<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> It worked. After 6 six weeks of agony, doctors looking at me like I'm nuts, I went on a rampage with 500 bid cipro and 250 qid flagyl for 10 days. Gee... potatoes don't come out as potatoes anymore, I can eat cheese. The mucous stopped. Bacterial overgorwth is what I suspected and I belive I was right. IBS.... yeah right.... should be more like IDS (Irritable Doctor Syndrome). My next step is a one month course of Nystastin (I know sugar screws me up) and rampage with probiotics and L-glutamine. My labs again show high ttg for the third time on a GF diet. Everything else is negative. Even my biopsys have been seen by three specialized doctors and 7 (count - 7) pathologists, 4 which specialize in CD and EVERYONE says there is NO EVIDENCE WHAT SO EVER of CD, but they are ALL are stumped but the continous high TTG count (220 last count). Now that I have gotten rid of satan from my small instestine, I will once again do the blood test for TTG. It will be interesting to see if bacterial overgrowth was the leading factor in a high transglutaminase result. DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME> I DID THIS AT MY OWN RISK. Taking antibiotics runs the risk of developing C.Dificile and other opportunistic goodies, so beware. Greg Eric nogluten@home
