- knitty kitty replied to Dora77's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease7Ocd making gluten fears unmanageable. Need advice
@Dora77, You shouldn't worry about getting glutened through your skin. You would have to touch a gluten infested doorknob and then put your hand in your mouth. I'd be more concerned with your mom's heating up gluten bread in the oven and boiling gluten noodles. These methods cause particles of gluten to become airborne which would then enter...- asymtomatic

I do not have evidence other than anecdotal but I am certain when I have gotten these it's the result of eating gluten (back when I did). I don't get them now that I don't eat gluten. -

What really bothers me is if worrying about getting cc‘d from touching the same door knob as others touched is valid. Seems like an extremely unlikely way to get glutened but i read people saying that. If thats true then theres realistically zero chance i dont get cc‘d in a non gluten-free household unless i Cook Everything myself and wash my han...- asymtomatic

Welcome to the forum, @Mrs. Cedrone! Among the various causes for canker sores, are "Nutritional problems like too little vitamin B12, zinc, folic acid, or iron" https://www.webmd.com/oral-health/canker-sores Could you be deficient on something? -

I have been a diagnosed Celiac for over 30 years. If I even get any type of cross contamination I end up in the hospital. Recently I have been getting "cankers". I am assuming that this is a result from something I am eating. any insight would be greatly appreciated. I follow an extremely strike diet as result and this is something new that has popped...

@Dora77, You shouldn't worry about getting glutened through your skin. You would have to touch a gluten infested doorknob and then put your hand in your mouth. I'd be more concerned with your mom's heating up gluten bread in the oven and boiling gluten noodles. These methods cause particles of gluten to become airborne which would then enter your nose and be swallowed, going into your digestive tract. I have to avoid the bakery aisle at the grocery store for this reason. An M95 mask helps. If you get nutritional deficiencies corrected, your immune system will calm down and be less reactive to gluten expose. Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system. Thiamine and Niacin help make digestive enzymes which would help digest any accidental gluten exposure. Thiamine helps Mast cells not to release histamine, an inflammatory agent released as part of the reaction to gluten, and also a neurotransmitter that causes alertness and anxiety, and the flight or fight response. Pyridoxine will help improve the OCD. Remember your brain is part of the body. Vitamin deficiencies affect your brain and mental health as well as the rest of your body. -

I am assuming that this is a result from something I am eating. any insight would be greatly appreciated. I follow an extremely strike diet as result and this is something new that has popped up. I still get very ache sometimes and fatigued. Thank you.
