    Okay, I have another question to add to this thread, but not exactly the same topic. I have problems with pumpkin if I have been glutened. I also had trouble with it when I first went gluten free. It get indigestion and heart burn. Is this just some sort of irritation? Leaky gut? If I haven't been glutened for a long time it doesn't bother me (well, it...

    It is hard because he has trouble gaining weight so he is always allowed to eat (he is in the 10th percentile for weight and actually stopped gaining at one point). He eats outside of "meal" time, with two-three "meals" when I am there and snacks in between. He doesn't eat a lot of bread as their meals are mostly rice based, but I've noticed that it is mostly...

    I nanny for two young children. One is just over 1 year old and the other is 3 years old. The one year old just started working on feeding himself and is now covered in gluten all the time. I keep getting glutened whenever I work with him. Giving up these jobs is not an option as I am a grad student and need the income (and there is no way I would be able...

    Just remember to grab your own rolls before people start passing them around and possibly cc'ing them. As soon as they touch food with gluten and then the rolls, you have the potential of cc. I also agree that you don't have to make an announcement of it. If they ask you can tell them, otherwise go and enjoy. It would be weird (I think) for you to bring...

    I was wondering what people's worst symptom is when you get glutened. I have been gluten free for about 2.5 years now. When I first started learning about celiac and what would happen when glutened I assumed that the GI problems would be the worst thing about being glutened. However, for me it ends up being the emotional dis-regulation and the insomnia. The...

    I went over to my roommate's parent's house and then to her aunts house for Thanksgiving. I was talking about it yesterday with her after I had been given a gift of cookies at work that I passed on to her. She said that when we were going over to her aunt's house her aunt (who I had never met) had wanted to make me food. She tried to get through to her aunt...

    I'm glad that things are going well for you. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and enjoy being with your family.

    Before (and now after a couple times when I get cc'ed) I have had to rush to get home. The problem is that before I got diagnosed I traveled strictly by subway. And you can't make those go any faster. They really should be required to have bathrooms at all subway stations. When things were really bad before diagnosis and I had days where I got D I would take...

    So at the same position, my supervisor was giving all the interns candy. She said that as she was packing it up she was hoping that I would be able to eat what she got. She had caught me on a day where I was really tired and had to literally think hard as to if I could eat the Hershey kisses she had given me (given they were out of the original package so...

    Does it annoy you when others make comments about your celiac. I was at practicum the other day and one of the interns brought in cookies. We were all waiting in the little kitchenette area and one of the staff (as people were eating cookies) 'at least you don't have to worry about eating these'. It was so frustrating. I just was like "uh, huh." When I really...

    I'm conveniently avoiding the Christmas party tomorrow because I have a client and supervision. They are doing white elephant exchange, with my luck I would end up with gluten filled food at the end of it.

    Thank you all for your replies. it really sucks. I wish that it would save it's damage for the GI track. Does anyone know what type of damage it causes to bones and joints? Does the damage to the brain make the problems you get when glutened become permanent? I am working really hard but lately have been getting glutened more lately (from CC). Ugh I hate...

    When I get glutened I tend to get bone and joint pain and neurological symptoms (there may be others but these are the big other two) in addition to the digestive problems. I was wondering if there is damage being done to those other body parts (ie bones and joints or brain) when I get trouble in those areas. Is it just inflammation in some areas, or is...

    Some people in this thread seem to think that you can't become homeless after you get diagnosed with celiac disease. Just because someone at one point had the ability to see a doctor who could diagnose them with celiac does not mean that they can not become homeless, or need to get food from a food bank. A lot of people who work or have homes, still need...

    When I get CC'd I can get bone, joint, and muscle pain. I haven't found anything that helps. Though when it makes my carple tunnel flare, I use a brace and ice my wrists.

    My dad actually biked across the country a number of years ago (averaging 80 miles/day, range from 60 to 120). I don't know how much long distance biking you have done, so you might already know this. But remember that the number of calories you will need to do this is going to greatly increase. So the amount of food you need to ingest is going to increase...

    Hello. Just so everyone knows I don't have any weapons in my home. My problem is that when this happens if I don't realize that I have been glutened I am terrified that my depression is back. The depression hasn't lasted more than three days, but during that time it takes so much effort to even get out of bed. I am in therapy for other things, and have dealt...

    When I get glutened I get crushing depression. How do people deal with it? I end up feeling suicidal when it happens. Help me please. I work really hard to keep it from happening, and it's only been CC. I can't imagine what would happen if I like went to a restaurant and they accidently gave me something with gluten in it instead of gluten free. Ugh.

    I get very very depressed when I get glutened. It usually lasts about three days. I think it is one of the hardest symptoms for me to deal with.
  20. Googles
    I hope it's okay that I add another one. Other people's pity when they are eating and you can't, and the look they give you.

    I was thinking they should do this on Top Chef.

    I get reflux when I am glutened. It sucks.

    My boss I work for nannying is really understanding and awesome. She always tells me to eat anything that I can when I am working at her house. One day a friend of hers came over with cake. She felt bad that I couldn't have any. I told her not to worry that I was fine. Then she asked if I could have brownies. She was then like "wait, those will have wheat...

    ARCHIVED Ironic

    That doesn't necessarily help as her story reports. That ONE chef isn't on the whole time they are open. So this could give patrons a false sense of security.
