  1. Just wanted to come back and let anyone in a future search involving that medication know that it was perfectly fine. No issues and I've been taking the pills for almost 2 weeks.
  2. A paraphrase from Peter Green and Rory Jones' book Celiac Disease: A Hidden Epidemic: Celiacs show higher amounts of insulin antibodies, which tend to go down on a gluten free diet. Therefore, undiagnosed celiac disease can put you at risk for developing diabetes and many people end up with both. Those with both tend to get their celiac disease diagnosis...
  3. Thank you! You are a fount o' knowledge, as usual!!
  4. Hi All, I am about to start a new prescription, so I just checked with the manufacturer. Online this is their statement: Contains Gluten:Product contains corn starch which contains a small amount of gluten, so it is not gluten free. However, it does not contain gliaden gluten, the type of gluten associated with celiac sprue. I called to talk to someone...
  5. Thank you!! This is exactly what I wanted to know.
  6. Hi Ladies- The first thing I thought was allergies- most likely something related to food (as a child I broke out in hives to strawberries and chocolate milk and it eventually faded away). But seeing as though I don't have and therefore aren't familiar with DH along with her genetic chances, I wanted to check. So I'm assuming that DH sticks around without...
  7. Hi All, This question is regarding my 2 year old niece who has been breaking out in hives as of late. I am a celiac without DH symptoms, my sister is likely a celiac but undiagnosed (gluten free), my niece's paternal grandmother and great grandmother are also celiac. So the kid is in the middle of a genetic minefield. Apparently, she has been breaking...
  8. Open Original Shared Link I found the Italian version of this book helpful. A helpful and thorough blog particular to Paris may be all you need, though.
  9. Hope he is better by now!! For future readers, I would suggest checking all medication. Sometimes we forget that we're taking pills for other things. I too was struck with a mild fever, exhaustion, loss of appetite and I KNEW I had stupidly glutened myself the day before. So I searched this forum and found a couple people who said they experienced a mild...
  10. Your daughter's reaction is typical. What Barty said absolutely applies to American schools. They have special plans they are required by law to adhere to if a child has a medical diagnosis. I'm not sure how that works in Scotland, but I would suggest having a conversation with school officials to start. Being glutened is too horrid to make a habit of...
  11. Also helpful in general: http://thelowhistaminechef.com/histamine-intolerance-symptoms/
  12. Sweetheart, Go to this thread and read immediately: https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/105835-mast-cell-activation-syndrome-mcas/ Here is a full list of symptoms: http://www.mastocytosis.ca/signs.htm It can explain: itchiness brain fog (impaired cognitive function) rashes hair loss joint pain low iron low B12 depression anxiety dizziness...
  13. No one in their right mind would eliminate gluten unless it didn't make them feel better. It's far too much work!! Continue to do what you know is best for your body. The celiac blood tests are also very fickle. Do you have DH? The blood tests for people with DH are only positive 40% of the time and 100% of people with DH have celiac disease. You most...
  14. Mast Cell Activation Syndrome is another possibility. https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/105835-mast-cell-activation-syndrome-mcas/ Here is a complete list of symptoms: Open Original Shared Link Makes sense with fatigue, headaches, dizziness, muscle weakness, depression, anxiety, iron deficiency, GI issues including bloating and reflux, thyroid...
  15. I have not been gluten free as long as you have been, but I have tried the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol recently. If anything it has been successful in highlighting my sensitivities and giving me the space to see that I react negatively (less negatively than gluten, but still negatively) to other foods. It is also supposed to help to heal the gut lining. ...
