Has anyone noticed when they were a kid that they had celiac disease or was it older in life? like did it just come out of know where like I was diagnosed via blood test. but I never noticed I was always fatigued but I thought that's what life was for me until swap of gluten free diet and then when near foreign substances my life was just upside down and horrible like what was the symptoms you experienced via nose, mouth and esophagus and gut?

I didn't get diagnosed until I was in my mid-20's, but had severe symptoms for a few years leading up to that point. After I got diagnosed and went gluten-free, some long-term  health issues seemed to also go away, and I had those issues long before my severe symptoms kicked in. For example chronic nasal congestion, strange rashes, blepharitis, and panic attacks. It took me years to realize that the symptoms I had when I was much younger were also related to either undiagnosed celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. I never identified the symptoms as being related, and never thought that going gluten-free would cause them to clear up, but that's what happened.

ok true really . sorry to hear about that ! i was in my late 20s when i had black outs for no reason and just full on panic attacks would always black out and be like what the heck but like just body in shock but now I take fexofenadine and 2 puffs inhaler because it helps the panic attack and open airways and fexo relives symptoms its so good knowing this can save my life ? what symptoms did you notice growing up as like we grow up out growing wheat but then the body shows later on hey .

So you still have panic attacks after going gluten-free? How long ago were you diagnosed?

      My kid has been eating gluten free (taking care of cc too) but he has constant stomach pain since diagnosis (4 months) Was wondering to look into other food allergies?

      It depends on what kind of allergy testing you want done and whether or not your insurance will allow you to make direct appointments with specialists. Serum allergy tests can be ordered by a PCP using a blood draw. Epidermal "prick panel" allergy testing would need to be done by an allergist. There is also something called ALCAT food sensitivity testing. We use the term "allergy" rather loosely and differently than it is used in medical settings.  All food allergy/sensitivity testing is problematic and the results often do not agree with each other or with actual symptoms. It's worth doing some research as to reliability before you dive into it.

      How do you do allergy tests? The primary doctor sends you to an allergist?

      1/1/2 slices of bread is likely not enough. Current guidelines for the gluten challenge are recommending 10g of gluten daily which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. Physicians in practice are often working from outdated info.

      Please list the ingredients of the granola. It may have nothing to do with gluten but an allergy or sensitivity to some ingredient.
