Somehow I have come down with a cold or something. I have a nagging cough, sinus congestion, extremely sore throat. Was up all night last night coughing and blowing my nose. I had some halls cough drops but they weren't cutting it. I have upped my vitamin C and I'm drinking lots of liquids to try to fight this thing, but I think I'm going to need an OTC drug. I hate drugs. I only take as a last resort. I am very sensitive so something that I can safely take half of the recommended dose of would be good. I know how to do a search, but my head is too foggy and I'm too tired, please tell me some OTC drugs that are gluten free and soy free would be good too, but in this state I will risk the soy. Thanks in Advance.

PS: I know all the natural remedies, have neti pot, tea with honey, etc.

My son loved the neti pot when he had his last cold. He said it was "amazing" www.glutenfreedrugs.com has a list of gluten-free cold meds. I think they are under both list and the alpha list.

glutenfreedrugs list Tylenol serve sinus, and Tylenol serve congestion. I hope you feel better soon!

Thanks sending Hubby to the store soon. Will make him choose somethign from the list. I just can't think straight. Too tired and need to get all this junk out of my lungs so I can breath. I really need a nighttime cough and cold drug so I can sleep tonight.

I use NyQuil & I've never had a reaction to it. I'm pretty senstive. None of their products contain gluten. Check out their website.

Feel better soon! :)

      Thank you for explaining! This makes sense.

      Wheat Straw Dishes

      By SophiesMom · Posted

      I have been looking for new dishes. I was surprised to find dishes made of wheat straw. Are these safe for us? I'm very careful to avoid products that may contain gluten. I never thought I might have to check for wheat in dishes.

      IgA levels - What do they mean?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Hope07! The reference range would refer to what is considered normal in healthy people. So, 7 or less would mean there is no indication of "active" celiac disease. Apparently, you are doing very will in avoiding gluten. The "Tissue Transglutaminase IGA" is the centerpiece antibody test that clinicians run when checking for celiac disease. My only reservation would be that whenever the TTG-IGA test is run, a "total IGA" test should also be run to check for IGA deficiency. When IGA deficiency is present, other IGA tests, such as the TTG-IGA can be artificially low and result in false positives. In the absence of any symptoms indicating your celiac disease is not under control, however, I would take the result you posted at face value.

      Cruise and GliadinX

      By StevieP. · Posted

      Going on a cruise next week and I’m a celiac. Bought a bottle of GliandinX. Should I just take two tablets per day as a precaution? Never tried this before!! Any help is appreciated!!

      IgA levels - What do they mean?

      By Hope07 · Posted

      Hola! Not sure if I’m asking this in the right place so apologies if not! I just had a full blood count as part of my first check up after being diagnosed with celiac disease 7 years ago!! With Covid lockdowns then living in Spain for 3 years and now back in the UK, I kept getting missed in the system but finally I’ve had a check up! Does anyone know what this means?  Tissu transglutaminase IgA lev:  0.30 U/ml Reference range:  Below 7 Thank you!
