    I hope you didn't take offence, TGK112. If so I sincerely apologize. Sometimes my mouth (or typing fingers) engage before my brain.

    CeliacSharon beat me to it. Coconut oil. You can use it as a mask overnight, then wash it off in the morning. Maybe use a little bit in the morning too and after it soaks in a bit, apply your make-up as usual.

    Chefwife8, please, listen to SquirmingItch. She knows what she's talking about. Our "friend" Mitchgam is totally mistaken and unfortunately he holds on tight to his false beliefs and refuses to listen to reason. If you have any doubts about that, read his posts here: https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=user...

    Yeah, remission is not the same as cured.

    And if you want unwaxed but can only find the waxed kind, you could always strip it off with a pair of zercon encrusted tweezers. (Sorry, I'll behave now.)

    Yes, Mitchgam, she IS right. Perhaps all of them WERE wrong. Or perhaps you have MISUNDERSTOOD what all of the doctors you have gone to said. You have been repeatedly shown the science and research from reputable sources on this topic, yet you still persist in repeating this FALSE idea. From everything you have said in previous posts, you do NOT have...

    I never even would have considered it. It's wax put on something grown in Montana. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smZA9Jv3qH0&list=RDsmZA9Jv3qH0

    You'll have to (probably) go through gluten withdrawal first. Headaches, mood swings, unsatiable hunger. It lasted a couple of weeks for me. Then at about three weeks I started feeling better and noticed my celiac symptoms lessening.

    I dropped nightshades and most of my joint pain went away, but I had terrible trouble with my wrist and it was getting worse. I've been on glucosamine for a week now and it really seems to be helping. I just started a separate thread about it with the details.

    I had stopped eating nightshades a couple of months ago because I was getting joint pain. My back pain went away but my left wrist seemed to be getting worse. I started taking glucosamine chondroitin complex one week ago today. Yesterday the writst seemed better finally. Still painful and still had trouble playing guitar (and I make my living with my guitar...

    Yes, I WILL be around when that pendulum swings back. But I'll be standing in the wrong place and it'll knock me in the head.

    Doughnuts. Eat LOTS of doughnuts. Eat raised doughnuts. Eat old fashioneds. Eat them chocolate covered and glazed. Eat some crullers and some jelly doughnuts. Eat some doughnut holes. Eat some with powdered sugar. Eat some Boston cream doughnuts. Eat every doughnut that comes to hand and please, think of me while you're doing it.

    Speaking of waffles, all I can find now are the Belgian waffle irons. I like the waffles with the smaller holes better. No, I haven't looked online yet, but it makes me feel old. It seems that all of my favorite things are being replaced with stuff OTHER people like better. (grump, grump, grump.)

    If it's working then it's working. I can't get gluten-free cat food here so my little one gets Purina Organic. I handle it pretty much the way you describe and I haven't gotten sick yet.
  15. bartfull
    How about you get her another dish and have the boyfriend fill it ahead of time so all you have to do is pick up the empty dish and replace it with the full one? That way you don't risk breathing in the dust and all you'll have to do is wash your hands.

    OK, other than the cast iron I would put money on dairy being a problem. Lots of celiacs have trouble with dairy at first because the part of us (the villi) that is damaged is the part that digests dairy. Get your new pans and go completely off dairy for a while and see of that doesn't do the trick. Most of us get dairy back after we've healed (six months...

    I never thought about penicillin being made on bread. I don't know if they still do it that way or not but I do know I have been allergic to it since I was a little kid. I got that from my Dad's side of the family though and it was Mom who had celiac.
  18. bartfull
    So have you gotten a diagnosis of celiac or have you just concluded that's what you have? I am self-diagnosed and my doctor agreed that with the family history (my Mom had an official diagnosis) and the results of the diet that I do indeed have celiac, but I was never tested. No insurance, you know?
  19. bartfull
    Yes, cast iron is porous and if gluten was cooked in it before it is contaminated. They say if you put your cast iron in the oven on the cleaning setting (if you have an electric oven with that feature) it will kill the gluten. Then just reseason it. Were these the same symptoms you had before going gluten-free?

    Hunt's is a Con-Agra product. Con Agra is GREAT about labeling. Hunt's is safe.

    I invite ALL of you to come on out this summer. The Black Hills are (IMO) the most beautiful place in America. You can see Mt. Rushmore, the Needles Highway, Spearfish Canyon, Hot Brook Canyon, The Wildlife Loop in Custer State Park with bison, elk, deer (both mule deer and white tails), antelope, mountain goats, big horn sheep, coyotes, foxes, prairie dogs...

    Be careful with those PB cups. The regular ones are gluten-free but the holiday ones are not.
  23. bartfull
    Have you read the Newbie 101 thread in the coping section? That might give you some other ideas where it may be coming from.
  24. bartfull
    It sounds like it might be yeast as others have mentioned. Here is an article about it from BBC News: Open Original Shared Link

    Could be getting it at school. Play-Doh is full of gluten. Some schools do "projects" using flour too. Or it could be kids sitting next to him at lunch and getting gluten crumbs on his food. Or sharing snacks like chips which are gluten-free but are contaminated by gluteny fingers reaching into the bag.
