Less Allergies After Going Gluten Free!

Well, This June, my normal severe pollen allergy season came and went with only 2 days of minimal allergy symptoms! I am usually on an medications thru June and suffering terribly.

I have read a lot about the "corresponding" pollen and food categories. I had wondered if getting off of all the things that I couldn't tolerate would influence this.

I have been Gluten free for one year now and other things as well, and low and behold, I don't appear to have a bad pollen allergy!!!!!! Any input? Anyone else notice this??

I have had absolutely no hay fever allergies since going gluten free in 2003! So yes, I can celebrate with you on this!

Before I was diagnosed my allergist did testing and I was allergic to 98 of the 99 things he tested for. I felt like I had to live in a glass box and my asthma was awful.

I now only have actual allergies to 3 of those things, my yew bushes, soy and cat spit. As my allergist explained my immune system was in hyperdrive due to the celiac. With the immune reaction from the celiac my system was reacting to everything, even my own body because of the gluten reaction.

      Endoscopy

      By Soleihey · Posted

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.

      Thank you for the update.  So interesting to know how things are changing, when I was diagnosed I had very similar blood results but still had to have the endoscopy.  Glad you know where you stand.  As your father has celiac disease you probably already know a lot about it, but do contact us if we can help further.

      But isn't it easier to just take a D3 supplement? Is the D light somehow a superior source? Links?
