Hello. I am new to this forum. I am wheat intolerent I know that for sure but have never had any test. I live in the UK and its so hard to get tested for these things. Now I find I am lactose intolerence so I don't eat wheat gluten or dairy pretty boring. I found some really nice bread call "GENIUS" it tasted just like nice white bread you can hardly tell the differance but after eating it felt so ill, pains in my joints could hardly walk, looked in the ingrediance and the only thing I can find that might do it is maze starch. Is there anyone else on here that is intolerent to maze starch? and is it gluten free?

Is one off the symptoms of celiac pains in the joints as well as tiredness? I would also like to know if there is anyone who is intolerence to corn?

If by "maze" you mean maize, that is corn and it is gluten-free. Some people are intolerant to corn, but that is an issue distinct from celiac disease.

Though it is possible that you are intolerant to corn, how do you feel after eating other corn products, such as corn snacks, cereal, cornbread, or homemade popcorn?

There is also a possibility of CC (Cross-Contamination), so the bread might not have been gluten-free enough.

Joint pain and tiredness are 2 of nearly 300 symptoms of celiac disease. Open Original Shared Link Because my celiac disease went undiagnosed for over 10 years there was a lot of damage done to the small intestine thus reducing its absorption ability. At present i am intolerant of (besides wheat, barley, rye, oates and their product) CORN, rice, potatoes (except new potatoes),sucrose, dairy of any kind, legumes, red meats, nuts and nut oils and most other oils(except coconut oil, grape seed oil, hemp oil and virgin olive oil). These dietary exemptions may seem a bit extreme, but i follow a well planned SCD and have been on it for close to 2 years without any problems. Take heart though for i know that eventually i will be able to tolerate everything i have mentioned i had to eliminate, except -of course- wheat, barley, rye, oates and their products. These i can never eat- i do not miss them, they were slowly killing me.

SCD means Specific Carbohydrate Diet. There are several posted. The one i follow is located at Open Original Shared Link . There is also a support website for those who follow the diet. It can be found at Open Original Shared Link With the help of both websites i have been able to compile a menu of over 600 recipes that are tailored to my specific dietary needs. If i can't make it, i don't eat it. There is very little i can't make. Eating "SCD" is a 180 degree change in lifestyle and diet. I feel very fortunate to have found this life saving dietary change.

      Oh, okay. The lower case "b" in boots in your first post didn't lead me in the direction of a proper name. I thought maybe it was a specialty apothecary for people with pedal diseases or something.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Hi @trents Just seen this - Boot's is a chain of pharmacies in the UK, originally founded in the 19th Century by a chap with the surname, Boot.  It's a household name here in the UK and if you say you are going to Boot's everyone knows you are off to the pharmacist! Cristiana

      I am looking to find a Celiac Dietician who is affiliated with the Celiac Disease Foundation who I can set up an appointment with.  Can you possibly give some guidance on this?  Thank you!

      Nacina, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. But I would say/add find a Fat Soluble B-1 like Benfotiamine for best results.  The kind found in most Multivitamins have a very low absorption rate. This article shows how taking a Fat Soluble B-1 can effectively help absorption by 6x to7x times. https://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/thiamine-deficiency-and-diabetic-polyneuropathy quoting from the article.... "The group ingesting benfotiamine had maximum plasma thiamine levels that were 6.7 times higher than the group ingesting thiamine mononitrate.32" Also, frequency is much more important than amount when it comes to B-Vitamin. These are best taken with meals because they provide the fat for better absorption. You will know your B-Vitamin is working properly when your urine becomes bright yellow all the time. This may take two or three months to achieve this.......maybe even longer depending on how low he/you are. The Yellow color is from excess Riboflavin bypassing the Kidneys....... Don't stop them until when 2x a day with meals they start producing a bright yellow urine with in 2 or 3 hours after the ingesting the B-Complex...... You will be able to see the color of your urine change as the hours go by and bounce back up after you take them in the evening. When this happens quickly......you are now bypassing all the Riboflavin that is in the supplement. The body won't absorb more than it needs! This can be taken as a "proxy" for your other B-Vitamin levels (if taken a B-Complex) ...... at least at a quick and dirty level......this will only be so for the B-1 Thiamine levels if you are taking the Fat Soluble forms with the Magnesium as Knitty Kitty mentioned. Magnesium is a Co-Factor is a Co-factor for both Thiamine and Vitamin D and your sons levels won't improve unless he also takes Magnesium with his Thiamine and B-Complex. You will notice his energy levels really pick up.  His sleeping will improve and his muscle cramps will get better from the Magnesium! Here is nice blog post that can help you Thiamine and it's many benefits. I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice God speed on your son's continued journey I used to be him. There is hope! 2 Tim 2:7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included. Posterboy by the grace of God,
