Yesterday my brother who is also celiac had a toblerone yesterday and says he got sick from it. I haven't had a problem with it before but i was wondering if any other sensitive celiacs have had a reaction to toblerone before?

The Toberlone site states that they do not use any gluten ingrediants:

Maybe he reacted to another ingredient?  Sometime we Celiacs tend to jump to being Glutened first.  May be he had food poisoning or a virus?  Just a thought.

I don't eat chocolate often, but I have never had a gluten reaction to Toblerone. I trust it to be gluten-free.

It's on the safe list here in the uk and I eat it without a problem.

theres also a really nice almondy toblerone cake available now.

 Although, gluten free...chocolate gives me reflux if I eat too much.  I can handle only a little.

Yes, my body has reacted to the toblerone chocolate in a negative way. I believe there is cross contamination of wheat which is why it's not labeled as gluten free.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Yes, i pulled raw ancetry data and saw i have 2/3 markers for DQ2.2 but have heard from friends in genetics that this raw data can be wildly innacurate
