First of all, Celiac Disease is not an allergy! I have seen and heard it described in that way, even in the media. It is an autoimmune disease that produces a variety of antibodies, including gliadin, endomysial, reticulin and tissue transglutaminase ones. A deficiency of IgA can make a normally positive test look negative.

There's no such thing as a "mild" food allergy! Why? Because after repeated exposure to the allergen, it can become a more severe allergy. There's no way to predict when or if that will happen. It was my allergist who, when I asked him to test for celiac, did so without even blinking. He's awesome.

White rice is on the high glycemic list. Whole grains like wheat are not. Quinoa and brown rice would make for a better gluten free trial. But getting tested while on gluten is the best thing to do so you know for sure if you have celiac disease or not.

RA is an autoimmune disease. So is polymyositis. Does she have those test results of the EMG?! RA does NOT cause a positive EMG.

If I were you, I would find a GOOD allergist, hopefully one in private practice and not at an HMO, and get retested. They usually do skin prick tests, intradermal (injection) tests and/or RAST tests (blood tests).

To me, it sounds like you have not had good doctoring. What really helps when you go to a specialist is to only mention ONE condition. Not necessarily one symptom. Often if you mention more than one thing, they automatically lump you into the "trash can" diagnosis' or as a hypochondriac.

I hope you will get retested for celiac.
