    I am still learning about celiac. Swansons broth is unsafe. (made me sick) Unless it is printed on the label, it is not safe. I have used the Swansons "cardboard" container, which it is labeled gluten free. When I have been glutened, it always takes the skin reaction the longest to heal. I thought for a awhile I was touching gluten or soaps, shampooes...

    Unless it is stated on the contaner, gluten free, I would not use it. I know I used a can of Swansons beef broth and it made me sick. Swansons does have gluten free, but it is printed on the label. There is a difference.

    Wow! Are you sure it is the chocolate? I am still trying to figure this out. I have read that M&M's and Snickers are safe, but my DH tells me different. I wonder if the vanilla in these chocolate goodies are more the problem. While I don't have a gut reaction as I do with gluten foods, (plus many other symptoms), I do have the skin reaction. I am...

    You might try the opposite approach...which is try treating that man like a king and tell him how thankful you are for every good thing that he does. NO, it is not fair to you or anything close to it, but possibly it will start something in him to make him change. With him throwing the toaster out, tells me he does care, maybe encouragement instead of...

    Maybe... the rainbarrel affect. If that is how it works, maybe when you started you did the strict diet and the healing process began, ( the less in your rainbarrel. ) As you added foods that may or may not have gluten, maybe started filling up your rainbarrel until you are full and spilling over (sick) again. I would go back to basics.

    The steak...was it fresh or was it frozen? It took me three months to figure out that the frozen chiken I was grilling had been frozen in a broth. The broth solution made me sick, and the company told me it was safe...not so!

    Your meat...fresh or frozen before cooking??

    I am not a kid, I am 58, but had similar symptoms. Went to doc, nuero's, and emergency rooms, only to be told what it wasn't. After going gluten free, symptoms disappeared. (about 3 months later.)

    Yes, it sounds like you got glutened...sorry! Did the ham have carmel coloring? I use the Hormel canned ham, it is safe. I also do not use mayo or pickles because of the distilled vinegar, it makes me react.. My brother brought me some gluten free (on the label) corn chips (Great Value) and they glutened me, so beware of even the some of the gluten free...

    At first, I had other symptoms that I now know are celiac. When I started losing a pound a day, I also was losing a handful of hair a day and my teeth became loose, my heart rate skyrocketed, plus multiple other symptoms, so I really wouldn't even think about it, to be a good way to lose weight. I am chubby and now that I am gluten free, and intestines...

    I agree with ravenwoodglass...distilled vinegar. A lot of Great Value products say gluten free but if it has any distilled vinegar, it doesn't pass my lips...makes me sick.

    I too, am the celiac wife. I absolutely hate that my husband has given up a lot of the foods we used to enjoy! We've been married for 37 years and while there have been many nice gifts given over the years, one of the best was when he surprised me with a toaster... just for me. I then realized it wasn't so much the food, either gluten or non-gluten, it...

    I have the rough areas on thumb and two fingers on right hand. They also crack or split. I don't have any itchy areas and I didn't have any trouble with skin until after going gluten free. I also thought it could be topical, but after doing some extreme things, I have found that it is just after ingesting (hidden) gluten. And it heals after gluten is out...

    What kind of chicken? I have just discovered that frozen chicken (Koger's) makes me sick. I had emailed them about the indregredients before eating, and they told me it was ok, but I think differently now. They freeze it in a broth solution, so it won't stick together when frozen. I think the solution may be the culprit for me, am going to call or email...

    Paranoia! Yep, I feel that way! I have been really careful and even eliminate food that shouldn't have any gluten, but after eating, maybe I have a reaction, then I think, was it the food, was it was the can opener, or a breeze that flew over the dogfood bowl or who knows? My husband is supportive and yet will reach for a handful of nuts after eating a...

    Wow! I wonder how many of us have been treated for Lyme's? I did have a bite (might not have been a tick) after staying in a dog friendly motel when traveling, a week later I was sick. I had been to doctors with nothing being dianosed, it seemed smart to be treated for Lyme's. Two tests were both negative. Was sick with symptoms for about 6 weeks, then...

    58 years old. Thought I was healthy as a horse, and proud of it! I got sick one evening about a year ago. Took about 6 months to figure it out. One of the things that was hard for me, was accepting that I was born with it! I may have had a few indicators, but nothing that would indicate celiac to someone that knew nothing of celiac. ( I had my gall bladder...

    ARCHIVED Worried!

    TES replied to caek-is-a-lie's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I think it might be zero tolerance for people, healing. I did it again! Yesterday, I wasn't home and I used a can opener to open my gluten free food, not thinking about the can opener contaminating food. Today, I am paying for that, symptoms not near as bad, but I do have symptoms. Bummer!
