have gluten in it. But yet i took extreme precaution and in case any doubt i have avoided all the foids which may even contain trace of gluten by cross contamination. 

 

After 3 months, last week i did my blood report and to my surprise it came diwn to 1.5 from 80. It was. drastic change sobthis week I went for endoscopy and another blkod report and both reports come out be good.. No villous atripy and IgA Ttg at 1.25. I was very happy to see that but I know I have to take all this precautiin life long wgich is bit tough.. In last 3 months I didnt get any off day or any symptoms which bother me or my daily life.. I am feeling as good as before duagnosis.. The only thing change is that I keed tobplan my food a daybin advance. 

 

Thanks all for your support.. Wilk keep you updating on my future progress.

      Thanks for the reply Trent.  You asked how much gluten I’m consuming daily.  I haven’t been tracking that.  I just know that some of the food I’ve been eating does have gluten like sandwiches and things like that.  I’ve also had a few cookies we baked that had flour.    My GI doctor did get back with me and they are moving the endoscopy up to tomorrow.  I too hope I have consumed enough gluten for the test to be accurate.    The odd thing about this is about 12-14 years ago I had similar symptoms.  The ended up diagnosing as IBS.  They never did celiac testing.  The episodes went away and just reared their ugly head again this year. I’m not sure why they just stopped, but was thankful.   Here are the results for the blood test. CELIAC DISEASE COMPREHENSIVE PANEL INTERPRETATION No serological evidence of celiac disease. tTG IgA may normalize in individuals with celiac disease who maintain a gluten-free diet. Consider HLA DQ2 and DQ8 testing to rule out celiac disease. Celiac disease is extremely rare in the absence of DQ2 or DQ8. Show Less TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB, IGA U/mL <1.0 IMMUNOGLOBULIN A 230

      Foods tasting salty can be an indicator of diabetes, kidney failure, Sjogren's syndrome, thyroid problems, smoking, dehydration and zinc deficiency.

      Our insight into the immune responses involved in celiac disease has steadily increased and there have been many attempts to develop drug therapies to either break down gluten before it triggers immune system responses or to, in some way, trick the immune system into no longer identifying gluten as a threat. So far, all these attempts have been disappointments that did make it out of the trial phases that all new drug therapies are put through.

      Good idea! We don’t have a range hood/exhaust fan so I didn’t think of that.

      This article fits that category:  and this is more broad and not limited to the past year:
