I have not been diagnosed w/ celiac for very long..maybe 3 years..so I truely dont have a grasp for the diet. HOwever I am pregnant and due ion June and my ketones are high and have been high for the past 2 months and the OB told me to get ready to fail the glucose test (which I took yesterday).

I just read on the INternet that I may not be getting enough carbs..which I could see since I DO NOT cook/bake etc, and dont buy alot of bread products anymore. Or it could be attributed to fasting..

PLease give me some food tips..EASY food tips..espcially for 2 days that I dont get a lunch break at work so I would need something quick for those days..right now I eating those rice krispie bars with the panda on the box..(name escapes me)

TIA

i think that protein bars would be alot better for you than the rice crispy bars.

Or maybe increase the amount of fruit you are eating a bit.

my keytones are high everytime i go to the midwife...i am due in a month...i have taken the glucose test 3 times (i have PCOS and am predisposed to gestational diabetes) and have passed every time. i am also drinking so much liquid in a day (like at least 12 cups of something)..so we have just been writing it off as i am just prone to reading as dehydrated...which is all the keytones are supposed to mean as far as i know...are they supposed to be related to gluten intolerance as well?

but dont fret over the glucose test just because of that...just make sure you're getting plenty of fluids and protein...and good luck :)

I dragged a water bottle and fresh fruit everywhere with me when I was pregnant. I had ketones in my urine, too (I had major problems with nausea and vomiting through the whole of all three pregnancies). For some reason, strawberries were practically the only thing I wanted. I don't know if that would help you, especially if there's a glucose problem, but drinking more water might help. I ate a lot of almonds, too.

      Sugar intolerance 10 years into gluten-free diet

      @science enthusiast Christi, It could be Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). Lots of people with Celiac develop it, especially if they eat a high carbohydrate diet. Colonic bacteria crawl into the small intestine and ferment the excess carbohydrates and prebiotic fibers which causes lots of gas. I changed my diet to the Autoimmune...

      I'm not yet diagnosed, seeing a GI March 4th I'm keeping a food diary and yesterday I went to play cards at a friends house and ate things I don't ordinarily eat- mainly a bunch of those mini chocolates that ppl typically give out at Halloween (hershey kisses, mr goodbar. milkway, snickers) I ate er... too many.  also had a tiny bit of some kind of creamy salad dressing on raw veggies.  I had SOO much pain last night in my feet- burning, numbness and pain in my feet and ankles, and a bit less so in my knees. Lasted for hours, kept me up half the night at the same time, the trouble with constipation that I've had ever since being put on the chlorthalidone, has started to improve but then gets worse again...and I can't figure out what is making it worse and what is helping it   it is like my entire digestive tract just shuts down.   Before finding out that I may have a renal calcium leak, I did not use fortified plant milks and did not consume dairy. Since being told to consume 1000-1200 mgs of calcium from food per day- I switched to fortified soy and almond milk and added some non fat or low fat plain yogurt (It is very hard to get that much  calcium from other sources without eating an enormous amt of food- I'm 70 and just can't eat that much. I'm already seeing my weight creep up which is disturbing)   I am seeing that ppl with celiac can have issues with dairy- what would those issues be? Did I get glutened yesterday unknowingly or does chocolate or that tiny bit of salad dressing I had have gluten in it?   My feet are fine this morning! thank goodness but the pain was excruciating last night.   I don't know what to do.  I am thinking that I should ditch the dairy  (which I never really wanted to consume in the first place) and maybe anything with calcium carbonate in it (that is very constipating for me) not only has my GI system slowed down, my stools are strange-  round and often float. This so so different from what used to be my normal (on the Bristol stool score it was in the ideal range) I will go several times a day - these meatball sized round floaters I don't know if I'm still dealing with the after affects of the chlorthalidone (which has a very long half life- my last dose of that was Feb 9th or 11th - I'll have to look that up but I think it's been almost a week.   I just want all this pain and discomfort to stop. but I don't know where it's coming from. those 12 days on gluten have just wrecked my whole system it seems.   any ideas what I might do to help things get back to normal?

I need to find another gi but its useless because its going to be same thing around here.i just feel lost and in tbe medical file they are writing what ever and its really not ok. In fact i dont want to go unless they record the conversation. Yes its that bad.im only having  care and concern for my ms whose Not part of the same health association that pcp and gi are with.I will have to look into changing to another. Mayo clinic is great but its the celiac, sibo, ect and all related issues that need addressed but current " careteam says call when needed. No plans of scheduled dates

      @science enthusiast Christi, It could be Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO).  Lots of people with Celiac develop it, especially if they eat a high carbohydrate diet.   Colonic bacteria crawl into the small intestine and ferment the excess carbohydrates and prebiotic fibers which causes lots of gas.   I changed my diet to the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (AIP), a Paleo diet, and supplemented with a B Complex and Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine that helps heal the intestines and has antibacterial properties.  I had improvement within a few days.  The AIP diet starves out the carbohydrate loving SIBO bacteria and allows more beneficial bacteria a chance to repopulate. Hope this helps.
