so how about this story:

a few weeks ago it was my bday and i threw a party at a bar. Well, my fav drink is ketel one on the rocks- and it never makes me sick so thats continued on my gluten-free diet. so i order one at my bday party, take a sip and it tastes AWFUL. But i had seen him pour it so i knew it was ketel one. Stupidly, i drank it anyway (mostly b/c it took forever to get a drink in the first place). so i then move on to another vodka and think nothing of it. The next morning, i have a massive hangover (i drank a LOT) and then all of the sudden, i get that kind of sick that is not a hangover...and realize ive been glutened! i cant figure out what it could be- gum? the restaurant i ate at (cross contamination?) none seemed likely so i just chalked it up to an unidentifiable mistake...until yesterday.

My roommate calls me yesterday to tell me about an article in the Post called "Botched Booze"-- all about how ketel one has recalled some of its bottles b/c there was a problem- namely, that there was an "unusually high wheat content" causing some of the wheat to remain in the product and giving the vodka a strange wheaty flavor! since then, 3 of my friends have called to tell me about the article b/c if there are two things they associate me with, they are gluten and vodka! (should i be proud of that). Sure was funny though, not only have i figured out why it tasted so bad, but also why i got sick-- mystery solved!

Yikes- that's awful! I love vodka too (I was once known as the Cosmo queen) but my cosmo days are on hold right now. Oh great sadness....

      Have you tried a diet with a lower carb, higher fat content, something similar to the Keto diet? Are you familiar with the ketogenic diet? Fat satisfies and so curbs hunger and levels out blood sugar.

      I've was diagnosed celiac over 10 years ago when in mid 50s. For a long time I have been getting headaches at night and in the morning and I suffer a lot of insomnia. The headaches can be very severe and sometimes develop into a full migraine but other times they wear off within an hour of getting up and eating breakfast. I have self diagnosed this a hypoglycaemia...

      False reading as of right now

      But that's the point Scott is trying to make. It is up to you. You do not have to go forward with another biopsy simply because your doctor wants you to. They work for you, not the other way around.

      gluten-free supplements in Canada

      Hi Kate, I am unsure if this is helpful or not. I have Webber calcium citrate everyday. I also react to less than 20 ppm of gluten. I have not reacted to Webber ever. (Fingers crossed it stays that way). Also, I get my blood tested every 6 months to ensure I have zero gluten exposure. It consistently comes back negative(0) to gluten. A few...

      False reading as of right now

      Honestly that's a good question, but I would like an official answer since I'm not a professional and my doctor's in my opinion no offense to them I'd say gone about it in a unprofessional way unless other's have been told to go gluten free, get a biopsy, just to go back gluten due to a possible false reading and then gotta go back for another biopsy But...

      I've was diagnosed celiac over 10 years ago when in mid 50s.  For a long time I have been getting headaches at night and in the morning and I suffer a lot of insomnia.  The headaches can be very severe and sometimes develop into a full migraine but other times they wear off within an hour of getting up and eating breakfast.  I have self diagnosed this a hypoglycaemia.  The medical profession in UK, where I live, does not seem to know anything of this and simply tests me for diabetes, which I do not have.  I know this condition is diet related and caused by carbohydrates, I avoid eating in the evenings.  Whatever I do, this condition seems to be getting worse and is very difficult to control.  Any advice would be much appreciated.
