Today Could Be The Day

I am so nervous, it has been 2 weeks since i did the entrolab testing. I keep checking my mail to see if i have the results. I kinda want to see what they say, but im afraid about the casein test, i dont know if i can give up cheese lol. Giving up gluten has not been that hard but to give up cheese, might be the hardest thing i have ever done.

When you all got ur results about what time of the day was it.

With my luck i wont get them back til closer to the 3 week mark lol

I found out mid-afternoon, a little over two weeks later.

I got mine in a little over 2 weeks, late afternoon/early evening.

Same for me, a little over 2 weeks, but don't remember time of day. I agree, giving up dairy (especially cheese) was harder for me than gluten, but it can be done.

Early afternoon, Pacific time.

You don't say what tests you had done, but I'm guessing you will be positve for antibodies, especially if you are having symptoms. If you had the gene tests done, great...it will either exclude Celiac or

not. Most everyone will have at least one Gluten Sensitive gene marker....

In my case Enterolab "diagnosed" gluten sensitivity...the gene test excluded Celiac and blood tests from my doc also excluded Celiac.

IMO the best test is the gluten-free diet. Although for me it's nice to know I don't have the Celiac gene, it doesn't buy me a whole lot. I still get sick when I eat it and no amount of testing is going to change that. j

I did the complete test. I will be surprised if i dont have the celiac gene. But either way i will not go back to gluten. I am feeling pretty good for the most part.

Since i am the same time zone as texas, i guess mine can be here at any time of the day.

I got them in the afternoon, central time. It came in an email which was a good thing. I didn't realize it was my result so I happily opened it up to find out I was NOT casein intolerant. If it had come in the mail I probably would have left it sealed on the counter for a week before getting the up courage to open it.

Well today was not the day, maybe tommorow, i guess i will have to keep waiting and driving my family crazy. I would be so happy if i came back not casein intolerant. I am not sure what i would do lol

      Welcome to the forum, @RDB7918393! For some folks, gluten reactions are delayed but I would not think symptoms delayed  of a week or more out would be due to a gluten reaction. Twenty four hours or so but not 7-14 days. I would suspect something else is going on. Eating out is well-known to be the number one sabotaging activity of the gluten-free life style.

      I was diagnosed with Celiac about 10 months ago after having on and off morning stomach cramping and loose stool that only occurred like once a month. So I don’t get immediate reactions…more if build up reactions. I do my best to be gluten free but hard when on vacation and going to restaurants to fully trust cross contamination problems. I find that if I’m cross contaminated, I don’t get a reaction til about a week or two after. The reaction is stomach cramping morning only with flaky stool. Does anyone else have such a delayed reaction like a week or two after being glutened? Or should I go for more testing to see what’s going on.

      Good morning, I saw that a lot of people were asking wether Polly-O products are gluten free. I just called them and all their cheeses are gluten free! Just wanted to let anyone know.    if you still want you can give them a call.

      Your approach is spot-on—trusting reliable sources like Mayo Clinic and sticking to a gluten-free diet that works for you is the best way to navigate all the noise out there. The claim that rice and corn contain forms of gluten harmful to celiacs is indeed a misconception. While these grains do contain proteins that may technically be referred to as "glutens" in a broader scientific sense, they are structurally and functionally different from the gliadin found in wheat, which is the specific protein harmful to those with celiac disease. Scientific research overwhelmingly supports the safety of non-contaminated rice and corn for celiacs unless there’s a separate sensitivity or allergy involved. Some opinion pieces or alternative health sources may blur the lines by conflating these proteins, which can cause unnecessary worry. You're absolutely correct to focus on the distinction between scientifically validated information and anecdotal claims. It's also important to note that some people with celiac disease may develop sensitivities to other grains over time, but this is individual and not a universal rule. If you’re asymptomatic and thriving on a diet that includes certified gluten-free products with rice and corn, there’s no reason to change what’s clearly working for you. The internet is a breeding ground for well-meaning but misguided advice, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Your instinct to validate claims through reliable research is exactly the right way to go. Keep enjoying your gluten-free meals, stick with trusted certifications, and don’t feel pressured to adopt restrictive diets that aren’t backed by science or tailored to your specific needs. Happy New Year to you too!
