ARCHIVED Ever Thought About Airborne Gluten?
Hyacinth replied to irish daveyboy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I think that airborne gluten is a definite danger to some individuals. My dad for instance can and does get sick from being in the kitchen while my mom is kicking up a dust storm of baking flour.

ARCHIVED What Is Your Response When People Say.....

ARCHIVED New Here

HI! I'm new here too. I also have taken myself off gluten, and have been off it for one week now. My dad was diagnosed with Celiac Disease about two years ago. I have suffered from chronic headaches and also migraines for many years. Suddenly about a week ago my boyfriend came up with the idea to take me off gluten and see if that helped. Holy Cow!...
