    Yes, for sure. By the time my family and I have access I would guess that 100M people would have already been given it. I'm ready to go back to normal, and travel, eat out, etc.

    I may not be the most qualified person to answer, but we had a site sponsor a while back called Epilynx, and we did a ton of product reviews which you can see in this category: /celiac-disease/gluten-free-food-reviews/ They make a line of GF cosmetics, lotions, serums, makeup, etc.

    If you don't need an official diagnosis you could simply go gluten-free, if you are sure this is the cause. This isn't recommended by doctors because they may want to do follow up tests later, although none of my doctors have EVER asked me to do any, and I've had to ask about it. I don't want to steer you away from an official diagnosis, or your doctor...

    Oh well, at least you're hopefully now on the mend! Best to know and deal with it. After a while the diet will be second nature, and you will be happy to have your health.

    Hi @Sharron robinson, welcome to the forum! Have you tried some of the things mentioned in this thread? You probably know this already, but maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet is crucial. As a last resort there is Dapsone, which works, but can have some negative side-effects.

    Yes, it may also make sense to check your liver enzymes, as well as thyroid function, as celiac disease can cause issues with both.

    Yes, liver issues are fairly common, and if related, can go away on a gluten-free diet. Here are the articles we have on the topic: /celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/liver-disease-and-celiac-disease/

    At this point it would be a good idea to request a check of your blood vitamin/mineral levels, especially: "Specifically, for vitamin A, 7.5% of patients showed deficient levels, for vitamin B6 14.5%, folic acid 20%, and vitamin B12 19%. Likewise, 67% of celiac patients showed zinc deficiency, 46% showed decreased iron storage, and 32% had anaemia."

    The average time for full recovery from celiac disease is two years. It's great that your antibodies are going down, and if your diet is 100% gluten-free, in theory they should get close to zero.
  15. Scott Adams
    Well, many are under a lot of stress lately, and not used to practicing medicine during a pandemic. What were the results?
  16. Scott Adams
    Insomnia would not be a typical symptom of celiac disease, but in some people celiac disease manifests itself as a nerve disease, and some people can get ataxia, seizures, headaches, etc. It's possible that it is related, and if so, it should get better after time on a gluten-free diet. Have you tried exercise and meditation?
  17. Scott Adams
    I think you should re-check your diet to make sure it's 100% gluten-free, as it sounds like you may have been getting some contamination.
  18. Scott Adams
    You would likely need to look at their web pages, and perhaps ask them directly, but again, I'm not sure why gluten might be added to them.

    If you want to look more at the recent study, it is from the Mayo clinic:

    Full recovery can take up to two years, IF you are 100% gluten-free, and that is easier said than done. Re-check you current diet to make sure there is zero gluten, and you should not eat out until you fully recover if you can avoid it. Some celiacs need to go on a FODMAP diet to get relief, or eliminate other foods they may have issues with, so a food diary...

    They are indeed a sponsor, and have been around for over 20 years and are one of the original prepared gluten-free breads. Many of their breads are also made using sprouted gluten-free breads. I've eaten their breads for many years without any issues, and I've not seen any complaints, product recalls, or other issues about the company.

    Yes, many people get diagnosed when older, and still manage to have a 2nd "new" and long life afterwards. Many never get diagnosed, yet still live a long life, albeit it could be an uncomfortable one if they are symptomatic. As for @AndrewNYC being 104, wow, just wow!
  25. Scott Adams
    Is it possible that they did not specifically look for celiac disease during the first endoscopy? To diagnose celiac disease they typically take at least 4 samples from very specific areas, and may not have done that in your case. I would ask. Have you had a celiac disease blood screening done? This is really the first step, before a biopsy is done...
