Some experts believe that NCGS can be a precursor to celiac disease.

NCGS would not cause a DH rash. But, it has not been confirmed that you have DH. Make sure you find a dermatologist that knows the correct way to biopsy DH. Not all do.

Yes, I am awaiting to have them call me to schedule an appointment. Okay so if it is positive it’s celiac disease and if not then possibly NCGS.

That's the long and short of it, yes.

Well hopefully biopsy comes back positive and saves me the trouble of arguing with this doctor. And hopefully they can give me some answers soon. I really appreciate all y’all’s help. Only thing I’m not sure of is when to stop eating gluten since I’m still doing tests I guess. Maybe I talk to them about it next week.

Keep eating regular amounts of gluten daily (2 slices of wheat bread or the gluten equivalent according to the Mayo Clinic) up to the day of testing until all tests are complete.

      Bloodwork Help for my Teen

      By Sarah Marie · Posted

      Is it worth it to remove gluten before they potentially do an endoscopy & biopsy? I thought I read it’s best to be eating gluten for 3 months prior to it. So hoping they have a cancellation and call us in sooner.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Aleda D · Posted

      Thank you for the warning. I get blood tests twice a year to check where I stand with the vitamins I regularly take, so I appreciate the extra reminder. I know some vitamins don’t build up but now I will watch the B6 for sure.

      High dosage of B12 gave me life.

      By trents · Posted

      I think you would do well to take a high potency B-complex such that you get more balanced dosage across the spectrum of B vitamins. They work in concert.

      Around 5 years ago I visited Tokyo, and luckily had my sister in law with me who is from there, otherwise it would have been more difficult. The bottom line is that there are tons of naturally gluten-free food options there, but you need to be able to communicate your needs to restaurant staff. Here is a gluten-free restaurant card for American visitors in Tokyo. It includes a request for a gluten-free meal and mentions common gluten-containing ingredients to avoid, like soy sauce and miso. English: Thank you. Japanese:   You can also download the Google Translate app, and besides being able to help you speak with people there about this, it has a camera app that translates Japanese text to English in your camera, so you can use it when shopping in a supermarket.
