Could I really be being poisioned by the makeup? I mean.. really.. the UK celiac basically society says that idea is BS?

Is it just the fact that I have eaten nothing but veggies for two days and my bodys not used to THAT?

Yes your makeup could be doing it, or your shampoo. Also check on the tea, not all are safe and I have learned the hard way that I want to see a gluten free label even on teas.

The Celiac society state very clearly that you CANNOT be affected by the make up though - im so confused.

Is "soya' soy? If so, I'd get rid of it and see. Yes, if you are highly intolerant it could be trace amts in make-up or tea or... Soy bothers me awfully.

If it's lipstick, you eat it, so don't know why anyone would say that's okay.

tbh i dont wear lippie that often (vasaline gloss and that i know is gluten-free!)..but yeah, the guidelines say that it cant be an issue anyway. I use dove though and the rest of my body prodicts are ok, save the makeup which im having real truble getting answers on!

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
