Gluten sensitivity

Is there a test for non celiac gluten sensitivity? Also, is a gluten sensitivity considered TMS?

 

I honestly think it is. We can have reactions to foods etc. solely based on our fear and thoughts about those foods. In this case it's a "trigger"...a psychological conditioned response. My dad is a retired allergist and I have many allergies myself but there's so much trending in social media and media in general that a lot of these terms become trendy and "socially contagious". If you don't test positive for celiac disease, I would not make a huge deal out of it. You can eliminate it from your diet since most of it is processed crap anyway, but I would not go through life terrified of gluten either.

 

Thank you for your thoughts miffybunny. I do agree with everything you said. I did test negative for celiac, but I still notice I have symptoms if I make unhealthy eating choices, usually involving gluten. Which is why I requested to be tested to rule it out. Now to work on breaking that conditioned response...

 

Thanks Jan. This further confirms what I am starting to believe is just TMS. It is amazing how powerful and tricky our minds can be at deceiving us.
