Heck, I'd say there's much less actual breast exposure when a woman nurses a baby than you'd see in any blue jeans or perfume ad!

Not to mention breastfeeding moms don't typically wear revealing clothes...you see more with what a lot of teens wear in public nowadays!

Fiddle-Faddle, breast or bottle is a choice for us. I do not want the government telling me what and how I have to feed my babies. As far as which is best, my mom nursed me for a year, and I still have celiac. I nursed my oldest for two years, and she has all of the symptoms of celiac.

Yes, it IS a choice. But I don't think formula should be considered an EQUIVALENT choice to breastfeeding. It is better than, say giving your baby cow's milk mixed with corn syrup, but not much better. It is not equivalent to breastmilk, and let's not pretend that it is.!

If you and your oldest had been given formula rather than mother's milk, you might very well have been MUCH worse off than you are now.

Let's look at autism, which is closely linked with celiac (a majority of autistics dp vastly better off of gluten and dairy). I've read now in many sources AND been told over and over again by every doctor who assessed my son and every consultant who worked with him that the prognosis for children with autism bears a direct relationship with whether or not they were breastfed.

Oh, and I do agree with you about the government telling you anything.

Are we talking about activian or the other new one. My husband had bought me the activan, but i read it is made were other wheat products are made, so that does mean it is not good for celiacs or others with wheat intolerance, right.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
