Good Morning All-
I have had increasingly bad arthritis issues since going gluten-free. Just this week I realized that during this time I stopped taking Ibuprofen (been using for joint/misc pain for years). I started taking Ibuprofen again and my joints have begun to improve.
I had always taken generic advil tablets, but this winter I purchased Kirkland (costco) gelcaps....it seems that I am having a reaction to the gel caps, but not the tablets...checked the ingredients for the gel caps and can't find a problem.
I have stopped taking the gelcaps, but was curious if anyone else has had a reaction to the gelcap?
Can't prove it, but I suspect that my first ever celiac rash this past winter was either started or worsened by the gelcaps.
