Hi Linda,

The symptoms and pain different people experience with celiac disease vary widely.  Some people have no symptoms at all.  Pain symptoms can be in various areas.  I wouldn't  say your pain is not "correct" for celiac disease because of this.

The first thing to do is get some blood tests done for celiac disease.  Don't stop eating gluten until all testing is completed, including a possible endoscopy.  The best thing to do is get a complete celiac panel, as some people don't show up on the standard limited tests.

Welcome to the forum! :)

Linda,

Are you sure you were tested for a gluten intolerance?  Was it a medical doctor?  Did it include these tests (read link):

If the blood tests were positive (any one of them), you should be referred to a Gastroenterologist who can perform a endoscopy to obtain intestinal biopsies.  If positive, you might want to see a dietitian who specializes celiac disease.

      I have no specific recommendations but I would suggest looking for products that are advertised as produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility. That should eliminate one possible route of cross contamination. It doesn't guarantee that none of the ingredients going into the product are totally gluten free but is should eliminate adding more CC to the mix via processing machinery.  One of the issues you may be experiencing is that testing has shown that a significant percentage of "Certified Gluten Free" products can test far in excess of 10ppm. There was an article appearing in this forum back last summer outlining the results of testing that showed this to be true. So, it may be somewhat of a pig in a poke when you buy this stuff, regardless of how it is billed. It may be safe for you if it actually fits within the stated requirements of it's billing.

      I can still have a reaction from “certified gluten free” products I don’t like having to use the eat and see what my body does approach are there really any purely gluten free products or do I just have to make all of my own food?

      Hi I just wanted to update you all and let you know that I finally have my diagnosis. 2 weeks ago I had my third gastroscopy and the biopsy confirmed the damage. Thank you for giving me the information I needed to advocate for myself when I a was a feeling so lost!
