Gluten Free Cream?

This is the third time in a week I have been sick from cream. The first time was at my boyfriends house when his mum made carbonara and used cooking cream. I didn't realise it had thickener 1442 in it and later paid the price for not being more diligent.

On sunday I was naughty and ate boston icing from my work - I thought it was gluten free, and then later that night ate a dish that had cream in it, this time using bulla which had no thickener in it. Again I paid the price, and thought it must have been the icing as cream is naturally gluten free right?

However tonight I ate what was labelled as gluten free satay sauce, and tucked into that but I am starting to get all those symptoms of eating gluten. I'm thinking that the satay sauce had cream in it - in which case - why can I not eat cream?? I drink lots of milk and eat cheese so I can't also have dairy problems, but I didn't think that cream had gluten in it??

It's been so long since I have felt this crappy and I am so mad at myself for putting myself through this again! I have been diagnosed with coeliacs for just two months so I am still learning all the ropes.

Anyone have any ideas whats wrong with my body?? And know anything I can take to help the pains???

:(

Are you sure you're not getting glutened by something else? I mean, cross-contamination, from some other food, or skin/hair care products, cast irons pans, wooden cutting boards, etc.

Hi! Thanks for replying so soon. Nothing in the last week has changed - ie I still use the same shampoo and beauty products, and on sunday my dad made a completely gluten free meal for us all, so I doubt that there was any cross contamination. Nothing was any different to any other week. It's food for thought though and something I need to address. I just can't understand why at all times it has been a creamy dish that has made me sick, yet I can have milk. Is cream any different to milk? I also eat yoghurt and have no trouble with that!

A lot of time with celiac the damaged villi can't handle the large milk globules for a while if ever. The cream probably has even larger molecules. For myself I only can handle eating nonfat sugar free yogurt for the same reason...the fatty kinds get me. At least you thankfully can eat more milk products so perhaps you can think of other alternatives to replace the cream...

Meanwhile using marshmallow root caps regularly will help reduce inflammation of your villi...

      In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      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--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:
