  1. It's a spectrum, I get celiac symptoms, not allergen symptoms. How is food being cooked not a problem? Does wheat magically become non- airborne even thought it's a crumbly substance that's been heated? (No) I don't think that's the case, cooked wheat is just as bad as uncooked wheat as far as I have learned. I am having difficulty seeing how cooked food...
  2. Unfortunately with the Allergist I saw, I had to press her to put wheat and soy on the test. She's basically a crappy doctor, she might be good on paper but I need to find one that actually listens to patients. She was only interested in treating my grass/pet allergies, which really don't affect my life. The more and more I look though, I find people that...
  3. I don't quite understand your post. I am blood positive, as well as skin tested for extra sensitivity. There are many articles (and posts on this forum), that prove quite the opposite of what you are saying. You may be getting a small reaction despite thinking you are fine, are are just lucky enough to not be very sensitive, and are more like someone with...
  4. Hey, thanks for the amazingly detailed response - The multiple illness thing's a pain! If I had to choose, I'd get rid of my food allergies, from 2005->2012ish despite having Type I Diabetes nothing really slowed me down, and I didn't really feel any different until I had to start avoiding airborne wheat/soy. I used to see a counselor, until I realized...
  5. The thing is I did shower with my mouth shut - I would usually say , "I don't shower like a trout", it didn't matter much! I'm no stranger to bringing my own food - it's avoiding other's food that's become the big issue for me, I've been packing my own lunches since I was diagnosed Diabetic in 2005. I think I just have hyper sensitive Celiac's, as I...
  6. Honestly I am not 100% sure, I got blood tested positive for celiacs, and have all of the usual celiac issues, joint paint, sleep apnea, stomach issues, have had vitamin deficiencies, but also tested positive for a wheat/soy allergy as well, however I don't have anaphlyactic reactions, just the usual celiac symptoms. I am planning to get tested for MAshimoto...
  7. If you want there to be no conflict and for her to be healthy and happy, go completely gluten free. People tend to get more sensitive over time as they avoid wheat more, so if you want to it to be a happy long-term relationship, hop on board the boat. Really there is no other true answer, any bit of gluten you bring into your life, increases her chances...
  8. Yeah you have to looked very carefully for the made on shared equipment label, Amy's is no good.
  9. You need to get a REALLY thick, well fitting dust mask and gloves/spare clothing, or stop feeding horses, one or the other, otherwise you will suffer over time. There have been multiple studies of celiac farmers suffering from feed. You either can't handle /be near the feed, or you need to take so many precautions it will almost make sense to have someone...
  10. After five years, the only thing I have learned is trust no one. Really, unless they are in the exact same diet regiment as you, they will screw up. The best advice I can give is just worry about yourself, and as sad as it sounds, give up on others trying to help you, and give up on trying to change others unless they are like your mom, and really on board...
  11. Flour is your mortal enemy if you have Celiac's, really, it goes EVERYWHERE. When it is cooked, it's still wheat, and it gets into the air. Also it's contaminating any surfaces you might need to cook off of later. I just wanted to add it took my family almost 4 years to really understand and get my condition, and I even had my sister (who isn't the world...
  12. Things that won't clean up completely without some serious cleaning power - cutting boards, teflon pans, wooden surfaces, cloth In my opinion, it's not a good idea to risk it and I would cease allowing any gluten in your kitchen, or at the very least allowing it to touch any surface you cook on or eat off of. My parents eat a lot of flour and soy...
  13. Hey guys, 1rst post, I've got Type 1 Diabetes(10 years), Sleep Apnea(2ish years), and Wheat and Soy Allergies(blood test positive for celiacs 5 years ago), and early in 2014 I felt I was reacting REALLY strongly to wheat in the air, which I know gets people sick from, but I feel like I am extremely sensitive. So I got a skin-poke-test for allergies, and...
