I have posted before that I have been sick for over a month and a half. Well, on 6/27 I decided I had enough with my roomate. I had this feeling she had been tampering with my food. And all she did was play head games, I never knew what kind of mood she was in, etc. Anyway, I moved, no notice nothing, I was sick of being sick and couldnt trust anyone. Well, my body has been healing and I am normal again! One week away from that crazy woman and I am doing so much better. No more D! Yay it is so nice to have a normal bowel movent =) So, always trust your instincts!

What an awful thing! I had a roommate from hell once too....decided I would rather live in a rat hole (if it was all I could afford) than risk another roomie.

Hope you are in a safe place now.

How awful, she must have purposely glutened you! I am glad you are starting to feel better. Good for you to pack up and leave.

I know she was glutening me, she is lucky I never caught her red handed. Yup I packed up and left in less than 12 hours, I was done. Always lies and games, I couldnt stand it anymore. I was afraid to leave my food in the fridge fearing that she was tampering with it. She knew how much it made me sick and when she saw me running to the bathroom she would always say, not feeling good? I knew she was doing this and again she is very lucky I never caught her.

I found an older woman to rent with and she understands my allergy and actually wants to go on the gluten-free diet. She has a lot of questions and she also wont let anyone else have kitchen privs =) Right now I am at my moms house and she is already noticing how much better I feel

I hear you. I have had to drop getting back with my ex boyfriend for the same reason. He thinks its all in my head. He drinks whiskey and says he brushes his teeth but doesn't always. I just am getting over being ill from CC due to having kissed him. Its now two days downtime as a result. Basically ruined my 4th of July weekend. Migraine, gum boils, achey neck and joints. Reminds me of the old vampire myths...No more Greggie! Fortunately I didn't move in with him or eat anything except what I brought and prepared; just stayed overnight and kissed the beastie.

What goes around comes around. I have a sneaking suspicion the universe has a way with catching up with people like this. I'm glad you are rid of her. You know that expression about when you break up with someone? Looking good is the best revenge. In your case, it's feeling good that's the best revenge. ;)

The woman was very jealous of the relationship I had with her Mom. And I should have known better, but I didnt have any problems let alone know I had Celiac when I moved in with her. Yup and you are all correct, what goes around, comes around. Some people just dont understand that you should always treat others how you want to be treated. I too could slap her now that I am getting better and my suspicions were correct.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
