Hi all, long time no see. Well, my results came back, and I am not a celiac. Turns out this entire time I've been mistaking lactose intolerance with gluten sensitivity... I've have tested this and I am indeed lactose intolerant. I just wanted to give you all an update and thank you for your support. Cheers. -
Was she on the Gluten Challenge / Eating Gluten Daily for at least two weeks before doing the blood test? This is important.

Upon further review, my 23andMe test also shows that I am very likely to be Lactose intolerant. This is very strange since I can eat lots of dairy products without any issues. I do know that eating cheese that has 0 sugar means that it is very low in lactose. Either way, something else I will investigate and probably speak to my Dr about after my Celiac test...

What You Need to Know about Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis and Testing

Hi, my genetic data from 23andMe shows HLA-DQ2.5 Gene: HLA-DQA1 Where would that put me on the above chart? I am having trouble understanding since mine has a 2.5 Thanks -
Oooo, yeah I get that as well. Especially from the plastic medical tape. If I leave it on long enough I break out in hives. Not sure if that is Celiac related though.
-
Thanks
-
Just preparing for when I get my results. If it comes back negative and lets say I have NCGS, would I be ok, occasionally eating foods that don't bother me? Since there is no damage being done to the intestines. Is there anyone out there with NCGS that can also comment? Thanks again! 🙂

My dad has reactions to elastics. Elastics are usually made of latex. I think you might have a latex allergy.

Thanks Onegiantcrunchie

Sorry to double post, there is no edit option. Lets say it comes back negative. What would you do after that? Keeping in mind the fact that I can eat most things and feel fine (to my surprise). If that's the case, maybe its something else all together?
-
Yeah I hear ya. To be honest though, aside from the episode I had today with those glazed doughnuts, I've been fine. No problems at all. Very strange...

I actually mentioned that to him, and his reply was "I think that is too drastic, lets do a blood test for now."

Hi trents! Thanks so much for the reply. That is great information. As for if I actually have celiac disease, I guess I will have to wait and see what my blood test comes back with. I know something has definitely been going on all these years. Question is, what. I think I will do the full 8 weeks to make sure I get an accurate reading on my blood test...

You will go through a withdrawal from lots of comfort foods for sure. Most important thing is to focus your thinking on positive things like researching replacement foods. You're not the only one out there. This seems to be a great site for support. I just joined myself. Nice to meet you! Hang in there.

Hi all! Wondering if you could give me some input? I will try and keep this as short as possible. To start, here is where I come from: CIRCA the age of 15 I've been having issues with pain in my gut, especially after eating white pasta (white pasta is my kryptonite). At one point I didn't have a bowel movement for 2 weeks! Up until the age of 2...
