I know they might test positive at some later point in life, but for now, both my babies are NEGATIVE for antiendomysial and transglutimase is normal. Did you hear that??? That is a big fat NEGATIVE!!! I didn't know how stressed I was until the doctor said those words and I just started bawling. I was sure at least one would be positive, cuz they called me back in to "review the kids' bloodwork". I can hardly wait to tell them they can still eat their chocolate cake and their Kraft dinner and their pancakes and bread and Smarties and McDonalds...............................

Thank you God!!!!

One way to keep the girls from testing positive in the future is to start them on a gluten-free diet now.

If they never eat wheat or gluten none of the genes can ever be triggered.

Even if you could guarantee that they'd never be positive even on a wheat filled diet, it might still be a good thing. I'm not celiac, and going gluten free has been one of the top five smartest things I ever did, for myself. I wish I HAD been started that way since early childhood or infancy. I truly do.

      Contaminated cooking oils

      By Jsingh · Posted

      I am asking for my six year old. It took us four months to figure out what was going on- a brand of extra virgin olive oil we were using for every meal. We changed the brand she instantly got better- from Gi to nephropathy to joint pain, to tinnitus to dry eyes. You name a symptom and she has it when glutened, so it's difficult to second guess when it's all so obvious. Anyway, two months later, i bought another bottle of the same brand, and the olive oil was sourced form 5 different countries, as opposed to one. It took exactly a month for her symptom to start all over again. And sure enough it was the oil! I am sorta getting tired of trying to get these "healthy" oils glutening her. Does anyone have any thought on cooking oils that they think for sure are not contaminated, or any certified glutenfee brands they suggest? I'd appreciate. At this point, I just need any oil that's free of contamination- healthy or otherwise. Healthier is better. But i'll tkae anything. Thanks

      GLUTEN FREE OCD MEDICATION

      @CeliacPsycho246, You might try cutting out dairy.  Some of us react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as to gluten.
