ok so, for xmas I was given a cookware set, I thought it was very thoughtful, It's a really nice set that normally we would never consider (to much money) but it was A fantastic sale.. so accepting this is proving very hard for me..

I have done nothing at all different, the same safe diet... but I am facing some rather annoying C, and all the discomforts that come with that.

I do not understand what I could be reacting to..what's wrong with this set..

I couldn't find the exact set, but this one looks really similar just different pieces.

Do you have soy issues? I had something happen like that with an All Clad Emeril grill pan. It was treated with soybean oil. You might call and see if they treat with anything.

I cannot imagine what would be on/in a set of new pans that would cause you to suffer C. That is perplexing. :unsure:

Unless--and I have no idea if this is even possible--they are made of iron and somehow you are absorbing that?? I think I read on here somewhere you can absorb iron from cast-iron pans.

Iron supplementation can cause major C.

Common causes of constipation include:

Inadequate water intake.

Inadequate fiber in the diet.

A disruption of regular diet or routine; traveling.

Inadequate activity or exercise or immobility.

Eating large amounts of dairy products.

Stress.

Resisting the urge to have a bowel movement, which is sometimes the result of pain from hemorrhoids.

Overuse of laxatives (stool softeners) which, over time, weaken the bowel muscles.

Hypothyroidism.

Neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease or multiple sclerosis.

Antacid medicines containing calcium or aluminum.

Medicines (especially strong pain medicines, such as narcotics, antidepressants, or iron pills).

Depression.

Eating disorders.

Irritable bowel syndrome.

Pregnancy.

Colon cancer.

(Mayo clinic)

Anything like that going on??

I have never heard of a NEW cookware set being treated with an oil-pre-shipping! Especially treated with an allergen. :blink:

Imagine the LAWSUITS that could be filed??!! :blink:

(I believe what YOU are saying--I am just very surprised!)

What did the company say???

Sometimes metal is coated with oil. Non- food uses have silicone. I would image food would be something like soy. Are these Teflon? There are new types of Teflon stuff in the last few years. Can you clean Teflon with an orange based cleaner or lemon juice or white vinegar? That should cut any grease left on them. But if you have been cooking with them, they are likely clean by now.

Do you still have the old pans? Try them & see what happens. It could be something else that will go away in a few days but hard to know.

Email the company and ask?

What a bummer!

It was an All Clad Pre seasoned cast iron grill pan. I called to see what it was pre seasoned with. They told me soybean oil. I returned it.

This is not the one that I bought but read where it says materials.

There was nothing on the box saying that the pan had soy in it. CRAZY!

That IS crazy! They should not do that. They should have paid for the return shipping at least :angry:

If that is what this was, since it isn't a consumable they don't need to label it. Also, soy oil is not considered "allergenic" because it's so highly processed that it's rendered "allergy free" though there are many people who may react to it.

True, true, Stephanie. :) Thanks for clarifying for us.

Right after I wrote that, I thought about it and realized exactly what you are saying. I should know better, having had a soy intolerance. :rolleyes: Still, it does seem like something they should not do--as actually, it is consumable via the cooking process. Probably wouldn't be a problem, but you never know.

I can tolerate soybean oil and soy lecithin, but soy flour or edamame, etc? No.

The consumer can treat the pan before cooking the first time herself.

lol well it most certainly isn't pregnancy xD but as far as I know I don't suffer from any of that, especially not dehydration, I drink a TON of water, maybe I had a bit to much lactose free milk but I don't drink THAT much, and it never caused issues like this before, and I would go back to the normal silverish looking pots we used but.. my mom went and cooked Gluten pasta in them and I'm not sure if they are alright to just clean?

I do plan on getting a cheap set similar to the silver one to trial, I suppose I should send the company off an email, oddly I never thought of that =/

You could use the old pans. Just scrub with vinegar or baking soda or Barkeepers Friend. They are just plain metal not a Teflon coating. Boil Water in them for a while and pour it out.

Well, I still think that pans should not be sold with food already in them :ph34r:

I'm wondering, did we find out if these are Teflon? Her previous pans were not. Maybe it's the Teflon that bothers her?

The link to the ad for the pans says "non-stick"...could be!

