If you have a local ethnic or Asian market, you may find millet flour there, often labeled as Bajri flour. You can also use sorghum flour, which in Asian stores may be labeled as Jowar, Juwar, or Juvar.

Arrowhead Mills makes millet flour, which you should be able to find at most health food stores. It is also sold Open Original Shared Link.

My favorite online store for flour is Open Original Shared Link. They also have a good price on both xanthan and guar gum.

I have not been able to find millet flour here either (Vancouver, Canada). I sub quinoa flour for millet flour, which I can easily find.

You can grind millet in a coffee grinder! It works quite well, but does take longer than opening a package of millet flour. :rolleyes:

I just read to store millet in the fridge, use in 2 months, can become bitter and rancid if not used quickly. From "Cooking Free"

Wonka,

I live in Vancouver too, and I buy my millet flour at Choices, Capers or Save-on-foods (in the natural section). I bought some before at Famous foods, but I think I got glutened. I don't think they are so good at separating their flours.

The kind I buy at the other places is packaged by Westpoint Naturals and Bob's Red Mill, both of which I've never had a problem with, and I'm quite sensitive.

The only thing I'm looking for in Vancouver now is extra-fine-grind Brown rice flour! Does anybody have any ideas?

I haven't checked out Capers but the Choices near me doesn't have millet flour (they may have it on their bulk shelf but I won't buy anything from there as they don't package them in a designated area). I've been resistant to buying the flours packaged at Capers because Westpoint Naturals isn't a designated facility either (I called and asked). I do trust Bob's Red Mill so I'll keep my out for it.

Have you tried the brown rice flour that Panne Rizo sells? I don't know if it is ground as fine as you like (I don't use it that often) but their products are very good and it's the flour that they use.

Hi Wonka,

Sorry, I didn't notice your reply! I haven't tried Panne Rizo's brown rice flour. Do you like it? I ended up buying the super fine one Annalise Roberts suggests when I went to visit my brother in LA. good but expensive!

About Westpoint Naturals, they are extremely good at keeping allergens segregated. I am super sensitive (have to have a gluten free home), and I buy their products all the time without any problems. Just wanted to let you know because I use their products a lot!

Bye for now!

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice.

      What are Celiac Disease Symptoms?

      In addition to gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea, I had gastroesophageal reflux that was becoming intolerable despite treatment with PPIs and antacids. When I went gluten-free, the GERD lessened tremendously (as did the other symptoms).

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      Thank you so very much Scott. Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful. If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for.

      My only proof

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry.

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice. Additionally, getting the right amount of protein for my body weight helped significantly in my body's healing process ... along with supplementing with enough of all the vitamins and minerals ... especially Zinc and Magnesium. I went from 70kg to 82kg in a year. Protein with each meal 3 times daily, especially eggs at breakfast made the difference. I'm not sure whether iodine was a problem for me, but I can tolerate iodine no problem now. I'm off Dapsone and feel great. Not a sign of an itch. So there is hope. I'm not advocating for the use of Dapsone, but it can bring a huge amount of relief despite it's effect on red blood cells. The itch is so distracting and debilitating. I tried many times to get off it, it wasn't until I implemented the changes above and was consistent that I got off it. Dermatitis Herpetiformis is horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisone treatment for inflammation?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.
