I Took A Risk

After having success at a couple of restaraunts with gluten free foods prepared on the grill, I decided to give it a try at home.

We have an infra-red side to our grill that gets to like 900 degrees and the grates look like ash not charcoal. Hubby wiped the ashes off and the steak went on without foil for the first time in a year. While bread has been on the grill a few times, nothing with known gluten has been on it since last summer and we use it at least twice a week in the summer.

I react to gluten with neuro signs (not digestive) in 45 minutes. Here it is at 20 minutes and the tummy is rumbling (I ate a bunch of coconut milk for the first time tonight too).

Anyone want to place bets if I'm going down?

I'm having second thoughts about my calculated risk now.

Don't know, but can you replace the grating? Most grills have optionally replaceable gratings.

No neuro symptoms what so ever. Belly gurgles stopped and I think I'm home free. I wouldn't EVER let hubby put my food on the regular temp side of the grill, but it looks like the infra-red side gets hot enough to char away the gluten.

I'm pretty excited to have that charred taste back to my meat.

Replacing the grates is a great idea for the other side of the grill. I tried scrubbing it last summer, but it never got clean enough.

Congrats on the meat! Sounds yummy! Do you think you were reacting to the guar gum in the coconut milk? I can use small amounts but like a whole pudding with it does not sit well.

      Cartilage and rib pain.

      Luke warm bath (deep) with a handful of Epsom salts, and bath for about 20 minutes. Be careful getting out of the bathtub, the magnesium (Epsom salts) can make you feel a bit woozy. I've suffered from costochondritis, might be what you have? I find rest very helpful, and avoid any foods that bloat you as this can put added pressure on the ribcage.

      Cartilage and rib pain.

      Are you saying that celiac causes you rib pain? Or that your ribs are fragile due to being celiac? Or that the vitamins you take act as an analgesic, and that OTC pain-relievers do not work for you? I don't understand the connection.

      I hate to cook!

      I am so discouraged! I would rather not eat... or even eat junk (with the expected result)... than cook! I have been gluten-free (hah) since 2016. But my husband eats tons of bread, biscuits, cake, muffins... you name it. Everything on the SCD that's illegal, he eats. And buys it and brings it home, many times in trying to please me! Please don't suggest...

      Thank you. I’ll be sure to look into those.

      I am so discouraged!  I would rather not eat... or even eat junk (with the expected result)... than cook!  I have been gluten-free (hah) since 2016.  But my husband eats tons of bread, biscuits, cake, muffins... you name it.  Everything on the SCD that's illegal, he eats.  And buys it and brings it home, many times in trying to please me!  Please don't suggest we have a heart-to-heart talk;  been there, done that.  He truly is unable to change.  ONE reason is that culturally, we are opposites.  Another reason is that he is in his 80's and isn't about to do something he doesn't want to.  If I don't cook for him, his nutrition would be less than poor. My mental state is going from bad to worse.  He is also declining mentally (memory, reasoning) and physically, and that makes me want to cry all the time; that, or be angry. My celiac symptoms are not completely resolved, just somewhat better. I have just read the book re SCD, wish I could try that diet (cause it promises a cure) but the learning/implementing curve is more than I can handle if I have to cook the way they say is necessary. I live in an area with poor medical help; I tried the (only) dietitian listed in my area who is celiac knowledge certified, but she doesn't accept my insurance.  I'm on my own. I am hypothyroid, and on HRT.  Cannot tolerate Buspirone; anti-depressives are ineffective due to gene mutations (I've been tested). Can anyone help?  Or not....

      Im not being heard by my previous doctor I had for 25 years. I switched in May of this year.I was half told of my celiac disease in 1994 and to stay away from wheat and Ill be just fine.Im not.Was on tramadel from I think 2006 til 2023.In 2007 still gluten-free had blood test and showed other food allergies. I have been avoiding and reading labels so I don't get sick.Im 54 years old, my right eye feels as if pressure ( seeing eye specialist) saw dermatologist and had skin graph was told ulcers but since I was disregarded of my celiac disease and it was previous doctor who sent me to dermatologist, its now " undetermined ".I pushed for the first and second ANA panel and negative. I had my 5th colonoscopy July 9 this year and colon looks great, BECAUSE IM gluten-free for 31 YEARS.Waiting on biopsy.My only celiac proof on medical was 2014 that i physically have, i don't have original. How do I get my new doctor to understand the severity of pain Im dealing with, daily flare ups.Exhausted and allergic to everything. Menopause has intensified, i feel but then again I had my 3rd covid in March 2023 and I can't bounce back.Pain down left leg always in the bathroom when I barely eat.Its affecting my life and frustrated with doctors not knowing.To be far my new doctor is having me see two specialist but how do I get him to understand its my false negative celiac disease????
