My boy friend eats gluten food but rare eats it at home once in awhile some one brings him something I don't know why but our neighbors like to bring him food .like one lady said I'm losing my mind when I get gluten I get super angry , and emotional my hands hurt really bad is there something I'm missing

Are you kissing him after he eats gluten? You can be glutened that way.

The Alprazolam by Sandoz is for sure gluten free. Not all are. I was glutened by one from a different maker and because I don't take it very often it took me a long time to figure it out. I let the Pharmacy know and they got the Sandoz back.

I get the same emotional effect from gluten as you and it can be hard for those around us to deal with when it happens. I also get joint and muscle pain. A hot shower seems to help and for my hands I have a wax bath. My PT told me to do the hot wax for a few minutes and then ice and that seems to help a bit. Black Cherry juice seems to help a lot with my hand pain. It takes a couple days of drinking 8 oz a day to notice a difference but it seems to help a lot with the inflammation. 

I hope you figure out what is getting you soon.

I would get the angry "Mr. Hyde" first few years after a exposure, I would also the crazy emotions, and looping thoughts that would go like a broken record driving me mad. I could not think of stuff I would try, simple task became much harder, motor control issues. The anger and looping have been gone for years, but the motor control issues come back with even tiny exposures and can last months and slowly wane. 
It takes time to adapt and get the diet, and lifestyle down, going to a whole food diet, learning what foods/meds are safe, and building a new routine takes time.

-_- I keep safe drinks/liquors in my house for guest and family to have.  Austin East Ciders , Redbridge, Gluten Berg, BuckWit, Ghost Fish, and Duck foot for beers, stuff like Admiral Nelson plain and vanilla rum, barefoot wines, Ciroc vodka and generally most tequila is gluten and wheat free. I provide all meals, desserts, snacks, etc.

I do take Valium (diazapam) thought that it was safe but now I'm not so sure I get it from Walgreens when I googled it it said it was safe but it also said the zanax was safe and it is not so does any one know about Valium (diazepam) ? I'm super stressed just need help to sleep not sure if it does or not I don't use it alot and my boyfriend has been eating out alot then coming home not sure if he wash his hands before touching things I touch sometimes he will drink out of my soda so that is a possible cause but I think I fixed that situation just need to know about the diazepam

Thank you again for taking you time to read this and reply you are the only ones really helpful the Dr is useless

      Negative biopsy and seeking doctor recs in Los Angeles

      By trents · Posted

      If you have been eating the gluten equivalent of 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for say, 4 weeks, I think a repeat blood test would be valid.

      it did include Total Immunoglobin A which was 135, and said to be in normal range. when i did the blood test in January I would say I was on a "light' gluten diet, but def not gluten free.  I didn't have any clue about the celiac thing then.  Since then I have been eating a tonne of gluten for the purpose of the endoscopy....so I'm debating just getting my blood test redone right away to see if it has changed so I'm not waiting another month...

      Welcome to the forum, @englishbunny! Did your celiac panel include a test for "Total IGA"? That is a test for IGA deficiency. If you are IGA deficient, other IGA test resultls will likely be falsely low. Were you by any chance already practicing a reduced gluten free diet when the blood draw was done?

      I'm upset & confused and really need help finding a new gastro who specializes in celiac in California.  Also will welcome any insights on my results. I tested with an isolated positive for deamidated IGA a few months ago (it was 124.3, all other values on celiac panel <1.0), I also have low ferritin and Hashimotos. Mild gastro symptoms which don't seem to get significantly worse with gluten but I can't really tell... my main issues being extreme fatigue and joint pain. The celiac panel was done by my endocrinologist to try and get to the bottom of my fatigue and I was shocked to have a positive result. Just got negative biposy result from endoscopy. Doctor only took two biopsies from small intestine (from an area that appeared red), and both are normal. Problem is his Physician's Assistant can't give me an answer whether I have celiac or not, or what possible reason I might have for having positive antibodies if I don't have it. She wants me to retest bloods in a month and says in the meantime to either "eat gluten or not, it's up to you, but your bloodwork won't be accurate if you don't" I asked if it could be I have early stage celiac so the damage is patchy and missed by only having two samples taken, and she said doctor would've seen damaged areas when performing endoscopy (?) and that it's a good sign if my whole intestine isn't damaged all over, so even if there is spotty damage I am fine.  This doesn't exactly seem satisfactory, and seems to be contrary to so much of the reading and research I have done. I haven't seen the doctor except at my endoscopy, and he was pretty arrogant and didn't take much time to talk. I can't see him or even talk to him for another month. I'm really confused about what I should do. I don't want to just "wait and see" if I have celiac and do real damage in the meantime. Because I know celiac is more that just 'not eating bread' and if I am going to make such a huge lifestyle adjustment I need an actual diagnosis. So in summary I want to find another doctor in CA, preferably Los Angeles but I don't care at this stage if they can do telehealth! I just need some real answers from someone who doesn't talk in riddles. So recommendations would be highly welcomed. I have Blue Shield CA insurance, loads of gastros in LA don’t take insurance at all 😣

      Oats gluten free?

      By trents · Posted

      Okay, Lori, we can agree on the term "gluten-like". My concern here is that you and other celiacs who do experience celiac reactions to other grains besides wheat, barley and rye are trying to make this normative for the whole celiac community when it isn't. And using the term "gluten" to refer to these other grain proteins is going to be confusing to new celiacs trying to figure out what grains they actually do need to avoid and which they don't. Your experience is not normative so please don't proselytize as if it were.
