I just got back from a celiac friend's party. There were only three things there that had gluten- cookies, nacho cheese doritos, and pretzels. So obviously I was really excited bc I could eat everything else! except for the fact that the cheese doritos were right next to the ranch doritos (which are safe) and I reached into the wrong bowl and took a bite...whoopsies! heh, my stomach's not thrilled right now. But that didnt stop me from enjoying some glutino chocolate cake! :-) my reactions haven't been as bad lately but I'm worried that it's bc they've been more frequent :-/ major CC issues at home w/ family members who don't get it. but once my mom's celiac panel comes back positive (which I'm all but certain it will) I want the whole house to go gluten-free!

Sorry you glutened yourself. I hate that... I reached for the wrong tea 3 days ago and ended up dosing myself as well (Celestial seasonings Xmas tea, grrr). Day 3 post gluten and I am finally getting better. The tea has been tossed and I made my hubby deal with the new rule that all things in that cabinet are now gluten-free or they go in the trash! At the very least, ask your mom to give you one cabinet just for your stuff so you always have something safe to reach for without thinking about it...

I am working towards making our whole home gluten-free as well, and I think we will all be healtheir for it. As soon as the last of the Spelt flour is gone, then no more gluten flour at all! Hope we both feel better soon!

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
