Seronegative Celiac


AutumnSky

Recommended Posts

AutumnSky Rookie

Hello I'm new here. 

I am seronegative celiac. It runs in the family. My father carries two variants of the gene but I only have one. My grandmother had celiac as does My brother. 

My most recent EGD and colonoscopy showed intraepithelial lymphocytosis last December. But since the tests came back negative the doctor was unwilling to call it celiac. Now is still have the lymphocytosis, elevated liver enzymes, and b12 deficiency and completely dairy/lactose intolerant. A new GI has decided that I meet the requirements for seronegative celiac and MARSH lvl 1. 

Anyways, I am trying to go gluten free. It's hard. But I need to stick with this. I'm on day three. I hope I can start feeling well soon.

Thanks for sharing this. We have scattered reports here and there of seronegative celiac disease coupled with negative biopsies. But it is a real thing and your report helps confirm that.

      Thank you for your answer. I read it here: https://www.beyondceliac.org/celiac-disease/non-celiac-gluten-sensitivity/ With the title "What’s the Difference Between Gluten Sensitivity and Celiac Disease?"

      For me I gave up oat products and it finally cleared. I had a whole body reaction for months. Two additional culprits for me: shared grill at a restaurant or a shared toaster.  Hope you have relief soon.

      It can take between 6 months and 2 years for the dermatitis herpetiformis rash to resolve. The symptoms of dermatitis herpetiformis arise from deposits of certain antibodies building up in the skin. These deposits attract immune cells leading to inflammation and blistering. It can take 10 years for the deposits to be reabsorbed although symptoms resolve long before this.

      Welcome to the forum, Linda! Many on this forum can sympathize with you. It can be extremely difficult to get reliable information about gluten when it comes to meds, supplements and oral hygiene products. This is especially true since so much of this stuff is generic and comes from over seas. I will deflect with regard to your question about meds and oral products but take you in another direction. Have you tried a low iodine diet. Iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis and some find that a low iodine diet helps reduce the number of outbreaks. By the way, have you had your celiac antibodies retested recently? If they are elevated that might be a clue that you are getting gluten in your oral hygiene products or meds.
