Has anyone used the Great Smokey lab for celiac testing? If so, was this a blood or stool sample test?

I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has used or knows particulars about this lab. It has been recommended to me by a naturopathic doctor.

Info on cost will be appreciated - also which of the many panels of tests were used. thanks.

Claire :)

There was a guy on another forum who's doctor had him tested through GSDL. All I know is that he said he had a positive tTG. I believe it was a bloodtest...I didn't even know they were testing for Celiac now. I will try to contact that guy for more info.

      Great tips, Deb. Thanks.  What a pity that they no longer mark items as gluten-free. And it is even more of a shame that you must bring protein bars instead of the crew helping you with your needs. Are you planning on sailing Royal again?

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful:

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.
