Spice Drops (walmart Brand)

Hi everyone,

I've been kind of bummed out this week because it's been soooo rough. I had another ER visit last Sun. for abdominal pain (5 of those in the last few months). The pain is better at times but sometimes even the vicodin I take for it doesn't help. Plus I had to take my 10 year old daughter to the Children's hospital for more tests. I should get those back in a week or so and I'll know whether she has the gene and how she is now. I know a lot of you go through the same thing and helps to read about it. I did have good news that my levels have improved (I've been gluten free for 2 1/2 months) and when I call my Dr. on Tues. I'll find out by how much.

Anyways, does anyone get really excited when they find something they used to love and thought they'd never be able to have again? This all might sound stupid but I was at Walmart today. I didn't realize how well they label some things. I used to love spice drops (I'm not a big candy eater) and right there the Great Value brand says GLUTEN FREE right on it. I definitely picked them up and some candy corn too that was labeled. So they aren't the healthiest thing. It's more like comfort food. Even my other daughter was excited for me.

Sorry to ramble on.

Diane

P.S. Does anyone use gluten free all purpose flour? Is it worth getting?

      Celiac Disease, Lymphocytic colitis and Bowel rupture

      Welcome to the celiac.com community @MoniqueCham! Celiac disease damages the villous lining of the small bowel but, as far as I know, doesn't affect the underlying smooth muscle tissue of the bowel.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I am monitored for this value of Vit D. I kept going down so the Vit D had to be increased.

      Celiac Disease, Lymphocytic colitis and Bowel rupture

      I was diagnosed with celiac disease 40 years ago and lymphocytic colitis 20 years ago along with refractory celiac disease affecting mid jejunum to mid ileum (diagnosed using a capsule endoscopy). My antibodies to tissue transglutaminase were normal on a strict gluten free diet. Both the lymphocytic colitis and the refractory celiac disease responded well...

      Celiac Disease, Lymphocytic colitis and Bowel rupture

      By MoniqueCham · Posted

      I was diagnosed with celiac disease 40 years ago and lymphocytic colitis 20 years ago along with refractory celiac disease affecting mid jejunum to mid ileum (diagnosed using a capsule endoscopy). My antibodies to tissue transglutaminase were normal on a strict gluten free diet. Both the lymphocytic colitis and the refractory celiac disease responded well to entocort. I have a number of autoimmune conditions including systemic granuloma annulaire (a skin condition) which was treated with methotrexate. I was on a low dose of methotrexate (15 mg once a week with folic acid every day when not taking methotrexate). In 5 months my sigmoid colon ruptured. Pathology reports show that I had significant necrosis of my sigmoid bowel due to no known cause and a large hole in the bowel. My surgeons felt that the methotrexate may have caused the damage and rupture to my bowel (1 in a million chance). My question is has anyone experienced similar issues with methotrexate given that the integrity of our intestines may be compromised in celiac disease?

      What should I expect from a UK restaurant advertising / offering "Gluten Free" food

      By trents · Posted

      @cristiana, I'm thinking the intensity of our response to the same amount of gluten can vary from time to time. Our bodies are a dynamic entity.
