So, despite working so hard for the last 2 months to NOT contaminate myself, I went and ate the little pancake cooked droplets while I was talking on the phone with my mother in law. STUPID ME! I directly contaminated myself! THe amount was minute (only one tiny little piece) but still, so much for  a clean system! 

 

Now, I will see if there are any effects from it...

yup - did that myself - making kids leftover chinese food (with regular 'wheat' soy sauce in it) and licked my fingers - if i had any doubt that gluten messed me up, it disappeared quickly!!  *immediate* reaction - i wore gloves for a few weeks to teach myself not to lick my fingers...........  

 

last thanxgiving i licked the ladle to some cheese dip that everyone was dipping wheat crackers into - my daughter is hollering "MOM!  NO!"  as i was mid-lick lolz  :o

 

it happens - you'll get better at it  -_-

One more reason everybody gets gluten free pancakes when I'm cooking, picky husband and less-picky toddler.

I actually have a great gluten free flour mixture that I have used and the kids love it but we had company today so I didnt want to throw foreign food items her way! So far though, I feel ok and my skin has not broken out...thank goodness!

I have actually found that I like Gluten Free pancakes a lot more than normal icky wheat based mixtures. I just made some this morning with Bob's and Blackberries. Hoping not to have a reaction because I really like em!

Maybe you could wear a mask while cooking gluten cakes.  That would look really "cool".

Eh, my guests all get gluten free food when they are here.  Actually, though, people tend to look forward to it, because the food still always tastes good. :)

I was feeding my son some spaghetti and he knocked a noodle onto my arm. I went to eat it off, as my hands were busy, and it was my 8 year old daughter who yelled at me to stop.

 

I have to conscientiously think before I lick my fingers, grab a bite of anything...

 

I've been told in time it will become automatic and I won't have to think so hard about it. That is good news to my ADHD mind.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.
