Are these ok? I had some lettuce from one added my own cucember and used same dressing I have bee using on other items other than salad and never got ill. I got the tummy pain big time, but i dont feel "sick" as i always do when iam glutened. Could the salad be cross contaminated at the facility? I thought these would be safe. Something got me.

It should be ok, but there's always a risk of contamination when we eat anything we didn't grow in our own back yard. There are other things besides gluten which lettuce is more likely to be contaminated with -- anything from pesticides to e. coli. However, going without salad isn't healthy, either. So probably the best you can do is make sure you wash it, and if you repeatedly get sick from a certain brand or ingredient, eliminate it.

Oh -- and always check the label on anything pre-packaged. You never know when some nutcase sitting in an office somewhere will decide to add flour to something. I've never heard of it with salad, but I've been surprised with other products now and then.

      Thank you that’s really helpful, hopeful won’t have to have a biopsy.

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
