I have been craving a piece of white chocolate. Dark choc does not do well with my bladder. Does anyoe know of one that is gluten-free and soy free? Dairy free would be good too but not sure if that can happen?????? hmmmmmmm

If I have a small peice ....a little dairy will probably not upset me...sometimes I have a drop in my coffee and am ok with it. A full glass.........well that's another story! (I'ld be sick for days!)

thanks, :blink:

Mel-

I like white chocolate too. Dark or milk chocolate really bothers my system. I eat Hershey's white chocolate (but not dairy free of course). I eat the new white chocolate reeces cups from time to time.

Here is one gluten-free/dairy free white chips (never had them myself):

Speaking of chocolate, I know that most gluten-free sites say that you can eat cocoa, but I for some reason absolutely can't. Does anyone else have this problem?

And mela, the only thing I can think of is EnjoyLife foods, which make soy/milk/gluten/wheat free everything-- but I don't think their chocolate is white. You might want to find out though if they have white chocolate?

Hope that helps!

GFPrincess--

I echo your cocoa issue. I really can't eat cocoa--reg. chocolate, any form of caffeine and corn are the things that kill my digestive system--not really Celiac issues... I'm atypical in that way. A bowl of pasta won't really bother me, but about 4 corn chips and I get some serious pain. Crazy how our systems can be... Any other atypical foods for you?

White toblerone is gluten-free. I don't know if it's soy/dairy free.

I baked a gluten-free cake made with chestnut flour, excellent! I am not sure of the name of the mix, I think it is Dowd & Dowd. If I use it again I will post it for you.

I love Carob, it is close to cocoa but seems to sit better with most people.

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      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.

      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.

      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!
