Glutened Myself

I had tried this wonderful, gluten free Thai Kitchen brand Pad Thai....so when in Whole Foods the other day I grabbed a different box they had on sale...Annie Chun's Classic Pad Thai. I scanned the ingredient list, but missed the wheat for some reason because I was assuming it was also gluten free. So I made it and ate it, and THEN....discovered the fact that wheat was in it. Ohhhh nooo.....and I'd been so careful lately, with no problems. Bummer..... :(:(:(

Note to myself: Read every label religiously!!! Never assume anything!!!

Sorry to hear of your set back. I've been there, as I am sure many many others have been too.

I can definitely relate. I did the same thing with a jar of garlic chili paste. I missed the wheat in it. ow.

I hope you are feeling better soon. Take care!

Hope you feel better soon! :) I now read the ingredient list from the end to the beginning. For some odd reason, it makes me slow down and read every word.

It is so easy to miss things, then we suffer for it we have all been there.

This has really made me realize that I have to read every single label for every single thing looking for gluten or casein. Things have so many ingredients these days. That's why the Lara bars were such a happy find...just a few ingredients and all natural!

I guess the more ingredients things have the worse they probably are for you! <_<

And you must read them every time you purchase food items, in case manufactoring changes occurred!!!

It is a pain in the arse, but it is worth it to be healthy!!

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
