    It sounds like you’re really going through it—accidental gluten exposure can definitely take a toll, and when it happens twice close together, it can feel like it drags on even longer. Many people find that each glutening is a bit unpredictable in terms of recovery, and it could take a little extra time if your body hasn’t fully cleared out the first expos...

    @Therockfrog, it sounds like you’ve been through so much, and managing these symptoms must be incredibly challenging. Tingling in your feet and scalp, especially after eating specific foods, can sometimes be related to histamine intolerance or even a sensitivity to certain food proteins, as you’ve suggested. Since you’ve already noticed patterns with glute...

    Exciting news for sure, especially the fact that "existing drugs could be used to interrupt the inflammation process and help treat patients." Having to develop new drugs to target this genetic pathway would take many years, so finding existing drugs that do so could greatly speed up treatments.

    Since your daughter has celiac disease some studies show that up to 44% of first degree relatives also have it, and it sounds like it is very likely that your house may be going gluten-free soon, mostly anyway, due to your daughter's recent diagnosis. If you are in the UK (since you spell it "coeliac"), you may get subsidies and other health system benefits...

    I've not been to Australia, but they have one of the strictest gluten-free standards in the world, and I've heard that going to the larger cities there is easy for those who are gluten-free.

    Autoimmune thyroid disease, like Hashimoto's, can sometimes be associated with mildly elevated TTG levels, but it’s not the primary cause of a high TTG reading. Since celiac disease and autoimmune thyroid conditions frequently coexist, your doctor is right to investigate further. It’s encouraging that your TTG has dropped slightly, which may suggest some flu...

    A simple blood test should be done, and is usually the first step in diagnosing celiac disease. To do this you need to be eating lots of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before doing the test. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease...

    Welcome to the forum. It looks like your DQ8 result is positive, which means you have a small chance of developing celiac disease. You should confirm this with your doctor, or the company who performed the test for you. This does not mean that you have, or will develop celiac disease, but it does mean that you could have it now, or could develop it at...

    I think that there is enough evidence which shows that everyone with suspected IBS should also be screened for celiac disease.

    Aloha! It sounds like you've been through so much with your own health and now your son's too—I completely understand why you're questioning celiac for all of you. Your symptoms and family history really do line up with what many experience with celiac disease. It’s common for it to be missed by doctors who end up treating the symptoms separately, as you...

    I just want to add that many celiacs do not have any obvious symptoms, but still have the same health risks if they continue to eat gluten. Unless all of her first-degree relatives, including yourself, are screened for celiac disease, there is not way to be sure that other relatives don't also have it (some studies have shown that up to 44% of first degree...

    I don't know of any that are certified gluten-free.

    Most egg nogs are naturally gluten-free with very basic ingredients like eggs, milk/cream, sugar, vanilla, and spices. They generally don't bother to label their products gluten-free. Just read the ingredients before purchasing to verify this.
