More Than A Gluten Allergy?

Does anyone have an allergy to gluten, dairy, AND eggs? I am new to this and am having a hard time. I'm not finding many foods that I can eat that are free of all 3. I love fruits and veggies, but am getting bored with them. And I'm not a big meat or fish eater either, so I'm really limiting myself. Any advice???

Yep! Soy too! I'll try to post some recipes/ideas when I have time tomorrow. I learned to love rice pilaf made with nuts, spices and dried fruit. Cornbread can be made pretty easily in mini muffin tins. Those are the quickest things I can think of now - more later.

OH YEAH! Intolerant to gluten, milk, casien, egg yolks, almonds, and some other weird foods I dont care about. Usually the other foods inolerances go away after being on a gluten-free diet for awhile. I can have eggs, almonds and stuff now just no gluten or milk. I think whne yuor first diagnosed your intestines are so damgaed your allergic to alot of stuff. Going gluten-free repairs! yayy now if only i had time to cook

I have an important question in this reguard. I'm off gluten, and I still get the runs. Is this a 'symptom of recovery' or a sign I'm allergic to something else?

Check out the cookbook, "Cooking Free", by Carol Fenster. It's got tons of recipes with options to make them gluten/dairy/egg-free - and the recipes taste good, too. This is my favourite cookbook; we use it all the time and like it MUCH better than the Gluten Gourmet ones.

I'm gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free. I do eat eggs, but I don't like meat. I cook a lot with lentils. Go to a great health food store or farmer's market and find new fruits and veggies you've never tried before. You also might want to pick up a raw foods cookbook. Might give you some ideas.

Well, I cked out this post b/c your name was Hoosier--and I'm from Indiana. Not sure if that's why you choose that name though!

Anywho, food allergies often come in groups... and a good number of Celiacs have intolerances/allergies to other foods, as well as gluten. Are you having difficulty finding safe products or coming up with menus that are safe for your diet?

How long have you been G.F?Could anything you ate have been 'cross contaminated'?

Do you still eat milk products?

It took my husband a year or more G.F for the diarrhea to stop (still gets it sometimes)

Anything that has been cross contaminated will also trigger 'D'.

Finally ,alot of coeliacs find they can't tolerate any milk or dairy products (for my husband the lactose intolerance only lasted a couple of months) :)

I'm not from Indiana, but I graduated from IU in 2002. I'd love to move back!

I'm just having difficulty coming up with things to eat. It's just been hard finding things to make (other than chicken, rice, and veggies every night, or pasta) that are egg, dairy, and gluten free. I have found egg and gluten free, so I'm on the right track.

Check out the cookbook, "Cooking Free", by Carol Fenster. It's got tons of recipes with options to make them gluten/dairy/egg-free - and the recipes taste good, too. This is my favourite cookbook; we use it all the time and like it MUCH better than the Gluten Gourmet ones.

Thank you! I will order that now!

I'm gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free. I do eat eggs, but I don't like meat. I cook a lot with lentils. Go to a great health food store or farmer's market and find new fruits and veggies you've never tried before. You also might want to pick up a raw foods cookbook. Might give you some ideas.

Thanks for the advice. I'll start with the farmer's market and try to find something new. Anything besides apples, grapes, and oranges :)

I hear ya! I can't eat gluten, dairy, soy or potatoes! The frustrating part about the potatoes is that potato starch seems to be in every gluten free product on the market today! It is so hard to find things to eat...I'm with ya. Mainly, I just wish it were easier to find something to eat! My local natural foods supermarket has an enormous gluten-free section and I can't eat any of it.

I wish health insurance would pay for a personal chef! :-)

      Dealing with celiac and menstrual cycle

      Good point, as thyroid conditions are more common in those with celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/thyroid-pancreatic-disorders-and-celiac-disease/

      @DebD5 it sounds like you are in the super sensitive celiac disease zone--and if so your reactions are real, and not psychological, as your doctor implied.  It's also possible you have other dietary triggers so be sure to look at that article in my last post in this thread.

      How many people here are aware that there are 9 types of gluten that Celiacs should be aware of?

      By DebD5 · Posted

      I would like to say you saved me. I’ve been so sick the last few years, celiac since 1997. And reading your post about the other glutens/grains that can be sensitive to celiacs, is the only thing that has ever helped me. Since going off a carbohydrates/grains, even gluten-free ones, My chronic pain is  85% better. I’m actually losing weight which, that’s a long story but was impossible. I definitely am like you. Thank you so very much for posting. For some of celiacs I do believe this is the magic key.

      Curious if I should quit my job

      By DebD5 · Posted

      I 100% believe if you were sticking gluten items, especially flour, and breathed it in you could be glutened. I’m a celiac for almost 30 years. For the first ten years as a celiac I’d help my polish family make pierogis at Christmas time. I would only cook them at the stove and I didn’t touch anything with my hands using spoons. But the flour is in the air. And I’d get violently ill for 1-2 weeks after the last few years I did it. Wearing a back is a great suggestion and washing your clothes and showering when you get home. Good luck. And I’m so sorry your parents are emotionally supporting you.

      Dealing with celiac and menstrual cycle

      By DebD5 · Posted

      Have you had your thyroid checked? I was diagnosed at 24 with celiac. Lost my period permanently at 32. Found out six months after I lost my period that I had 1 ovary with 1 follicle. I had a child already but wanted more. Ended up having two more children with one ovary and one follicle. But my doctors theories are if I would have gotten my thyroid checked sooner and fixed through medication, maybe things would look different. Who knows. I only share my experience so you question your doctors and advocate. Always see an endocrinologist for thyroid care fyi. Actually always see the specific Dr for your specific ailments. I’d also consider seeing a gynecologist that specializes in female hormones/menopausal symptoms. Early ovarian failure happens in celiacs so I read  on the celiac disease center in Chicago website.
