<_< Gluten free for 5 years, I guess when you haven't had any issues for months and months you get a little cocky and you go ahead and have the Trop 50 orange juice, even though it says natural ingredients, because, you're so sure it is fine. And you get sick, on Mothers Day, so sick that EVERY thing you eat leaves you. And you ache, and you burp and pass gas and you're so tired and YES, this is what it's like being glutened..It's so bad, you know you have to call in sick tomorrow. All because you ignored "natural flavors" and then you google and find out only their 100% juices are gluten free and you look at the carton and it is 42% juice. All I am saying, is do not relax your guard, even after 5 years. Please, learn by my mistakes and enjoy your holidays.

Man are you right.. I wish I would have read this 48 hours ago. I got glutened from Frito Lay's Mixed Nuts it had an allergy warning label on it for peanuts. So I figured what the heck, if they were produced on the same lines as wheat, they would have put that on the label too. Boy did I pay the price, it's ALWAYS better to be safe than sorry. Luckily, since it was only CC, the reaction was not that bad.

      Probably celiac but also confused

      Update: I got a call on Monday from the GI doctor's office, they had a cancellation and an appointment opened up for Tuesday. Not much time to prepare, but I went ahead and did it anyway. I haven't been gluten free at any point, but I haven't really loaded up as much as was recommended, either. It takes another 6-8 weeks to get the results, so I'd rather...

      Gluten Sensitivity

      Welcome to the forum, @rjane! Making gluten free bread from scratch that both tastes good and holds together is a real challenge. There are some pretty good commercially made choices in the stores these days. Once the big food companies figured out there were enough of us out there for them to generate a profit, they went to work developing some good...

      Toddler recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes and need help understanding coeliac screening test results

      Welcome to the forum, @mytype1diabetes, Your statement that your daughter has become itchy and has hair loss made me think of iron deficiency. Those were the same symptoms i had when I was iron deficient. Was she tested for iron deficiency anemia at the time of her diabetes diagnosis? Seems in the early stages of iron deficiency anemia, blood...

I haven't been gluten free at any point, but I haven't really loaded up as much as was recommended, either. It takes another 6-8 weeks to get the results, so I'd rather get it done now. I just hope it will be enough and I won't have to try again and delay it even longer. Thanks for the recommendations and thoughtful responses, much appreciated. I will be following up with my GP soon to check for nutritional deficiencies while I'm waiting on the test results.

      Welcome to the forum, @rjane! Making gluten free bread from scratch that both tastes good and holds together is a real challenge. There are some pretty good commercially made choices in the stores these days. Once the big food companies figured out there were enough of us out there for them to generate a profit, they went to work developing some good recipes that are hard to emulate at home. However, the commercially made breads are expensive! One thing to to realize is that gluten free flours often contain ingredients that are hard to digest (polysaccharides) and can cause gas, bloating and the runs. Things like xanthan gum and gar gum that are used as texturing agents. The other thing to understand is that your hubby may have developed intolerance to foods in addition to those that contain gluten. This is common among celiacs and especially in the early stages of recovery. The most common offenders are dairy, oats (even gluten free oats), soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the most prevalent offenders. So, you might experiment with eliminating some of these things. As healing of the villous lining of the small bowel progresses, secondary food intolerances can disappear but full healing can take two years or longer for older adults.

      Welcome to the forum, @mytype1diabetes, Your statement that your daughter has become itchy and has hair loss made me think of iron deficiency.  Those were the same symptoms i had when I was iron deficient.  Was she tested for iron deficiency anemia at the time of her diabetes diagnosis?   Seems in the early stages of iron deficiency anemia, blood glucose levels can be falsely elevated.  Treating Vitamin D deficiency can also help immensely.  Vitamin D deficiency, iron deficiency, and deficiencies in the eight B vitamins, especially thiamine, can occur in Celiac disease.  Changes in stool can be caused by iron or thiamine deficiency. I was diagnosed with type two diabetes and had the same deficiencies.  I would not feel comfortable waiting three to six months for a recheck.  I would get the iron deficiency checked right away.   Hope this helps!  Sending prayers!
