Maybe I shouldnt be worried about this since he could be wrong, but i went to my family doc this mornin because i swore i had a sore throat (it feels raw and hard to swallow, etc). He tells me no its not my throat, that my thyroids are swollen :blink: . So he gave me some dumb prescription for rinsing mouth or whatever, and wants me to go for bloodwork. Should i be concerned??

Are you sure he didn't mean tonsils?

...but get your bloods done anyway I think :)

Hope your throat feels better soon :)

Yes it can cause a swollen feeling, but I don't know about pain. If you get the tests get the whole panel including the thyroid peroxidase anitbodies.

What in the world is that??? All i know is he checked off TSH.

TSH is only one of the thyroid panel tests, and unfortunately is the one that many docs often use to make the treatment decision.

If your thyroid is swollen, I'd make sure you really have a sharp doc good in this area. Perhaps an endocrinologist?

Even if i did find one of those docs, it would take MONTHS to get in

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
