    Back when I still thought I could eat things with corn and rice, I opted against trying Amy's because while the pizza may be gluten free the facility it is made in is not.

    Again, based on my understanding of the theory, it is entirely dependent on the specific antibodies your body has developed. Honestly, read the link. It is fascinating. I've taken too much space on this thread Sorry. I'll leave you all alone now.

    I understand what you are saying and this is a controversial subject. The theory makes sense, however, and understanding it has helped me significantly. And it is important to note that not everyone with celiac reacts to foods other than the standard gluten ones. We probably see a higher percentage here because you have to be pretty desperate to spend a lot...

    That blogger is an award winning Phd who spent the majority of her professional life in medical research.

    I'm posting late to this thread but the topic is important so am adding my thoughts just in case it helps someone else in the future. As I understand it, the theory behind cross reactivity (and yes, scientific research is beginning to document the problem, specifically regarding corn) is pretty basic. While a gluten protein chain is long and contains...

    Part of me wishes I could just get a PICC line and stop eating altogether :-) Who knows, maybe the DH is from accidental glutening. It takes so little. I'm considering going to stay elsewhere because I have no control over the kitchen here and fingers are constantly dipping into gluten-heavy products and then touching everything. Maybe I forgot to scrub...

    I. Can't. Stand. This. After counting myself lucky that amidst all of my terrible celiac symptoms at least I didn't have DH, I now do. And I think it is because of gluten free corn chips (Glutino). I have long suspected that a corn allergy is also at play - largely because within 30 minutes of eating popcorn I pass out cold for hours. I tried several...

    Do you remember how long this went on before the good days started consistently outnumbering the bad?

    After daily lurking, I've finally decided that being lonely with my AI issues is silly. So this marks my official move from 'Guest' to actual entity with a profile pic and everything. Before I introduce myself, I want to say thank you for being such a great resource over the last several months! My adjustment would have been far more difficult if I hadn't...

    Oh yes. After two years of constant, daily mega (mega, mega) stress coupled with undiagnosed gluten issues, my adrenals are wiped out. My doc has me on Metagenics Exhilarin (along with an A to Z of other supplements and a nutrition plan). I have a number of things going on (gluten intolerance, malabsorption related malnutrition - especially vita D, adrenal...
