So... in a nut shell... I am not celiac... although I wish that was my issue... I have Small Intestine Bacteria Overgrowth so I cannot have gluten, dairy, large amounts of soy, beans, and most sugars. I'm extremely limited. I really miss beer. I have been trying a few gluten free beer's whenever I find them. I was at a Brewery yesterday that surprisingly had a gluten free beer. Bards. It's ok, but nothing to write home about. I realized, that we really don't have much of a selection. Which is surprising considering gluten is a rising issue. There were so many kinds of beer. Pumpkin. Light. Autumn. Oktoberfest. Etc. Gluten free- one beer. Does anyone know any brewers working on some variety?

Redbridge is my personal favorite, which is made by (I think) Budweiser. You can sometimes find it at a regular supermarket in addition to BevMo. There are actually quite a few gluten-free beers on the market, but I've tried about half a dozen so far.

I hope you are taking a probiotic daily. I am currently being treated for C. Diff and had it for quite awhile before being diagnosed. The only thing that kept it from reaching dangerous levels were the strong probiotics I started taking when symptoms began. My last day of treatment is today....I hope it worked (crossing my fingers).

You may want to consider brewing your own beer. I've picked up the hobby recently and absolutely love it! It's fairly simple, fun, and the best part is you can make the different varieties you are looking for. I just brewed an eggnog brew yesterday.

If this sounds like something that might strike your fancy check into your local homebrew store. I use www.thehomebrewconnection.com because the owner actually has celiac himself and can give you a lot of info and recipes (as he has brewed many of them himself).

Otherwise, you might just have to continue to settle for the b-grade gluten free beer that's available or switch to cider.

Hey Bartkid! Did you know my dog? :D (check out the thread asking how/why we chose our screen names.) Oh, and welcome to the board!

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant b...

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that...

      Brain fog

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend...

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.

      Thanks to those who have replied.  To Cristina, my symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell. To Trents, We didn’t do any of the construction but did visit the job site quite often.  While getting the old house ready we stirred up a lot of dust and I’m sure mold but haven’t been back there for over a month.

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant but also reliant on others to make her food (at school and home) but she didn’t have this problem prior to the gluten challenge when she went strictly gluten-free. It really makes sense to me that the gluten challenge inflammation hasn’t healed and I will be asking her doctors about nutritional issues. I ask for anecdotal stories because the research surrounding the gluten challenge seems to be inconsistent and inconclusive (at least what I’ve been able to find!). Thank you so much for your response!

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.
