Does anyone have gluten-sensitive enteropathy? I have just found out today that I have been poisoning my body with this generic drug for Singulair ever since I was diagnosed with celiac in Oct. (8 mos. ago). I trusted my pharmacist because I could not find anywhere on line that listed whether or not it was gluten free. : (

Singulair is listed as gluten free on www.glutenfreedrugs.com.  What is the name of your generic version?

 

If the generic version is not safe, inform your phamacist that you have intolerant issues to the generic. If the ingredients are not safe for you, he/she can contact your doctor and re- prescribe a version that will be safe.

 

My CVS phamacists are great to check on any meds I may take. They are on the phone often on my behalf, checking my prescriptions. Actually, they have flagged my account and when I pick up something they tell me that it is gluten free (although I already knew that).  And as always, I am beyond gratefull and appreciative.  As busy as they are, they are good!

 

Oh....any excuse my manners.  WELCOME!

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.
