What Happens When You've Had Gluten?

What syms do you go thru when you've had gluten? Does anyone get so bloated that they litterally start throwing up air? This happens to me and it is horrible. I'm now on day 3 and might be going to get an IV for fluids. I haven't eaten/drank anything in almost 72 hrs. I started throwing up blood last night. Please tell me that there are others out there who this happens to? I'm new to this and am eating rice, waffles, eggbeaters and ck. all gluten-free. I had somethings last weekend that I thought would help, with the C that I have most days, (White beans). Big mistake. I blew up like I was 6 mos. prego again. It was downhill all weekend and week after that. My tests results were inconclusive and then I found out that you actually have had to ingest the gluten for the test to register it. I was throwing up in the Dr.s office when he took the test and hadn't been able to eat for 2 days prior. I know that I have to take it slow but, I 've been msdx. so many times in the past yr. I just want to get on with my life! Please let me know.

thanks, Jenny

      Welcome to the forum, @Alibee! The Tissue Transglutaminase Ab IgA (aka, tTG-IGA) is a blood antibody test designed to detect the antibodies produced by celiac disease. It is the most popular single test ordered by physicians for this purpose but there are several others that could have been ordered. This test was negative in your case. The Immunoglobin...

      Gluten Free Soy Flour - Where to buy?

      Hello! I like to use soy flour for baking and recently discovered that Bob's Red Mill has discontinued its soy flour product. I've been able to find it at a few local international grocery stores but I have some concerns about cross contamination.

      Test result confusion high Immunoglobin A

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Alibee! The Tissue Transglutaminase Ab IgA (aka, tTG-IGA) is a blood antibody test designed to detect the antibodies produced  by celiac disease. It is the most popular single test ordered by physicians for this purpose but there are several others that could have been ordered. This test was negative in your case. The Immunoglobin A (aka, "total IGA") is not a test for celiac disease per se but is used to check for IGA deficiency. If the person being tested for celiac disease is IGA deficient, this may produce false negatives in the tTG-IGA test. You are not IGA deficient so this is not an issue in your case. Some people who actually have celiac disease are seronegative, meaning the usual antibodies associated with celiac disease inflammation of the small bowel lining are not being produced by the immune system.  The rash on your hands you speak of, can you describe the appearance of the rash? Does it have little pustules in the center of the pimples? There is a skin manifestation of celiac disease known as dermatitis herpetiformis (Dermatitis Herpetiformis) and it has a characteristic appearance with pustules in the center of the bumps. It sounds like you may be aware of dermatitis herpetiformis. Do you have other symptoms that correlate with celiac disease? What motivated you or what led to you being tested for celiac disease?

My doctor only tested me for TTG-AB-IGA and nothing else. My results were <0.5 out of <12u/mL. Im now believing that I wasnt eating enough gluten to have a response, no gluten challenge or anything. Does anyone know what tests I should ask my doctor to do? I want to be armed with information before I go in there again.

But it does not mention processing wheat.

      Hello!  I like to use soy flour for baking and recently discovered that Bob's Red Mill has discontinued its soy flour product. I've been able to find it at a few local international grocery stores but I have some concerns about cross contamination. Wondering if anyone knows a company / brand that specifically calls out their soy flour is gluten free? Or at least cleans the line before producing it? Thank you for any suggestions in advance!
