There is a great guide to work out whether food products in Australia are gluten free if you have an iPhone. Open Original Shared Link Hope it helps

I have coeliac disease diagnosed by blood test and biopsy. 1 year after being gluten free I did a repeat blood test and it came back normal indicating my diet was properly gluten free (as it should be!) I have been strictly gluten free for over 3 years now but Im feeling really tired and weak all the time. I had blood tests done and I was vitamin D deficient...

I use a new toaster and have separate jams and butters etc. I only bake gluten free so I just thoroughly washed my existing baking goods etc. I would throw out wooden spoons, chopping boards etc with cracks anyway as they are not hygienic I use the same pots, pans and pasta strainer i use for gluten I just wash well each time and havent had any...

Australia didn't realise it was only common in Aust & NZ (though I think it was common when I lived in UK too...) INGREDIENTS COMMONLY ARE: Salt, dairy solids, rice flour, hydrolysed vegetable protein (soy and corn), wheat starch, yeast extract, chicken fat, sugar, vegetable powders, hydrolysed corn/wheat/soy protein, corn syrup, monosodium...

I have celiac disease and have never had a problem with having a mixed kitchen. I do have a separate toaster though and separate jars of butter and jam to avoid contamination. I use all the same pans and utensils but I do wash them carefully in a dishwasher (all together is fine). I also dont have any gluten flour in the house as we just use gluten...

that would come under discrimination where I am! (Not USA).

I have been gluten-free for 2yrs and I don't think I've been glutened before (or I didnt notice ) I eat out regularly but Im usually really careful. [if relevant ... before being finding out I had celiac disease and going gluten free I was nearly asymptomatic - no gastro symptoms!] I got hot chips from a shop I dont usually go to yesterday and I ate...

I have celiac disease (no gastro symptoms either) so for testing my daughters (baby & 3yrs) I went with the saliva gene test first as its less invasive and then if they didnt have the genes I could not worry about testing ever again. unfortunately they had the genes (but no surprise!) so now i will have them do a blood test each year to check, even...

my understanding is that if you have the genes for celiac disease you have a 1 in 30ish chance of getting celiac disease at some point. also if you have a first degree relative with celiac disease (like a parent) you have a 1 in 10 chance of having it. I dont know of any stats which look at the combination of the above factors but its going to be higher...

statistically 10% of people with celiac disease had negative blood results the blood tests are just a screening test which finds 90% of celiac disease cases - but that means 10% are missed. If the dr thinks its a good idea id do it. can you investigate the video pill version of the endoscopy instead maybe? (sorry dont remember technical name...

I have celiac disease so I had my 3yr old tested recently (she has had the gene test in the past and does have the genes). The blood test came back negative but she has a severe vitamin D deficiency (despite being outside a lot (but with sunscreen 95% of the time - its australia!) and having particularly fair skin!)? is this related to celiac disease?...

dont know. but i had mine out at age 26 prior to diagnosis with celiac disease. My mother had hers out at 22yrs and has gluten sensitivity.

wow i actually changed my mind on what to do in my daughters situation after reading your post I had done the saliva gene test for my daughter a year ago (which was positive for the genes required to get celiac disease) so then our plan was to do a blood test every year from 3yrs (first test will be done this week) but i had been going to forget about...

My 9mth old baby has a problem with casein. Does casein intollerance cause asthma or does that mean its a casein allergy? The asthma is not necessary immediate just if shes bee eating dairy she gets asthma that day sometimes but definitely that night. My daughter also gets vomiting and diarreah. thanks

My baby is 9mths old and vomits (small amounts) from yoghurt and gets severe diarrhea from both yoghurt and cheese. She is also getting asthma and is on medication daily for that. (she is gluten free just in case so far BTW) She doesnt get diarrhea from her from her HA (partially hydrolised formula), but refuses to have more than 1/2 recommended amount...
