Xanthan Gum Skin Reaction

Ok, I have figured out one of the weird symptoms I had on another thread. I had burning hands with redness. I opened a bag of xanthan gum today and spilled it on the counter and got the stuff all over my hands wiping it up. I washed up, but my hands began the burning/redness again. I had inadvertantly rubbed my face and eye somehow and they were burning too!! I remember that I had a little spill before with the stuff and now I know what the problem was. (Hey, I know it's expensive, but the bags was so cheap it ripped weird and spilled easily! Plus, yes I am a little klutzy) Anyway, is anyone else out there allergic or sensitive to xanthan gum? I was going to give up all grains anyway, oh well.. <_<

      Hello Dc91 and welcome to the forum! Could you first just add the lab ranges for us for your TTG IgA Antibodies as they vary?   Cristiana

      Celiac or not?

      Sorry I should have said these bloods were taken Friday morning, a week after the first initial bloods. So I hadn’t starved myself of gluten before these bloods were taken.

      Celiac or not?

      By Dc91 · Posted

      Hi all, I’m new here and completely new to celiac.  last week I went to my doctors for acid reflux issues, she also took bloods and sent them off. Last Thursday I got my TTG IgA Antibodies test come back as >100u/ML which the doctor has referred me to the celiac team at my local hospital. I have stopped eating gluten since Friday morning. (I’m guessing this will take weeks or months to be seen)   earlier this evening I got a new result through for Endomysial IgA antibody = Weak positive.    I’m guessing this gives me the difinitive answer I’ve been looking for? A positive is a positive. any help would be greatly appreciated.
