Hi

I know i'am new, but dairy dosen't seem to bother me, are there others who, are gluten free, but can still use dairy. I have been gluten free for about 2weeks. I've never had problems with dairy, l like cheese of all kinds, and so far l have had no advers reactions. So please comment, and tell me if you've had similar good results with dairy.

Sljh :D:P:rolleyes:

Hey Lewiss!

After diagnosed, I went gluten free. Once I successfully quieted the gluten voice, the dairy voice made itself known...about six to eight weeks later. Both were there all along, at that time.

I eliminated dairy for several weeks and was able to reintroduce it with success.

No one is the same and you may have no problems. If, so great! :)

Same here. I thought I was fine with dairy- turns out it was just the lesser of the two evils. About 12 months after dx, I had to go casein free too.

Hi I have been gluten free about a year. I've always had trouble with dairy. At first on my gluten-free diet eating things like sour cream and processed cheese gave me a gluten like reaction. So I stay away from those things. Now I can drink a half of a cup of milk ok but a whole cup gets me bloated and runny nose for four days. Yoplait yogurt is good to me, it seems to help calm down my stomach. I usually eat two small containers a day with no reaction. Real cheese like chedder seems ok too and just yesterday I was reading the package of Kraft shredded sharp chedder cheese and it said 0g lactose. So I would say a good non-generic brand would be ok to try. Everyone is different so you will have to do more trials. Also the milk made low lactose like Lactaid gives me double the reaction compared to regular 1% cows milk. Usually I just drink almond milk. Good luck to you, everything is a learning experience.

Dairy usually upsets me within a half hour to hour and gluten takes a whole day and they are different reactions now.

I had never had a problem with dairy (that I knew of) until a couple months after going gluten free. I can have a little bit of sharp cheddar at this point but I'm not pushing anything else till I know for sure I'm good with the cheese. Good luck

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:
