If you have intestinal damage or irritation, it may take some time for you to heal. All foods, can be an irritating, regardless of it's gluten free status.

Many people here do have additional food intolerance's. But, I would make sure you have removed the gluten for some some before you try other things. Gluten has a very loud voice. One you eliminate gluten other voices can be heard.

OH... and welcome.

Ditto to the above advice.

What else are you using to make the gravy?

You might want to try to eat "simple" foods at first. Starches, sugars, grains, etc. are pretty hard to digest for a sick digestion system.

BTW I get very sick from corn starch too. I don't do any grains right now. I hope in a while to introduce them very very slowly.

Check the bouillon cubes--some contain gluten. We use Bovril bouillon powder.

      confirmed via biopsy, quite depressed

      Welcome to the forum, @wellthatsfun! Count your blessings that you were diagnosed so young.  Your boyfriend sounds like a keeper!  Some of us old farts went undiagnosed for a long time and we're a bit more life worn, but there's a wealth of wisdom here.   Do know that many people go through a period of grief after diagnosis that's normal.  Look into the five stages of grief.  You'll adjust, but for now, venting is understandable.    Sending {{{hugs}}}

      It's on this site.  Click in my name.  Look for the pull down menu that says "Activities" and chose "blog".  Oh, there's the link!     You can send personal messages through this site, too, if you like.

      It's part of the malabsorption that occurs with Celiac Disease.  Yes, I lost weight, too.  We can use up our B vitamins quickly when we're ill.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost.  Supplementing can help ensure we're getting the essential vitamins and minerals our body needs to function well.  Many vitamins can be low in the newly diagnosed.  Vitamin D can also be low.  Minerals like iron and magnesium can be low, too.  You'll feel better once you restore the nutrients.

      Thank-you I will ask the doctor about this.  This is all new to me I'm feeling ill every day and losing weight is this part of coeliac?
