Have alot of neck pain at the base of the skull? Right where your skull and spine meet? Mine has been killing me. Some days are far worse than others. I have alot of issues with Celiac Disease and even though I have been gluten-free for 4 months with maybe one or two accidental "glutenings", I am still having that pain in my neck and it feels like my glands under my jaw and arms are swollen from time to time. I just had Ct scans on chest, abdomen and pelvis and they were all good so I didn't know if maybe my immune system is causing the glands to be swollen? I don't have a cold and I have had tons of CBCs done. All my blood work was fine. :)

I had pain at the base of my skull for months before I was diagnosed and now only when accidently glutened. It was awful--like I'd been hit in the back of the head with a 2x4. It's actually one of the first things I feel the morning after I get a gluten reaction.

It was a while before it went away completely--hopefully as you are gluten-free longer and get the hang of the diet it'll subside

I also have diagnosed TMJ Disfunction (by ENT), and mine is always worse when glutened--has to be a tie-in there somewhere :D

      Oats gluten free?

      By trents · Posted

      I disagree, Lori. Gluten is a particular protein, not a category of proteins. It is found in wheat, barley and rye. Other cereal grains have proteins that resemble gluten to one degree or another but are not gluten. Gluten is gluten. Avenin is avenin. But yes, it is true, that informally speaking, some have used the term "gluten" to refer to the proteins found in these other cereal grains. It's like the term "kleenex" has come to refer to all facial tissues.

      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.

      Search “deamidated gliadin Abs, IgG is 26.6/abnormal high” online for articles on your exact question above, and I’m sure this forum has an expert in explaining your test results as well.
