Hello Everyone,

New here. I noticed some issues with gluten after I realized my baby daughter would get terrible diaper rash from gluten. So i took it out of her diet and she did a lot better. Then I realized my little boy responded negatively to gluten. I took the plunge myself and went gluten free (about a year ago). I did not noticed BIG differences going gluten free other than: less stomach ache, no more constipation and better sleep/calmer mood. I guess those are big. But the biggest thing I noticed was when I HAD gluten after being gluten free i felt awful and got very constipated.

So, I am currently pregnant with #3 and decided it was a good thing to get myself tested.

I got my results yesterday and since you all are the experts I would like your opinions on it.

I see my IgAs are elevated so thats enough to go gluten free (although not high, but I have been glutenfree/low gluten for over a year now). My Fecal Anti-tissue Transglutaminase IgA is close to being positive, but again I have been low gluten.

The genes is what I am most curious about. What do those genes mean? Does anyone have any links for me. I see I have one celiac gene and one gluten sensitive. I know different genes can mean different things, but I can't seem to decode beyond that.

Would it be prudent now to test the kids?

Do I need to be dairy/soy free? Or are the low IgA's enough to say it is safe?

Thanks for any help

Here are my results:

A) Gluten Sensitivity Stool and Gene Panel Complete *Best test/best value

Fecal Anti-gliadin IgA: 14 Units

Fecal Anti-tissue Transglutaminase IgA: 9 Units

Quantitative Microscopic Fecal Fat Score: Less than 300 Units

Fecal Anti-casein (cow

      Increasing symptoms after going gluten free

      By Aussie Celiac · Posted

      Sometimes celiacs can also have other things like lactose intolerance which is fairly common. Also research fodmap foods, it's quite complicated but there are some other foods which can cause digestive issues. For me it's too many onions and garlic.

      You may be reacting to some of the ingredients used to imitate gluten products. I eat Amy's Chilli quite often with no problems. When I eat Bush's chilli beans or Hormel Chilli with the same ingredient list, I get heartburn.  Break out the alka seltzer.   Barillo spaghetti has CORN FLOUR, RICE FLOUR, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES. Udi's White bread Ingredients - water, tapioca starch, brown rice flour, canola oil, dried egg whites, sugar, tapioca maltodextrin, tapioca syrup, sorghum flour, less than 2% of: rice starch, sorghum grain, flaxseed meal,  gum blend (xanthan gum, sodium alginate, guar gum), apple cider vinegar, apple fiber, molasses, salt, amaranth flour, teff flour, yeast, cultured brown rice, locust bean gum, enzymes Chobani Greek Yogurt Cultured nonfat milk, cane sugar, water, natural flavors, fruit pectin, guar gum, locust bean gum, vanilla extract, lemon juice concentrate.

      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.
