:blink: Aloha,

Yesterday I ate one of those huge icecream bars covered w/chocolate and rolled in chopped almonds from Costco food court. Well about 1/2 hr after consuming I got in the WORST mood GRUMPPPY!!!

I don't know if that was a gluten or sugar response but it was NOT a good one!!!

My boss, whom also has celiac said that he can't eat anything from Costco food court without feeling sick.

Well I avoid sugar as well as gluten I don't know what caused my reaction but no more of that for me!! no matter how delicious it was :( ><>suzanne<><

That is the only thing I eat from Costco's food court. I think for me it's so big and way to much chocolate. I love ice cream but it doesn't set well with me anymore. I don't know why that is but I was told that there is no gluten in the bar.It could be a dairy issue. I don't feel bad if I only eat a half of one. I guess maybe its the size. It's like you just ate a quart of ice cream at one sitting. And the sugar rush to may cause some trouble.

I love Costco's !!!

As a diagnosed Celiac for 23 years, the only thing I have eaten over the years, and not knowingly had flour in it, was ice cream from such places as Costco! Hockey games etc that sell those nice looking ice cream bars, rolled in hot chocolate sauce and rolled in nuts....definate no, no! Each time I was sick for a week; severe stomach ache, couldn't walk or even straighten up for a week. Needless to say, I don't eat ANY ice cream that I can't read the ingredients any more.

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Celiac symptoms

      By Dana0207 · Posted

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      Celiac symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
