I just received my Enteorlab results. I thought I was going to be dairy sensitive and not gluten sensitive. the only Norman I've had was the next morning after a day of peanut butter sandwiches. I guess I'll get down to it now and try to get completely DF/GF...sigh.

A) Gluten Sensitivity Stool and Gene Panel Complete *Best test/best value
Fecal Anti-gliadin IgA 15 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units)

Fecal Anti-tissue Transglutaminase IgA 10 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units)

Quantitative Microscopic Fecal Fat Score Less than 300 Units (Normal Range is less than 300 Units)

Fecal Anti-casein (cow’s milk) IgA 6 Units (Normal Range is less than 10 Units)

HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 1 0201

Why go dairy free if you tested negative for it?

As long as she is still experiencing enteritis, she will be lactose intolerant, due to inadequate production of lactase enzyme, (which will resume once the inflammation is resolved). After she heals, she can experiment with dairy products, to see if her casein test result is correct, or a false negative result. Also, when someone is trying to achieve remission, why tempt fate, by eating something questionable - that can only prolong the agony. It's much safer to cut it out now, and add it back in, later, when remission is stable.

Foxnhound,

It's rather uncommon for a member here to test negative to gluten-sensitivity, but the odds of testing negative to casein-sensitivity are somewhat better, (though still not good). The fact that you have the most common celiac gene, virtually guarantees that once MC develops, you will be gluten-sensitive.

Do you mind if I post your results in our database at:

No Tex, I don't mind at all if you post. Thanks for clarifying the Enterolab results. I wondered about the dairy thing. Gosh, no fruits or veggies, no pasta or bread and no dairy...I'll start tomorrow...I went out with friends to my favorite Italian place tonight. First time in months I've gone out to a nice restaurant. Turns out, they had gluten free pasta and it was very good. I fell down on the cream sauce though. Guess we'll see what tomorrow brings.

No one is saying no fruits and veggies. You should be able to tolerate a variety of cooked vegetables, sweet potatoes, bananas, peeled apples or applesauce, etc.

Foxnhound,

I agree with zizzle, most of us can tolerate some vegetables and some of us can tolerate certain types of fruit. Except for bananas, though, everything else needs to be well cooked, (overcooked), and the peel should always be removed, because most of the fiber is in the peel, and fiber must be kept to a minimum until our intestines have time to heal.

Except for lettuce - nearly all of us find that lettuce really irritates our digestive system, until it has mostly healed. It is by far the most irritating vegetable, for most of us.

Thanks - I've added your test results to our database.
