According to their website, all Vicks products are gluten-free (this includes Dayquil and Nyquil). I use the Dayquil Sinus pills with no problem.

I hope you feel better soon!

Sudafed sinus and cold works well. I also use AYR Saline sinus rinse twice a day, it really "washes" out the sinuses. Hope you feel better.

neti pot (aka sinus rinse, or nasal lavage) can be very useful. getting plenty of exercise and sleep are also good preventatives, along with good nutrition. I know it sounds vague, general, and not direct, but it really is as basic as "get moderate intensity exercise every day" and "get at least 7 hours of sleep" (or thereabouts) every night to keep the immune system functioning well. no, it doesn't mean you'll never catch a cold, but it lowers your chances of getting one or of staying sick for very long.

I take Benadryl because if I don't I get sinus infections from colds.

I also irrigate my sinuses with salt water.

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
