ARCHIVED I Think I Found The Glutening Source......
sleer posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
So, I had been feeling really crummy for a few weeks and could not identify a source of gluten. I thought maybe cross-contamination but if that was the case it would have to be persistent because my symptoms were not getting better. I went so far as to inquire about the vodka used for a vodka sauce I had twice during my reaction period. Then today for... -
Bloating was always a gluten symptom of mine. My belly swells huge, almost looks like a pregnant belly. I've been accidentally glutened on Friday. I'm making my way through my symptoms and eating naturally gluten free food, etc. But my belly is still bloating after eating and it is Monday. I don't remember if the bloating went away immediately after...

I've been reacting to something and I'm certain I haven't been getting any gluten. I've been logging food items and I think I may be reacting to corn. I've done some research and there seems to be conflicting information about what you have to avoid for a corn sensativity, whether it is all corn in all forms (i.e.) corn starch, and other corn derivatives...

ARCHIVED Azo Urinary Relief
sleer replied to sleer's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thank you for the reply. I did check the website and see the notice that the cranberry medication is gluten free, however, when you select the urinary relief (AZO standard) product I am not seeing any FAQ about gluten. -
ARCHIVED Azo Urinary Relief
sleer posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Does anyone know if the AZO urinary relief (formerly AZO Standard) is gluten free. I am having awful gluten symptoms and can not pinpoint where it is coming from. When I checked on this I noticed that the product had changed (renamed and repackaged) and they removed their gluten free notice from the FAQs. I am going to try and contact the company but if... -
I was glutened almost 2 weeks ago through cross contamination. I am still have constipation and major bloating. I know everyone is different but on avergage how long does your bloating and symptoms last? I'm usually so careful I can't remember how long it takes for it to go away. It's so uncomfortable. Just looking for some encouragement that the end...

We have a shared kitchen. It hasn't been a terrible issue yet. My husband is very cautious. I'm replacing our kitchen utensils (spatulas, etc) and wanted to know if there was a material that would be more resistent to cross contamination problems. I think I read that wood utensils were a no-go? How about silicon? Obviously they would be washed in the...

Does anyone know if the Skinny Girl drink products are gluten safe. I emailed the company about the Skinny Girl Margaritas and they emailed back and said those were okay. They now have sangria and cosmo drinks. I have not yet heard back from the company (they are a bit slow). However, I was wondering if anyone else knew. Thank you!

ARCHIVED Has Anyone Been Glutened And Not Had Symptoms?
sleer posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm not talking about an on-purpose glutening, but when you ate something you thought to be safe and then learned it wasn't. Only you didn't have any noticeable symptoms. I'm just curious. -
I've had some symptoms that I had attributed to gluten reoccur over the last several days. I've been gluten free for about a year and have had some accidental misteps but for the most part I've always been able to trace it back. It's very important to me that I trace it back to something for piece of mind purposes and so that I do not make the same mistake...

If you get glutened from cross contamination or a small/slight ingestion of gluten are your symtpoms less severe and/or do do you notice that you are not affected for as long a period of time?
-
Here's the background. I was not diagnosed with a blood test or biopsy. I was diagnosed by elimination diet. By the time I got to the Dr. (long story but it was a new Dr. and it took a while to get in as a new patient and I had waited a while before calling anyway) after feeling like I had the flu for months my brother-in-law who is a dietician suggested...

Is Horizon Organic Sour Cream gluten free? -
ARCHIVED Hunt's Diced Tomatoes With Sweet Onion
sleer replied to sleer's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks y'all! -
Anyone know if Hunt's diced tomatoes with sweet onion is gluten free? I don't see anything on the label to be concerned about but thought I would ask if someone knew for sure.

What are the symptoms of having a reaction to sulphates (or is it sulphites?). I know migraines/headaches can be one but are there others? sore throats? chills? I've tried doing some internet research but what I've found is pretty vague.

ARCHIVED Itching But No Rash
sleer replied to sleer's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Thank you Reba. I wasn't thinking I had DH since I don't have any type of rash. I just have an itchiness and I have yet to pinpoint what it's related to and was hoping others could shed some light on it. I haven't been gluten free for that long so it's hard to tell if its going to go away with that change. -
ARCHIVED Itching But No Rash
sleer posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I know DH is one of the horrible and prevalent symptoms of gluten allergy/celiac. But I'm wondering if anyone has experienced itching (pretty much all over) but without a rash as a symptom. I had it mostly on my side, back (occassionally) my foot and down there..... -
I keep reading about the Clan Thompson website and a list of gluten free and non gluten free foods, products, etc. Where is this website and how do I find it. I tried to google it but all I found was a blog but couldn't find any particular lists. Any help would be appreciated.

ARCHIVED Gluten And Lotions, Hair Products, Etc
sleer posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi everyone, I see there is great debate on whether or not you need to be concerned with non-food products and their gluten content. I do not have DH (or at least haven't) as a symptom but was wondering if anyone has experienced any other symptoms from beauty products. Specifically, I noticed my keratin treatment contains wheat protein. I use it after... -
So, this all started in June of last year when I just wasn't feeling "right". I had this horrible lump in my throat that wouldn't go away (felt like mucus), I was having abdominal pain (which they DX as ovarian cysts and although there were cysts there the surgeries to remove never got rid of the pain), I would be constipated a lot (but I'd had that for...

ARCHIVED Gluten And Wine?
sleer posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Has anyone experienced gluten symptoms from wine? Specifically white wine? I've been getting mild symptoms after having white wine the main symptom being the lump of mucus feeling in the throat and I'm wondering what that is. I know wine is gluten free so it seems odd that it would be a glutening symptom. I'm wondering if it's just causing some GERD?... -
ARCHIVED Throat Issues
sleer posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
One of my symptoms of glutening seems to be the sensation that there is mucus lodged in the back of my throat. Almost like I need to constantly cough something up; however, there is simply nothing there. I've read this is also a sign of silent reflux and I tried treating it with Prilosec before being directed to a Dr. for gluten. I was wondering if this... -
ARCHIVED Gluten And Eye Floaters
sleer posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Has anyone experienced "floaters" as a symptom of gluten allergy and/or celiacs? I'm talking about the spots you see floating in your line of vision. Either seen as spots, flashes, or dark lines? -
ARCHIVED Gluten And Candida - Is There A Connection?
sleer posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I've been trying to research this for a while now (well since I found out my issues were related to gluten) and I'm wondering if anyone on here has any thoughts on the subject. I've found some conflicting reports and quite frankly my Dr. was pretty dismissive of the idea of candida anyway. The reason I question it is because I seem to get the feminine infections...
