My Pork O Nooo Help


Lister

Recommended Posts

Lister Rising Star

i accedently droped one of my pork chops into the sink, the sink may or may not have wheat containing crumbs in it plus its a sink. I picked the pork up with a fork and then washed it really good with hot water, would this still be safe to eat gluten or germ wise? gah i hope it is, i dont want ot have to waist that big of a chop, its on the pan cooking next to the other chops incase its ok

The heat should take care of the germs (make sure it's cooked well), but I'm not sure about the gluten...

i think i rinsed it pretty well, i did not physicaly tuch it but i ran it under fast water for a while to try to make sure.... o well im going to eat it no matter what since the germs are gone, my stomic pains hit me so hard about 30 minutes ago, i seriusly almost called 911 because they where unrelenting and not stopping, they finally went away after i shoved some grapes and carrots down, but now my head is all stoned feeling :( poopers

I think I'd take the chance since your main problem lately seems to be not eating enough... I'd hate to make that worse.

sorry venturing off topic sorta,

but man yeah it seems like i have to constantly eat to keep my stomic happy, i dont get it to me it seems like i eat alot, i have 3 meals a day and lite snacks inbetween, and hell when i buy my rice chips (try not to very offten) i usualy eat the whole bag before the day is over and that is suppsoed to be 6 servings

the heat won't kill the gluten.

lister, to be honest, if you're strapped for cash buy cheaper proteins (like canned tuna, nuts, eggs, and legumes, in addition to meat that is on sale), and don't buy rice chips... those are empty calories (the chips), that's why you can eat the whole bag.

i know the heat will not kill the gluten, i am hoping the water washed off any gluten that may have got onto it, i did not smear it in the sink or anything, i accedently dropped it onto some soap suddeds, so i washed it for like 2 minutes, i dont know i think its safe, i did not see any gluten in the sink but i guess u never know.

as for beeing strapped for cash, im not right now i just got paid as for the tuna i wish i could but i cant stomic tuna i really really hate the smell it makes me gag ( i almost cant stand chicken anymore also)

okay, well, i was just suggesting in case it happens again (where you are strapped for cash), and those are just suggestions, not what you should buy. just trying to help, lister.

Lister Rising Star

i know and thanks for the advice. oh to add on, anyone know what brands of bagged beans are ok? i cant find just beans in the produce besides in bulk and im scared of bulk bins

lorka150 Collaborator

Any dried beans that are packaged should be fine. I've never seen any without only the bean as the ingredient.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:
