Safe Wines For Super- Sensitive People?
oceangirl replied to Shell156's topic in Super Sensitive People
Wine is good. I stick to unoaked primarily, to be ultra-safe, have been gluten free since 2006 and am hyper- sensitive to the evil gluten! I like Barefoot wines but, after reading much research, I am pretty certain any reaction to lovely wine is due to something other than gluten. wine actually helps a reaction for me, by the way! Best luck in healing to... -
Hello oceongirl, Ive been reading an old post about the abdominal pain you were experiencing at night time.
My daughter has recently been diagnosed as Celiac and is suffering with the same pain at night. Did you ever find out how to control this? She is already on the diet and was ok for a few months but recently had a stomach bug and is up every night again.
Any advice you can give ...

Hello. I'm late to this but thought I'd throw in my two cents. I react very similarly to MargoS.; I am afraid of gluten. I've been gluten free since 2005, am extremely sensitive (found out the hard way) and NOTHING does what gluten does to me so... if I hear hoofbeats..... Symptoms: severe left side abdominal pain, gas and bloating, very distended...

Hi, I have successfully put tomatoes back in for 2 years now (didn't have any nightshades for about 2 and 1/2 years) with success. Occasionally, I'll have a little bit of white potato but they still bother me a bit. Potato chips don't (??!!!!!) but I can't find a company without cross-contamination! I sometimes eat red peppers as well. I'm highly sensitive...

ForbloodyEVER! Okay- about 2 weeks... I also can experience the delay which does make pinpointing the culprit worthy of Sherlock Holmes... lisa

Yes, terrible nightmares when glutened-somehow gluten itself makes its way into the dreams in some nefarious way, too. I have nightmares sometimes without gluten but I ALWAYS have them if glutened. It's interesting to hear others have similar experiences. Sleep tight, lisa

I think I'm very much out of your age-range, but I thought I'd say I keep a detailed food log and I ABSOLUTELY have a HORRIBLE time around my period. I am nearly 50, though, and do have a fibroid, but I NEVER had PMS until now and it is quite intense- sort of a constant early labor type contraction. And if I get glutened during or before my period it seems...

I had a feeling like that all the while I breastfed my daughter except it also extended to the back of my throat. Eventually saw an ear, nose throat guy 'cause I was going nuts, but no one ever found anything. I still have odd 'mouth" reactions to food on occassion-(now I'm going through menopause) I think it might be hormonal. It's very weird, though...

Don't know what happened there- not computer-savvy, but my reply got mixed in with previous quote. Ggrrr... anyway, anyone who reads this may get the jist. lisa

Thanks, Nini. I know something is getting in and I'm just wondering if it's that because I practically bathe in it during the day at school (a bit paranoid about germs since having pneumonia 3 years ago) I'll try the company again when I have time and let all know what they say. lisa

Hi Guys, Anyone know if the alcohol-based hand sanitizer Purell (that DOES have Vit E in it) is gluten-free? The GermX company could not confirm the source of their Vit E, so not sure if gluten-free. I can't seem to get through to a person at Purell and their web-site doesn't answer this. We practically drink this stuff (kidding) in our program at school...

Lubriderm-gluten-free?
oceangirl replied to oceangirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Lorka Thank you. I was using the Lubriderm as a sunscreen but I think I read on here that Banana Boat is gluten-free so maybe I'll try that. I like Burt's Bees, so I'll get some hand cream. Thank you! lisa -

Lubriderm-gluten-free?

Thank you, Lisa. lisa -
Geez, I'm on a roll today trying to find culprits to this hideous feeling! Is Lubriderm gluten-free? I thought it was but now am unsure. Maybe we're just all supposed to buy nothing and use nothing and eat only things we swat or find on trees! I'm losing it!!!!! And I feel the planet is losing it as well! Since I think we're kind of a big detriment...
