Vodka and other liquors

Hello everyone,

Recently diagnosed and wondering if liquors made from wheat (vodka, gin, etc.) bother you all. I don't have symptoms so no idea whether they are safe or not. I have been avoiding alcohol since my diagnosis. I also have a jar of vodka sauce labelled "gluten free" that I am hesitant to eat since the vodka was most likely wheat-based.

Thank you!

I pretty much do not drink as I have autoimmune gastritis now. ?.  However, distilled alcohol is gluten free, while brewed (beer) is not.  As Rose stated, cross contamination could always occur especially if flavors are added.  I used to stick with potato vodka.  Sometimes piece of mind can be priceless.  I also like REAL gluten free beers and not “gluten removed”. beers.  

If that sauce is the Classico brand, for sure it is safe.  It is even marked gluten free on the jar.  

Consider subscribing to the Gluten Free WatchDog”.  Trisha is a dietitian and a celiac who is highly regarded in celiac circles. For a few dollars a month, you can keep on top of processed gluten-free foods and current food labeling issues.  She is the Consumer Reports for the gluten free community.

      I'm pretty sure that in stores, you can find plenty of gluten-free options. But they are usually a bit more expensive.

      Hello @BunnyBrown and welcome to the forum. I cannot say that I have had the procedure you describe, but recently I did have general surgery and was routinely intubated.  That pain was what troubled me most after the operation, far more than the operation site.  It took a few days to really settle down, I was quite badly bruised. It was taking so long I was a bit concerned so asked the question on another forum. A few patients came back to me and said they had suffered the same.  I imagine in my own case possibly the throat got bashed about a bit,  maybe they had difficult inserting the tube?  I've suffered with a painful throat post-endoscopy too, but never as long as the intubation pain.   I hope you will be feeling better very soon.   PS BTW - love the name!  I saw this today in an Easter display in a shop and your name reminded me of it.🙂

      This wonderful, Anne. I think you have a point about why people disappear off forums.  I found the first few years post diagnosis a real struggle and frankly wondered if I would ever feel better (not to dishearten people, but just to say it can take a while longer for some folk to heal).  However, once my antibodies were back within normal range it really has made a big difference to my health.  I've chosen to stick around because I'm a Mod, otherwise I might have been one of those that disappeared, too!
