    You might have missed the part about "The problem was that they family had to wait in line for about 20 minutes, and most of the choices were gone by the time they got to the front." In any case, stories like this will hopefully encourage other celiac travelers to pack extra gluten-free food on any plane trip, just in case things don't go as planned, so how...

    Dapsone does work well for DH, but it does have some pretty serious side-effects, and for some they can be lifelong, so be sure to talk to your doctor and read up on it before using it. I've heard that over the counter Ben-Gay helps, but I never tried that. I think the best way to deal with DH is a 100% gluten-free diet. I only had DH on one spot on the back...

    I think the covid-19 research is coming out, just slowly. When it is published we do summarize it, and here are some past summaries: https://www.celiac.com/search/?q=covid-19&type=cms_records2&updated_after=any&sortby=newest&search_in=titles

    Millet is considered gluten-free for those with celiac disease and has been on our safe list for over 25 years:

    I agree with @trents and it seems like your doctor may not be up on the latest with celiac disease, and perhaps her diet isn't 100% gluten-free, especially if you're eating outside your home. This article may help:

    We've got an article here somewhere on the genetic stats, but this is developing and more genetic markers are being discovered. The ~23% would be those who have at least one genetic marker that could trigger celiac disease. Also, it turns out that the genetic markers for celiac disease may have been inherited from Neanderthals, which is interesting. And yes...

    It is pretty common for some with celiac disease to have a delay in the onset of symptoms after eating gluten, and symptoms can change over time. It's probably too late at this point, but this article might help should you get contamination again:

    Links are not evidence...I would only add that only published studies on this should be shared, not anecdotal evidence. There is also such a thing called coincidence, and when hundreds of millions of people are getting a shot, even if that shot were just secretly full of water, there would be many people making all sorts of claims about the negative health...

    I don’t think millet is in the rice family so should be ok: https://pediaa.com/what-is-the-difference-between-rice-and-millet/amp/

    I used to have a dermatitis herpetiformis rash on my hand, and recall that the itchiness would always happen before the rash appeared.

    Welcome! I’m not sure how sensitive you are to gluten, but try not to worry too much because it won’t help you. Many celiacs make mistakes and get accidental contamination from time to time, but in the long run it’s very important for you to avoid it to stay healthy.

    I think you need to ask yourself whether or not you would need a formal diagnosis in order to stay on a gluten-free diet for life. To me it sounds like you wouldn’t, and getting the diagnosis comes with some drawbacks like more expensive private health and life insurance…for life.

    Welcome to the forum. Be sure to discuss your new symptoms with your doctor, of course it could be something worse, but this article may also be helpful, and covers some of the things @cristiana mentions, plus more:

    I too had issues with many foods, including vegetables like tomatoes and garlic, until my gut healed. It might help you to take some enzymes to help you digest, at least until you can heal your gut, which can take 1-2 years.

    Use raw white rice, and we updated this in the recipe.

    If you have celiac disease it's best to go gluten-free diet as soon as possible to help you avoid the many related conditions that may be triggered by gluten, and this category on our site summarizes research on them: /celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/
  18. Scott Adams
    Welcome to the forum! It's possible that this is a symptom of another condition, but have you tried keeping a food diary and eliminating other foods, for example dairy, soy, corn, etc., to see if there is a connection? Also, do you include gluten-free oats in your diet? I ask about oats because around 10% of celiacs are also oat intolerant, even if those...
  19. Scott Adams
    You mentioned that you've been gluten-free for two years now, but is it possible that you're getting regular trace amounts in your diet, perhaps if you eat at restaurants, friend's houses, medications, makeup, have roommates who are not gluten-free, etc.? If you have celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity (around 10% of people have this, but...
  20. Scott Adams
    My thought here is that you could have either celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity, and now would be the perfect time to get tested, since you haven't gone gluten-free. Also, since you're eating gluten, it also may be possible that you've eaten more gluten, for example pasta or pizza, before you had the whiskey, but there is really no way...

    It would not erase the prior results, which were positive. Was she eating gluten daily before this more recent test? She would need to eat about 2 slices of wheat bread for 6-8 weeks before taking a blood test for celiac disease. If she wasn't doing this before her recent test, it could explain why the results were lower.

    This is a very interesting article that just broke on this topic, which we'll also do a summary on: Gut Bacteria Linked With Long COVID https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/967195 We've already written many summaries on research that ties gut bacteria imbalances as a possible trigger for celiac disease: https://www.celiac.com/search/?&q=bacteria...

    Welcome to the forum! There are two categories of gluten sensitivity, those with celiac disease (~1% of people), and those with non-celiac gluten sensitivity (~10% of people). Currently there isn't a test for those in the latter NCGS group, but both groups still must avoid all gluten to avoid symptoms and negative health effects. It sounds like...

    According to this site: https://permanentretainer.com/product/breelex-retainer-cleaner-tablets/ it's gluten-free and contains:
