Ugh. I hope you feel better quickly.

That happened to me a few weeks ago. It really ticked me off too. We spend years basically having food poisoning every day, then when we figure it out, we still get food poisoning. I think we should be exempt. Mother nature is a real $#*&% sometimes.

It's a real pain (pun not intended) to be so careful about what we eat then to be done in by carelessness of others. AAARRRGGGG Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for the support. What ended up being the worst was trying to convince people that it was not a gluten reaction. If that's the price I have to pay for supportive friends and family that take celiac seriously, well I have it good then.

The same thing happened to me last night! I went to a place in NYC after work. I spoke to the waitress about my Celiac and she spoke to the chef and assured me that the Ceviche did not have gluten. I can tell it did not have gluten since in addition to my gi symptoms I get very bad brain fog and have motor probs after eating gluten and honestly I am not NEARLY this sick after eating gluten. I had the Ceviche at 6:30 last night and I still can't eat. I have been trying to eat this bowl of chicken soup since 2pm. It's so frustrating that I can do everything that I am supposed to do and still wind up so sick.

I got food poisoning last week - from the only place in town that offers sandwiches on gluten-free bread! This is so frustrating! I got really sick - fortunately, it didn't last more than a few hours. We called the place to let them know, and they had gotten another call from someone getting sick - the link between the two of us was avocado. I can't believe I finally found a place to get a sandwich, and now this!

      Celiac Test Results - Thoughts?

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, there is a trend in the medical community to forego the endoscopy/biopsy and grant an official celiac diagnosis based on high tTG-IGA antibody scores alone. This trend started in the UK and is spreading to the USA medical community. And yes, 5-10x the normal level is what I have been seeing as the threshold as well. Here is the relevant section dealing from the article above dealing with the importance of the total IGA test being ordered. See the embedded attachment.

      Ok, interesting. Not what I was thinking that meant. I'm reading the article and trying to understand. I see this “According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy” My IgG is 90, which is 6 times. So to me that means it's highly likely I do have it.

      It just means you aren't IGA deficient, i.e., that IGA deficiency cannot have given you artificially low scores in the individual IGA celiac antibody tests. This is explained in the article Scott linked above.

      Normal range: 70 - 400 mg/dL, a little above middle of the range. So what does that mean? Thank you! I will check out that page you linked. Appreciate it!

      Asking for Help Understanding Endoscopy/Biopsy Lab Results

      By trents · Posted

      Well, the only thing I would conclude with would be, if you choose not to trial the gluten free diet, is to encourage you to get periodically tested, either antibody blood tests or the biopsy or both. I think it something that needs to be monitored.
