  1. Hey - Thank you so much for your response! That was all so helpful. I don't feel like I was eating the correct amount for the length of time at all then. I also feel like I might be one of those that fall into that NCGS category. I will have to look at either doing the gluten challenge again and retesting or just staying away from gluten moving forward...
  2. Hi All! A little lengthy story here, so I will cut it short. Last year I started getting symptoms resembling celiac disease. I did the gluten challenge and my tests came back "negative." However, I don't think I was told the right amount of gluten to be eating for this challenge. I had an upper endoscopy done that showed "negative" as well. ...
  3. @Scott Adams Thank you for all of you replies! You have been super helpful. I have one last question - do you if Celiac or a gluten intolerance of some sort can cause positive ANA blood result by any chance?
  4. Thanks ~ So if I was not eating enough gluten before the scope (And it did show a false positive results), would my gut still have damage then? Do you know if doctors will allow for another scope if I did not eat enough prior to this one?
  5. @Scott Adams Question for you - if I wasn't eating enough gluten before I got scoped (endoscopy) could this have shown everything was normal even if I do in fact have celiac? Also, do you know how long it usually takes for your gut to heal?
  6. I will take a look. Thank you so much!
  7. I will look into both of those. Thanks so much for your feedback! So having shaky arms can be a symptom of celiac then? (like from a lack of absorption of a certain vitamin/mineral)?
  8. Hey Thank you Scott! I appreciate your quick response 😊. I am trying so hard to get diagnosed so I know what is going on. I have a doctors appointment this Thursday (I will bring up the blood test since I haven't been consistently eating gluten). As far as supplements - I have been taking a Multi Vitamin, Vitamin D, & B12. I feel like it has helped my...
  9. Hey Everyone! Can celiac disease cause shakes in your arms? I have never experienced this before, but some mornings I wake up & have shakes in my arms. It doesn't happen all the time either. (That along with the rash that I get some times, bleeding gums, nausea, ache/pain in upper abdomen, bloating, gas, weight loss, itchy scalp, fatigue) ...
  10. Thank you! I appreciate your help & response. Hey, thank you! Hey thanks! That is super helpful.
  11. Another question I have while I am still trying to get diagnosed.. does Celiac cause weight loss? (without trying to lose weight) & has anyone experienced bleeding gums from Celiac Disease?
  12. Thank you! That is helpful.. so if I have a scope scheduled next week & I haven't been eating gluten every day, is that going to be a problem?
  13. Hey Thank you! Most people are telling me that eating a tortilla or piece of bread for 2 weeks before the test isn't enough.. Is that the case? I am wondering why my doctor didn't have me go for longer? I have an endoscopy scheduled next week, could me not eating enough gluten right now cause any biopsy to be false negative? (Should I reschedule this) Thanks...
  14. Hi Everyone! I am in the process of being diagnosed right now. Last year from about July on I started losing weight (I've lost about 6 pounds), had diarrhea, fatigue, felt very weak, really bad headaches, starting getting joint aches & muscles aches, my scalp got really dry & flaky & red, I also started to notice this rash on my stomach...
