I am going to traveling across the country for a job interview in two weeks. The company is paying to fly my spouse and I out and they plan to "interview and show us around the city" for 3 days. My question is...should I let them know that I have Celiac and am unable to eat gluten prior to leaving? I know that at least one meal/day will be eaten with my potential...

Does anyone know if Almay Smart Shade Foundation is gluten-free or use it without issues? Thanks!

I used to think about getting cosmetic surgery from the swelling too (and I am pretty young, 27). But, as the swelling has diminished my skin has tightened back up. Also, I my derm prescribed me retin A cream to improve the integrity of the skin that was swelling and it looks much better. Things that have helped with my swelling are decreasing sugar intake...

I also woke up every morning with an extremely swollen face before going gluten-free. I have been gluten-free for about a year now and the swelling has improved about 90% but is still there (mostly around my eyes...so embarrassing, however, if I eat any gluten then the swelling returns fully. I suspect dairy might be an issue for me also and am about to eliminate...

This post is a bit old but I emailed the company and they are gluten free :-)

My favorite shampoo/conditioner is Pantene Pro V Fine to Volume. I also use Secret Unscented Solid deodorant. I have read contradictory things about pro-v and Secret products. Can anyone tell me if they use these products without issue? I would like to continue using them if possible. I have tried other products (Burts Bees, 100% Pure, ect) and don't like...

I have been gluten-free about a year now and I am still getting bad GI upset and somewhat swollen eyes in the morning. I notice that after I eat desserts or a lot of sugar I get gassy and have horrible D. I had two brownies (gluten-free) about an hour before bed last night and woke up with a very swollen face, headache, and basically I feel like I am hungover...

I am trying to plan my Honeymoon but want to make sure that I go somewhere that I won't spend my time getting glutened and sick. I am very open to any suggestions regarding locations/resorts anywhere (But I am leaning towards somewhere tropical) Thanks!

I have some questions that I could really use your help with. I suspected I had Celiac Disease about 14 months ago and began eating gluten free. My symptoms were bad D at least a few days/week, GI upset just about every day, bloating/pain in abdomen after meals, severe headaches daily, weight loss, anemia, severe mood swings after meals, severe lethargy...

Thank you all for your posts. I appreciate your help so much. This diet is definitely tricky and its hard to get answers from my doctor (he doesn't know much about Celiac). Its so nice to get help from this forum. I think I will stop eating nut thins and gluten-free oats for awhile and see if my symptoms go away completely. If a product says gluten-free...

I was wondering if any of you react to oats, even if they are certified gluten-free? I am still pretty new at this diet, but I feel great and then if I eat gluten-free oats (normally in cookies I get from a gluten-free bakery) I get my typical glutened symptoms, however, less severe than if I have wheat, rye, or barley. Maybe I am crazy or its something else...

I recently began working in a hospital and I am required to use the purel moisturizing instant hand sanitizer before and after leaving each patient's room. I have recently began getting my typical glutened symptoms and I was wondering if anyone knows if these sanitizers are gluten-free. My diet has otherwise remained the same. Thanks!

I was just wondering how long your symptoms last after you get glutened? I am still trying to get to the bottom of some of my symptoms and I feel like it takes a good 2 weeks for them to go away after eating gluten. For example, I am swollen for two weeks after I eat even small amounts of gluten. D doesn't normally happen for a couple of days. Do your symptoms...

Jill, Thank you so much for your post. My swelling started to go away completely....then just this past week it came back full force. Its really getting me down. The only thing I can think of is that my priest told me that I could use a gluten-free eucharist, but it turns out it was "low gluten". Its just hard for me to believe such a small amount of gluten...

Does anyone know if Patron XO Cafe is gluten free? I know that regular Patron is, but I am unsure about Patron Cafe. Thanks!