T-fal non-stick coatings contain Teflon. T-fal was the first maker of non-stick cookware based on Teflon fifty years ago.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Celiac50, Most Celiac patients with a Marsh score as high as yours are more likely to suffer from fat malabsorption and deficiency in fat soluble vitamins, Vitamins A, D, E, and K.   Vitamin A toxicity does not cause Celiac disease.  Your Vitamin A toxicity was probably developed after your diagnosis and subsequent over-supplementation.  Fish contains thiaminases, chemical compounds that destroy thiamine, Vitamin B 1, making the thiamine unusable.  Excessive intake of foods containing thiaminases can precipitate low thiamine.   Low thiamine can also be a result of bacterial or yeast infections.  A high carbohydrate diet encourages Candida and bacterial infections.  High carbohydrate diets promote SIBO and Candida because they feed on the excess carbohydrates and suppress the beneficial bacteria.  Other types of bacteria can take advantage of this and set up housekeeping outside the gastrointestinal tract, including bacterial vaginosis. Thiamine Vitamin B 1 can alter the microbiome.  Thiamine has been shown to suppress Candida, SIBO, and other bacterial and viral infections, and favor the growth of beneficial bacteria.  My SIBO cleared once I supplemented with Benfotiamine, a form of thiamine that has been shown to promote intestinal healing, and a B Complex.  Thiamine works in concert with the other B vitamins and magnesium. Thiamine helps to lower histamine levels by calming mast cells that release histamine at the slightest provocation.   Following the Autoimmune Protocol diet also helped immensely in getting my digestive system calmed and able to tolerate more foods. Have you discussed with your doctor and dietician supplementing essential B vitamins while healing?  What is your Vitamin D level?  Vitamin D helps calm the immune system.

      Has anyone ever had Low Ferritin with Elevated MCHC levels?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Update - my Active B12 is 36.  Apparently lab results between 25 and 70 suggest a possible deficiency, anything below 25 is a confirmed deficiency, above 70 is normal.   I am thinking this could be the explanation for my elevated MCHC. Anyway, yet again I find myself bumping along the levels of low normal by British NHS standards, which isn't great, because from what I understand, in the UK our normal levels are set low and 'lower normal' levels would be considered a deficiency in such countries as Germany and Japan. Regarding B12 levels, it doesn't look as if my levels are low enough to be offered B12 injections.  That being the case, I remember reading that sublingual tablets can still be very effective but one particular type is better than another - I can't remember which type.  Can anyone help?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Celiac50 If you are after a vitamin A test - sorry - I'm tired so not sure if I'm reading this correctly - perhaps you could try a home test?  I'm in the UK and am currently a bit perplexed about my own vitamin issue and thinking of going to a private lab for tests.  My issues is suboptimal Active B12 (only 11 marks off deficient) but no health professionals seem to be taking any interest in it although this is  my fault as last time I saw my Consultant I failed to mention my symptoms - I had so many other questions to ask him.  Anyway - here are the details for an A test: https://www.medichecks.com/products/vitamin-a-retinol-blood-test?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=11996732820&gbraid=0AAAAAD9XHFyeAOrxlryOpWS_jXwZ8PCc1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIyrjj2Pb2jwMVnJJQBh22CTkVEAAYASAAEgIGDPD_BwE

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      Diagnosed with potential Guillain Barre could it be celiac related?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a very complex and difficult situation, and your intuition about a potential link to celiac disease is medically plausible. While Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) is often triggered by infections, it can also be precipitated by other immune system events, including a significant gluten exposure in a person with celiac disease. The timeline you describe—neurological symptoms appearing after the GI symptoms subsided—is classic for post-infectious (or in this case, post-exposure) GBS. Furthermore, there is a recognized, though rare, neurological condition directly linked to celiac disease called Gluten Ataxia, which affects coordination and can cause gait problems. However, the rapid onset of paralysis and cranial nerve involvement you experienced is more characteristic of GBS than typical gluten ataxia. It's also important to know that a negative EMG early in the course of GBS does not rule it out, and "Functional Neurological Disorder" (FND) is not purely psychiatric; it is a real and complex disorder where there is a problem with the functioning of the nervous system, not its structure, and it can be triggered by physical illness or stress. The most critical step is to continue working closely with your neurologists. You should absolutely bring up your celiac history and your theory, as it is a relevant piece of the diagnostic puzzle. They may consider specific antibody tests related to gluten neuropathy or ataxia to help differentiate the cause.
