  1. Thank you so much for your advice! My vitamin levels are definitely low due to diet and lifestyle preferences (i.e. low vitamin D due to limited sun exposure etc) so I do believe the blood tests were correct. I am just now realizing that the symptoms that I thought were Celiac related (while being on a gluten-free diet) were probably related to deficiencies...
  2. Thank you. I posted in the post diagnosis section that I am now looking for book/research recommendations and supplement recommendations. The switch to being SUPER strict with cross contamination is very daunting.
  3. Hello, I was recently diagnosed with celiac after being gluten free for nearly 2 years and doing a gluten challenge. I would love to really learn more about the disease and how to manage it. Is there a place for book recommendations on managing celiac or any links to frequently referenced clinical studies or peer-reviewed research? Also, now that...
  4. I wanted to share an update with everyone regarding my results in case this is helpful to anyone. I have been biopsied and received an official Celiac diagnosis today.
  5. Thank you for the explanation. This has been so overwhelming as my PCP has been unhelpful but I have an appt with a gastro who can hopefully provide clarify and arrange a biopsy.

  8. Do you think I should ask my gastro to re-do the blood test?
  9. What does that mean for my results? Could/should they be higher?
  10. My symptoms are mainly My symptoms are primarily gastrointestinal and some brain fog. I was actually gluten free for the last 18 months after identifying a sensitivity via an elimination diet. My PCP ordered the blood test without telling me about the gluten challenge so this is actually my second test, but the only one I have done since reintroducing...
  11. Hello everyone! I am wondering if someone could help me interpret my celiacs blood test results. The blood tests were ordered by my PCP who is not knowledgeable on celiacs and I had to really push for the tests. It will take a few months to see a gastro so I am hoping someone with a bit more knowledge can help me out in the event that my PCP is unable...
