I could really do with some help :) please...

I can't find anywhere on the internet where anyone suggests helpful foods during the gluten and casein withdrawals. my boyfriend is going through the casein withrawals at the moment, only 3 days in :( so at least 3 weeks to go.... just figured out that that has been the thing doing him in, as well as gluten and wheat of course (bit of a mine field) now i cant believe i didn't realise earlier. he's been glutened over and over by phony "gluten free" products and all of that, that apparently arent actually reliable, again only just found out. i feel like its an endless cycle of doom and no end in sight, its been almost a year since the first gluten withdrawals! he's horribly depressed as well as all the other physical symptoms and i'm so worried about giving him food that'll agravate the symptoms, any help would be really appreciated. thanks in advance :)

Go with fresh whole homecooked foods. Meat and potatoes, fish, chicken, fruit and veggies etc. I am curious what gluten free foods he having problems with? For some of us stuff like soy or bean flour can be a problem leading us to think we are reacting to gluten when we really aren't.

Tell us what his favorite foods are and maybe someone can be a bit more helpful on that end.

I noticed you are new to the board. Welcome and do read as much as you can here as there is much more to the gluten free lifestyle than just food. For example you need to make sure your lipsticks etc are gluten free and if you are a gluten eater you need to brush your teeth before you kiss. There are many things that the doctors don't tell us when we are first diagnosed which can keep us ill longer.

I can't explain everything but I do know my body reacts more or less violently to different types of gluten. I am not sure of all of them but soy dosn't usually bother me too much. Wheat and barley will have me laid up for days.

      I've was diagnosed celiac over 10 years ago when in mid 50s.  For a long time I have been getting headaches at night and in the morning and I suffer a lot of insomnia.  The headaches can be very severe and sometimes develop into a full migraine but other times they wear off within an hour of getting up and eating breakfast.  I have self diagnosed this a hypoglycaemia.  The medical profession in UK, where I live, does not seem to know anything of this and simply tests me for diabetes, which I do not have.  I know this condition is diet related and caused by carbohydrates, I avoid eating in the evenings.  Whatever I do, this condition seems to be getting worse and is very difficult to control.  Any advice would be much appreciated.

      But that's the point Scott is trying to make. It is up to you. You do not have to go forward with another biopsy simply because your doctor wants you to. They work for you, not the other way around.

      Hi Kate,   I am unsure if this is helpful or not. I have Webber calcium citrate everyday. I also react to less than 20 ppm of gluten. I have not reacted to Webber ever. (Fingers crossed it stays that way). Also, I get my blood tested every 6 months to ensure I have zero gluten exposure. It consistently comes back negative(0) to gluten.  A few years ago, my stomach would feel nauseous after taking Ca+  but thankfully that doesn’t happen anymore. Good luck and I hope you find something that works for you.    all the best,    J

      Honestly that's a good question, but I would like an official answer since I'm not a professional and my doctor's in my opinion no offense to them I'd say gone about it in a unprofessional way unless other's have been told to go gluten free, get a biopsy, just to go back gluten due to a possible false reading and then gotta go back for another biopsy But if it really was up to me per say then I'd definitely stay gluten free like this diet change has really helped me a lot in a lot of ways, not just for health reasons, but discipline toward not indulging to much on things i used too, not to mention being more aware of what I'm intaking by reading labels more and calling the manufacturers to find more answers if needed.

      iceicebritney,  I read where you were referred to John's Hopkins.  If you live in that area/suburb and still have the rash, I can give you my Dermatologist's name(https://www.brderm.com/dr-robinson.html I se Dr Robinson, who diagnosed me with dermatitis herpetiformis/celiac disease 2 weeks after my first visit)
