Chapstick Brand
jknnej replied to minibabe's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've been using Chapstick all this time with no reactions so it must be gluten-free. I get sick really easily. -
sounds a lot like reflux. Ask your GI doc if you can try some Nexium for a month or two...see if it helps. It did wonders for me and I was in constant pain before I started taking it, a lot like what you've described

Blurred Vision / Dizzy

I wrote a post on this a couple of weeks ago. I went gluten-free Jan. 1. about a week later I was getting dizzy, light-headed, and my vision was weird. It's gotten better but I still get dizzy when I eat. I have asked both my GI doc AND regular practitioner. They took all kinds of tests. I don't...
