  1. I don't believe I have. I'm a bit of a label freak since my son has a soy intolerance. I cook from scratch for the most part, but the few commercially prepped foods I purchased I went online to doublecheck (ingredients such as modified food starch and the like). All were listed as gluten free. I don't eat gluten free bread, so the toaster isn't a culprit...
  2. I have been gluten free for 10 days now and initially the results were startling. I felt a thousand times better! I still feel better than I previously did, but some of my angioedema is trying to rear it's ugly head and I feel like the fatigue is creeping back up. I haven't accidentally glutened, so I'm wondering if this is a result of the gluten leaving...
  3. I had been off gluten for about 3 days when I noticed I could see things more clearly. Like the film in my eyes disappeared. I've only been gluten-free for a week and a half but I'm NEVER going back!
  4. AF started this week. Unlike every other month, I didn't have horrible PMS. My mood stayed somewhat stable, I didn't have insane bloat and my cramps were minimal. And I've only been gluten-free for a week. I can't believe I'm feeling so much better so quickly. This is crazy!
  5. I developed preeclampsia during my pregnancy and consistently spilled protein. They had to induce me at 37 weeks because my BP was unreal. Could this be linked to gluten at all?
  6. "You are describing a pretty classic intolerance to gluten. The fact that you tested negative for celiac disease does not alter this. You should, IMHO, stop eating gluten immediately. It is killing you. You did not tell us about the rheumatologist, and are you still taking prednisone? Have you had a bone density scan and had your Vitamin D levels checked...
  7. I am only recently figuring out the gluten connection. I have an 'unspecified auto immune disorder' and angioedema. I developed preeclampsia during my pregnancy and spilled protein like crazy. I have been gluten free less than a week and already feel much better. So much so that if my chronic kidney and pain issues resolve themselves, I would consider...
  8. It's very interesting to note that my mom was told to do an elimation diet on me when I was a toddler ('78-79) to find the source of my allergies. She tried the best she could but they didn't have any real resources back then. She was pretty healthy too, making me smoothies with yogurt (she said you had to get that from health food stores because it wasn...
  9. Hello, my name is Anna and I'm new to this. I have a lot of questions so please be kind! In 1999, when I was 21, I started having severe hives. My knees, ankles and wrists swelled up, became inflamed and hot, and my hands were so badly swollen I couldn't clench my fist. I passed out in my doctors office due to low pressure, was given a script for prednisone...
