Okay, I have a biopsy scheduled for Friday and on Saturday I'm starting my gluten free diet...at the end of the month I am going to a colege football game and will be taking part in the pregame tailgating party. Obviously I will need to bring my own food to such an event but does anyone have any suggestios of something I can take and wash down with some delicious gluten free beer?

Hot dogs, brats, chicken sausage, burgers or chicken breast wrapped in foil and grilled. *Most* brands are gluten-free, but you obviously have to check to be sure. Oscar Meyer is gluten-free (they're owned by Kraft) and so are most Johnsonville brats. Use foil so you don't have to worry about CC from everyone else's food and the charcoal. I usually do a chicken sausage and eat it right out of the foil, a bottle of ketchup handy to put a bit on each bite. It's easier than sitting down with plate to eat a grilled chicken breast.

Corn still in the cob is good and baked potatoes (also in foil), although they take a long time to bake so I microwave them until they're nearly cooked and then grill.

What do you usually have at a tailgate? I try to eat pretty much the same thing I used to eat with slight modifications.

I usually eat the basics...Brats and Hot Dogs...maybe a burger. Thanks for the cooking in foil tip! I didn't even think of that. I'm not to big on ketchup or any type of sauces so I should be okay there. I didn't know oscar meyer hot dogs were gluten free...that's good to know! Thanks for the tips!

I just tried it for the first time the other day. It's not the same but I didn't mind it. I thought It kinof tasted like a micro brew. I love beer. It's going to be the hardest to give up.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      Unless gluten exposure is happening on a regular basis, it is doubtful that blood antibodies would show up elevated in testing. It takes time for them to build up to detectable levels.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      HI Nancy, In your first post, you said that you were diagnosed by biopsy and blood test - this is what I was referring to: the blood test is for antibodies that are made during active disease. After a period on a strictly gluten-free diet, the antibodies return to low level. It is a good way of checking for accidental exposure if symptoms persist. If...

      I'm not saying this is what you have, but your description reminds me of Morgellons, which are not very well understood. Here is a review from a reputable source. If it seems similar to your experience, you could raise this question with your Dr. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/morgellons-disease

      Hi Trent, no dairy. Other than good quality butter. I have been lactose free for years. No corn, sugar, even seasonings and spices. I don't eat out. I cook my own food.

After a period on a strictly gluten-free diet, the antibodies return to low level. It is a good way of checking for accidental exposure if symptoms persist. If you are reacting to foods that don't contain gluten, you may be reacting to something else. Alternatively, a condition called SIBO is common in people with coeliac disease, where there is an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine. This can be tested for with a simple breath test. The main treatment is with a course of antibiotic. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)

      @nancydrewandtheceliacclue, are you consuming dairy? Not sure if dairy is part of the carnivore diet.
