Frustrating

I had a baked potato with my special butter only and a bag of M & M's and within a half hour I could feel the thunder storm coming. I must have had a hit of wheat but don't know how. If it's that easy then I don't know what else to do! :( :( :( :(

Searching for things that bother us can be very frustrating indeed. :(

Sometimes your reaction time changes, sometimes any food cause discomfort, sometimes your tummy can be off or sometimes other ingredients can bother you. And sometimes, your hands can transfer gluten from another source. It's almost impossible to figure it out. We all just do our best.

A baked potato and some M&M's should not be a gluten issue, unless they were Crispy M&M's or you live in New Zealand. I don't know what you special butter is, but sometimes dairy can be an issue for a while.

I'm sorry you're feeling bad. I went thru the same thing for months. I found I was getting cc from touching things like the microwave, oven or refridgerator handle. I wash hands more frequently, especially after touching common items, just in case, as the rest of my family eats gluten. I'm trying to figure out how to use less paper towels.

Good luck to you.

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.

      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.

      Not everyone with dermatitis herpetiformis needs to avoid iodine. DH is caused by gluten exposure, but iodine can worsen or trigger flares in a subset of people, especially when the rash is active or not yet controlled by a strict gluten-free diet. Some people react to iodized salt, seaweed, shellfish, or iodine supplements, while others tolerate normal dietary iodine without problems. In most cases, iodine restriction is individualized and often temporary, not a lifelong rule for everyone.

      Questions: How old are you now? How long ago were you diagnosed as having celiac disease? Do you practice a strict gluten-free diet? Are you taking vitamin and mineral supplements to offset the nutrient malabsorption issues typical of celiac disease and if so, can you elaborate on what you are taking?

      My vision was good as a teen and now has gotten worse in the last year. Could that be caused by my celiac disease?🤓😎🥸👓🕶️
