    You test .... was it the FULL Celiac panel? My sister got tested and the doc on tested one type of antibody.
  2. Beverage
    Yes this is why Celiac's is so hard to diagnose. I was lucky in a way that although I had no intestinal symptoms, my kidneys were failing, but my Celiac blood tests were off the charts. It took a naturopathic doctor in 15 minutes to figure out what traditional docs could not in 30 years. Best of luck.

    You can search the topics to find out more, but the DNA test would determine if you have the possibility to develop Celiac's or not. The DNA does not indicate if you have triggered it, and you have active Celiac's, it only tells you if you have the potential to trigger / activate it. You need to make sure that wherever you get the test done does all...

    Did you get the dna test?

    Naturopathic doctor who is very on top of things, from Dr. Jonathan Wright's office in the Seattle area.

    I did ... but no results. They had the gluten-free egg things for a trial, but stopped those. I'll mention it again though.

    Me too! This really helped me: https://drjockers.com/hiatal-hernia/ We actually need acid to digest food and get the vitamins available for the upper intestines to absorb them. So don't fall for antacids, except for a short time to allow for some healing. Antacids will cause you a world of hurt if used long term. Putting risers at head...

    I did not get the endoscopy and I do have an official written diagnosis from a doctor. I'm in the U.S. We had to satisfy 3 criteria: 1. positive antibody test 2. positive DNA test and 3. good response to a gluten free diet.

    If it's not marked gluten free, I strongly recommend not taking it. Could be gluten free ingredients, but could be processed on shared equipment. In store brands are generally manufactured by the cheapest bidder.

    I've spoken with a few executives at Starbucks. My step son is one. No, not gluten free, nothing there is really safe unless pre-packaged and marked gluten free.
  11. Beverage
    These are marked gluten free and really fresh when purchased directly from the manufacturer, much fresher than what I have purchased from my grocery store. Sign up for their newsletter and they have regular specials: https://mortonbassett.com/ Also I asked about their vanilla extract, and it is NOT made with alcohol from a gluten grain.

    I found a lot of relief by following this, apple cider vinegar before any meal with protein really really really helped: https://drjockers.com/hiatal-hernia/

    I had bad acid reflux, and one of the things that helped is propping up the bed a little bit at the head. We started with a piece of 2x4 wood, and then added another 2x4 at the head a few days later, and the single 2x4 at the legs in the middle of the bed. Most articles say to elevate 8" to make a difference, but I can't imagine that incline, and it wasn...

    Search for KnittyKitty posts about B1 thiamine deficiency! It helped me TREMENDOUSLY!

    If it has a teeny bit, that's too much. You can call and ask what they use. No, using gliadenx is not a good idea, you must not consume any known gluten. I have read that others made their own little wafers at Home and brought a batch for the priest to bless and deliver from a separate container. My mom used to just take it mentally, i.e., get the blessing...

    With a history of anaphylaxis, nope.
  17. Beverage
    I could eat a little gluten and get absolutely no intestinal symptoms. So yes, absolutely get a different doctor.

    Bob's has gluten free oats, which caused me a BIG problem. I am sure their oats are gluten free, meaning that they meet the legal requirements to make that claim, but must be at the higher end of that limit, and can be a problem for Celiac's. I have found that I can eat "purity protocol" gluten-free oats. I tried gluten-free HARVEST brand and have no problems...

    Real food, aka whole food. Chicken, fish, beef, pork, lots of fresh veggies, a little fruit, nuts (I use nuts.com). Look into Whole30 recipes. I got tons of ideas from books from my dinky little local library before everything was shut down. Now all that is available online from the library and various web sites.

    I had major issues with acid reflux even after going gluten free. Acid reflux is NOT USUALLY CAUSED BY TOO MUCH ACID, IT'S TOO LITTLE!!! As we age or have digestive issues from Celiac's the hiatal spincter can get damaged. Also as we age, or from Celiac's, our stomach acid gets REDUCED. Yes, REDUCED. All this adds to not digesting your food (and reduced...

    Stop taking the magnesium for at least 3 days until no symptoms. Don't make any other changes to your supplements or diet. Then re-introduce the magnesium at a very very small dose, gradually increase every few days. Continue increasing every few days. KEEP A LOG. See if your symptoms return.

    Please reread...I made it clear that it is different, but a peanut allergy is how sensitive it is, not immediate: " ...how just the littles bit, even something they can't see, it can kill them, and this is how careful you have to be, that a littlest bit, even something you can't see can give you a reaction that although it will not kill you right then...
  24. Beverage
    Also, I have found that for people that really do not understand how serious it is, as the naturopath who explained it to me, put it in terms more of how people react with peanut allergies...how just the littles bit, even something they can't see, it can kill them, and this is how careful you have to be, that a littlest bit, even something you can't see can...

    Oh gosh, that's horrible. It will be a lot of work, but you'll have to just scrub and clean everything in your kitchen and replace any wooden spoons, pans with non-stick, and toaster or other appliances. It is what you will just have to do, it will be fine, it is fixable. They do not have a clue how serious it is. You need to tell them kindly and...
