Could It Be Diary After All

Hi all, having pretty good success at 3 1/2 months trying to be gluten free but have issues at least once a week. I've always thought myself not to be diary intolerant because I read that dairy reactions happen within 30 minutes to 2 hours later. I typically don't have the big D until the morning so figured it was cc or hidden gluten. I did notice the other day that about an hour and a half after eating some slicedhormel ham rolled with cream cheese , I got very gassy. Also last night I made buffalo wings with franks hot original and 1/3 cup of butter and was gassy a couple hours later but it could have been from the spicyness of the meal. Just a little confused. Can dairy wait longer to show up as an intolerance? Thanks

Just like gluten, dairy intolerance can have delayed reactions. In fact, in some cases, you don't get a reaction until a couple of days later.

So, it absolutely could be the dairy that is causing the problem. It would be worth it to completely eliminate dairy from your diet to see if it helps. And give it a good two weeks at least.

Thanks Ursa, I really don't care about milk (never liked it) but I do absolutely love cheese but I agree that it would be worth a try to see if removing dairy makes a difference. My coffee creamer says lactose, dairy & gluten free but it does have sodium caseinate so I'm guessing its off limits? Gluten was extremely hard to give up in the beginning but I know if I have to give up dairy it shouldn't be as hard since cheese is really the only dairy that I care about.

Hi

I have been hanging out on the specific carbohydrate diet thread, and have just decided to try dairy free to see if that will keep me off the slippery slope to D.

In light of your question about how long to see symptoms, I am wondering about symptoms of casein intolerance vs. lactose intolerance. I realize that one is an intolerance to protein and the other to sugar, but I have little idea how casein intolernace is manifested. Can anyone tell me?

      Thank you for your response! I have considered starting a food diary in the past, I suppose this is as good a time as any to start.

      I don't have health insurance so I have never had any testing done. I always thought if I stay away from gluten Ill be fine but I suppose that isn't enough anymore. I will look into getting an allergy test. Thank you for your input!

      I remember reading an article summarizing testing done by Gluten Free Watchdog on several brands of dried lentils. They were all heavily cross contaminated with wheat and the commentary was to the effect that dried lentils in general were the most heavily cross contaminated product category in their testing data base. So, I would definitely not use any dried lentil product that was not tested to be Gluten Free (<20ppm of gluten) or Certified Gluten Free (<10ppm of gluten).

      While spices, lentils, beans and chickpeas are naturally gluten-free, the main concern with any brand is cross-contamination during processing and packaging. Since Suraj doesn't appear to certify their products as gluten-free or use dedicated gluten-free facilities, there is some risk of trace gluten exposure, especially with their corn flour which could be milled on shared equipment with gluten-containing grains. For absolute safety, I'd recommend looking for brands that are certified gluten-free by organizations like GFCO - good options include McCormick for spices, TruRoots or Bob's Red Mill for lentils and beans, and Anthony's for corn flour. That said, if you need to use Suraj products, be sure to carefully check labels for any wheat warnings, thoroughly rinse lentils and beans before cooking, and consider contacting the manufacturer directly to ask about their gluten testing protocols. Many in our community have found that investing in certified gluten-free brands gives them greater peace of mind and helps avoid accidental gluten exposure, especially for higher-risk items like flours.

      Dapsone, commonly prescribed for dermatitis herpetiformis (the itchy gluten-related skin condition), comes with several potential side effects that patients should monitor. The most frequent issues include blood-related problems like hemolytic anemia (especially in those with G6PD deficiency, which is more common in certain ethnic groups) and methemoglobinemia that can cause fatigue, shortness of breath, or bluish skin. Many patients also experience headaches, nausea, dizziness, or skin sensitivity to sunlight. While these effects are often manageable, there are rare but serious risks including dapsone hypersensitivity syndrome (with fever, rash and organ inflammation), liver problems, or severe anemia that require immediate medical attention. That's why doctors typically monitor blood counts and liver enzymes regularly during treatment. A crucial tip: proton pump inhibitors like omeprazole can interfere with dapsone's effectiveness, so discuss all medications with your doctor. If you develop fever, unexplained fatigue, yellowing skin/eyes, or a spreading rash while on dapsone, stop taking it and contact your healthcare provider right away. For celiac patients specifically, remember that strict gluten-free eating may eventually reduce or eliminate the need for dapsone to control dermatitis herpetiformis symptoms over time.
