I've been following a gluten free diet for a few weeks now as I suspect that I've got celiac disease and have been feeling better apart from when I eat gluten free bread it has been setting me off and I feel like crap. It hasn't been cross contaminated so I'm confused HELP!

Maybe check for dairy in the ingredients of the bread? You may be allergic to both, gluten and dairy. I have several friends/family that are allergic to both. :)

Some celiac end up with issues with Xantham Gum intolerance or sensitivity...the way it is made can make it quite the offender.
High and large amounts of starches and sugars used in most gluten free breads can cause gas, bloating. Celiacs especially those recently diagnosed are prone to SIBO and Candida. If your have these the excess loads of starches and sugars in gluten free processed foods will give you a nightmare of bloat, gas, and other symptoms that can be almost as bad a gluten exposure.

FEW top suggestion to new celiac, whole foods only diet without dairy or oats, you know the dairy issues with damaged villi not producing the enzymes to break ti down but 10% of celiacs react to oats as well even gluten free ones.

Breads....Gluten free we suggest you give them up for months til you forget what they even taste like.

There are some lower carb options for gluten-free breads and even xantham gum free ones like Julian Bakery (DO NOT ORDER AMAZON but straight from their bakery) they are acquired and a bit drier. They toast great, the seed melody is a nice treat and I have not even tried their new sandwich one since my bakery started our own. Mikeys' Makes a heavy toasted bread you can find at walmart.

      @Scott Adams Recently got blood work back and TTG antibodies went from 168.8 to 16.7 and deaminated gliadin was 22 (was not measured the first time). Is this a good start for an 11 month time frame? Just having a hard time with why my symptoms seemed to be flaring up again when my blood work has improved.

      I’ve been through something similar recently, and I know how frustrating it can be when nothing seems to work. Based on what you’ve described, it might be worth considering dermatitis herpetiformis, especially with the family history of celiac disease. Testing could give you some answers, and while online kits aren’t as reliable as a GP, they’re a good start if appointments are hard to get. I also found relief through medical cannabis for my eczema, at Releaf, a clinic in the UK that offers eczema medical cannabis treatment. They start with a low dose, adjust weekly, and track progress through online consultations.

      Welcome to the forum, @Jaylan! Almost all of the symptoms and medical conditions you describe have been found to be associated with celiac disease. But they can also be caused by other things as well. There certainly is enough circumstantial evidence in your list of medical problems to warrant being tested for celiac disease. Ask your physician to order a celiac panel consisting of, at the very minimum, these two blood antibody tests: total IGA and tTG-IGA. Please do not attempt to limit your gluten intake before the blood draw is taken or you will invalidate the testing. Incidentally, celiac disease is often misdiagnosed as IBS.

      Hi there!  I’ve recently been tested for celiac disease, along with other autoimmune diseases. My symptoms started back in 2018 with joint pain in my knees. Since then, it has progressively worsened. I now have joint pain in both knees, elbows, and sometimes my shoulders. The pain is almost unbearable. I feel so stiff in the mornings, and this stiffness can last the whole day. I also experience swelling and warmth around those areas.   Other symptoms include IBS (diagnosed at age 16), restless legs, chest pain, tiredness, miscarriages, bloating, and sharp pain on the right side of my stomach. In the past, I’ve also had problems with a vitamin D deficiency, and my serum folate levels recently came back very low.   My question is: How likely is it that I have celiac disease?
