Does anyone know if it is gluten free?

The best person to ask is going to be the pharmacist. If they are busy or you want to check yourself the drug will come with a sheet which gives contact numbers for the company that makes it. You can call the company themselves. If this is a generic form of this drug you should double check on each refill as the binders can change at will on generics.

I did call the pharmacist today and he told me that it was gluten free. I was given the generic form.

I will try taking it tonight. All this because I pulled a back muscle sneezing. It ended up messing up more muscles from coughing too. Leave it to me to have something weird like that happen to me.

You too? I turned my head so I wouldn't sneeze on the heater back when I was 13 a y/o kid. I'm now 34, I can still turn my head a certain way and screw up my neck- shoulder area for days. It sucks!! :angry:

I couldn't believe that I did it. Of course my sinuse have been draining to add to the aggravation, so coughing doesn't help the healing process. My doctor even said he did it before.

add me to the list of pulled muscles when coughing!

I don't get coughs very often but when I do it's quite harsh. this time I just pulled a muscle in my back but years ago I coughed so bad I did something to my ribs and couldn't stand straight for 2 days until I saw a Chiro.

thanks for confirming about the methocarbamol

You are most welcome. Now if I can only stop the coughing so the muscle can heal. I am getting the most relief from my heated car seat. I thought it was an odd feature for cloth seats, but just happened to be on the one I bought. I love this feature. :):lol:

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
