Well, last night I ended up in the ER for the second time this week for this severe rash I've been having. They are saying it's allergic dermatitis caused my allergies to wheat and casein. I've done gluten-free/CF for short periods of time in the past, but after a while, I was able to re-introduce it into my diet. The doctor told me that it's time for me to completely eliminate them, so today is my first day. I'm already noticing a difference. The last few days, it flared up really bad less than 10 minutes after I eat, but today I haven't had any additional itching or swelling and I ate about an hour ago. :) He told me I need to start gluten-free/CF immediately, start keeping a food diary, gave me higher doses of steroids for the rash, and is referring me to a dermatologist.

Thank you. I didn't have any itching until 7pm last night, when I used to having a flare-up every time I eat. That's definitely some progress!

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.
