Hey everyone, hope all is well for yall!!

Ok have been under major stress (my daugher has been running from the law. she left her 3 kids and just took off told me she was going underground and going to change her name, she is a alcoholic and in a bad way now, she text messaged me yesterday and said she got raped in a park the night before last. It is so hard to think of your own kids living like that. Yesterday, I was reading the board and someone mentioned eating Progresso clam chowder and that it was gluten free. I had some so I called the manufacture myself to make sure. Thay told me it was gluten free so I tried it.

I only have a few staples that I eat mostly all the time so I dont think it was anything else I ate..Started feeling bad pretty much as soon as I ate it. Last night I broke out with DH.Its so painful I can hardly sit. Feel to bad to do anything, so now laying on my belly :(

I get real upset at my tummy, and cant eat anything!!! Drinking as much water as I can but even that makes me feel bad.

Sorry for the post kind of confusing even for me to read but feel to bad to redo it. Does anyone have any ideas to help me. Only been gluten-free for 21/2 months so I know I still make mistakes. my mind just wont work anymore..

I'm sooo sorry you are going through all of that! Alcoholism is very hard to deal with and effects everyone around teh person with the disease. I've been there...my son's father!

Stress definetly could be amplifying your symptoms!!!! Are you sure everything else is gluten-free????

Again, I'm sorry and we are all here for you if you need to vent/talk/cry!

So sorry for your woes- that is TOO hard! The stress could do it alone and then, if you're not used to the Progresso clam chowder", you could just be reacting because it's new. I find when I'm introducing new foods after so long on a strict diet that it takes awhile for me to get used to them. Assuming you've checked cosmetics, shampoos, hand creams and all that...

Peace to you and feel better soon!

thank you so much everyone!!

i_mommy

Yes, it is so hard, she is only 25 years old. And in such a bad place. I am pretty sure that I am totally gluten-free, shampoo's , cream rinse, make up (not that i wear much) pots, pans spoons, can opener, cutting board, soaps, i just dont know what else to do. Guess it is just stress, I am not sleeping well, when she does text me its in the middle of the night, so i sleep with one ear on the phone. I am so afraid for her life. Not to mention the grandkids, they are so upset, the 6 year old boy started pooping his pants. he had not done that since 2. They live 2 hours away,its not that its that far I just feel so bad i have a hard time making it up there. :(

That is something I never thought of. I dont think I want to try it again. I break out with DH on my right buttock. Not something you want to live with. yes i have checked everything that I come into contact with. As far as I know of. Pretty new to this though, only 2 1/2 months.

Thanks for letting me rant!! BARB :huh:

Stress could be causing alot of problems... also are you sure shellfish is an okay thing for you to eat? Tons of people cannot do any type of shellfish...... plus creamed soups can cause reactions for some.

My brother is a recovered elky for 26 years now.... can you get her into a rehab center? even if you have to have her picked up by the police for loitering in a public place, someday she will thank you for it. Use tough love or she may ended up deceased... We did this after years of drug & booze abuse.. my mom would give him money for food cause his cabinets were bare because he used his $$$$ for booze & drugs, finally I had a police officer arrest him for some dumb little thing & committed him for three days ( law in our state) & then sent him off to rehab . He had no ins. so I went thru AA & they helped pay ...

good luck & I'll say a prayer for you..

      Son's legs shaking

      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...

      Son's legs shaking

      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...

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      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...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      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...

      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.

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?

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.
