For some of us, it's not as simple, IrishHeart. I constantly have to defend myself. No choice. Either, explain to people or they will mess with my food, put their hands in my chip bag , drink from my cup. I have to explain and when they don't believe me or don't understand, I have to defend myself. Otherwise, I'll end up with no drink, no food, and no friends...

Celiac is an autoimmune disease:)

Sheetrock dust has gluten in it? I went to look at houses with my friends just for fun and we went to one that was in the middle of being built. As we were walking around everything was covered in some sort of dust( Sheetrock, wood...?!) I was obviously breathing it in, I could feel it in my lungs. Later that night my eyes got all swollen and red, itchy and...

After being diagnosed with celiac and recently dairy intolerant...I never thought I'd have a nice piece of bread and butter, or a bagel with butter ever again! I found Glutino English muffins, Jillian's French rolls, and earth balance spread....I have been so happy:) mmmmm I love eating a nice buttered roll that tastes GOOD! It took me two years to find good...

If doctors don't know much about celiac (which clearly they don't) then maybe they were wrong. Your stomach can be inflamed for many reasons. Damage to villi is the clear marker of celiac. You might wanna eat gluten for a few months before you get tested to make sure it's accurate though:) monk lady, just as a side note, she said she DIDNT feel better when...

Are there any big brands who's gluten free products may be contaminated with "gluten free oats"? I have had a rash on my fingers which the doctor said was eczema but none of the prescription creams are working! I know i react to gluten free oats, so now I'm wondering if something possibly may be contaminated with oats thanks... And hope you get well soon...

While I was there they were packing up dozens of cupcakes for people who were coming to pick them up. They were running out of food cause so many people were ordering! They said they have been really busy and had super good business. Good for them! I think gluten free stores are going to be doing better because so many people are doing this as a "fad " diet...

Thank you so much for posting this! I read this the day before I went to new jersey. On our way home today, we stopped there because it was literally on the way. I got all kinds of goodies that were amazing! YUM! Before I bought the bread, they let me sample it. When I bit into it, I just started crying right there in the store. I couldn't help it because...

My question is, what triggered your celiac? Did you one day randomly feel sick and it just never stopped til you were diagnosed, or was it a gradual onset of symptoms? I'm still trying to figure out what triggered mine. I was 11, and was about to get in the shower one night when I suddenly felt severely nauseous. I thought it was a 24-hour stomach...

To the second question, no. I had awful nausea all the time and I would eat saltine crackers or starchy foods like toast or something to try to calm my stomach...little did I know it was making things a lot worse!

To me, those kinds of fast food places are just way too risky to eat at! Is it worth the risk of eating there? Not to me. I've been glutened by Wendy's, and never went back. At places like that, everything is just made in the same spot, whether grilled, fried or whatever. All it takes is walking into any of those restaurants and watching how they prepare...

I'm feeling more nauseous than the other end...lol! Thanks for the replies....well I've been gluten free for almost 2 years and eat a good amount of processed foods, so I'm wondering if maybe one of the ingredients don't agree with me? Idk...but that's super interesting about the mineral oil! I have been trying to eat less processed foods (which by the...

I have always loved Swedish fish and they are gluten free (according to the company) and since I've cut out gluten and dairy they have been my go-to sugary snack. I bought some yesterday and ate them but felt sick to my stomach. I just ate some more 2 minutes ago and now feel sick again does anyone know if they are for sure gluten free? Im not having a reaction...

Thanks guys! Yes I do feel a lot better! My lightheadedness is so much better! I used to run off of stages because I would feel so dizzy but on Sunday I sang with a group of girls in a service at my church...and I stayed up there for the whole song and didn't wobble or have to hold onto anything! Things are getting better....slowly but surely!

WOOOOHOOO! I have been as pasty white and pale as can be for my whole life. Like a sickly looking white....going gluten free didn't help that, but recently I found out that I'm severely anemic so doctor told me to take Iron. After taking it for 3 weeks , I noticed today that I am actually getting some color! My cheeks look a little pinker, and my arms actually...
