Arg! Glutened


Adelle

Recommended Posts

I just found out that the tater tots that my husband bought are NOT gluten free. I thought I was feeling so crappy because of my cpap not working (I also have sleep apnea). But it may be the tots we had!! I'm so frustrated at myself, aparently I need to read all the labels wether or not he reads them. Honest mistake I know, but I'm just so frustrated at myself!!

I was convinced that if I was glutened, it was from what I ate at my sister's house (they have been super accomodating and careful). I can't believe I was so quick to blame her when it was my fault!

Thanx for letting me rant.

PS: my mom told me that my great aunt went into the hospital (I've never met her and didn't know abt her health issues) and came out healthier and she wants to talk to me about celiac disease. Somehow now I'm the expert (1 month on the diet!)!

Thanx guys!

Adelle: This happens to us all.

I have even bought things myself and read the labels 3x (once on the shelf, once going into the trolley and once unpacking)

When you do this with something you then have as a comfort food it can be really tough. I used to buy a specific brand of tortilla chips and later when they changed the labelling they had unnamed starch and later wheat starch....

I spent months eatiung these being ill and miserable... (literally for lunch most days) ....

Life sucks then you find gluten free..... ???

      It seems crazy to me that even when you call a manufacturer they can't, in this day and age, answer the simple question about what exactly is in their product!!

      Thank you so much for your response! It's been a challenging journey with this condition!

      Thank you very much for your response. Since I got this advice I called Pepsid manufacturer and they could not give a definite answer. Basically,  there is no final testing and they do not guarantee anything. So I went and got farmotidine from Wagmans that was marked gluten-free and also our pediatrician gave us a prescription for farmotidine that was also gluten-free. So there are other options there thankfully. In case someone will come across of this dilemma.

      A nutritionist typically focuses on general wellness, lifestyle guidance, and preventative health. A dietician allowed to provide medical nutrition therapy. When i was diagnosed there was zero support and few dieticians and Dr understood celiac disease.  I typically guide a newly diagnosed celiac to a whole food diet to easily transition to the gluten free lifestyle

      Your gluten-free journey sounds like a lot of trial and error—especially working in a deli where gluten exposure is constant! The eye-watering issue could be an airborne gluten sensitivity (like flour dust irritating your eyes) or even a mild wheat allergy, since you’re around it daily. A daily antihistamine (like Claritin or Zyrtec) might help if it’s allergy-related, but avoiding airborne gluten as much as possible (masking, washing hands/face often) is key. It’s great you’re tracking triggers—high-fiber foods and certain gluten-free substitutes (like those tortillas or PB pretzels) can sometimes cause similar symptoms due to additives or digestive adjustments. For travel, pack safe snacks (protein...
