I believe as long as you are good about always being gluten free your blood test numbers should be normal and you shouldn't develop other issues. There are always exceptions, but for most it's just a game of avoid the gluten.

Pain in the hip and leg is quite common when the sacroiliac joint is out. A physical therapist can check if your hip is out and teach you how to put it back in yourself. It can take a month of exercises to get it to stay in on its own.

You can try a very basic diet of meat, eggs, cooked vegetables and see if your numbers reach normal. If so, gradually add ingredients until you find the culprit.

Commercial microwave meals

Udis chicken florentine (gluten free) is as addictive as Lean Cuisine Swedish meatballs (not gluten free). So if you used to eat the swedish meatballs then you'll like the Udis chicken florentine. -
Warning: I am able to have dairy. My protein drink is 1/3 scoop Fitness Labs 100% whey protein mixed in Morning Moos chocolate drink (3 heaping tablespoons). I go through a #10 can of chocolate drink every week. Mashed potato soup: If you can't have dairy leave out the cheese and use earth balance fake butter. Doesn't taste as good without...

I use Vitamin Friends iron gummies with success (strawberry). I'm on a 100% liquid diet at the moment. I take my supplements at the beginning of having a bowl of soup. I then have my protein drink approx 1 1/2 hours later. This seems to keep my stomach happy. I try to avoid powdery pills. Gummy multivitamin, gummy B complex, gummy iron, Liquid magnesium,...

You have about 15 feet of small intestine. Endoscopy sees the first foot. So you can still have damage that has not yet healed further along the pipe. If you never eat outside of your home you can buy those Ez gluten test strips and test everything you consume. If you do eat away from home you could be getting glutened out there. In my case all...

Do I need a Gluten Service DOG?
tessa25 replied to Jenny's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
In your position I would have her switch her cereal and oatmeal over to gorilla munch cereal. It's gluten-free, and corn-based. I would also try a more limited diet for a month and retest the numbers to see if they go down at all. If they're still not going down then I would limit the diet more and see if I can get the numbers to go down. I would definitely... -
Reynaud's - how do YOU manage the symptoms?
tessa25 replied to squirmingitch's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I have Zanier heated gloves, but my Marmot Expedition mittens work better for walking the dogs. When your core and head are cold your body sacrifices the extremities or so I've been told. -
Reynaud's - how do YOU manage the symptoms?
tessa25 replied to squirmingitch's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I've had Raynauds since high school. Try keeping your core warmer by wearing a vest under your jacket and a hat. -
I used to use Oil of Olay sensitive skin, but when I got a Nima Sensor it tested positive for gluten and I switched to Jergens Daily moisture fragrance free. Nima isn't meant for testing non food products, but I can't take the risk.

7 weeks in still having symptoms
tessa25 replied to joe3530's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Vacuum the crumbs and use the self clean cycle on your oven. Wash hands before nail biting or take up gum chewing instead if that works. Clean off the residue completely then put in dishwasher if they are dishwasher safe. Buy a Nima Sensor to test food you are unsure about. No. At three months is a good first test to... -
In tears....:(
tessa25 replied to Laurel F's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It sounds like you were not given the full celiac panel. The full celiac panel includes: TTG IGA TTG IGG DGP IGA DGP IGG EMA IGA You have to be eating gluten daily for 12 weeks before the blood test. A positive on any one blood test should lead to a gastroenterologist doing an endoscopy /biopsies to confirm a celiac diagnosis. -

Confused I Need Your Help Please
tessa25 replied to Manal's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Lab results are useless without ranges so call your doctor and ask for a hard copy of the results. I'm guessing they just gave you a number over the phone. -

Your results should include normal ranges. Can you post the ranges as well? -
