Sorry I probably submitted topic to the wrong place ... I don't have soap right now in my house so would a shampoo wash off the gluten from my hands ? (By the way the shampoo i use is organic so it doesn't foam up a lot  since its SLS free, as i know it hasnt got anything to do with its cleaning quality )

Sure. If it isn't sticky gluten you could also just rinse your hands. I sometimes use my dish soap to wash my hands also.

Expensive but yeah should work, I use Hugo Naturals hand soap myself as it does not dry out my hand like other soaps, I also keep a bar of Grandpas Soap Pine Tar soap in my travel bag. I use EO Shampoo and conditioner myself. Body wash I fell in love with this one from the seaweed company that has a lovely orange scent. I also use Acure Facial Scrubs and wipes for cleaning my face. Shop around between Thrive Market, LuckyVitamin, and Amazon for best pricing and watch for sales.

      Stagnating recovery

      Welcome to the forum, @Eric.C! Are you still consuming dairy and oats? It is very common for those with celiac disease to have or to develop additional food intolerances. It could be to almost anything but dairy and oats (even gluten free oats) are the most common offenders because their proteins are similar to gluten. Also, if you are relying...

      Reaction to gluten or gastro bug?

      Hi @Beck1430 You are very welcome. I am looking at your spelling of coeliac disease and see you spell it the English way. If you are British, like me, perhaps you could update us if you are successful in getting genetic testing. It seems more commonplace in the US. I have been a diagnosed coeliac since 2013 I have not yet met anyone with coeliac...

      Conflicting results

      Welcome to the forum, @Jy11! The way you have posted his blood antibody test results is very confusing. TTg and IgA are not two different tests. These abbreviations should be combined into one expression: TTg-IgA. You seem to have listed the same test twice in 1. and 2. but with different results. Is the way you have posted the results exactly...

      Stagnating recovery

      Hi I got my diagnosis about 3 months ago and has been gluten-free since that. In the beginning I started to feel better right after just a few weeks with things like joint pain disappearing, more energy and improved bowel movements. However, it seems like my recovery has sort of stagnated and my stomach has begun feeling worse as of lately. I find it...

      Welcome to the forum, @Jy11! The way you have posted his blood antibody test results is very confusing. TTg and IgA are not two different tests. These abbreviations should be combined into one expression: TTg-IgA. You seem to have listed the same test twice in 1. and 2. but with different results. Is the way you have posted the results exactly as they appear on the printout you were given? I cannot make heads or tales of the data you supply the way you have posted it. But let me say this. At the very minimum, there are two blood tests that should be run when checking for celiac disease: 1. total IGA and 2. tTG-IGA. The total IGA test looks for IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, then individual IGA tests scores will be artificially low and can result in false negatives. The most popular individual IGA celiac disease test ordered by physicians is the tTG-IGA. The EMA test is an older test that is not often ordered anymore and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA. The EMA test is expensive to conduct. However, if the EMA is positive, it is a highly accurate test and strongly suggests that the person does have celiac disease.  To summarize: 1. a physician should always check for IGA deficiency. 2. tTG-IGA test results are expressed in terms of being "normal" or "high" but not "deficient". 3. EMA test results are expressed in terms of being "negative" or "positive".  Here is an overview of celiac disease antibody testing:

However, it seems like my recovery has sort of stagnated and my stomach has begun feeling worse as of lately. I find it very strange because I haven't really changed much from when I first got my diagnosis and I'm very careful with what I eat and CC. Is it normal for symtoms to come back or what experiences do you have? And how long did it take you from going gluten-free to having normal bowel movements regularly?

      My 7yo has been complaining of tummy aches for some months. Bloods show very low iron and vitamin D. We have had multiple bloods as follows… 1. TTg 0.3 (normal) IgA deficient  2. TTg 6.6 (cut off is 7) IgA 0.54 (cut off is 0.5 so only just over not being deficient) 3. TTg 3 (cut off 7) EMA Positive We are awaiting biopsy but why are the blood results so conflicting? Is it likely he is coeliac? We have strong family history with dad having coeliac plus other relative. Can positive EMA be caused by anything other that coeliac disease? It has been bought up the EMA could be from other inflammation but I can’t find any studies that say this?    thank you.
