I continued to have terrible issues after going gluten-free for 5 years. I saw a dietitian and nutritionist (same person) who did a mediator release test. I can’t eat rice or corn (the standard substitutes in recipes for celiacs) and a long list of other foods, including onion and garlic. I now can’t eat out or travel, except in our camper where I fix all...

I almost forgot that I discovered that handcream I was using had maltodextrin in it. This 'sugar' had to have been made from wheat. When I stopped using it, the rash vanished!!! We have to be so vigilant!!!

I had a rash for 6 years. The punch biopsy always came back as contact dermatitis. Doctors tried organic clays, steroids and much more. It would SLOWLY get better. As soon as I stopped using the products, back it came. It was the dog treats. They had a teeny bit of wheat in them. I am that sensitive to touching wheat. Now, my husband does not kiss me when...

When I get glutened, I vomit, get a massive migraine, have to go to the ER and get fluids and pain meds. I am in bed for at least 2-3 days. Going out to eat is a major, stressful event. I grill wait staff and it still happens sometimes. The last time, I wrote a letter to the restaurant, where I had eaten safely before. A trip to the ER is $3000!!!!
