Significant Other Wants To Say Something

Ok, i'm not doing well, no one has responded to my request.

So, here's my story should anyone care to listen and maybe help...;

I live with the Dr. Laura of gluten, fibro, ( I would like to say " sily" celiac, but won't) celiac disorders.

I was doing quite well until she discovered she has fibro, celiac, (possibly) and no tolerance to gluten.

Now, my world has been turned upside down. Now, I can't eat this and I can't eat that. I thought I was doing quite well at 59 years of age. Don't let me get an upset tummy or a headache after eating my bowl of cereal with "Milk"!! .. by the way the cereal was loaded with wheat. and the ham sandwich on bread. What's a guy to do? Jimmie

So I'm guessing you arent allergic to gluten and she thinks because she cant eat it, you shouldn't either?? That seems a little drastic but you should be understanding of her condition. I am allergic as well and my BF is very supportive about it, I do not require him to quit eating it but its nice sometimes when he's eating something with gluten, i'll say oh that looks so good and he'll say oh no its actually pretty horrible you wouldnt like it haha. But it is very nice he checks ingreidients and brings me treats home. You should have a good talk with her, you shouldn't be punished for her condition, I wouldnt expect everyone to quit eating gluten just because I can't.

good luck

      I noticed when eating some gluten-free foods I get increase of gas. I read it can be due to starches or sugar. But is there a particular name of the sugar or starch known to cause increase of gas to look in the ingredients to avoid. Thanks

      Yes I am going through that I fall asleep for a few hours than I’m up all night and I’ve lost so much weight I look like a skeleton the brain fog is causing me to think I have the start of dementia, I started taken Aleve am & pm but just read it contains gluten & I’m having trouble finding gluten-free over the counter med for sciatica I also get knee shots every 6 months & I'm being to think they might be triggering flare up’s this is a tough road to walk..I also have to care for my 95 year old mother who doesn’t understand what I’m dealing with & she’s in physically bad shape & is refusing home health care, my stress level is over the top so my dr. Gave me Alprazolam for my anxiety & I just read about it could be contaminated with gluten..I’m at my wits end

      I know these topics are a few years old but thought I would comment. My daughter was diagnosed last November from endoscopy end of August. Having good and bad days but recently having a bout of lower back pain, bloating, some abdominal discomfort with a feeling of pressure. She’s doing her best with gluten free and finally has an appointment with the dietitian this week, also waiting to have several blood tests done. Have told her it takes time for things to settle but she’s worried it might be recurrence of an ovarian cyst from 2/3 years ago.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @science enthusiast Christi! I don't have a problem with disaccharides but I do with polysaccharides and complex carbohydrates which are so common in many gluten free processed foods. Gar gum, xanthan gum, pea fiber, chicory root, inulin etc. All those "prebiotics".
