Better Yet Still Feel Worse

I've been reading your responses about avoiding dairy. I'm trying to avoid as well but wondered does mozzarella cheese count as a hard cheese? What do you use for lasagnas.

I can't imagine a lasagna without cheese... I feel like I'm cutting out all the pleasures of food....

even though I've found the alternatives sometimes taste better than the gluten-filled stuff.

What kind of cheese is safe?

I just wanted to comment on the lasagna with out cheese. I am a lasagna freak, let me tell you! I made lasagna with turkey in the sauce and put a little drizzle of egg where I used to put the cheese, and it was really good. Definately a lot more saucey and more pasta than normal, but still really good. Give a try, you might be suprised.

I did find soy cheese or rice cheese to work quite well as a substitute.

I also went for my ultrasound today; I'm not sure when I'll get the results since it really depends on when my doctor decides to call.

Since the last time I posted, I guess I've been doing okay with minimizing the amount of dairy I consume with the products I've mentioned above. I just keep getting pain now on the lower half of my gut but I figure that to be cross contamination since my house isn't entirely gluten-free.

I don't know what else it could be..

      I hope you all had a nice weekend. Cloudy here in Hampshire. Just a little update that might help someone else one day. Over the weekend, I realised that the brand of almond milk I had been buying contains added iodine. So, I visited the supermarket and chose a different brand (Plenish) that does not contain added iodine and have been drinking that since Saturday. No itching at all yesterday! Another breakthrough (thank you @knitty kitty). I think the added iodine milk may have been what was causing that last 10% itch.  I also met a friend for coffee in town yesterday. The cafe only had soya milk (which I have not been sure I am OK with) but I had 2 delicious latte's made with soya milk. I also had a gluten-free millionaire's shortbread. I am beginning to enjoy the taste of almond and soya milk a lot more than cows milk now.  I seem to be fine with a little sprinkle of cheddar cheese on my jacket potato. I bake them in my air fryer and have them with a big mixed salad and baked beans. I also made a gluten-free tuna pasta bake on Saturday; it's my son's favourite dish. I was  fine with that, too but have noticed that a whole can of tuna sets me off itching.  It is a learning curve. My dermatology appointment is tomorow and I will come back to update. Have a good week everyone.

      Thanks for posting this. I hadn't come across the Alchemist before. Great site!

      Psyllium can't sit for more than a minute in the water or it is like drinking sludge. Swallowed fairly soon means it's more like an flavorless undermixed protein smoothie. Chlorophyll ( or two tbsp) really helps the taste, makes it minty. Taking Psyllium and Chlorophyll separately rather than together at first helps determine if there's intolerance to either. Also starting the Psyllium in small doses, starting with 1/2 to 1 teaspoon to tolerate the fiber change.

      BuddhaBar, I came across this thread while searching online for celiac insomnia (having also scared myself stupid by finding out about fatal insomnia) and it did bring me some piece of mind as it so closely matches my own experience. I know this thread is old now, I hope you're doing well, and thanks for posting your experience.

      That's great news, @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour.  And you might find that if you do have asthma, keeping your reflux under control may help, if my experience is anything to go by.
