Swelling of the throat sounds more like an allergic reaction (IgE), rather than a reaction related to celiac disease. You may try antihistamines, and consider getting food allergy testing done to identify the culprit. -

I recently discovered The Good Crisp Company. They make what is essentially a Pringles chip but gluten free. Really good. Lots of flavors. They also make other snacks that are gluten free. Tasty and safe!- celiac disease

I am 70 years old but very active. Yes, that is the GI Reset and didn't see any issue from using it the first two weeks. I realized the Aleve may not be gluten free and I have reacted to those pills. I am taking AlgaeCal - Natural Algae Calcium Supplements To Increase Bone Density. It is the swelling of the throat and blisters on the back of the tongue which worries me. I have not seen anyone report these symptoms. Thank you Blake

Hello, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis about 3 years ago. At that time I quit gluten and it really helped my symptoms. I hadn't known that I should've tested for celiac before doing so. Up till recently, gluten would cause my symptoms to flare up, although I never noticed anything with cross contamination, so I wasn't strict about that. But recently, I noticed I could get away with more gluten, and so I decided to do a gluten challenge to see if I had celiac and if I had to be strict. Note that my thyroid antibodies had been decreasing steadily up to this point. My anti-TPO had reached 50 IU/ml from 250 IU/ml (reference range 0-5.6) when I had first been diagnosed. After just a week of the gluten challenge, I measured my thyroid antibodies and they were at 799 IU/ml! I felt fine, but a few days after I started to feel the symptoms. Extreme brain fog, insomnia, diarheaa, fatigue, sleepiness yet cannot sleep, stomachache after eating gluten, nausea, swollen throat (probably due to my thyroid), burping, and gas. I cannot function properly. I'm also worried that I'm killing my thyroid. Should I just quit the challenge? It's been almost two weeks, but the first week I wasn't tracking well, so that's why I didn't want to count it. I can't eat gluten anyway because of my thyroid, but I wanted the diagnosis to know if I should be strict about cross contamination or not.

You really saved me as I was on day 4 of 3 g per day for 6 weeks. Thank you very much!

Two weeks is the minimum according to the guideline. I would go for four weeks if you can endure it, just to make sure.
