Pain Relievers

Every single time I take this certain over the counter pain reliever, I feel very glutened, I don't take NSAIDS so this is the other. I have a corn allergy but this is more of a painful digestive gluten type reaction. What do other super sensitives take for pain relief. Is there anything natural and not full of chemicals? I am just having a hard time trusting companies because their answers are so vague. Does it contain gluten on not should be a yes or no answer.

Thanks,

-MO

It's the corn. I have Tylenol made at a compounding pharmacy. No corn, no gluten, no soy. I can take it with no problems, and although it's expensive it's worth it.

You are probably right. Corn is starting to make me feel even worse than gluten if that is at all possible. Trapped gas and PAIN!

Do you need a RX for what you are talking about?

Have you ever tried taking Curamin? It's made of turmeric, and many people find relief from pain when taking it. You can check it out at www.curamin.com.

If I eat corn I'm ok but if I eat something made from corn (bread) or something like medication my tummy doesn't like it. The generic armour had corn so I just have it compounded so I don't have to worry :) Hopefully you'll find something :)

Here in South Dakota I have to have a prescription. I think it varies by state. I got my prescription at the free clinic. I didn't want to pay for an office visit on top of the cost of the meds.

If you're in a spot and can't get the compounding pharmacy yet, there's a plant that I've been using. Datura. You can buy it and there are many native versions across the country. It has quite pretty and showy flowers that tend to bloom in the evenings. You can also crush the leaves/petals and use them as a contact anesthetic for some types of pain.

This book has a good section on how one variety can be made safely (and unsafely): http://www.(Company Name Removed - They Spammed This Forum and are Banned)/Herbal-Medicine-American-Southwest-Charles/dp/0977133303

I've seen this in various libraries, so I'm sure you could find it on an interlibrary loan.

This stuff grows along the highways and in my yard, so it was nice to find out I could use it for pain, too! :-) It's not a miracle cure, but it has been effective.

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  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:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
