maybe it was something else you ate? (wishful thinking?!)

Cant be. Had bunless Hamburgers before it and it hit me before I ate anything after it.

Of course now I have a wonder in back of my mind if i am this senstive to diary... maybe my gluten challenges were contimanated by diary. Diary can cause all the same symptons from what I have read so far. BAH

Man, what a bummer! :angry:

I hope you are feeling better this morning, though it may take longer.

Of course now I have a wonder in back of my mind if i am this senstive to diary... maybe my gluten challenges were contimanated by diary. Diary can cause all the same symptons from what I have read so far. BAH

Do you really want to try another gluten challenge....?

Question: Are you milk reactions that simliar to your gluten reactions?? Mine are simliar, but milk does not give me the severe abdominal pain, and arthritis flare ups (for days) that gluten does. All else remains the same.......?

For now I am TRYING to be gluten-free and DF for long enough to get somewhat better. From there when I am not exploding in the toliet room and etc I can think about this clearer.... but prbly will try a gluten challange again. In the end, I have to be true to me, and I am a university trained statisticain and software engineer. To me testing is part of life. heh. I test stuff (hey, did not say I had english degree LOL) as a routine part of my job/life daily. My son has postive blood work/etc for celiac disease so I know he has it, but I have never had any test for ANYTHING come back postive. The triple gluten challange I did I thought was good, but at the time I was under the assumption that dairy was not a factor, and did not isloate it from the test. Since I did the gluten part of it with pizza, cake,etc (fun foods, if I was to get sick I was gonna enjoy it! hehe) dairy was defintly part of it. *sigh*

Symptons appear to be identical, cept in degree but htat could be due to the "trace amount".

SO SORRY about your B/Cake...booooooo Hissss :ph34r:

:( It's such a bummer trying to figure it out.

for me -it might have been the choco..maybe soy in the chips..? Remember my banana/choc chip/brownies that made me sick??? Tasted great but ...those didn't bother you hugh?

I don't know but for me--different from someone here, finding the dairy causes more for the join & muscle pain and aches and flu like symptoms and the gluten..explosive D cramps and chills and also flu like with m/joint aches too. But more j/m with dairy some lose stools.

Hang in there..hugs

LOL :lol: Well, you could try a white cake, put in 2 little drops of milk and see if you have the same reaction. It would be a good test.

Well, thanks, but comes back to the fact that I started down this road after I reacted to a cup of whole milk, even though I took Lactate wtih it it. So that rules out chololate and tapioca flour, unless they are jsut in addtion. :o

Since you're willing to bake from scratch next time, try the Wacky cake. It's somewhere on this site, and there's no egg, milk, or nuts. It's easy to make and tastes pretty good. I think it's a bit gritty with rice flour. I used a sorghum/corn flour mix the second time and it was better than with a rice mix.

I liked that mix cause I could get everything i needed at Kroger for it, where as coooking from scratch requires a trip to Wild Oats for that one exotic flour that you HAVE to be out of everytime. We treck out there at most once a month cause its such a hike, and the place is a mob scence. But next time we are planning to head out I guess I will dig through the recipes and see what sounds tasty.

There another store not far from here that carries the Gluten Free Pantry line of mixes, I wonder if they have a dairy free one thats good.

I am almost positive that the GFP Cake and Cookie Mix is lactose free. It makes the best white cake--better than any "regular" cake I've ever had. I use it to make pineapple upside down cake that is yummy.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If black seed oil is working for his Afib, stick to it, but if not, I can say that ablation therapy is no big deal--my mother was out of the procedure in about 1 hour and went home that evening, and had zero negative effects from the treatment. PS - I would recommend that your husband get an Apple watch to monitor his Afib--there is an app and it will take readings 24/7 and give reports on how much of the time he's in it. Actual data like this should be what should guide his treatment.

      Covid caused reoccurrence of DH without eating gluten

      By Jacki Espo · Posted

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      My only proof

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
