  1. Just like how celiac disease symptoms can vary greatly from person to person, so can the reaction to gluten or cross-contamination after or during recovery. Many celiacs have little or no symptoms, but this does not mean that the damage and risk to their health is not going on just because the symptoms are not obvious. In the past people in the no...
  2. So I assume that her diet is 100% gluten-free now, but am not sure what you mean when you say that she sometimes gets upset and hurts herself. Does she sneak gluten? Please explain.
  3. It’s positive, and does it give you the positive range for this result as >250 ? Since you were referred to a gastro I suspect your doctor wants to follow up on this result with a biopsy. Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all tests are finished.
  4. Also, one of our site sponsors has made if for years:
  5. Was this German beer gluten-free or gluten removed? If not I would not use a gut test to determine it’s safety, as this can be misleading.
  6. Sure, you may also consider getting a celiac disease blood panel around the same time. If you have DH, you will most likely also have celiac disease.
  7. Yes, I also had gastro issues but at that time I didn't make any connection between the perceived heart issues and those symptoms. Neither did the emergency room doctors. The vertigo heart thing went away after a few weeks on a gluten-free diet, but it took me almost two years to feel back to normal again.
  8. This was accompanied by vertigo and sometimes panic attacks, thus the "stress" diagnosis. I believe this is why celiacs are often misdiagnoses with mental issues because the symptoms can look similar to certain mental issues.
  9. Before I finally got diagnosed with celiac disease and was still eating gluten, I went to the emergency room ~3 times with what I thought was a heart attack (in my mid 20's). Of course it wasn't, and when they did EKG's on me all looked fine and they said it was just "stress." Of course that turned out to be wrong, and after I went gluten-free that feeling...
  10. Can you tell us more what you mean by "Had a scan all okay"? Were you screened for celiac disease? If you do want to know for sure and get a blood test for celiac disease this article might be helpful. You need to keep eating gluten daily for 4-6 weeks before testing, and keep eating it until all tests are completed:
  11. Of course we could not actually diagnose you from this image and your post, however, your symptoms and the image are certainly consistent with DH, and to verify it you would need to keep eating gluten daily and go to a dermatologist who knows how to properly test you for it...that is, if you need an official diagnosis to help you stay gluten-free. For...
  12. Celiac.com 07/03/2020 - In the USA Maltodextrin is generally made from potato, rice or corn, and the "malt" used in the process is not barley malt. So, in the US, maltodextrin is gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease, and...
  13. Why symptoms do nightshades cause both of you? Is it digestive issues like other food intolerance? I’m just curious because I eat them regularly and don’t have digestive issues when I do eat them, but have RLS and wonder it that could be related.
  14. Wow, that is quite a story. I'm glad you found our forum and it has helped you, and welcome! So hopefully you mean "gluten" and not just wheat, because gluten in also in rye and barley, and can be a hidden ingredient in many things that you should avoid on this list:
  15. Celiac.com 07/02/2020 - Lack of long-term follow-up after pediatric-adult transition in celiac disease is not associated with complications, ongoing symptoms or dietary adherence, but researchers are calling for more personally tailored...
  16. We moved Lillie's Q Hot Smoky BBQ Sauce to the no gluten ingredients area.

  18. I've not heard of a fever being a side-effect of a celiac eating gluten, but I don't doubt that you experienced it. It's possible it was coincidental and you had some other thing going on, but it's also possible that your immune system was sent into attack mode and was doing this as part of its response to protect you. It would be interesting to see...
  19. Yes, it does say "gluten-free" on it's label: https://www.kraftheinz-foodservice.com/product/10043000009267/CRYSTAL-LIGHT-Sugar-Free-Energy-Wild-Strawberry-OntheGo-Powdered-Mix-30013-oz-Packets-per-Box-Pack-of-4-Boxes?categoryid=featuredmio Note that it contains aspartame which is an artificial sweetener that can cause stomach and gastro issues...
  20. Celiac.com 06/30/2020 - Summer is upon us again, and somehow summer always means tacos to me. Sure, I like soft shell tacos, but I also love hard shell tacos. When I make hard shell tacos, I like to go with a seasoning mix. Sometimes I...
