I get headaches a lot and just plain aspirin doesn't ever help so I take Excedrin Headache a lot. I haven't been able to find much info on this yet. Does anyone know anything about it?

Excedrin extra strength is on this list www.glutenfreedrugs.com

I have asked about Excedrin Migraine on here in the past and no one responded.

Thanks! I looked on the list before I posted the question about it but I must have missed it. Good to know!

Anyone know about Excedrine Tension Headache?? I have e-mailed the company many times and NEVER get a response back. Maybe if I called I might have better luck. I just can't tell if I am getting a reaction to it or not. I usually do have some tummy discomfort, but it could have been something else I ate. Like yesterday I took some of the Excedrin Tension in the morning. Then I tried Mission corn tortillas (many people here recommend them), but since the tortillas have guar gum and I haven't been able to tolerate that in the past so I usually avoid it, I can't tell if the gas, pain and bloating I had all night was due to the tortillas or the pills... :(

So today I'm not taking any. But the temperature where I live has been over 100 degrees and is possibly going to hit 108 today! Anytime it goes over 100 and I have to go outside I risk getting a migraine. I can usually keep the migraine away by starting the day with some caffeine (and preferably acetominophen). I was told before that the Excedrine Migraine is gluten-free, but I don't take aspirin and find the Tension works just as well. It is the same as the migraine pills minus the aspirin. So if should be gluten-free, right? I just wish the company wouldn't blow me off. It makes me irritable. So does the heat! :rolleyes:

Sorry to ramble on. If anyone can help me, please do. I'm heading off to the community pool with later with 6 kids and 3 adults. Thank God for lifeguards. :D

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
