Ohh my went out to eat with hubbs and my son from out of town. They bought me candy!! That was sweet!! Really it was!! Anyhoo we went to Lone Star I had a Steak, Sweet potatoes, and Green beans. It was very good but about half way thru, in the rest room I go!! Then about 3/4 of the way , back I go!! Ugh ohh!! I was thinking here I went out to eat and I have to run to the rest room!! I was sure it was Gluten!! So afterwards I looked at the box of candy and sure enuf!! Corn!! Well lets just say I am soooo happy it was corn and not Gluten!! Whew!! I read the label before I ate some , you know before we went out to dinner! I even said! Yay!! No corn in it!! Well it had corn!! "WhitMans Cherry Cordials" My very fav!! But yup "corn syrup" Ughhh Darn it!!

Clean off the spectacles Girl :P  Start reading the label twice, once for gluten, once for corn.  And you know how I feel about restaurants, so I won't go there.  Get well quickly.  :)

I know!! Well Geeze I haven't seen my son in so long! And he was in town, it was getting late, hubbs was tiredhe gets up at 3:45 am. He needed to eat I needed to eat and the kids needed to eat. SO i picked Lone Star because they have a awesome new Chef that is sooo cool!! And the Corn doesn't linger and make me sick like Gluten does. It goes right thru me! But yea I am going to have to start reading better!! I knew it didn't have Gluten! I am not about to do that again!! Not even for Chocolate! It is amazing how 2 lil pieces of candy can effect me !! Just that lil bit of corn! Amazes me!! 

I did talk to a friend today that wend grain free! She is such an interesting person!! Amazing!!

OK I said it didn't effect me! Well I think I was wrong!! My joints have been aching I had a spot on my foot last night that was threatening a cramp all night!! Didn't cramp put kept me up threatening it! And a headache! I had a small headache all day! I didn't take anything for it because it wasn't bad and I am not sure what to take anymore! I am sure all this was due to the corn I ate! I have been doing so well! I used to wake up nightly from lag cramps! And I thought going Gluten free was helping that but still kinda getting them, since going Corn free I have not been getting them at all! Till last night! I think it was a lingering symptom.

Your getting there Wendy.  Read, Read, and Read labels.  I still get those threatening foot cramp things.  Doesn't go to a full cramp, THANKFULLY, but I freak out anyway :lol:

 

Be well.

      Accuracy of testing concerns

      The biopsy looks for damage to the mucosal lining of the small bowel from the inflammation caused by celiac disease when gluten is ingested. Once you remove gluten from the diet, inflammation subsides and the mucosal lining begins to heal.

      Doctors and Celiac.com

      Our support groups in Iowa have tried for years to educate doctors and resource sites like this one. We have held yearly conferences with continued education classes. We have brought in Dr. Murray, Dr. Fasano, Dr. Green and Dr. elliott. In those many years we may have had 2 doctors attend. We sent them information, with no response. I talked to...

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      You might also consider a low iodine diet as iodine is know to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. But be careful with that as well as there are health problems that can accrue from iodine deficiency.

      Our support groups in Iowa have tried for years to educate doctors and resource sites like this one.  We have held yearly conferences with continued education classes.   We have brought in Dr. Murray, Dr. Fasano, Dr. Green and Dr. elliott.  In those many years we may have had 2 doctors attend.  We sent them information, with no response.  I talked to my personal doctor and she said their training for Celiac was to show them a skinny man in boxer shorts and a huge stomach.  Saying if you see this, it is Celiac.  If it isn't in their playbook then they don't care.  Most call it an allergy with no mention of our immune system.  There is so much false information on the internet.  Then people don't understand why they can't get well and are acquiring more immune diseases. I mention this site to everyone.  Scott has working hard for the Celiac community.
