Mcdonalds Frappe Reaction

My son drank a caramel frappe and pretty much straight away got pretty sick. I think it was probably a reaction; he doesn't want to believe it.

 

I think these are supposed to be gluten free, according to ingredients. Anyone know anything about whether they are prone to cross contamination? Are they made on the same machine as the flurries?

 

He's also allergic to nuts and fish, but that usually causes hives/swelling. He doesn't have problems with dairy foods (or large amounts of junk food, come to that).

Have you double checked the ingrediants?  There is always a chance of CC when eating/drinking out.  Hope he feels better soon.

I just avoid McDonald's all together.

 

I've had reactions to things there that are supposed to be gluten free.

I have not eaten McDonalds, Burger King or any of those joints in 8 years, this also includes pre diagnosis years.post diagnosis I avoid eating out if at all possible. We have a place by our house we go to and have found a server who takes us when we come in, after hearing about my condition, and each time we have gone,(it's not been a whole lot) no incidents. But as for the frappes ditch them., I used to get drinks similar at a local coffeehouse. Upon ditching them made with other types of milk,almond,coconut etc I'd still get ill feeling. I think it may have honestly been an issue the cc in that place because the staff didn't seem to get gluten sensitivity/intolerance/celiacs.

      Lymphocytic Colitis with Celiac

      By Katerific · Posted

      I was diagnosed with microscopic colitis and celiac a couple of years ago.  The GI doctor prescribed a course of budesonide, which moderately helped until I tapered off.    After a lot of ups and downs over the course of 2 years, I am finally in microscopic colitis remission.  Since I am also diabetic, I was started on metformin and Jardiance.  Metformin by itself helped moderately.  I added Jardiance and I was much better.  I stopped the metformin and relapsed and when I added it back, I regained remission.  I think metformin and Jardiance helped my colitis because they reduce inflammation in the gut.  Metformin is known to favorably modulate the gut microbiome and reduce inflammatory cytokines.  Similarly, emerging evidence supports the anti-inflammatory properties of SGLT2 inhibitors like Jardiance.  Once I was on both, the diarrhea stopped completely, even though nothing else ever worked long-term.  There is a Facebook group that can be very informative and helpful.  Look for "Microscopic Colitis and Lymphocytic Colitis Support Group.  You will find that members of the Facebook group identify other pathways to remission of microscopic colitis.

      Cartilage and rib pain.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @Mrs Wolfe, I crushed three vertebrae moving a chest of drawers.  I take a combination of Thiamine Vitamin B1, Vitamin B12, and Pyridoxine B6.  Together these vitamins have an analgesic effect.  I think it works better than OTC pain relievers.   I also like  "Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan 120 Tablets" .   It's all three vitamins together in one pill.  Works wonderfully!

      Progesterone pills - are they gluten free??

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      It's the Potassium Iodide in the HRT pills that is triggering Dermatitis Herpetiformis and the increased IGG levels.   The thyroid is stimulated by the Potassium Iodide, which stimulates immune cells to make more IGG antibodies.   Thiamine Vitamin B1 helps the thyroid function.  I like Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamax.
