Glutenfreemanna: No I do not know whether I'm allergic to gluten or actually have celiac disease. I don't really think it's worth the trouble finding out, I'm going to stay away from gluten and try to treat whatever symptons are still present. UPDATE: I'm having that "on-top-of-the-world" feeling again. The pimples on my nose have cleared up(coincidence...

My father introduced me to Celiac Disease about a year ago. We went to a naturopath, had a blood prick test. Gluten, milk, eggs, and tobacco were positive. Gluten and eggs were the two surprises, the naturopath suggested going off gluten for 6 months and then try to reintroduce it, his light words made it sound less severe so I only got really serious with...

I think I'm just going to do my homework/study at lunch in the library or something. It doesn't help though when my mom and her boyfriend are baking pizza & breaded chicken wings in the oven(like 30 mins ago...). I told her that when you bake stuff with gluten in it, it may get in the air. She replied something like well, yeah maybe, but other people...

Two months ago I was feeling on top of the world because all my symptoms were completely gone. My anti-social personality(not social anxiety... Just when I feel like crap I don't want to talk to people/enjoy it) was gone so I made a lot of new friends, my knee pain was completely gone which had me flabbergasted, eczema... gone...flatulence...gone...more energy...

Would this suggest that I need to revisit what I'm allergic to? (I'm assuming that psawyer is right, suggesting that the product has no gluten)

Is it common for people to react to foods labeled gluten free? I seem to get an allergic reaction to these pepperoni sticks my mom often brings home (Labeled Gluten & Lactose free). I live in Canada so the enforced limit by Health Canada is 20 ppm. Another thing I'm curious about is if it's common for celiacs to react to, lets say a serving of a 20 ppm...

A girl offered me a bunch of candy hearts, put them on my desk, was a little reluctant but I ate one. After deciding that they probably don't have gluten I shoveled about 10 in my mouth. About 10 minutes later my vision went weird.... not blurry... I don't even know how to explain it but it was harder to concentrate. Since I got home I've had diarhrea and...

For myself it's a very odd pain. Nothing like an physical impact/injury. It just seems like your knees are brittle and aren't strong enough to support your weight. On days where the pain is very noticeable it's worse in the mornings, also on these "bad days" keeping my knee in the same position would be very uncomfortable, stretched out fully was the most...

I've been strictly off gluten, milk, and eggs for the past 2 months. As of three days ago knee pain that I've been cluelessly struggling with for two years is completely gone. Excessive mucuos for the most part is gone, and the last three days have been the best of my life. I'm happy, happier than ever before, literally crying through this remembering how...

Oh dear... I'm baffled, I've been eating this stuff for so long... How can I avoid this in the future? Do I need to research every food brand that I eat? and furthermore what does uses barely in the processing exactly mean? Is there somewhere I can read up on this process to expand my understanding?

For cereal I just find a gluten free one... not picky For milk i use Rice Dream: Water, White Rice, Brown Rice, Safflower Oil, Sunflower Oil, Canola Oil, Natural Vanilla Flavour, Sea Salt, Amylaze. I've been using this subsitute milk for probably 10 years.

Ok thanks, I'm going to look into my vitamin deficencies to make sure I can recover, I noticed in the side that their is gluten free vitamins. Would the regular vitamins I have contain gluten? And if they do contain gluten do they have to state it? I got an allergy test(blood prick test) about 2 years ago. Was surprised to find out I was allergic to wheat...

I'm 17 and I'm a celiac (recently diagnosed), I've been struggling with joint pain for a good portion of my life. As I'm getting higher levels of soccer my knees cannot handle the fatigue. It almost feels like my bones are brittle and cannot support my weight (after a decent amount of excercise) causing a somewhat throbbing/sharp pain, I get this same pain...
