Rice Dream Mistake :(

I have been doing so good, but last night I was starving, and on my way to a meeting I stopped and got some envirkids rice bars and a packet of juice size boxes with what I thought was soy milk. I realized it was rice dream, with .02% barley while I was drinking it. I hoped that .02% wasn't enough and finished it ebcause I was starving. An hour later I had a splitting headache and body pain. My tummy was grumbling like mad, but I didn't have D or C. I still have the headache and stiff body, and I suspect I will till next week.

I just wanted to vent - I get so mad at myself when I mess up. It is just such a set back over the tiniest about of gluten. I know, I know, every bit hurts, but it is just so hard to be so vigilent. Now my Sunday School class wants to go out to eat to where else but Sclotzsky's. I am thinking I will not eat out at all anymore. I'll go with, but no more of it. It is just never safe.

Julie - I'm a newer celiac and I also got sick after drinking rice dream. I didn't know it wasn't gluten free and about 2 days after drinking it regularly I got diarrhea. This was my first reaction since doing pretty well for 4 months. It took me about 7 days to get totally back to normal. What a pain in the &*(*&^....

Umm why would there be .02% of malt in it? What could that possibly do to the drink (besides make it unsafe for us? )

Apparently is in the process of making it - they have it on their packaging.

I don't know the specifics, but I believe they use barley in the filtering of the rice/water mixture, possibly for the subtle flavor changes it gives the liquid.

      Gluten-Free Newbie

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      if you have already learned that Gluten is the cause of your symptoms, of course there is no need to add it back into your diet— your decision could save you a lot of needless suffering. One thing to consider is that if you do have celiac disease, your first- degree relatives may also need to get screened for it, because, like diabetes the disease is genetic, although many of its triggers seem to be environmental factors. You may want to consider getting a genetic test for celiac disease, so you can at least warn your relatives if it turns out that you do carry a celiac gene.

      TTG IgA 0.30 U/ml: further tests?

      By lookingforanswersone · Posted

      Thanks everyone. I've decided to do a gluten challenge (4 slices of bread a day for 3 months) and then do a full gluten panel of all the tests that can be done, just to rule it in or out for sure. I think otherwise psychologically it will keep bothering me

      Thanks Scott. Those articles are really interesting. I’m cutting out gluten for 6 weeks but honestly I’m not sure I even want to reintroduce it! I ate at a restaurant for the first time on Wednesday and then Thursday was really uncomfortable and had a few trips to the loo.. wonder if there was some cross contamination 🤷‍♀️ if that’s how my body reacts after not eating it for 3 weeks I’m not sure it’s worth reintroducing it and re testing for celiac! It might have been a coincidence I realise that I’m not going to feel better all of a sudden and my gut is probably still trying to heal. Thanks for your supportive message!

      Reference range 0.00 to 10.00 means that within that range is normal, so not celiac. There are other antibodies that can be present in celiac disease and they don’t all have to be positive to have celiac.  I’m sure someone else will post a link to an article describing them! Plus, if you are IgA deficient the celiac IgA tests won’t be accurate.

      Gluten Intolerance And Low White Blood Cell Counts?

      Great to have another UK person on the forum!   Re: blood tests, it sounds as if you are being well monitored but if you have any further concerns about blood tests or anything else, do not hesitate to start a new thread. Cristiana
