Hi,

I perhaps you can help....am just starting research on the DNA test HLA-DQ Alpha 1 & Beta 1 for celiac and non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Do you offer this test? Any thoughts on how reliable it is? If you don't offer it could you please direct me to who does?

We appreciate all you do for the health and welfare of those who suffer with this affliction!

Welcome, Vivian!

Celiac.com does not and cannot sell or dispense test kits, drugs or medical equipment. It is simply an educational/support online community. But perhaps someone in the forum community can answer the other part of your question.

I'm not sure about the specific test you are seeking, but genetic testing for celiac disease markers is very common now, and many companies offer it. Even 23AndMe.com offers a genetic screening for it, but there are likely other specialty companies that offer more specific results than the generic ones.

      Gluten free vitamins

      Diabetes and Hashimoto's as well, huh? You are the epitome of the autoimmune cascade effect. That is, once you get one autoimmune condition you tend to develop others. But I am curious. In the sequence of these several autoimmune diagnoses, where did the celiac diagnosis come? You certainly have a lot of health issues to juggle.

      AND, just diagnosed abt 6 months ago with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. I was just feeling like I was getting that under control with Creon when I started feeling worse again.

      So, you have a couple of strikes against you when it comes to nutrient absorption efficiency.

      Weird Symptoms

      @Vozzyv, Certain nutritional deficiencies can cause tinnitus, ringing in the ears.  Vitamins A and D, Thiamine B1, Riboflavin B2,  Pyridoxine B6, Folate B9,  Cobalamine B12, magnesium, zinc and Vitamin C can cause tinnitus individually if deficient.  The malabsorption of Celiac Disease affects all the nutrients our bodies need.  Many of these nutrients work together to keep us healthy.   Talk to your Nutritionist and doctor about supplementing vitamins and minerals while healing.  Eat a nutritionally dense diet.   Tinnitus has been bothersome to me, but supplementing with the B vitamins, especially Thiamine, Vitamin C, and Vitamins A and D has really helped me.
