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

      No, I would not say this at all. If you were diagnosed with celiac disease and were gluten-free for a while, you could have gone into remission. Everyone's body is different, and some celiacs may be able to get regular contamination and not end up with damaged villi and positive antibody tests, while others who ingest tiny amounts will relapse and have full blown symptoms and flattened villi.  Only a full gluten challenge would reveal where you are at this point. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      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.

      Great  post. The skin issue can be intolerable. I have been taking niacinamide for the past month and have improved with respect to the blistering lesions.

      I've found taking Niacin Vitamin B 3 in the form that causes flushing (nicotinic acid) helps immensely to clear my skin.  The flushing is harmless and goes away the longer Niacin is taken.  The flushing (vasodilation in the skin) helps the body get rid of the tTg 3 IgA antibodies that cause the blisters.  TTg 2 IgA antibodies are found in the blood and are measured in diagnostic testing for Celiac.  People with Dermatitis Herpetiformis make tTg 3 as well as tTg 2 antibodies.  Niacin Vitamin B3 in the non flushing form niacinamide also works without the flushing, but takes a bit longer.   I also avoid foods containing high levels of iodine because iodine activates the tTg 3 IgA antibodies to become more active and make more blisters.  I avoid kelp (nori, seaweed) and crustaceans,  eggs, dairy products, and iodized table salt.   Niacinamide and Nicotinic acid are water soluble and harmless.  I'd much rather take Niacin than Dapsone with scary side effects.

      We have a gluten-free household. It's the least stressful option. No one else in my family has Celiac, but they are all extremely supportive. We don't even have Play-doh for this kids.
