Hard Time Coping

You wouldn't want to deprive those 7 of a good, long life on your part.

If possible, unless someone mentioned this and I missed it, try to spend a little time each week planning out your meals so you know. If you use gluten-free mixes for cookies and bread. . or a bake mix, mix up a big batch of it so it is always on hand if you need to make something quickly. You can store it in ziplock bags.

I suggest shopping for food at the Gluten-Free Pantry <Open Original Shared Link free.com/> which delivers food to your door. We have tried the pizza and coffee cake and you would NEVER know the diffence between it and food with gluten in it.

Don't give up!

as many others have suggested try tinkyada pasta! i made a lasagne the other night and it was sooooo good. my son had no idea anything was different about it!!

for asian dishes try tai kitchen. they have a lot of curry sauces and mixes that are gluten free.

in time this will get easier!! when you start feeling better you will realize that its worth it!!

Did you make the recipe on the lasagna box? I'm thinking of trying it. I made the Tinkyada stuffed shells with my pre gluten recipe and they came out great!

      Hi everyone, I have celiac disease and I’m asymptomatic, which makes things more stressful because I don’t know when I’ve been glutened. That’s why I try to be really careful with cross-contamination. For almost a year, I’ve been having yellow/orange floating stools consistently. I’m not sure if it’s related to gluten exposure or something else going on. I’ve been trying to identify any possible mistakes in my routine. Today, I made myself some gluten-free bread with cheese. Normally, I’m very careful: I use one hand to handle the cheese packaging (which could be contaminated, since it’s from the supermarket and was probably sitting on a checkout belt that had flour residue), and the other hand to touch my gluten-free bread and plate. But today I accidentally touched the bread with the same hand I used to grab the cheese pack from the fridge. The fridge handle might also have traces of gluten since I live in a shared household where gluten is used. I’m worried this mistake could have contaminated my bread. There were no visible crumbs or flour, but I know even trace amounts can be a problem. Has anyone had similar experiences or symptoms from this level of contact? Could this kind of exposure be enough to trigger symptoms or cause intestinal damage? Thanks for reading.

      So eight days in a row of gluten on top of gluten on top of gluten, I just had to resort to the EpiPen. I wish I could post a picture because you wouldn’t believe how enormous my gut is! It makes my head look like a pinhead.Ahhhgggsahhhhh!!!! I have discovered that I have to read the ingredients when I use a product up that I’ve been able to use without getting a reaction, because they can change the ingredients and bam my toothpaste now has gluten!!! my doctor told me gluten free means it has 20 ppm which someone with a severe a celiac as I’ve got that thing there kills me. I try to find certified gluten-free in everything. I can’t eat any oats unless it’s Bob’s red mill certified gluten-free. Good luck everybody this autoimmune disease is wicked wicked

      I have been using a little bit of Lubriderm when I wash my hands because it’s the lotion offered at a place I frequent once a week. Assuming it was gluten-free I bought a bottle. I couldn’t figure out why I was getting gluten EVERY night. I use a little of the lotion in the morning on my neck, with no reaction, but at night, I use it on my arms and legs and face and get gluten gut pretty bad. After eight nights of having to have diphenhydramine injections for severe gluten, I googled “is Lubriderm gluten-free” and it led me to this forum. I am going to go back to olive oil as I have been gut sick sooooooo bad with a huge gut and pain eight days in a row now. Sick of feeling sick.

      These look great!  I follow several people who frequently post gluten-free recipes online (plus they sell their cookbooks). "Gluten Free on a Shoestring" and "Erin's Meaningful Eats>"
