    Hey Jane where ya going today! I don't have a celiac diagnosis but gluten isn't good for me. About a year after going gluten free I developed a very similar looking rash on both elbows. It was extremely itchy. I realised I was eating a cereal with barley malt which was no longer on the safe celiac list here in the UK. I stopped eating the cereal and...

    Yes they are nice. Don't forget to check out the frozen berry cheesecake in tesco, it's fantastic. I found a new treat at one of the biggest stores last week, a fresh lemon meringue pie! Serves six, last night I ate half of it... And now for some reason I have something in my eye...

    I understand the science around distillation, but there appears to be at least a grey area on this question for some where gluten grains are used in spirits: https://www.verywell.com/will-whiskey-make-me-sick-if-im-gluten-free-562778 I didn't do well on whisky after going gluten-free and had already removed gluten based spirits prior to stopping drinking...

    Yes the crumpets are excellent. I have them quite often in the winter. Look and taste is excellent. They're probably not as chewy as the gluten ones but that's not really an issue as they are chewy in comparison to what I eat now.

    Wow! Didn't realise that was a possibilty! I've had the little biscuits they make, they're really nice and the only danger is finishing the entire bag at a sitting! The weird thing is that I wasn't that fussed about panettones until I couldn't have them any more, now I really want one The BeFree wraps are the best for burritos and the Newburn ones are...

    I only ever have black coffee, either espresso or americano (pretentious name annoys me but what can you do). It's listed as ok here: https://www.costa.co.uk/nutrition/Costa-ANI-data-November-2017.pdf so its only if there's cc that there would be a problem. I've been ok so far

    YES! I'd forgotten about those, they are delicious I will keep eye out for the Costa mince pie, I was in there last week and it was packed because the Xmas drinks were out. Amazing to see how coffee culture has caught on over here. Hope you are soon feeling better Christiana

    Yeah they looked fantastic didn't they? They had little mini stollen 'bites' some covered in chocolate Then there was the big stollen, which my family will be tucking into this xmas, maybe before the panetone. There were lots of other yummy looking things. BUT WE HAVE PUDDING So not all is lost!

    Aldi have their Christmas stuff out. They've got gluten free mince pies, I cheated and had one already, very nice... There's also gluten-free xmas puddings! Didn't cheat on that though. I have standards... Didn't see any gluten-free xmas cake though it shows one on their site.

    I'm trying to think of a chocolate treat you have over there that I miss. Nope... If one comes to mind I'll get back to you

    It's Tesco treat time again. The good news is they have a new chocolate gateau: The bad news is that it has replaced the strawberry one and I'm not as keen on it... I think this is in part because there's no shortage of chocolate desserts already whereas the strawberry one was something new. Anyway, it's 3 quid, very chocolatey and it gets a 6...

    Hi These papers may be of interest: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1785098/ http://casereports.bmj.com/content/2016/bcr-2016-214874.abstract They both suggest copper levels may be low. Perhaps something to check? Also just on this point: I fully respect your position of wanting evidence before you...

    I know you've posted that you have enough eggs as it is, but I'm going to sing the praises of the mighty omelette anyway Lily I have one each day and its a really easy way of bringing in different veggies as a filling, or maybe bacon or sausage if I'm feeling decadent. Lots of salads in summer, olive oil, cider vinegar and different things to go alongside...

    Thanks for the nice messages I was ok really, the discomfort didn't last too long and wasn't near a full glutening... I went on to experience similar symptoms once I switched to soft drinks, we have one in the UK called J2O, I was getting a similar horrid bloating and stomach churning such that I didn't want to go back. So on Friday and last night...

    I often go out to a local pub. I don't drink any more so my order was typically a black coffee (eat your heart out Keith Richards). Most of the time it was fine, but several times I got horrible bloating, stomach churning etc. I drink quite a lot of coffee, always black and usually decaf without a problem, but the coffee from the pub was an issue, but only...

    It looks like you have an issue with gluten. If you search the forum you'll see others with abcesses which resolved once gluten was removed. Testing for celiac is probably your next step as RWG says. You'll need to stay eating it for the duration of testing. Alternatively you could go gluten free as it does seem like it's a problem for you. The diet...

    I'm glad to hear you're doing well on the diet. We've talked before about it but you could do worse than look into getting some cognitive behavioural therapy or other help to deal with this. Otherwise you can find yourself going round in circles, never really improving. There are people out there enjoying their lives with far worse restrictions than...

    I'm just a few days into magnesium supplementation and noticing more vivid dreams already.

    Hi Juan and welcome Please don't take this the wrong way. I know you're also seeking to help but the others responding here have been careful to offer suggestions but not conclusions. That may be an approach you'd also like to consider. Whether the child has parasites or not it's clear that diagnosis via internet forum post is not without its risks. Also...

    Because coffee manufacturers are rational actors looking to make a long term profit. Whatever temporary savings are made from bulking out their product with potential allergens would be dwarfed from the destruction of that brand once people started being sick and the authorities, media and retailers started testing the product. Just think about it, it doesn...

    G'day and welcome Going gluten free helped but it didn't get rid of the SD. The best shampoo was Nizoral due to the Ketonacazole active ingredient. I also find dairy, especially milk is really not good for my skin. Check this thread out too: https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/75943-seborrheic-dermatitis/#comment-977173

    Hello again You've replied to an old thread so be aware some of the info above may be out of date... So I suspect this idea seems to come from the suggestion that NCGS primarily activates the innate immune system, triggering an instant response, whereas celiac triggers the adaptive immune system where a response is delayed due to the time to create...

    Ah just found your other post I will answer there!

    The blood test works by looking for the antibodies created when a celiac person eats gluten. You have to be eating gluten for the antibodies to appear. So this doesn't make sense! If you were already diagnosed you could use the blood test to establish whether the gluten-free diet was working or to test adherence to the diet, but if celiac hasn't been...
