Processed In The Same Facility As Wheat

as far as foods that are gluten free, but processed in a facility that processes gluten-----do any of you use these products? i would imagine that sometimes the products are contaminated and sometimes they are fine. i would also think that the type of product it is would make a difference in how easily it would or would not get cross contaminated. ( i would imagine a dry product could spread dust, where a wet product wouldn't) i think i have read that some people have had no problems with some products and some have had more problems. is this something that you just make a judgement call on---if you don't have a problem you assume it is ok?

I mostly try and stay away from products made in the same facility. Of course, there are some exceptions. It's kind of a 'try and see how it goes' kind of thing for me. Some things are fine and others aren't. There does not seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. After a while, you'll know which will work for you.

For me it is a food by food basis. Lately, I have been feeling really good and have become more hesitant about eating foods with those warning labels. I really do not want to be sick.

      Sorry, I think I got you mixed up with another poster.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.
