I myself wouldn't know since I am lucky to grab a 5 minute shower before the kids are pounding at the door for something or other (any form of pampering in this household is strictly prohibited..... <_< ) but I did find this at delphi:

Bath and Body Works (800.395.1001) (00/00/00)

Many are gluten-free (but double check....some contain oats and someone was told all products are

gluten-free.... I wouldn't trust it on face value)

Sounds like only the ones with oats are questionable, and I guess that depends on what your take on oats are. Some believe they are safe, some do not.......

Rhiannon is 7, and I have twin boys who are 4. Don't even get me started on the bathroom breaks. Having chronic diarrhea and small children do not mix. Having to be in the bathroom 20 times a day, they are constantly knocking on the door, absolutely no comfort there (not that there's any comfort in having diarrhea, but still.......... :D ) Either that, or the boys will pick the times that I am in the bathroom to decide to fight over a particular toy or book or tv channel, whatever. Ah, the joys of motherhood :rolleyes:

It was nice of your hubby to get you a gift card for that. My hubby knows me all too well. He knows my first choice were I to get a gift card would be to have one from Home Depot (I am a real do-it-yourself fixer upper. I just finished fixing the toilet - needed a new flapper tank ball.)

Hugs.

Bath and Body works clearly labels oats in the ingredients, and they are not in every product.

I've found that most if not all of the regular lotions contain oats, but the thicker body creams seem to be ok.

Can anyone back that up?

I remember being in there at Christmas time and getting very depressed :( All of my favorites have oats in them. I found a foot cream that did not have oats. Needless to say I left without a bag. If you have found some that are oat free please post. I would love to go and get a bag!

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      By trents · Posted

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.
