I was at a fantastic farmers' market. I was weak. I should have known better when she told me it "flushes" gluten from the body. I should have known better because that cr*p looks just like WHEAT!

*sigh*

PS--If you eat emmer and believe it to be gluten-free and experience no difficulty, I am thrilled for you. I wish I had not and won't again as I am already starting to swell. :(

What is emmer? I have never heard of it before.

Yup, it's a form of wheat. Also stay away from einkorn, kamut, and spelt, all forms of wheat. Feel better soon, and at least you gained knowledge and experience from your misfortune. ;)

What a crappy way to gain knowledge! :( BUT, now we all know not to try it! Thank you.

AM update--

Oh yeah, emmer has gluten! I have my classic celiac face back this morning and other things I will leave unsaid.

mini pity party ahead-I've got to fly my post-op husband back across the country on Wednesday with our three kids in tow. Please pray that my digestive "issues" are settled down by then. I have real difficulty coping when I am glutened and get angry really easily. :(

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      By RMJ · Posted

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
