  1. What you describe are definitely classic symptoms of gluten sensitivity and/or celiac disease. Of course it could be something else, but perhaps give the gluten-free diet another try, and this time for a longer period. Here is more in symptoms:
  2. It's got to be gluten-free. I suspect the app has an issue. I've never heard of any bottled water that contains any gluten. PS - Their site says it's 100% spring water: https://www.ozarkawater.com/
  3. I really don't drink milk, but in my family those who do recently switched from Lactaid milk to oat milk (which is certified gluten-free).
  4. Yes, it is definitely possible. Some people seem to have delayed symptoms, while others feel ill right away, and then there are some with no symptoms. If you are going to cheat, which I would not recommend to anyone with celiac disease, you'd better get GliadinX enzymes (a sponsor here), which have been shown in studies to break down SMALL AMOUNTS of...
  5. Yes, I recently wrote an article about my experience with ALCAT food sensitivity testing, and I wrote questions to the Roger Deutsch, the founder of the company. The full article is at:
  6. This article might be helpful: Celiac disease can cause vitamin and mineral deficiencies, which could contribute to the possibility of developing gout.
  7. This is a really good question, and we recently did an article on a doctor who believes that there will indeed be post-pandemic a spike in CD and diabetes cases:
  8. I don't recall seeing any studies done that would compare antibody tests on a daily basis, but I believe they are known to be relatively stable. This means that it takes weeks for them to move up or down significantly, so if you've been gluten-free for a year or more you would need to eat gluten daily for at least 6-8 weeks, and perhaps up to 12 weeks, before...
  9. It's great that he's supporting you, and it will make your life much easier and worry-free compared to him eating and preparing foods with gluten in them at home.
  10. I too believe that replacing cookware may be excessive, especially if it is made of steel, aluminum or other metals. You should be able to scrub them clean enough to not get contamination, and if you wanted to be extra sure you could heat them on high on the stove or oven for a while to burn anything off.
  11. I think celiac disease is still more likely, however, I do know that a doctor is unlikely to make this diagnosis given a negative biopsy. So where does this leave patients? In my brother's case, that was very similar to this, they told him "good news, no celiac disease so you don't have to go gluten-free!" This happens often, even with positive blood tests...
  12. This article by Jean Duane PhD might be helpful, and she describes celiac disease as a "social disease":
  13. If this isn't a financial issue, I would get a DNA test, and if @CeliMomi got their child's biopsy results back, and they are negative, I would still suspect non-celiac gluten sensitivity, and consider consulting with the doctor about trying a gluten-free diet. The positive tests, and symptoms going away on a GFD, would likely confirm gluten sensitivity.
  14. Again, I've driven all over California's farming areas, and don't see any straw in the strawberry fields, but straw is gluten-free, even wheat straw. I am very skeptical of any claim that ANY farm or home grown strawberries would contain any gluten, even if wheat straw were used. A simple washing would remove anything on the outside. Are you worried that...
  15. Given that Tito's is a distilled beverage, no proteins are present in the end product anyway, so it should not make any difference it it's made with GMO corn or not, as you're not consuming any corn.
  16. Celiac.com 06/16/2021 - Weeks after SARS-CoV-2 infection or exposure, some children develop a severe, life-threatening illness called Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C). A new study offers hope for diagnosis, treatment...
  17. I left out Iron…check your iron levels as well.
  18. Celiac.com 06/15/2021 - With summer unofficially upon us, and officially looming, here are nine classic gluten-free cocktails to enjoy with Bacardi Rum. Bacardi Coconut & Pineapple Ingredients: 1½ ounces Bacardi Coconut ...
  19. Welcome to the forum! We've done many articles on pregnancy and celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=pregnancy&quick=1&type=cms_records2&search_in=titles and we've had people post here that their pregnancy actually triggered their celiac disease. Before going gluten-free it would be ideal if you could get a celiac...
  20. PS - I believe that in the USA "Spices" cannot contain gluten, and all wheat must be declared on the allergen statement.
  21. There is indeed a connection, and you can view some of our articles that mention this here: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=Thrombocytopenic&type=cms_records2&search_and_or=and
  22. Pesticides don't have gluten, you just want to consume as close to zero of them as possible. Some fruits use larger amounts, and types that are more toxic, and non-organic commercial strawberries and well known to be in this category.
  23. These would be a good place to start: Vitamin A deficiency Vitamin B1 deficiency Vitamin B6 deficiency Vitamin B12 deficiency Vitamin D deficiency Vitamin K deficiency Magnesium deficiency Zinc deficiency
