The CS took a minute for me too but other than that, sounds like a quote that I will/can use when something bad happens!

Glad you got drugs to fix you problems so back to work will get more normal!!!

I don't know about anybody else, but I get "pink eye" in my right eye when I've eaten soy. It also makes my lips swell a little bit and I get this weird rash on the corners of my lips and on the bottom. It looks kinda like clown makeup! Only it's never on the top.

But the pink eye thing for me is never the viral kind. I spent an entire summer two years ago on steroids and avoiding everyone I knew b/c I thought it was pink eye, but it's an allergy for me. It's very itchy and achy and watery and I even get a bump like a stye sometimes. Ugh!

Feeling better yet, ChelsE?

Yes, I am feeling better, thanks :)

My eyes still itch but I'm keeping on those eye drops and the impetigo is almost gone (thank God)

Not wearing eye makeup yet <_< As my mom so kindly pointed out, I look like a rat without makeup. Blonde eyelashes. Can't wait! Have to buy all new stuff, I guess.

I had one of those weekends where EVERYTHING went wrong, but can't blame that on the pink eye :rolleyes:

OH BOY, I saw this topic and cringed. Last year, in March 2005, my 1 yr old son, was was just begining to get pink eye, but we didn't know what to look for at the time. He had all the classic symptoms (that we now know). He wasn't quite rid of it when my daughter came down with it about a week in a half later amd the momms about three days later too. Then my husband another week in a half later and then of course, the momma a week 1/2 afterwards AGAIN. We took up the whole month with pink eye!

I remember this rather like it was yesterday, because when my son was just getting it, we had gotten family pictures done for our church year book and he looks awful. :) GRIN

It's contagious all right. The meds and drops did help and boy do you need to wash wash WASH with soap every time after administering and touching.

Oh, well. At least, enjoy the extra time you get not having to put on make-up, and how nice it feels to be able to wash your face whenever you want!

Who says eyelashes have to be dark, anyway? In another 50 years, the fashion trends will swing the other direction, and we'll all be dying our eyelashes blonde!

      I agree with @trents, but thank you for bringing this up here!

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.
