    Surmounting Social Situations Encountered by those with Celiac Disease and/or Food Allergies
    Celiac.com 07/13/2018 - I went to a friend’s home for dinner.  A few days before, she called and asked me what I could eat.  I asked her what she was planning to make, and she said she was grilling meats with side dishes.  I said, “Great.  Please just grill a piece of chicken for me with salt and pepper, and I’ll be happy to bring a side.” She said, “No need to bring a side.  I’ve got this.” When I arrived, she greeted me and said, “I spent all day cooking tonight’s dinner so you can eat it. Hey would you just check this salad dressing to see if it is OK for you?” I looked at the ingredients and it contained gluten and dairy, both of which I cannot eat.  Then I glanced around the kitchen and saw evidence of wheat cross-contamination, including buns being toasted on the grill, and gluten-c...

    Surmounting Social Situations: Sabotage and Scrutiny Surrounding the Gluten-Free Diet
    Celiac.com 10/17/2018 - In the interviews I conducted last year, the Celiac.com viewers shared with me some disturbing stories about how others either sabotaged their gluten-free diet or how their gluten-free requirements are continually scrutinized and doubted. Here are a few examples:
    A co-worker at my office ate a gluten-containing burrito and thought it would be funny to cross-contaminate my work space.  With his gluten-coated hands, he touched my phone, desk, pencils, pens, etc. while I was not at my desk.  I came back and was contaminated.  I had to take several days off of work from being so sick. The waiter at a restaurant where I was eating dinner asked me if I was really “a celiac” or if I was avoiding gluten as a “fad dieter.” He told me the food was gluten-fre...

    Surmounting Social Situations: A Gluten Free Home?
    Celiac.com 02/01/2019 - When I was first diagnosed, I couldn’t believe the “rhetoric” about how sensitive a person with celiac disease is. It just didn’t resonate. I remember being told at a support group by a woman I deemed at the time to be histrionic, that a plastic strainer previously used to drain gluten-containing pasta could cross contaminate me, and that microscopic crumbs on the counter could be deadly. It just seemed to me at the time that she was “over reacting.” I thought: “Nobody could be that sensitive!” Back then I continued to bake gluten-containing goods for my husband. (That was torture by the way, to make my favorite brownies for him and not eat any of the batter.)
    I made him gluten-containing bread in my bread machine. I continued to have the terrible rashes. Noticin...

    Surmounting Social Situations: The Temptation to Diagnose and 'Othering'
    Celiac.com 07/12/2019 - "I think you might be reacting to gluten." How many times do you want to say that to loved ones who are suffering with familiar symptoms? Many of the people I interviewed in my "Social Aspects of Celiac Disease Survey" on Celiac.com shared that they observe signs of celiac disease or gluten sensitivity in family members, but are met with a wide range of (often negative) responses when suggesting symptoms may be gluten-related. Those of us who live with the disease, and who are well informed about the many manifestations of gluten intolerance "just know" that other family members may be reacting to gluten. We hear our family complain of indications ranging from joint pain, migraines, swelling, brain-fog, gas, bloating, back pain, leg numbness, and gastro-intestinal ...

      CT with contrast.

      I didn’t know there were different types of CT. I’m not sure which I had. It just said CT scan with contrast.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      I had the same thing happen to me at around your age, and to this day it's the most painful experience I've ever had. For me it was the right side of my head, above my ear, running from my nerves in my neck. For years before my outbreak I felt a tingling sensation shooting along the exact nerves that ended up exactly where the shingles blisters appeared....

      Gluten free nuts

      Thanks for the info. I recently moved to CA from Wyoming and in that western region the Costco and Sam's /Walmart Brands have many nuts and more products that are labeled gluten free. I was told it's because those products are packaged and processed in different plants. Some plants can be labeled gluten free because the plant does not also package gluten...
