Disposable Razors


Turtle

Recommended Posts

Turtle Enthusiast

I generally used Gillette razors and have NEVER had any problems...but my sister bought some Bic disposables and she decided she didn't like them and she passed them off to me.

I have never had good luck w/ Bic razors and should have gotten off my lazy shell and gotten to the store before putting myself in a position to only have the Bic razors on hand to use but that didn't happen.

SO...I used the Bic and the result is itchy, itchy, itchy shaved legs!!! :wacko:

Does anyone know if those little strip things on the razors can have gluten in them and maybe that's the cause of my itchy itch??

Oh yeah, the Bics have been tossed in the trash and i'm off to the store for my Gillettes! See ya! :P

I doubt its gluten, I think its more of getting what you pay for....???

I don't know what brand I bought just recently - but I

thought they didn't have the little aloe strips on them -

well after breaking out with red itchy patches - I looked

and lo and behold they DID have the tiny strips on them.

I am allergic to all kinds of things - so lesson learned

examine a lot closer!

      @Scott Adams Thank you so much for this thoughtful and encouraging reply 💛 It really helps me feel less alone navigating all of this! I’ve definitely been strict gluten-free, but I’ll admit — in the beginning, I honestly knew nothing about cross-contamination 😅 so it’s very possible my gut is still healing from that. I feel very abnormal because I am not a typical celiac or a typical Crohn's, so it makes me feel very stuck.

      Hi still the same unfortunately, they had to cancel my colonoscopy due to my trapped nerve , I'm awaiting some kind of scan , it was the nurses who  told me to refuse and asked a docter , and I was told to cancel and go back to my consultant , I think because my sciatic nerve is compressed between my herniated discs , the prep was enough I could handle , but the colonoscopy itself , they advised me to seek something different ,due to the position I had to be in and the movements , so I will update Wen I know more , thankyou for asking appreciated 🤗

      It sounds like you're navigating a complex situation with your celiac disease, and it’s understandable to feel confused by the GI world! While celiac disease typically affects the duodenum and proximal small intestine, it’s possible for inflammation to extend to the ileum, especially in cases of more severe or longstanding damage. Since your tTG-IgA remains elevated despite a strict gluten-free diet, this could indicate ongoing healing or subtle gluten exposure. The ileal inflammation might still be related to celiac, though it’s good your doctor is ruling out other conditions like Crohn’s, given the nonspecific biopsy findings. Some people with celiac do report ileal involvement, particularly if they have refractory disease or delayed healing. Keeping close follow-up with your GI and possibly revisiting your diet for hidden gluten sources could help. Hang in there—it’s a journey, and you’re doing great by staying proactive!
