    Scott Adams's post in Does Hashimoto’s Hypothyroidism elevate Ttg levels ? I have had 3 blood test results where ttg levels are around 39-43 (range 0-19). The first test was in 2021 before I was diagnosed with autoimmune thyroid disease. I had an endos was marked as the answer   
    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, ...

    I've not heard of a connection between gluten and styes, but it's possible. For years I had blepharitis as a symptom whenever I got gluten contamination.

    Scott Adams's post in Question about RW Knudsen cider and spice drink was marked as the answer   
    I see the info below in their FAQ, but nothing that would worry me about their apple cider. I don't see how gluten could end up in a juice processing plant, but if you are concerned you could contact them directly for more info. If wheat...

    Scott Adams's post in unreal blood test results, at least to me was marked as the answer

    Scott Adams's post in Gluten free foods made on shared equipment was marked as the answer   
    For you it sounds like this will be the case, but no two celiac diets are alike, and there is no "one size fits all" in this case. Another examples is how some celiacs choose to eat out at restaurants, while others never will.

    Scott Adams's post in New and Frustrated was marked as the answer   
    How much gluten were you eating on a daily basis before your blood and biopsy tests for celiac disease were done? It's recommended to eat lots of gluten, at least two slices of wheat bread per day for 6-8 weeks before getting tested,...

    Scott Adams's post in Vertigo was marked as the answer   
    Vertigo was a primary symptom for me before I went gluten-free, so it is a definite possibility.

    Scott Adams's post in Holland & Barrett Supplements was marked as the answer   
    They should be naturally gluten-free, and likely safe for you, but if you have concerns you could switch to a brand that specifically says "gluten-free" on its label, either before or after you finish the bottle you have.

    Scott Adams's post in Testing for small intistine cancer was marked as the answer   
    If you have been diagnosed already with celiac disease, then you would not need to eat gluten again, especially if you are trying to get screened for cancer. Cancer screening would not include a gluten challenge, only testing for celiac...

    Scott Adams's post in Confusing symptoms was marked as the answer   
    Many people with celiac disease are asymptomatic, but unfortunately if they keep eating gluten they still run the same health risks as those who have symptoms.

    Scott Adams's post in Can damage done be repaired by gluten-free diet? was marked as the answer   
    If you have celiac disease and go 100% gluten-free most damage can heal relatively quickly.

    Scott Adams's post in New diagnosis? was marked as the answer   
    A positive test is still positive, and I personally don't believe in such a thing as a "weak positive," as this designation is relatively new, and began around 10 years ago.

    Scott Adams's post in Daughters blood Test and nursing questions was marked as the answer   
    There is currently no evidence suggesting that gluten passes through breast milk in amounts that could trigger celiac disease in a breastfeeding infant. The primary concern for a breastfeeding mother would be her own health and diet,...
