Pirate's Booty

I had my first post-diagnosis reaction to gluten and I am trying to figure out what it was. The only new thing I have eaten was Pirate's Booty Aged White Cheddar. The ingredients looked gluten free and I found a website that said it was gluten free but my reaction says otherwise.

Has anyone else had a problem with this product?

I haven't had any issues with any of their gluten-free products that I have tried. I have been known to eat a whole bag of the cheese ones in one sitting :ph34r:

One thing you have to consider is that for some of us the reaction to gluten is a delayed reaction. Look at what you have eaten for up to 3 days before in addition to what you are that day. A food diary can be helpful for some in pinpointing what caused the problem.

Another possibility is that you may have an issue with dairy.

Thanks - I'm thinking about all I ate 2 and 3 days ago that may be the issue. I was at a BBQ but there were other celiacs there and they are ok. Maybe I ate something contaminated.

I'm getting over my lactose intolerance now that I'm gluten free and I have eaten cheese so not sure that is the issue. Good to have it confirmed that others are not having issues so I'm sure it was something else.

Do you notice if you have a problem with corn?

I can't tolerate yellow corn but am okay wtih white corn. I believe majority of popcorn (that you buy in bags) is yellow.

I stopped buying popcorn already made up and just buy the white kernnels and make my own at home on the stove.

Good Luck with everything

I can't say for sure of course but you could be right about the BBQ, you could easily have been CC'd there. If you really liked the Booty you could wait until you are feeling better and then give it another try and see if the same thing happens.

My little girl is pretty sensitive and she has never been cc'd by Pirates Booty, so I trust the brand.

Hi NC, I also ate Pirates Booty and had a very bad reaction (twice). My theory is that they're using cheese from a preshredded source, & that the cheese is tainted by being dusted with a modified food starch that contains gluten. In my experience, I'm not willing to have another episode so if it doesn't say "certified gluten free" it's off limits for me. Good luck!

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?

      Have this rash forming on the back of my legs. Looking for relief outside of going to the doctor.

      By Kirbyqueen · Posted

      Still dealing with this rash on my legs. I've eliminated ringworm (through use of topical ointments). And I also know it's not shingles, as I've never had chickenpox before and I'm still fairly young. Through a lot of online research, I'm leaning more towards dermatitis herpetiformis, eczema, or psoriasis. I've actually got a doctor's appointment in May (finally got some insurance) and I'm going to bring it up then. I'm feeling really hopeful and excited to maybe be getting some relief soon.   Big thanks to everyone for the suggestions and positive thoughts!

      Trying to read my lab results

      By trents · Posted

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.
