  3. Your symptoms--all of them--are associated with untreated celiac disease and/or gluten sensitivity. I had many of them myself when I was diagnosed at ~25 years old--and it is interesting that you mentioned your eyesight improvement to 20/20, as I also had to wear corrective glasses at the time of my diagnosis, but after 2-3 years on a gluten-free diet I no...

  6. This is an interesting case. A positive tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibody with a negative endomysial antibody (EMA) and normal duodenal histology can present a diagnostic challenge, especially in an asymptomatic patient. While the absence of villous atrophy and negative EMA suggest that the likelihood of active celiac disease is low at this time, such...

  9. It’s great that you’re taking the time to research products carefully for your son with celiac disease—especially since accidental gluten exposure through skincare can be a real concern for sensitive individuals. Based on the ingredient lists you’ve shared, none of the products appear to contain obvious sources of gluten like wheat, barley, or rye derivat...
  10. That happened to me as well @trents! I always wondered it that regimen caused my celiac disease!
  11. While I don’t have a specific personal recommendation, there are several ways to find a skilled GI doctor in Tucson who specializes in celiac disease. Check the Celiac Disease Foundation’s Healthcare Practitioner Directory for listed providers in Arizona: https://celiac.org/about-celiac-disease/find-a-healthcare-practitioner/ Also, local healthcare sys...
  12. The white matter changes seen in celiac disease in the referenced study are likely multifactorial: Possibly linked to chronic inflammation, autoimmune activity, nutrient malabsorption, and brain hypoperfusion. Thiamine deficiency may contribute, especially in those with long-standing untreated celiac or poor dietary intake, but it's not the...

  14. It's possible that your doctor wants you to do an endoscopy to confirm the diagnosis, and if that is the case that could be why they don't want you to go gluten-free before that procedure is done. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends...
  15. Yes, we've been tracking possible treatments for many years, and here is one of our more recent articles:

  17. I'm not in any clinical trials, can I ask why you are so focused on this particular one? There are now several celiac disease potential treatment drugs undergoing clinical trials.
  18. Celiac.com 07/28/2025 - Gluten-free diets are essential for people with celiac disease, a condition where gluten—a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye—triggers an immune response that damages the small intestine. However, in recent yea...
  19. Celiac.com 07/26/2025 - Going gluten-free isn’t just a matter of swapping out bread and pasta—it’s a full-on lifestyle adjustment. For those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, even trace amounts of gluten can trigger serious sympt...
  20. It looks like their most recent clinical trial just finished up on 5-22-2025.
  21. KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-fo...
  22. Be sure to find a doctor who can treat you. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary.
