My husband still drinks beer and does everyday so I never get to kiss him like a husband and wife but more like a friend on the cheek. Does anyone else out there have this problem or did your spouse quit drinking beer since you were diagnosed? Also, how do you kiss you spouse if they still eat food containing gluten?

My husband is not a beer drinker anymore. The last 6 pack lasted well over 6 months. He is on some medications and he can't consume much in the way of alcohol any more. On the rare occasion he has a beer he knows to brush his teeth and thats that. He is really good about this after eating gluten stuff too. As far as I know I have not had any problems. He will even tell me if a soda bottle is safe for me or not if we sometimes share a drink.

My guy drinks beer, eats bread. I've never been glutened from kissing him. But with jobs and teenagers and all the talk about BM's, passion has been on the back burner for a long time!

My wife still drinks beer and eats all forms of gluten. Not a problem with me. IMO, you're being too paranoid. The gluten in beer is miniscule to begin with.

My hubby drinks beer & eats gluteny food. I get a kiss on the cheek afterward, but I'm only worried when I can see evidence of gluten on him (a crumb or a drop of the beer on his lip), haven't had a problem yet :)

Thanks for all the replys! Not too paranoid, just going by what I read on this site!

I wait a while after my husband has eaten anything glutenous, but I certainly don't not kiss him. :)

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
