CNV2855

I'm probably far more sensitive and to a lot more substances than your average poster here. I also have a sulphite intolerance in addition to being very sensitive to gluten, and I almost undoubtedly react to gluten free oats. Salicylates are also something I react to. The problem is that I do amazing on a diet consisting of potatoes and butter, with...

Heinz originally certified their original ketchup as gluten free and initially said their organic wasn't. I think that's changed and both versions are supposed to be gluten free. I tested three products this week with EZ gluten (down to 10ppm). Heinz original ketchup (not the organic) tested positive for gluten. I want to make clear that this bottle...

I'm having a real problem finding foods that I'm good with and I've always noticed that I've "felt" better when my diet is heavy in ENER-G breads. Everytime I stray and start adding other foods, especially other processed foods I get hit. Amy's, has always gotten me, and just recently I got glutened by a can of Van Camp's baked beans. Now that...

I get very little iodine in my diet. The rash flared from a can of Van Camp's Pork N Beans, the only processed food that I've eaten in weeks. With me, being glutened isn't about the GI symptoms - I have autoimmune symptoms that flare. I just tested the Van Camp's and it showed positive on my home testing kit. Awesome!

I just want to get confirmation. This is what my dermatologist STRONGLY believes is DH although all biopsies have been inconclusive. It flares when I eat gluten, becomes itchy, but hasn't disappeared in 4-5 years of being gluten free. This morning I woke up feeling like I got hit by a mack truck, some really, really bad pain. Later on, this rash started...

Apparently, acetimetophen is a salicylate free so I have no clue what is going on...

I have noticed that my face/neck start swelling up whenever I take acetemetophin painkillers or eat lots of tomatoes and other types of food. I had a dinner with a ton of spaghetti sauce the other night and I swelled up worse than I have in a long time, voice became hoarse, just was really out of it! It happens when I take painkillers as well. There...

I've been gluten free for roughly 4-5 years and my GI/endoscopy/blood results have all normalized but my DH rash is still there. I'm not positive it's DH but my dermatologist strongly believes it is; it's been biopsied but always inconclusive. She says I have to be eating gluten for the DH markers to show up on biopsy, so it's normal for the results to...

I'm almost 120% positive that I have sero-negative primary sjogren's syndrome so that could cause the inflammation. I feel so much better on prednisone but I can't take it long-term...

Ok the biopsy results were not completely normal. I don't know what any of it means because there isn't a plain english explanation but hopefully one of you guys can help me decipher this. A. The duodenal biopsies consist of small bowel mucosa having overall preservation of normal villous architecture. No villous blunting, villous atrophy, increased...

I am not the demographic that usually suffers from autoimmune disease. I was an otherwise healthy 17 year old one day, and very, very sick the next... almost completely out of the blue. I'm still fairly healthy considering what I've been through, but you don't see many young males get hit with autoimmunity like that. I have all of the symptoms of primary...

My biopsy results were "completely normal". I have been gluten free for four years and incredibly strict in the last few months, but I'd have expected at least partial damage. I have extremely adverse reactions when I get glutened, very bad GI problems, and a DH rash on my back that flares... but I can't believe everything is normal. I wasn't expecting...

The gastroenterologist I spoke to seemed very knowledgable and I asked about HBT for SIBO and he said that they no longer do the test because of a shortage in the reagents required for it... but that he'd definitely trial me with the antibiotics after the results of the biopsy come back. I probably don't have anything to worry about and I'm probably overreacting...

I have widened my diet but I had to because I was losing weight extremely fast on the GAPS diet. I just haven't felt well in the last few weeks/months. The only good thing I can say is that the acute pain seems to move around a lot, and if it was cancer I think it'd be stationary although I don't know. I guess I just need to wait for the histology results...

I was admitted to Methodist in Houston after experiencing abdominal pains, weight loss, loss of appetite, nausea, and diarrhea. I'm absolutely certain it's not gluten related because the DH rash on my back has been steadily disappearing as I've been more careful with my diet now than I've ever been. They gave me a CT scan with contrast and an MRI and...
