NPR has a story this morning about celiac and the new ingredient guidelines. Pretty good overall. You can find it at the bottom of this site. If it doesn't work for some reason go to npr.org and then click on Morning Edition.

I had several friends call me about this this morning--I caught the tail end of it. I'm trying to get another spot on my local npr channel... Thanks Richard!

Hey, thanks, Richard.

My seventh grade teacher, whom I have kept in touch with sent me an e-mail this morning about a NPR story on Celiac...I wasn't sure if it was the "Gut Reaction" one that was on a few months ago (replaying it?) or not, but it turns out it was new!

I'll have to reply again and thank him for keeping his eyes (well, ears) open for me :D .

The headline says allergy and they mention allergy, but in the body of the story they also explain the difference between allergy and celiac. I was fine with it.

I was just so happy to even hear the word "celiac" on national news!

I was pretty excited to hear the npr report. Maybe I'm behind the times, but the best news for me was that labelling requirements are changing in January. Those "hidden" wheat and gluten drive me crazy, especially eating out. Even better news...If you have not discoved the "Gluten Free Bible" by Jax Lowell--it's amazingly comprehensive. According to the author, the Center for Celiac Disease at the University of Maryland reports that as many as 1 in 132 individuals in the US may have celiac. That's significant enough that we should be taken seriously!

      Ibuprofen

      Paracetamol, aka, acetaminophen (Tylenol) just does not do anything for me as far as pain relief. It does help with fevers, though.

      Ibuprofen

      By cristiana · Posted

      I seem to recall that my digestive issues actually started when I was taking NSAIDs c. February 2013 for some unrelated condition.  My stomach got so sore during that time I went to see my GP and she thought it might be an ulcer or gastritis so prescribed me Omeprazole.  That appeared to trigger diarrhea which, once I came off the Omeprazole, did not stop.  I went back to the doctors after a few weeks, and that finally led to my coeliac diagnosis, after months of unexplained neurological symptoms, low ferritin and anxiety,which did not seem to have a cause but of course we later realised was all down to coeliac disease. I occasionally take a very small aspirin for a sick migraine which sometimes only responds to aspirin, but it usually leaves me with sore stomach a few days later. I've been told co-codamol is another medication I could take with a sensitive stomach. I was once prescribed it, to use for just a few days. It is not an NSAID, but it contains codeine, which I understand can be addictive so should be used with care.  It can also cause constipation.

      I also take Paracetamol. I haven't taken an NSAID in years since being diagnosed with UC. The can cause UC flares.

      Do some people with Celiacs develop hypoglycemia?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @jessysgems! How does this affect you? What do you do to address it. Do you have to get up and consume something sweet?
