This diet is so frustrating sometimes!! I think I got either glutened or food poisoned at taco bell...all I had were the pinto beans w/ cheese, and i had my own chips at home. Got pretty sick from that. Then, I either got sick from chic-fil-a's fries (which I have eaten numerous times and been fine...) or else I got CC from making tacos (flour tortillas for DH)...this is a pain!

hey sweetfudge,

im soooo sorry. wow, what a bummer. it can be so frustrating...

sounds like all of your possibilites are very possible. i have gotten horribly sick at both chick fil a and taco bell..I finally had to tell myself than any glutenings are just not worth it because I get sick...plus making flour things *can* be risky.

I wish I could make it all better....its one of those "I'll never do that again" moments (like, "I'll never drink again" when we are hungover....;))

Hey Sweetfudge: For the most part, I don't cook/bake with anything containing gluten...the exception is Christmas baking with my kids. I wear one of those face masks, make the kids pour and mix the flour in the garage :rolleyes: and wipe the counters etc real often with paper towel and soap and water--yeah I'm a bit of a freak in that department but it really helps.

Dear Sweetfudge,

I feel for you! I can so relate (as can all of us on the forum). It is a pain. My parents are not gluten-free. My mother treats me like a hypochondriac. Dad is coming around a bit more now.

She has always been convinced that I am crazy, though. She is obsessed with it. She labels everyone with some form of psychological disorder. Since she went to beauty school, she does not apply for a mental health professional. However, many hairdressers must often act as therapists! I got glutened the other week, and could not figure out how! Then, the other night, Mom used my Smart Balance Light so now I have to get new butter! UUURGGGGHHH!!! People are just not careful! I just do not go out to eat! My cousin and Aunt came to visit, but they always go out to eat. So, I did not end up going. It sucks having to explain yourself to everyone all of the time.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

P.S. My business site is finally up and running. go to www.kimskraftsgiftsandmore.com to check it out.

Please spread it around. I desperately need customers!

Sorry your mom isn't any better. I know, I screamed at my husband the other day for using HIS butterknife to butter his bread with MY butter!

I don't go out to eat often, but I miss it a lot!

Congrats on the business! Wow you have a lot of stuff on there! Do you make it all or just sell it? I'm gonna have to put in an order once I get some extra money :) Hopefully I'll get christmas cash from relatives!!

      Ibuprofen

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse. But it is important not to stop the treatment. Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency. I didn't know...

      still struggling with cravings

      I totally get this. It's absolutely a grieving process, and it's okay to feel gutted about the loss of those simple joys, especially at 18. Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, ...

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?

Im angery because the "celiac specialist " basically lightly dismissed me.Im extremely angery and fighting for a new primary care physician which is hard to do in Northern Cali.So currently without and looking.Im angery that its lightly taken when its extremely serious to the one who has it.My only evidence is a brochure back in the days when I got news letters when I lived at my parents.It was published in 1998.I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet. Angery doctors don't take seriously when Im clearly speaking.I did write to the medicine of congress and have case number.

Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, I promise, but it's okay to sit in the sadness and just vent about how much it stings right now. Thanks for sharing that. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:
