Mask free and gluten free at the ball game

Our local minor league stadium is finally letting us fully vacinated folks attend games unmasked.  What fun!  However. the last time I went to a game (pre-celiac diagnosis,) a cold beer and a hot dog was part of the deal.  What to do?  I ordered a gluten free canned cocktail, which was served in a big cup over ice.  This was 90% as good as a beer!  Next, we bought some unshelled peanuts, and had a fine time cracking them open and eating them.  Instead of a hot dog without the bun, I ordered the more substantial cheeseburger without a bun, which came in a paper basket, with french fries.  I was able to get a plastic fork to eat it with.  I thought I adapted pretty well to enjoying a "normal" activity, with my new gluten free life style.  Of course, I took a Gliadenx before the burger and fries to handle the cross contamination.

Good call on the GliadinX, and I would just add that I have no issue bringing my own gluten-free buns with me to such events, or even to restaurants that don't offer a gluten-free bun. I usually just ask them to put the hot dog on a paper plate, and you'll do the rest.

is Gliadin safe to take regularly?  why can’t they make something like that to help us heal ?  

Scott Adams Grand Master

I think you mean GliadinX...and they DO make something like it...it's available. Yes, it's safe to take regularly, I've been doing so for a couple of years now with zero issues. I've taken 4 at one time with no issues.

      Thanks for the update, Ben. If you will be having an endoscopy/biopsy to confirm the results of the blood testing - and this would be the normal protocol - you will still need to continue the gluten challenge until that is done.

      Update on how things went. To meet my daily quantity of gluten I had a measured amount of gluten flour with my breakfast and 2 slices of bread later in the day. I still had discomfort but it wasn't debilitating. My blood tests results came back this week and they were positive so I've been referred to a specialist.

      Hello, Ive been to the dermatologist ( two different ones) and now made appointment, soonest is NOVEMBER. Ive been dealing  with skin issues for a while and its getting  worse because nothing has worked.I feel the bumps, gently squeeze and a itty bitty hard thing is coming out.I took a picture and did close up and in the MANY pictures ive taken this past few days, there's a " string" type thing at the end. I FEEL IT COMING OUT.... At first few pic it looks like hair, its not.Its  part of what ever is in my skin...I did call my Dr yesterday and will be seeing him this Monday. What test should I request to see what the hell is causing my skin to have?I don't know what to call it.I do sleep with my indoor cats.I also have an inheritance cat two years ago who took to sleeping with me as well.I also was on topiramate but had to stop because of speech issues, memory and it can affect those with  kidney stones. I did suffer kidney stones in past.So i had to completely stop.Since freaking out of what i KNOW what I saw, i took matters in my own hands and decided to eat several whole cloves a day.Since doing so, though im not to eat garlic.My skin is actually clearing up sloooooooooowly.but then again I just started 4 days ago and already notice a difference. My husband thinks im seeing things.I know what I see and feel. what test is there to ask doctor about what is in my skin? Husband thinks im seeing things, because of the meningioma and stopping meds.i know what i saw.

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.
    • Name
      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.
