Hi Im new and wanted to throw this out there to see what you all think. a girl was tested and found deficient in the enzyme that processes meat. She was unable to eat it without becoming symptomatic. as a teen she was in a car accident that required surgeries and hospitalization. Post she can eat meat no problem 2 years and counting Any thoughts? maybe a blood transfusion with O type blood. Any similar stories

      BadHobit, did you know that 40% of the general population has one or more of the genes that have been associated with the development of celiac disease? But only about 1% of the population actually develops celiac disease. So, the gene test can legitimately be used to rule out celiac disease but not to confirm it.

      An entirely different infection caused the sore throat. My doctor said, "When you suddenly switch from a gluten-free diet to gluten, your immune system weakens." I got better with medication. Once I recovered, I experimented with wheat-free but gluten-contaminated foods such as oats. Within a week, watery blisters appeared on my skin again. So I gave up gluten for good. And hello, I gained weight, and I'm not skinny anymore (in fact, I was a person who lost weight by eating pizza and hamburgers!). My skin, stomach, and intestines are happy. I just think they can find out if I have celiac disease—and I'm ninety percent sure about the gluten part—with a diagnostic gene test. However, I prefer not to visit the hospital due to my excellent health. I'll keep you posted when I have that gene test done and receive the results. Thanks a bunch for your help!

      Histamine itself does not have a taste. The salty taste associated with tears or mucus comes from their electrolyte content, not from histamine. While histamine can be part of various immune responses, its connection to gluten reactions is not direct, and it does not taste salty. The salty taste of tears and mucus is due to their sodium chloride content, not histamine.

      @Matt13, Your symptoms sound similar to the ones I had.  I had developed nutritional deficiencies, in particular, thiamine deficiency.  Gastrointestinal BeriBeri has all those symptoms and the fatigue was horrible.   Quick field test from WHO:  can you rise unaided from a squat?   If you have a serious thiamine deficiency, you cannot stand back up after squatting.  Really cool test.  Read for yourself the article below, compare the symptoms, discuss with your doctors.  Doctors can administer high dose thiamine via IV and you will improve very quickly.  I had improvement within an hour.  No harm in trying, process of elimination and all that. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Thiamine deficiency disorders: a clinical perspective https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/ Are you aware regular Ensure Plus contains dairy?  Are you aware Plant Protein Ensure Plus contains oats?  Just checking.   Have you tried the AutoImmune Protocol diet?  Highly recommend.   Check out my blog to read excerpts of my journey and my clueless doctors. Keep us posted on your progress!

      g/L, a weight per volume unit, would be a very unusual unit for a celiac specific (EMA) test.   1.24 g/L would be in the normal range if this was a TOTAL IgA test. Best to ask the doctor.
