I agree with gluten-free Mann's advice above.

You're a nurse, you get it. You can educate people, and you've tried to educate him.

He's either with you or against you in this battle. What has he shown so far?

Only you know how far you're willing to stick that line out that he continualy stomps on.

Free advice is worth what you pay for it, but I'd personally eliminate him before I'd giveup the gluten-free diet and lifestyle. Sorry.

He promised in sickness and in health, right? If he can't keep his promise in sickness with a pretty easy solution, my guess is that he definitely isn't worth the long haul. I've had a few major mistakes land in my life involving marriage. I can't say I'm not jaded, but I would bring out the big sharp tongue annd spell things out to him in no uncertain terms.

If you don't like verbal confrontation, type up how you're feeling about his abuse. (Sorry, he is abusing you.) Use a big font.

There are studies that show that verbal and visual presentations of information increase retention by over 70 percent. (Wharton School of Business, Harvard...)

Maybe give that a whirl before you start divorce action. He could be worthwhile but have a learning defecit.

what is it with men and bread-boards / crumbs? Mine just doesn't get it, and my six-year old is following in his footsteps. Am thinking of banning bread full stop. Good luck!!

If the bread is a "man issue", you don't buy it. It can be kept in the "man's domain". The garage! Or the dog house!

Good point, Karen. And he can pick up gluten at all the fast food spots in town without having to contaminate the kitchen. :D

Maybe you don't have to ban the man. Just ban the gluten. The first year is the toughest, it get's better.

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
