I looked on the package and did not see any gluten products on it. I went to the web site and they said if there was wheat in it they would list it per federal regulations. So I used it with a cup of biscuiqe for dregging some chicked. My stomach hurts now. I have not had "D" yet but I have been cramping like I might have tonight.

I just wondered if it is just my imagination, or has any one else had a problem with this product.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes, some people with celiac disease do seem to deal with frequent infections, especially if they have ongoing inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, asthma/allergies, or another immune issue going on. Low vitamin D can also affect immune function, so it would be reasonable to ask your doctor to recheck vitamin D, iron/ferritin, B12, folate, zinc, and possibly...

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired.  I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years,  I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.

      Yes, some people with celiac disease do seem to deal with frequent infections, especially if they have ongoing inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, asthma/allergies, or another immune issue going on. Low vitamin D can also affect immune function, so it would be reasonable to ask your doctor to recheck vitamin D, iron/ferritin, B12, folate, zinc, and possibly general immune markers if this keeps happening. Also, people with celiac disease can have reduced spleen function, or hyposplenism, which is one reason some celiac organizations recommend pneumococcal vaccination or making sure you are up to date on pneumonia-related vaccines. Since you are getting bronchitis, pneumonia, and frequent colds in your late 20s, I would not just brush it off, especially if symptoms are lingering after a week and a half. It may or may not be directly from celiac, but repeated respiratory infections are worth documenting and discussing with your doctor, and possibly with an allergist/immunologist or pulmonologist.
