Going Casein-free

I'm already about 75% dairy free from my lactose problems, but now I'm going completely CF for a week or two to see if I feel better. I am starting to feel sick again- headaches, and I still have that stomach bug (but I can keep fluids down OK now and I'm not dehydrated, but I will be seeing the doc tomorrow).

I'm starting to feel a bit like I did pre DX. My knees and hips are sore, my hair is falling out really easily and I'm exhausted. So out goes the casein. I'm also soy-lite: no soymilk or tofu or anything fried in soybean oil, although I do still eat foods with soy lechitin. If going CF doesn't help after a few days, I'll try completely soy free too. I could also stand to eat a little healthier than I have been.

But do I need to be as careful about casein as I am with gluten? Should I be worried about CC?

Thanks everyone for your advice

I have found that being as careful with casein as I am with gluten makes a difference. I've been 90% dairy-free since August and 100% since October. When I do get a little bit of dairy I know immediately - my sinuses flare up, I bloat and feel cranky for several days. It's almost like a gluten reaction to me, but not as bad.

Have you kept a food/symptom journal to see if there may be other offending foods?

      Could my infant son have been glutened? Hear me out.

      By trents · Posted

      Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition with a genetic base. The the potential for developing the disease is inherited. but remains latent until triggered by some stress event. Thus, there is an epigenetic component to celiac disease. Once the genes are awakened from dormancy, celiac reactions are triggered by the ingestion of gluten.

      Newbie possible glutening help

      By Beeroney · Posted

      Hi all, just ticked over into my first year gluten-free after being diagnosed last October and feeling a bit rough after a possible glutening. Diagnosed at the ripe age of 38, never been ill in my life before this so safe to say my health anxiety is now borderline unmanageable. I think I may have been glutened a week ago, since then I’ve had that familiar hot/burning feeling in my gut, gas, bloating and all the Bristol Stool chart types in one sitting. I know people are different but does this sound familiar to anyone? Stomach was churning like mad last weekend like it did when I first ill before diagnosis. Acid reflux(which was my first symptom way back when) also reared its ugly head, which I probably the worst symptoms imo. Anxiety is probably up more so as I’m leaving on holiday to USA in 3 weeks time, which would be pretty much ruined if my guts are still messed by the time we leave.  Any words of wisdom appreciated    Bryan

      This doesn't answer your question but I'm not sure if you know that this intolerance is passed down from mother to child through Cord blood and or breast milk.

      I’m having this type of MRI this afternoon,  What specifically do you want to know?  From what I’ve read, not all facilities use the same drink prep.

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄
