Found a LABELED PAIN RELIEVER

I don't know if the rest of you struggle as bad as I do when it comes to finding a pain reliever that's actually LABELED or guaranteed to be gluten free like I do, but... It hasn't been easy.

Basically, every time I look online at a specific drug, it always says that it's not guaranteed or it USED TO BE or it CAN BE if bought at Walgreens but not if bought at Walmart BLAH BLAH BLAH.

So my wife just happened upon this one and saw an actual gluten free label on it. Needless to say she bought it immediately. Never heard of this brand before but it is a naproxin based NSAID made by TopCare and sold by Coborn's grocery store. Likely an in-store brand. TopCo parent company.

I use that brand myself. I find it at my local Wegmans. It is so nice to find OTC meds that are clearly labeled.  I thought it was an in store brand also but it seems to be available in different markets

It is highly unlikely any medication will actually have gluten.  But I still like to read the ingredients.  And having it labelled gluten-free makes it sooooo much easier than trying to read the small print.  Target labels something of thier meds gluten-free.

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I forgot to mention that exercise also triggers it, except for the period right before I tried the gluten challenge where I could do moderately intense workouts without getting this burning sensation and extreme fatigue for days afterwards,

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am 30 years old, female, and have Hashimoto's thyroiditis and suspected celiac disease (wasn't able to complete a gluten challenge, but have the symptoms and HLA-DQ8) or at least some kind of gluten sensitivity. When I first got diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, I went on AIP and never reintroduced gluten. Whenever I would eat a little bit of gluten I would wake up feeling very old, achy, and unrested, with a burning sensation everywhere especially on my hip bones and chest area. It felt like severe inflammation. This would also happen during stressful times and times where I hadn't been sleeping well.  This symptom had decreased in intensity and completely gone away before I tried to do a gluten challenge over a month ago. Now it is back and I have it every day when I wake up. It usually goes away or decreases in intensity after a few hours of being awake. Is this inflammation or something else, and is it related to Hashimoto's thyroiditis or celiac (or gluten sensitivity) or both? Could it be related to not moving for long periods of time (as is the case when I am sleeping)? I was also extremely sensitive to all foods when I first started AIP about 3 or 4 years ago, but with time, I could tolerate more foods and even gluten in small amounts occasionally. Now my stomach is super sensitive, I am afraid to eat again, and my stools are abnormal. Thank you.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @MagsM Did your doctor do the DGP IgG and DGP IgA tests or the tTg IgG test.  It looks like he just tested total IgG.   Were you taking any medications or over the counter stuff before the test?  Some can suppress the immune system and cause false negatives.
