Oh, @Yaya! Five years??? How awful for you to suffer so long! My Vitamin D came up in a matter of months. High dose Vitamin D has been used in the past to correct rickets and is a safe method to correct Vitamin D deficiency. I took 1000 IU several times a day, every day for several weeks. I ate them like m&m's when I was severely deficient... -

GLUTEN FREE OCD MEDICATION
@CeliacPsycho246, My OCD symptoms resolved after I took supplements of the active form of Pyridoxine B6 called P5P and L-Theanine, an amino acid. Pyridoxine B6 is absorbed from foods or supplements and then must be changed to its active form. P5P is the active form. Inflammation and malabsorption can impede this process. Taking the active form...- 1

GLUTEN FREE OCD MEDICATION
You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance"...- 1

High dose Vitamin D has been used in the past to correct rickets and is a safe method to correct Vitamin D deficiency. I took 1000 IU several times a day, every day for several weeks. I ate them like m&m's when I was severely deficient. My brain craved them. I felt so much better afterwards. On maintenance dose now. Yes, the craving went away as my level reached 80-95. Ask your cardiologist about supplementing with.Benfotiamine. -

@CeliacPsycho246, My OCD symptoms resolved after I took supplements of the active form of Pyridoxine B6 called P5P and L-Theanine, an amino acid. Pyridoxine B6 is absorbed from foods or supplements and then must be changed to its active form. P5P is the active form. Inflammation and malabsorption can impede this process. Taking the active form is beneficial because it is ready to be used immediately. L-Theanine is a natural amino acid that helps immensely with anxiety. Together these two supplements really work to relieve OCD. I like Life Extension brand of P5P, but there are others that are labeled gluten free, too. L-Theanine is found in chocolate, but as much as I love chocolate, Theanine supplements work better. Hope you are open to trying these as a stop-gap until your doctor's appointment. Keep us posted on your results. -

One positive blood test result means you likely have celiac disease, but to confirm it they may want to do an endoscopy to verify it with biopsies. Unless you have severe symptoms now, you likely should continue eating gluten daily until all testing is completed, and should eat tons of gluten daily in the 2 weeks before an endoscopy.
