    I hope this will help her as I was still sick after getting off of gluten. Turned out I had antibodies to more than just gluten. There is a test called Cyrex Labs Array #4 that tests for the most common foods you can also react to if you have Celiac Disease or Gluten Intolerance.

    I have the same problem. MRI showed nothing. I know I had Transglutaminase 6 antibodies on a test by Cyrex Labs and Vitamin D was low. Did they refer you to a neurologist? Keep track of your symptoms because 10% of celiacs do get MS. Have your MD test your Vitamin D levels because if you need to take more D3, it could help with depression. Don't feel like...
