Quarter century (25) year old guy here who just found out that i could have celiac disease. I cant tell you how long i've been dealing with GI tract problems (atleast 13 years). i thought everybody had an upset stomach after they ate, or a heavy feeling after slamming beers, so i got used to all the discomfort that i would experience. i found out after a female cousin of mine was having stomach problems for past 5 years and just recently had the 3rd intestine biopsy, which came back positive for celiac disease. our grandmother has the same stomach problems (her stomach 'talks to her' after she eats her bowl of cream-o-wheat in the morning) and her mother has similar problems. uncle has had severe colitis and other stomach problems.

have been 99% gluten free for the past 3-4 weeks and have seen drastic health improvements. cooking and taking food with me when i go out or bringing my own beer (redbridge is all i can find right now) is something i'm still getting used to. being in austin texas really helps out because its filled with restaurants that cater to vegans, so many of my favorite restaurants are aware of gluten and have menus for people with celiac disease. going out downtown or to 6th street is hard because i love the taste of beer and i cant have it anymore (but i'm fine with it cause i know for a fact that its bad and messes with my GI tract) so i try and find ciders or not drink at all.

is it possible to grow out of celiac disease and become gluten tolerant? there is so much cajun cooking i'm missing like bread pudding....pound cake....mmhmmm.... :D

I was just reading the first page about how many women post here vs. men, not realizing it was from 2005. In my health care class last quarter we just discussed how insurance companies prefer young men to young women because we never go to the doctor!

Anyway, I'm a man. Well, male anyway, I'm not sure I'm ready for all the responsibilities that come with using the grown-up terms yet, 19 isn't that old! :P

      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely.  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.

      One small study found that 50% of celiacs react to the dairy protein "casein" like they do to gluten. It is also common for celiacs to be lactose (the sugar in milk) intolerant, though that often disappears in time as the villi heal. About 10% of celiacs react to the oat protein "avenin" like they do gluten.

      Thank you so much Trents (Scott?)! I have started working with a dietitian and did a deep research dive as soon as I got the diagnosis. I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in the withdrawal process - it gives me hope that, although I have felt unwell recently, I just need to be patient (not a strong suit). I have printed the article you sent and will look at it more closely. Thanks again!

      Welcome to the forum, @K6315! Gluten withdrawal typically lasts for a period of a few weeks. But there is a real learning curve involved in actually attaining to a gluten free dietary state. Much more is involved than just cutting out major sources of gluten such as bread and pasta. It's all the places that gluten is hidden in the food supply that is difficult to ferret out, like soy sauce and canned tomato soup, canned chili and canned pork n' beans, some "lite" pancake syrups, potato salad, flavorings, etc., etc. Gluten-containing grain products are hidden through alternate terminology and found in places you would never expect.  There is also "cross contamination" where naturally gluten free foods come into contact with gluten-containing grains during farming, transportation, storage and manufacturing processes. Then there is the issue of "cross reactivity" whereby you may be having gluten-like reaction to food proteins whose structure is similar to gluten. Chief among these are dairy, oats (even gluten-free oats), soy, corn and eggs. I am including this article that you might find helpful:
