Do any of you sometimes allow yourself to have something with gluten in it if you've been craving it for so long, and just deal with feeling sick afterword?

Never. I don't think that I could intentionally eat something knowing it was going to make me sick. Also, my DH breaks out horribly for about 2 weeks after a gluten accident and there is no way I would make myself that miserable on purpose.

In a word, NO!!!!!! I wasted the first 36 years of my life because of this disease. No gluten touches my lips for any reason whatsoever. If I have to offend someone to protect my health that person will no longer be a part of my life.

No, besides the fact the I never want to feel how I did before, this would cause damage to your intestine and that can take a while to heal. The other problems that you can get from continuing to eat gluten, even once in a while, is not worth the pizza or donut.

I got sick the other day, not because of gluten but because I didn't eat enough, and I threw up a couple times. It brought me back to the horrible days when I was sick all the time and I was thinking that I'm so glad that I know what it was the made me that way and now I've been so much better that I never want to go back.

I do not eat gluten knowingly.

I will eat some dairy things knowing that later I might have a stomach ach. It is just different with gluten, though.

There is no way I would intentionally eat gluten ever. I know what it is like to be sick like I was and will not go through that if I have any control over it.

I've been tempted, walking down the grocery store isle - the cherry pop tarts call to me. :D

But then I think about all that gluten ripping and shredding it's way through my small intestine and pop tarts lose their appeal. Besides, why bother! That's the great thing about the gluten free diet - there's no forbidden foods, just forbidden ingredients. Now all I need to do is convince Glutino to make gluten-free pop tarts. :wub:

Never. If cross contamination can make me so ill, I shudder to think what a piece of bread. or pie, or whatever would do to me! And, if it did nothing, I shudder to think what THAT would do to my psyche! No, I've finally forgotten what "bread" tastes like, and actually raved :) over my gluten-free Irish Soda Bread tonight!

no never... I have convinced my brain that gluten is poison, so I would never ever intentionally ingest anything poisonous into my body. Not even tempted at all. Though I do wish that Krispy Kreme made a gluten free donut!

No way!

Why on Earth would I want to?

After I was first diagnosed, I strayed a few times, but I quickly learned that it was a bad idea. I have accidently ingested gluten a few times since, but have not knowingly touched anything with gluten since October 2000 (a beer, soon regretted).

Wouldn't think of it. I wish I were as firm about eating properly to lose weight as I am about not eating gluten...I would look like a million bucks!!!!! My mom has had tummy troubles or as she puts it bowel problems for so long. She just won't begin to think it might be a gluten problem and at the age of 87 we can't convince her otherwise. I would like to think I may be avoiding those problems by eating gluten-free and I am the gene carrier. It really isn't that bad anyway....

Not for me! The few times that I've slipped-up and felt so awful are enough to answer the question. The pain and suffering far out-weigh any possible enjoyment from a donut, etc.

      Cartilage and rib pain.

      Luke warm bath (deep) with a handful of Epsom salts, and bath for about 20 minutes. Be careful getting out of the bathtub, the magnesium (Epsom salts) can make you feel a bit woozy. I've suffered from costochondritis, might be what you have? I find rest very helpful, and avoid any foods that bloat you as this can put added pressure on the ribcage.

      Cartilage and rib pain.

      Are you saying that celiac causes you rib pain? Or that your ribs are fragile due to being celiac? Or that the vitamins you take act as an analgesic, and that OTC pain-relievers do not work for you? I don't understand the connection.

      I hate to cook!

      I am so discouraged! I would rather not eat... or even eat junk (with the expected result)... than cook! I have been gluten-free (hah) since 2016. But my husband eats tons of bread, biscuits, cake, muffins... you name it. Everything on the SCD that's illegal, he eats. And buys it and brings it home, many times in trying to please me! Please don't suggest...

      Thank you. I’ll be sure to look into those.

      I am so discouraged!  I would rather not eat... or even eat junk (with the expected result)... than cook!  I have been gluten-free (hah) since 2016.  But my husband eats tons of bread, biscuits, cake, muffins... you name it.  Everything on the SCD that's illegal, he eats.  And buys it and brings it home, many times in trying to please me!  Please don't suggest we have a heart-to-heart talk;  been there, done that.  He truly is unable to change.  ONE reason is that culturally, we are opposites.  Another reason is that he is in his 80's and isn't about to do something he doesn't want to.  If I don't cook for him, his nutrition would be less than poor. My mental state is going from bad to worse.  He is also declining mentally (memory, reasoning) and physically, and that makes me want to cry all the time; that, or be angry. My celiac symptoms are not completely resolved, just somewhat better. I have just read the book re SCD, wish I could try that diet (cause it promises a cure) but the learning/implementing curve is more than I can handle if I have to cook the way they say is necessary. I live in an area with poor medical help; I tried the (only) dietitian listed in my area who is celiac knowledge certified, but she doesn't accept my insurance.  I'm on my own. I am hypothyroid, and on HRT.  Cannot tolerate Buspirone; anti-depressives are ineffective due to gene mutations (I've been tested). Can anyone help?  Or not....
