Glutened Again

I pretty much eat the same foods over and over with a few exceptions. I recently added a few things to my diet that I have not had in 6 months or more. Has anyone been glutened by any of these items? I am at a loss as to what got me and which I should throw out.

Plain Organic coffee with coffeemate creamer I bought a new coffeemaker as well.

Edy's French Vanilla Ice Cream

Hershey's Kisses

Dairy is not a problem as I drink milk and eat cheese etc.

Lays Stax

I just read the other 2 posts from today about the Kisses. I suspect that those are the culprit. Into the trash they go. You know, this is not the first time that Hershey's has made me sick. Back to Enjoy Life Chocolate bars at least they are made in a dedicated factory on dedicated lines.

If you can handle dairy, stick with regular 1/2 and 1/2 or milk for your coffee.

I run from coffee creamer and Hershey's chocolate. From everything I've read, I think they both are risky.

And it never seems to matter if they're marked gluten-free or not, I ALWAYS have issues after eating potato chips. IDK if it's a grease/fat thing or what, but my innerds just can't handle them.

I had a date tonight, first meeting of a very nice man... We went to Perkins where I had previewed the menu and found something that looked to be gluten free. Swiss and mushroom chicken on a bed of herbed rice with two sides.. I picked two veggies. Ok we're in business right? WRONG.

My dinner came out with a big ol roll on top of my asparagus so I asked the waitress for another small plate so I could remove the asparagus from my plate. (I had told her about the gluten thing before I ordered and she assured me there wasn't any in this dish haha) She was upset that I wasted the asparagus.. Excuse me? Secondly, I'm talking with my new friend and not really paying attention to my 'herbed rice' and he noticed (he has a friend with Celiac) that what I was eating wasn't just rice, there was orzo pasta in it... Grrrrrrrrr

This is my first time being glutened and I feel like crap. I feel like I have the flu and it's only been an hour since we were at the restaurant. So much for a nice first date huh? But he was very good about it and didn't bat an eye and even asked me if I'd like to see him again so it wasn't all bad... he is a nice guy! Twinkle in her eye as she sits close to the bathroom!

He said next time we'll go to the Mexican place I love...

I have never had a problem with Hershey's kisses - eat them all the time. But I do get sick from Lay's Stax, so I think that could be the culprit.

Everything I've read (and the coffeemate reps) say that coffeemate is gluten free, but I got sick off their Honey Vanilla Creme twice. Haven't had a problem with their sugar free versions & I'm too scared to try their sugary ones again. I don't think anyone else has a problem with them though.

Sometimes it's a crap shoot as to what glutened us.

Today I had real cream with my coffee.

Going to skip the Stax

Threw the ice cream and kisses out.

I def. don't need the candy and I am getting a new ice cream maker for Christmas so problem solved. It just gets annoying feeling bad and not knowing exactly what zapped us.

Judy3, I'm sorry you got sick on your date. Good thing that you were not going to a movie or something after! He sounds like a keeper since he was so understanding. Hope you feel better soon!

Maybe it's the soy in these products?

That's what I was thinking too, soy. Coffee Mate has soy in it. I am not sure about the Hershey's Kisses, but most chocolate has soy in it. The Coffee Mate site says it is gluten free.

hmmm, maybe it is the soy. I'll have to eliminate soy and see if I feel better. Thanks everyone for your help!

Does soy tend to give people gluten type intestinal reactions?

Yes, for me it does. I am still healing (3 months) and the only thing I kept using was coffee mate. I love the stuff. But after feeling so sick....I realized it is the soy. Every single time. I now use half n half or real cream. I think that solved the problem...until I start getting sick from the dairy! Good luck. I am right there with you on this..learning what makes me ill.

Soy can cause GI symptoms, along with a whole bunch of other possible symptoms too. Different people can have different reactions to it.

Me too. In fact my reaction to soy is stronger and worse than my reaction to gluten. I also tend to puff up like a puffer fish.

Not only does soy give me a little bit of gi reactions but I get depression and anxiety worse.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      I am on day 13 of eating gluten and have decided to have the celiac panel done tomorrow instead of Wed. (and instead of extending it a few more weeks) because I am SO incredibly sick. I have almost no appetite and am not able to consume the required daily intake of calcium to try to keep up with the loss of calcium from the high parathyroid hormone...

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By catnapt · Posted

      I am on day 13 of eating gluten  and have decided to have the celiac panel done tomorrow instead of Wed. (and instead of extending it a few more weeks) because I am SO incredibly sick. I have almost no appetite and am not able to consume the required daily intake of calcium to try to keep up with the loss of calcium from the high parathyroid hormone and/or the renal calcium leak.    I have spent the past 15 years working hard to improve my health. I lost 50lbs, got off handfuls of medications, lowered my cholesterol to enviable levels, and in spite of having end stage osteoarthritis in both knees, with a good diet and keeping active I have NO pain in those joints- til now.  Almost all of my joints hurt now I feel like someone has repeatedly punched me all over my torso- even my ribs hurt- I have nausea, gas, bloating, headache, mood swings, irritability, horrid flatulence (afraid to leave the house or be in any enclosed spaces with other people- the smell would knock them off their feet) I was so sure that I wanted a firm diagnosis but now- I'm asking myself is THIS worth it? esp over the past 2 yrs I have been feeling better and better the more I adjusted my diet to exclude highly refined grains and processed foods. I didn't purposely avoid gluten, but it just happened that not eating gluten has made me feel better.   I don't know what I would have to gain by getting a definitive diagnosis. I think possibly the only advantage to a DX would be that I could insist on gluten-free foods in settings where I am unable to have access to foods of my choice (hospital, rehab, nursing home)  and maybe having a medical reason to see a dietician?   please let me know if it's reasonable to just go back to the way I was eating.  Actually I do plan to buy certified gluten-free oats as that is the only grain I consume (and really like) so there will be some minor tweaks I hope and pray that I heal quickly from any possible damage that may have been done from 13 days of eating gluten.

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

      Alarming

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      I've noticed with my age and menopause my smell for bread gives me severe migraines and I know this.Its alarming that there are all these fabulous bakeries, sandwich places pizza places popping up in confined areas.Just the other day I suffered a migraine after I got done with my mri when a guy with a brown paper bag walk in front of me and I smelled that fresh dough bread with tuna, I got a migraine when we got home.I hate im that sensitive. Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
