Altoid gum has gluten in it. Trident , I believe is ok, and most others , but there are a lot of new gums out now, one is a dragonfruit cube gum- it has gluten in it. Sorry not an exhaustive list but the altoid one was my first experience with a glutened gum after that I started looking at the little tiny writing on the wrapper.

      I lean towards very probably celiac disease due to the two positive tTg-IgA blood tests. Although there are other things that might cause this test to be elevated in certain individuals, the most likely cause by far would be gluten sensitivity.  This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.

      Dangerously underweight, Perfect gluten free and insomnia

      @SaiP, I noticed that you are eating foods that are high in histamine.  Bananas, avocados, spinach, gluten, and tuna are high histamine foods or are histamine liberators.  Histamine is released by mast cells in the body as part of the autoimmune reaction to gluten.  High histamine foods add to that histamine burden, making clearing histamine difficult.    Histamine is a helpful neurotransmitter, causing alertness.  We wake after sleep because our body produces histamine.  BUT, excess histamine causes insomnia.   We need vitamins and minerals, like Thiamine, Pyridoxine, Cobalamine, Vitamin C, and magnessium, to help our body break down and clear out histamine.   We need Thiamine and the other B vitamins to turn carbohydrates, like white rice, protein and fats into energy and fuel for the body.  The more carbohydrates you eat, the more thiamine is needed above normal.  More thiamine is needed when physically sick, or emotionally stressed.  Losing weight until skin and bones is a symptom of Thiamine deficiency. White rice is stripped of nutrients like Thiamine, when the germ is removed to make it white.  Vitamins added to enriched rice can be lost if the rice is washed.  If you are increasing your rice consumption, you need to increase your thiamine.  The form Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing. Healthy fats like olive oil should be included in the diet.  Our body likes to use healthy fats as fuel.   Do look into a low histamine gluten free diet.

      The first lab was different because Allina switched which lab they work with in between March and October. But October and January were the same lab. All through Allina but two separate labs.
