Cheese Problem But Cream Soup Not? Why?

I dropped dairy awhile ago because I found that even lactose-free dairy was bothering me. (stomach pain and C) About a month and a half ago, I had risotto at a restaurant. I was fine. Then couple weeks later tried 1/4 cup cheddar cheese with a meal one night. Didn't work. :( Couple weeks after that, I tried a cream soup at a fancy restaurant. Only ate about half of it, but I was fine. Oh, when I tried the cheese at home, I was eating all my usual safe foods all week, so it wouldn't have been something else that caused problems.

Why would a creamy sauce/soup be OK but not cheddar cheese? Do others have this same experience? I'm going to Maggiano's in a couple of days, and I'm already thinking about what I want to order! (I don't eat out very often.)

There are some people who can tolerate dairy if it's been heated. Many times when people have IgE allergies and go to the Dr. for a food trial they will start with baked in dairy (a cake for example) and move to "heated" dairy (like on pizza or the like) before moving to straight "on your cereal" dairy.

You could react less to things that have been heated.

Dairy is strange with me.

Butter, Cream in many items I cook/bake = no reaction

Cheese / Milk = can feel a bit bloated

Yogurt = no way

Aged cheese and yogurt have a lot of natural amines. Cream, butter, or very fresh milk don't.

That's interesting! I looked up high amines foods. I can eat dark chocolate, pecans, bananas, and mushroom, which were all listed as high or very high. So I don't think that's what I'm reacting to. But thanks for the suggestion.

The suggestions about baking are interesting. I don't bake anything for myself because I can't tolerate so many grains. I'd have to bake with white rice flour and corn meal! LOL!

Anyway, if my eating out doesn't get to me, I'll try cooking something with a touch of butter and see what happens. Would love to eventually be able to eat something with heated cheese. (The cheese I ate that bothered me was cold cheese on top of a baked potato.) I miss dairy SO much! We'll see. I'm almost to my one-year anniversary, and I know it may take another year for my stomach to heal.

      No! Do not start the gluten free diet until you know whether or not you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to verify the blood antibody test results. Starting gluten free eating ahead of either form of diagnostic testing can invalidate the results. You don't want to allow the villous lining of the small bowel to experience healing ahead of testing by removing gluten.

      We offer a ton of recipes here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/ and have done some articles on fast food places, but keep in mind that eating out is a common source of gluten contamination: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=fast food&quick=1&type=cms_records2 Many colleges now offer allergen-friendly, and sometimes gluten-free options in their student cafeterias: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=colleges&type=cms_records2&quick=1&search_and_or=and&sortby=relevancy PS - Look into GliadinX, which is a sponsor here, but many studies have been done on it which show that it may break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines.

      Thank you! What do you recommend in the next 7 weeks until I see my Doctor?  Just start my Gluten free diet?

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:
