I Need A Gluten Free Hug!

Recommended Posts

Somehow, somewhere, I cc'd myself or something this past weekend.

My home is gluten free, my kids are gluten free, even my dog is gluten free. I bought myself a mini BBQ so I can enjoy hanging out with friends and family, which I used, and loved. I nearly- neurotically prepared everything from scratch for our outings this weekend, in my gluten-free kitchen, brought my own utensils everywhere, you name it, I think I covered it!

Obviously I missed something, and I know these things are bound to happen, but the sense of defeat after all the extra effort feels pretty epic tonight! I don't love whining, but getting glutened sucks!

-rant complete- ;)

I need a gluten-free hug for a different reason but I totally sympathize with yours.  (((((HUGS)))))

(((((((HUG))))))))  poor baby!  everything's gonna be ok..

 

my first camping trip i agonized and sterilized and brought everything but the kitchen sink!  still got glutened.

 

my first trip to my old home town in nj - we agonized and sterilized and on the last day, my husband says 'why are you rubbing your head?  do you have a headache?  - yup, got glutened - i even figured it out that i did it to myself (chose the wrong pan to broil shrimp - one of those ceramic coated broiler pans at my bff's house.  rookie mistake!!)  good thing we were going home the next day.  i popped half a xanax and mercifully slept for the 12 hour ride.  

 

feel better - you are not alone!  ((((((extra hugs))))))

      @N00dnutt, been there, done that! Cheers!

      @trents You're right, thanks for pointing that out. On @somethinglikeolivia comment regarding potential ingesting or cross contamination; there is a product marketed in Australia as "GluteGuard" which is designed for just this scenario. It is not a defence for and is not recommended for use by full-blown celiac disease but, it helps those with GI. I'll be reading slower in future so I don't skim over the subject matter. Cheers.

      @Knitty_Kitty Noted with appreciation.

      @N00dnutt, as OP explained earlier, she had a gastroscopy done earlier while she had been eating plenty of gluten for months. It was negative despite strong positive antibody scores.
    • N00dnutt
      The best way to determine positively is to undergo a Gastroscope. Your Endocrinologist will assess the condition of your "Villi". These tenticles are what extract the nutrient from what we ingest. The Protein in Gluten is like acid to these tenticles.
