Dairy Again, Ever?

Hello Everyone,

Has anyone here actually healed enough to bring dairy back into thier diets? I'm thinking (not very seriously) about taking a week off work and eating a half gallon of ice cream just to kill the cravings.

Thanks RA

I'm in the same boat, also want to know. Id never eat crap like ice cream or milk again but I REALLY miss greek yoghurt... last I checked I wasn't even able to tolerate goats milk either, which is supposed to be easily tolerated by people with dairy sensitivities... but nope. One bit of goats cheese and I broke out in huge cystic acnes all over my face... so I guess not. :(

Anyone..?

I was off dairy and soy 6 months along with the gluten. Now I have no problems with either. Bring on the ice cream and I want whipped cream on top.

I was able to add back in dairy after a little over a year. I am 44 so that have something to do with it also. I still can't drink a glass of milk but can use it in recipes and in my oatmeal. I can eat all cheese but cottage cheese is still too much lactose. I can do about a half cup of real ice cream. I only have a problem with lactose which is common with celiac. If you have a problem with casein then all dairy is out of the question. So hopefully its only lactose and you will heal with time to add it back in. I've heard of some just needing 2 months of gluten free to heal the villi and others take longer. We will hope its shorter for you!

I am like Kathy. Severely lactose intolerant, but not casein. It's been two years, and I am now able to eat some ice cream and have had a good blob of cream with my cake. I used Lactaid with it at first (I was so bad that that never helped before) and yesterday I had my first trial (successful!) without Lactaid. Yeay!! I hope it's the same for you. I was pining for ice cream.

I had to go off dairy for about 5 months. It was ok for the whole month of December, yay! Then I got glutened :( The lactose problem came right back. So I am hoping it will go away again soon!

Really? :( I'm pretty sure its casein for me... because low lactose/lactose free stuff or whatever like goats milk did the same thing to me... will it last forever?

So would testing positive for allergy to dairy protien mean this is not going to go away? Should I try a little cheese and see what happens? I've been gluten free about 10 months and am 43 now.

Allergy testing is unreliable. Try a little bit of hard cheese, see what happens.

Not sure on this. Others may know more about casein. I just know that it is in all dairy and higher concentrations in harder cheeses. My brother in law who is celiac, had been casein free for over 4 years and is now adding back in small amounts of hard cheeses and milk in recipes only and is doing fine with that, so maybe not a forever thing. Wish I could be of more help there.

Unfortunately, I think everyone heals at a different pace. I took milk products out completely for 6 months and then added it back with no problem. The peanuts, however, were a different story and much harder to eliminate for me. I just added them back after 2 years going without. I am also 45 years old now, gluten-free since 43, I think the older you are the more damage may have been done before diagnosis. I think I have had problems with gluten my whole life.

I tried the hard cheese. Three small servings of colby-jack over a 36 hour period. No reaction the first two servings then with the third I got a rash on my arms and a tummy ache. I didn't explode like I use to LOL. So I'll try again in about six months (maybe 12 months). Thanks for all your help RA

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      Not much use to Canadians but if any British Lindt lovers are looking at this, give Marks & Spencer's Swiss Truffles a try - no barley but same taste. I'm pretty sure that in a blind tasting a coeliac would not know the difference - but then again, if you want to put this to the test, get a non-Coeliac to try this! I don't want anyone here to get glutened...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      I'm based in the UK and haven't tried that bread but in the past have got on quite well with Genius. Mostly I tend to eat bread with added seeds just because I find it more interesting. It is good to speak to another UK coeliac though as I am absolutely sure that up until recently a lot of the bread I was eating had added vitamins - but when I...

      Going Low-Gluten May Harm Good Gut Bacteria, Researchers Warn

      IMO, the information contained in this article is extremely important. Several medical science articles I have run across lately indicate that researchers are just beginning to uncover connections between gut health and diseases we would never have imagined as having a link. One example is Parkinson's. But this sentence caught my eye from this article...

      Study Estimates the Costs of Delayed Celiac Disease Diagnosis (+Video)

      @Dorothy O. Your story is incredibly powerful, and it highlights something that still happens far too often—family members of people with celiac disease aren’t always told that they should be tested, even though first-degree relatives have up to a 1 in 10 chance of having it. It’s heartbreaking that you went so many decades without a diagnosis, especially given...

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It’s actually very common for doctors to order both an endoscopy with biopsies and additional imaging like a CT scan with contrast, depending on your symptoms. The endoscopy with biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease because it allows doctors to directly examine the small intestine and check for villous atrophy. A CT scan, however, doesn’t diagnose celiac disease but can help rule out other causes of abdominal pain, weight loss, anemia, or inflammation. Your doctor may be looking for complications, structural issues, or conditions that can mimic celiac symptoms. So while the CT isn’t part of routine celiac testing for everyone, it is normal if your doctor wants a more complete picture of what’s going on.

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      By DebJ14 · Posted

      Say what you will about Peter Osborne, but he gave me back my life.  Back in 2007 he was not promoting grain free, but came to that conclusion a few years later.  While I did OK on gluten free, I really saw the greatest recovery when I went grain free.  I notice a huge difference if I eat a gluten free food that contains any sort of grain. I ache all over, have digestive issues and my rash comes roaring back.  I think it is probably, because grains are sprayed with Glyphosate in the drying process before being shipped.  Thanks, but I will stick to my organic, grain free diet and continue to feel well at 73.  Not missing out on nutrients as I follow a strict supplement plan based on testing.
