I was diaganosed a while back with Celiac disease and the doctor told me I was also allergic to lactose and fructose. Here's the question...if I did away with the gluten in my diet but continue to use

lactose and fructose products,will the lactose and fructose do damage to my body?

I can only speak for myself; but I noticed that I am way more sensitive now to my food allergens

than when first tested and diagnosed for allergies - which was 20 years ago. I personally

stay away from it all and I have a lot of things that I am allergic to.

Way back when I first was diagnosed, my doctor suggested that I food challenge my

body to find out which items that I was really sensitive to other than the obvious reacting ones.

Trouble for me was - that symptons were different for different food food groups, ie: migraine headaches from

corn, hives from strawberries/shrimp, asthma from soy, etc. So it comes down to a personal choice - can your body handle a little? Also depends on how much damage there is from celiac disease as to whether your body can digest

the allergic proteins. Lots to consider.

Hope I haven't confused you further! :unsure:

I've read many places that lactose intolerance is often a result of celiac disease, but after eliminating gluten for a time the lactose intolerance may diminish. I also had that problem, but in my gluten testing I also got tested for casein sensitivity and found out I had that too, which means I should avoid dairy as much as gluten. If you eat dairy when you are casein sensitive, you can also damage your intestines. So it might be a good idea to get specifically tested for casein sensitivity. As for fructose, it's a HORRIBLE product that no one should eat, period.

How can you damage your intestines from casein? Thanks in advance.

      Thought was finished with this but a friend just sent email saying she takes Tirosin liquid levothyroxine which has no fillers (mentioned by Pgetha above).  Friend's doc sends script to one of Tirosin's direct-mail pharmacies.  Looking that up, government insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) doesn't cover (as Pgetha wrote above).  But if use one of their direct-mail places three month supply is $57/month.  Researching that, happened to learn Yaral also makes a generic gluten-free levothyroxine.

      Lysine is helpful for "cold sores" (oral herpes).

      @Wheatwacked, Are you aware of the interaction of potassium iodide and losartan ?   https://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/iodine-potassium-iodide-with-losartan-1368-0-1489-0.html#:~:text=Talk to your doctor before,to safely use both medications.

      As a life.long celiac, I understand this.  I simply ask that the medical profession stop disregarding the fact that it should remain a concern for some. It cost me a lot of medical discomforts.

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.
