    Yeah, I have my blood test results in my original post. Only my tTg iGa was elevated. I have an my referral appointment with my GI doctor this Tuesday. After doing some talking, I started the gluten challenge Thursday night. That way by the time I see him, I would have been eating gluten for almost a week. So hopefully he will be able to schedule the endoscopy...

    Thank you so much, you have provided us with great information! I will be sure to read it all ! Very much appreciated I will definitely post again once we have a diagnosis. As I am sure the gluten has to do with the “odour” (not a sweaty, perspiration odour)

    The bacteria and fungi in our digestive tract can change depending on what we eat. By excluding gluten from his diet, your son has changed his microbiome and his body odor has changed. Undigested carbohydrates like gluten are digested by bacteria in our digestive tract. Some bacteria and yeasts produce gases as a byproduct of this breakdown...

    Welcome to the forum, and to me it sounds like she has an anaphylactic allergy to wheat, rather than celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. If her throat swells when she comes into contact with wheat, it can be very serious, and even deadly. She should have an epi-pen for this allergy in case she ever gets exposed. As a roommate it can obviously be difficult...

    Thank you all for the info. It is very new to me but that completely makes sense. Even if I tried them I would not know if I was glutened or not. I am pretty well asymptomatic. They sound alright though I will contact the manufacturer to be sure

    In Canada, any source of wheat, rye, or barley must be identified by its plain name in the ingredient list or in a Contains statement immediately below the ingredient list. If the natural flavor contained barley it would be listed as "natural flavor (barley)". If the maltodextrin was made from wheat, it would be listed as "maltodextrin (wheat)". If the yeast...

    Celiac and body odour

    The three gluten containing grains are wheat, barley and rye. Celiac disease is not an allergy to gluten. It is an autoimmune reaction that is triggered by the ingestion of gluten and utilizes an entirely different immune system pathway than do allergies. However, it is certainly possible to also have an allergy to wheat, barely or rye along with celiac disease...

      Have you had a DNA test to look for the most commonly occurring Celiac genes?   There's some scientific evidence that Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity is a precursor to Celiac Disease in genetically predisposed people. Which foods do you react to?  How do you react?

      You are right, I just feel I may have not been on top of it and Ive caused damage for years without knowing. Seems like nothing though?

      No, one crumb from a month before the blood test would not materially affect the results of the test. I sense you are devoting a lot more "worry energy" to this than it deserves. That will do you more harm than a tick over normal on the TTG-IGA score.

      Sometimes I have a bit of stomach, discomfort, anxiety, tiredness, and soreness but nothing that stops by normal day to day activities. I work a ton and am very active so likely it is related to that and not my celiac but unsure with everyone's symptoms and stories I see online.  I will definitely start doing this every year from now on. Could one crumb of gluten from a month before that blood test caused that spike ? I am trying to really trace back and think
