Did you check to see what brand of bacon? Here's a link to a thread on gluten-free bacon.

I LOVE Oscar Meyer Center Cut and Boar's Head.

Did they cook anything else in the pan? I'm sorry you got sick :(

Initially it's very hard to get your head around the idea that some things that you "know" don't have gluten, actually DO have gluten; things like bacon, ham, marmalade, stock, spices, it just boggles the mind really to know that you have to look at ALL labels because they sneak it in everywhere. :(

I think it's possible, at least speaking of all my health problems one of my symptoms is bloated face... which have been going down. Morning before I took the ACT over the summer all I could eat for breafast was 3 slices of bacon and a apple. All seem okay for a while, though then my face became really bloated, greasy, and concentration during the test was very difficult. I no longer plan to eat that much bacon before a test ( definately will make sure it's gluten free), nor in the morning. It was really horrible ( I'm sure the apple and bacon also was a good feast for my candida).

Bacon, at least in the U.S., is almost without exception gluten-free. What brand did you use for your family? Of course it if has wheat it HAS to be listed. And I've never heard of barley or rye in bacon.

The bacon almost certainly did not contaminate you.

I'm paranoid but I only cook in my personal stainless steel "gluten better never touch em" pans. I love the hormel naturals bacon with no added nitrites and preservatives...says gluten free on the package.

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
