Pamela's Brownies?

Im gluten-free/Cf and I had some Pamela's brownies last weekend. I got like a cold with my sinuses all plugged up and throat sore, It is allergy season and Im wondering if it was just a cold or my allergies or an allergic reaction to the brownies. The package is called Irresistable Brownie Mix and I just wanted to know if anyone had a problem with them.

Pamela's website says the brownie mix is milk-free. This link below lists the ingredients/allergens in the mix if that helps. Sometimes a product can produce a sinus reaction...try and track the ingredients and see if you get a similar reaction when eating another product. However, as I am typing this I do have my second sinus infection since Feb :( so, it has been a bad year for allergies etc. Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks Jen,

I saw that link too, and was a little confused. If you look at the brownie mix,it has a little astreick, I think

(that's where I am confused)it says on the bottom of the page...may contain milk proteins due to manufacturing process.

I also forgot to mention, another symptom, constipation. I always had this before going gluten free and this is the first time I have had it again, since i went gluten-free/cf.

Please, I hope the brownies are okay, and I am not reading that whole littel astreick thingy on the bottom of their chart wrong. I loovvve their brownies... :P

You are right on! It may contain traces of a milk protien and that might have been enough to set you off. I am in the same boat you are. Try the Gluten Free Pantry chocolate truffle brownies... just made them last night ...m...m.mmmm.mmmmm.mmm

the truffle brownies are really good. those are what i eat when in need of a major chocolate fix, i usually don't like chocolate, but since going casein free, i miss it a lot more than i though i would.

      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Thank you, a little expensive but glad to have this source.

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?

      I suffer from Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too.  Like @Rogol72, I had to cut out all gluten-free processed foods, dairy, oats, and eggs before my skin cleared up.  I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet. I also supplement with the eight essential B vitamins.  (Meat and liver are great sources of B vitamins.)  Low levels of certain B vitamins ( B12, Thiamine, Pyridoxine, and Niacin) can affect the nerves, resulting in itching and tingling.  Niacin especially helps with the itching and healing the blisters.  Tallow Balm helps with the healing, too.  Zinc and Vitamin A also help with skin health.   I've gotten such good results with Niacin and the other vitamins mentioned that I've never had to go on Dapsone.

      I think Tierra Farms is a gluten free facility, at least that is what it says on the bag of walnuts that I have.
