My daughter out of a big bucket full of candy only had one candy that she couldnt eat :D :D

Last year was completely different with only a few things so I prepared and bought two big bags of candy she could eat but we didnt need it. I love halloween this year! It was so nice that she could eat everything almost just like the other kids.

It's better for us too, although it's still early here and daughter hasn't gone out yet. She has additional allergies. I am glad they took the soy out of Skittles and Starburst. And I'm glad to know that the modified food starch in Dots and other candies is made of corn. She still can't eat the chocolate though.

Im sorry she cant eat chocolate. We avoid dairy and soy for the most part but she doesnt have an allergy to them. We just limit them. My sister is in the same boat for intolerances and she also had jujyfruits and dum dum suckers which was a big part of our candies that she got tonight.

I hope you have a wonderful time :)

I went trick'r treating with a friend and her two little boys. Hubby was pushing Lukas in the stroller. It was my first Halloween trick or treating, cause we don't have it in Europe. Well the "islanders" have it, but we don't... lol. There was a three musketeers. So I thought, great, I can have it. So I ate it, but then I realized, it didn't taste like the normal three musketeers at all. It tasted kind of minty. Then I thought, it might be good for us celiacs still. But now I have a headache. Does anybody know, if there is gluten in a three musketeers that tastes like mint???

Stef,

Yes, there is a new Mint Three Musketeers with dark chocolate. I had one 3 or 4 days ago. I read the ingredients and they appeared to be okay and I have not had any noticeable problems from it. I actually thought it was pretty good and am normallly not a 3M fan!!!!

      Hey Julie! I was in a similar situation before my biopsy and my gastro said Tylenol was fine. Just avoid ibuprofen or anything anti-inflammatory until you're cleared. Hope your surgery goes smoothly!

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.
