I have very recenly been confirmed with 'strong evidence' (Drs words) with Celiac disease .. I've had an EGD Endoscopy .. a Gastric Emptying Retention Study .. and Celiac disease blood test. I've been suffering fro cronic hiccups since earlyI May 2012 .. they have been stready occurring like 2-3you days on and then 1-3 or so days off .. they seem to be triggered shortly after I eat 1/2 hr -to 2 hrs or begin to exercise within same time limit after eating .. it can get pretty rough as most recently I have started to like burp to clear out an stomach full or air / feeling bloated .. I usually don't get gassy .. at any rate .. I've just started practicing a glutten free diet .. hiccups and burping erdge have seemed to ease up .. today going on 3 days though .. hopefully they'll eventually cease! As they're killing me! .. Has anyone else here had simular symptoms with hiccups triggered by burping erdge? .. Thanks and goodyou health toissues all !! Edmundt .. 1-6-13

You know, I hadn't thought about it, but I used to get hiccups like that. I would bite into a piece of fresh lemon to get rid of them, but they'd be back withing an hour or two. This would go on for several days, then I'd be OK for a week or so. Then they'd be back. I never noticed what triggered them, but since going gluten-free, I don't seem to get them anymore. I can't even remember the last time I had them!

If yours DO come back, try the lemon. It was the ONLY thing that worked for me. And here's hoping that the gluten-free diet cures yours too. They can be downright PAINFUL!

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
