Hi everyone,

Well new to the site so just wanted to let eveyone know we to are battleling the "C" disease, have one son diagnosed after many years of "Oh it's just gas or maybe something not agreeing with his system"

well to make long story short,as a child he suffered severe hives then stomache aches/w-the runs (so he called then) then the fatigue after playing football took him under, and missing most of his high school years,he gets the sores in mouth blisters on one foot like me and 1 brother and so does his dad,this is my youngest son and they diagnoised him 2 years ago with Celiacs Spru-now hubby and I both have same sytoms and so do other 2 sons. We r now going thru many test...will keep posted to let u know wht is found out...There r 5 total of us and several have liquid blisters on feet,hubby has many of the blotches on torsal,elbows,feet,and below where the sun don't shine. One son flairs up so bad they thought was chicken pox for the 3rd time....so we r here for answers to all out symptoms since so far no doc. has answers.....

Let me know ur imputs - glad to hear others

Hi Bea, I can see why you are frustrated. I wish you luck with all that going on. If you all have it, it will be so much easier being able to have a gluten free house. Good Luck

      This is another study that dispels the myth that glyphosate is safe: "Pesticides and prostate cancer incidence and mortality: An environment-wide association study": https://acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cncr.35572

      Welcome to the forum, @Kiwifruit! Were you on a reduced gluten diet when those blood tests or the biopsies were done?

      Hi everyone. I have a history of GI issues (gas, diarrhoea, pain, fatigue). In 2018 I had a a blood test that returned “weak positive” for Celiac (I don’t have access to this result) and in early 2018 I had an endoscopy. The dr said by appearance he believed it would be Celiac but biopsy said no. 2022 I had another blood test with results: Anti TTG IgA: 27 units (norm 0-20) high IgA: 0.9 g/l (norm 0.8 - 4.0) Endomysial antibodies: neg I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy and had the same abnormal appearance but negative biopsies. All my dissachrides were low so I was referred on to a dietitian. I am still struggling with all my GI issues but now with nausea, brain fog and weakness/joint pain even following the low disaccharide diet with enzymes. I’m now pondering my previous results and see that all 3 low disaccharides can also be an indicator of Celiac. I’m struggling and so confused and wondering if anyone has any guidance or advice for me? Thank you

      I agree with @RMJ and unfortunately different celiacs have different trigger levels for gluten, and some celiacs have little or no symptoms at all when exposed to gluten.
