I knew that the Lactaid Milk was safe to drink because I had called and asked them. However, I forgot to ask about the lactaid cottage cheese. Does anyone know if it is gluten free?

I also had this question because I bought some Lactaid milk because I had some great coupons but I felt really bad when I drank it. I was newly diagnosed so I'm really particular about what I'm eating. I usually drink Soy Silk milk but since I knew Celiacs can have dairy and I thought I was just lactose intolerant. But I'm having some issues with this milk. I thought it might have been something else and so I kept trying it with just Rice Chex cereal but continually had a migraine- severe stomach pains- etc. Has anyone every had this problem?

Hi Marlyn,

I've been gluten free for nine weeks now & it seems that all dairy products bother me. I'm having painful bloating & acid reflux & it seems that dairy makes it worse. I think it's the protein in the milk not the lactose that's hard for my damaged intestines to digest. :(

But from what I've read on this forum, it does get better with time. I'm hoping I'll be able to drink milk again once my stomach is healed. It might take months...

I did try the Rice Chex cereal with regular milk about a month ago. I had very bad bloating with it. I just wonder if my stomach is so sensitive right now & the milk probably bloated me too. So, I've been just eating rice, eggs & ham for breakfast these days. I did cut out dairy for a while again.

Boy, do I miss my milk & cereal! What a bummer!

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding

      I think I found a huge culprit for severe reactions to create worsening of my c symptoms. Do people with celiac have sensitivity and /or have opposite reaction to certain medications Where can I find a list ?  I'm new here I'm.wondering why I am getting worse when I take certain medicine...the burning feet.  Rebound muscle pain so intense  How many people get opposite effects or have a horrible attack after these meds

      Does anyone know if that includes scrambled eggs and healthy smart butter (,gluten free) I add a very tiny amount of margarine less than a teaspoon.  I did no't have any bread    It just seems like no matter what I eat my stomach and nerves over fire and here comes a host of horrible symptoms. My lower abdomen feels horrible, my right leg thigh muscle.. very odd. Jaw pain. Burning feet , joint pain , you name it  The anxiety just creeps up into brain fog. I don't think I could explain this to anyone who is unfamiliar.  Also,  I most likely will not remember posting this until I check it.  This is highly unusual for me because I have an excellent memory.  One weekend before I knew anything about celiac I lost an entire weekend from severe brain fog, confusion, pain, etc.  I honestly thought I was losing my mind. When I think back I recall eating a lot of PBJ sandwiches and turkey sandwiches.  Once again did not know about gluten.  I was just too sick to cook. Do people fast during attacks ?? It seems horrible to keep going through this. I hope I'm not causing my own problems... I wonder if I should fast because I'm not eating gluten .  Chicken ,  scrambled eggs no milk , canned carrots,  gluten free low sugar low fat Greek yogurt which I already posted about 😞 Any suggestions I am open... I am bedridden when this happens to me.  Thank you Celiac community. 🙏🏻❤️

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…
