I get sores from dairy, usually on my face or back. Usually it's cumulative over time or depending on what form and how much. For example, if I have a certain quantity of cream or milk I'll get a sore the next day but if I have only cheese but often in a week and including softer cheeses like mozzarella and softer cheddar, jack etc., not just parmesan, then I may break out at the end of the week.

Usually I break out within 10 minutes of having some sort of hidden gluten.

There are times when it's been a day or two and not sure why there is a difference other than the type of accident.

good luck

I'm wondering maybe the jelly beans. I know if I eat too many candies with citric acid, I will get blisters in my throat. I know they can be so frustrating, but a sign of some kind of allergy. I hope that you figure it out. Wendy

Hello,

I had an unexplained all over, very itchy rash 6 days after a day of vomiting - could this be allergy related? Are the two events likely to be related? I don't know what hives are - are they itchy and does it matter where they are? I was on holiday at my moms and she was having major work done in the kitchen so it was difficult to cook and make sure stuff wasn't contaminated. The family seemed to think it was a nervous rash, but that has never happened to me before.

Thank you for any help!

hi. i was going through alot of what you are currently going through. finally, my brain made a connection. i would eat gluten-free stuff that my celiac friends had no problem with, but it caused a gluten like reaction for me. started me thinking perhaps i had other food allergies.

so, i went on a food elimination diet. no dairy, gluten (obviously!), eggs, fruit that you eat more than once a week, chocolate, sugar. eat only food that is in it's natural state, no preservatives. for me, at 3 days on this diet, i was completely cured of my rashes, itching, horribly painful stomach, running nose and watery/itchy eyes.

i'm adding in food slowly (pretty much screwed up the first weeks, but now i'm doing it right). so far, bad reaction to eggs. dairy is fine (thank goodness). chocolate is a problem (ate chocolate without soy lecithan - lindt 70% cocoa is one that you can usually find pretty easy). going to try apples next, i think.

it is a slow process, but well worth it.

Thanks for replying. The idea of going on an even stricter diet is very depressing and I don't think I can cope at the moment. The rash only happened at my mom's house so I'm hoping that it won't happen again here. Since reading this thread I found another about paint and realised that my step father had been painting the kitchen over the weekend and that I came out in the all over rash the next day - could breathing paint do it? The smell was pretty foul.

you could certainly be reacting to something in the paint fumes, a chemical reaction. this makes even more sense if you have problems walking down the cleaning products aisle at store...makes you feel ill because of the smells.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By trents · Posted

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By Sarah Grace · Posted

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.
