Wow!! :o:o:o

I am especially stunned about the "short 5th finger"... I was diagnosed with a severe case of hypothyroidism in August. Looking back, I definitely had symptoms by the time I was a teenager. My dad just found out that he has hypothyroidism too.

I also had a pregnancy loss at 17 weeks. This is a really unusual time to have a loss... the chances are less than 1% (risk is highest during the first trimester and goes back up to around 6% during the third trimester). By some miracle, we have two living children, but my husband would like to try again. However... doctors don't want to test for anything until you've had at least two losses. Grrr!!! I've been exploring on my own because I am just NOT willing to go through that again if I can prevent it.

My seven-month-old is definitely intolerant to casein (maybe gluten too) and he has short pinkie fingers... I'm going to check my daughter when I pick her up from preschool!

      Family education

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @sillyyak52, Count another one in the same boat!  My family has always been in denial.  They said my tummy aches were a ploy to miss school.  My parents passed from health problems associated with uncontrolled Celiac Disease (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and Glioblastoma brain tumor).  My sister still has her head buried in the sand.   I agree with @Rogol72, try the consequences of untreated celiac disease shock treatment.  Sometimes people are just scared of having to change their comfortable lifestyle.

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By Lotte18 · Posted

      I have never been tested for tTg 6 antibodies but I will certainly do that next time I'm at the doc's.  Maybe there's a home test kit for that?  I drink lactose free milk and seem to be ok so I'm probably not a casein case but...who knows?!

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      I take Life Extension brand Mega Benfotiamine, (250 mg with each of two meals) and Maxlife Natural TTFD-B1 Max Thiamine (100 mg).   I try to take my Benfotiamine and TTFD before four pm, otherwise I have so much energy, it can be hard to fall asleep.

      Some people react to the Casein in dairy the same as to gluten, like me.  I avoid dairy avidly because I get ataxia so bad. Some Celiac people produce tTg 6 antibodies in response to gluten or casein.  tTg 2 antibodies are what blood tests for Celiac measure.  tTg 6 antibodies are also found in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, contributing to ataxia.  Have you been checked for tTg 6 antibodies?   P. S.  Can you share your B vitamin test results?

      False blood test positive?

      I agree that you were not eating sufficient gluten prior to your endoscopy.
