Scott Adams' Story of His Diagnosis of Celiac Disease
Celiac disease can be tricky to diagnose, especially if you've already started eliminating gluten from your diet, as this can lead to false negative blood test results. The gold standard for diagnosing celiac is typically a combination of blood tests and an endoscopy with biopsy, but if your gastroenterologist isn't recommending further testing, it might...- celiac

I'm confused. I think I may have had undiagnosed celiac for the past at least 10 years if not more. I was positive for lactose intolerance about 20 years ago... I never fully stopped eating dairy or gluten 😕 I recently came down with strange symptoms of dizzyness, numbness in the head, internal shaking and rapid organ pulsations feeling like I might fa...- celiac

Oh, yes, missed that factoid from your first post that your daughters are living in a gluten-free home. You may have to face this issue further down the line when they get older and are eating more often outside your home and making their own eating decisions. But for now, if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it.- anti-tissue transglutaminase

Reese's Plant Based PeanutButter Cups are made with non-Gluten Free Oats and only states on the package Dairy Free. Is it safe for Celiacs or those with Gluten Intolerance issues to consume? I think Mars is taking a small step in the right direction concerning food allergies and wish they were Gluten Free. -

These items are on sale for $3.99 at Target: Choose from Choclate Chip, Grahams or Vanilla Wafers. I purchased all 3 plus an extra Choclate Chip. All are produced in a dedicate Gluten & Peanut Free Facility and other choices are available on amazon.com. -

I had these for years, covered in scars from them. Not had any since I started taking reishi and cordyceps tincture, they’re immune modulators, I think that’s how they work. Most of my other symptoms have also disappeared, I take a treble dose if I get glutened and it’s almost an instant fix, 3 days of mild symptoms instead of 3 weeks of horrible. Might be worth a try, don’t be put off by the caterpillars, I think they’ve found a different way of growing them now. -

Welcome to the forum, @LookingForAnswers101, I had similar experiences with boil outbreaks in the same areas. Mine was caused by Candida Albicans and eating a diet too high in sugar and simple carbohydrates. Candida is a yeast infection, so the antibacterial wash is not going to help. I had to change my diet to a Paleo diet before it went away. If I consume high levels of sugar or other simple carbohydrates (rice, corn, dairy, etc.), boils would occur at pressure points like the groin and back of the legs. Your doctor might be able to prescribe an antifungal medication, but some of those antifungal medications destroy thiamine. Thiamine is needed to keep fungal and bacterial infections in check. I took Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine, but TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) will work, too. Thiamine, and the other B vitamins, especially Niacin and Biotin, along with Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D will help keep skin healthy. Be sure to address these nutritional deficiencies that occur with Celiac! Ask your doctor to rule out autoimmune hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and Human Papilloma virus, too. Hang in there! You'll get over this rocky patch of the journey! Best wishes! P. S. Get checked for Type Two Diabetes as well. Candida, type two diabetes and a high carbohydrate diet often go together. A Paleo diet really helps me with my Type Two Diabetes and Candida overgrowth. -

As I mentioned, gluten intolerance encompasses more than just those with celiac disease, and in the past was used more like the term "gluten sensitivity" is used today.
