Are you diagnosed as a Celiac? If you are, you need to stay 100% gluten free. Even if you didn't feel bad, it is still doing damage if you have Celiac.

If you are positive you only have a gluten intolerance, and NOT celiac...then I guess maybe gluten doesn't bother you as much as you think it does? Be careful though because it takes some people a few days to get really sick.

-Absence of symptoms is not the same thing as absence of reaction. One does not need to feel it for gluten to be doing his/her body harm.

-Celiac symptoms can change over time

-If one goes "Gluten-lite" it can take a while before the immune system reaches its tipping point and causes a reaction that you can feel.

-In some people, the reaction is delayed by days.

There are many EASY gluten-free pizza recipes. Take your favorite sauce and mozzarella and use it to top gluten-free toast. stick it under the broiler for about a minute, and you have pizza! You can also use corn tortillas--doesn't taste exactly like pizza crust, but my gluten-eating kids and their friends scarf it down anyway.

I have posted my pizza crust recipe several times--it should be floating around here somewhere. PM me if you can't find it and I'll send it to you. It's easy, it takes 30 minutes start to finish (hey, that's how long it takes to order out!), and it tastes just like a good Bisquick-type pizza crust (I used to make Bisquick crusts all the time before going off gluten).

no, i haven't been diagnosed as a celiac. i have a gluten allergy and have an appt for an endoscopy in 2 weeks to see if i do. i went off gluten for a month and felt great; stomach and my skin cleared up.

he told me he wants me to eat gluten but when i eat things with gluten i generally get hugely bloated and covered in itchy hives. i had pizza and i didn't. thats why i was so surprised.

This might be misleading--it is possible to be gluten intolerant and not officially celiac simply because the gluten intolerance has not YET destroyed enough villi in the intestine to give an undeniable diagnosis of celiac--YET. By that line of thinking, gluten intolerance may be early-stage celiac. If so, do you really want to keep eating it until you HAVE destroyed the lining of your intestines?

By saying that someone is "only" gluten intolerant and not celiac, you are perpetuating the myth that gluten intolerance is somehow not as destructive, not as dangerous, not as serious--and then people with "only" gluten intolerance and people with celiac, diagnosed or undiagnosed, might not be taken seriously.

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
