    So, can HFCS possibly have gluten in it? Or is it exclusively corn?

    It's just weird. Since I started the G/CF diet, I craved nothing. Sugar was disgusting (even fruits were way too sweet). Couldn't have coffee. I was completely satisfied with brown rice and a chunk of meat - I never overate. Now, all of a sudden, I can't stop eating peanut butter (straight from the jar) or other nuts, my stomach is as full as it can...

    *update- at first I wasn't going to the bathroom any more than usual - all the water felt 'stuck' inside of me. Now I am going more frequently. My mouth feels dry all the time. I think I will go in. The last thing I need is diabetes....

    No more urination than normal. I feel like I just gained 5lbs. I ate a lot today, which is somewhat unusual - I ate a lot of mixed nuts and I felt horrible afterward, but I just kept eating away. Checked the label and it warned about CC with wheat and other allergens. That's the second time I've done that...should have learned by now! I used to have...

    For the last 2 days I have been working sanitation in a plant and coming into contact with a fair amount of chemicals. Other than the the rash, night sweats, and bad acne breakouts(my face has become rather 'dormant' since I eliminated G/C), I am wondering if constantly feeling dehydrated has anything to do with chemical exposure? I have downed well over...

    The #1 reasons are obvious: to protect your health, and the elimination diet/challenge. Buf you are 99% sure you are celiac, would it still be helpful to be tested, for the sake of 'official' or 'medical' records? Also, I am coming across conflicting terminology regarding a 'celiac' person. Is a reaction to gluten considered an allergic reaction...

    ARCHIVED The First Visit To The Gi

    Chevelle posted a topic in Doctors

    I intend to go to a Celiac Specialist to confirm the celiac issue, but I need to go to a GI Specialist first. What is expected in the first visit? What questions are supposed to be asked/answered, etc? What do they do?

    If you are celiac, can you still be in gluten-laden environments? Or will inhaling it get traces of it to your throut, which you might swallow? Same thing with casein. Also, do celiacs tend to be hyper-sensitive to chemicals? Or is that not related?

    In a nutshell: I grew up always craving bread and anything including flour, cheese, and tomatoes - my meals consisted of bread. I literally did not eat my veggies until 2 years ago. I was EXTREMELY heavy on sports (gymnastics, track), and pretty much grew up with either fatique or joint pain. I was once tested for anemia because I had almost no energy...

    I have found that my throat constricts a little whenever I eat foods that have traces of gluten in (like packaged nuts that contain 'natural flavors', and Cherry Craisins (though I am not sure if it has gluten - but they do contain natural flavors). Is this typical?
