Introducing Gluten To The Baby At Risk For Celiac Disease

Baby Claire is my fourth baby, my “last” baby, and one of the greatest gifts of my life. She is the first baby I’ve had since being diagnosed with Celiac Disease and going gluten free. Because of this, I spent a lot of time during the postpartum period obsessing/fretting/freaking out about if/when I should expose my dear baby to gluten. I felt that I needed to do everything that I could to protect her from developing celiac disease. As usual, my husband was much more laid back and calm about the

Celiac Disease And Pregnancy

Although I am pretty sure that I had Celiac Disease for more than two decades before my diagnosis, I was not diagnosed until after my 3rd child was born. Looking back, my diet during my first 3 pregnancies was a gluten-filled nightmare. I am actually glad that I have no idea how sky-high my celiac antibodies probably were while I was pregnant with my oldest kids.   There has not been a ton of research on celiac disease and pregnancy, but based on the work that has been done, I have learned tha

I'm Justin, I'm 21 years old, and here I am, it's 1:40 in the morning, I have to be up at 4:45 to get ready for work. Tonight, as happens some nights, I cannot sleep, something unsteady rushes through me.

Super New With This

PLEASE HELP!.I found this site via word of mouth, and am hoping to find some help. I had my gull (sp?) bladder taken put over a year ago, and about 6 mo after, started having severe digestion and stomach issues. Thousands of dollars later- and numerous test- they've told me my gastric emptying is slower than normal. WHOOOHOOOO!! I am miserable most of the time, bloated and cannot eat. I've very recently decided to try and cut out dairy and gluten, and so far so good. I also get a severe throbbin

Had Spices On Fish. Not Sure If Safe....

ok. im extremely new to this site and celiacs.... so bare with me please! i had blackened cat fish at work on a lunch break and had a horrible reaction within 15 min of so after eating it. i figured it was fish and it wasnt breaded or anything so it would be safe. the only thing i could think of is that maybe it was contaminated by a piece of bread they put in the to go box or the spices they used like maybe the red pepper or something.... anyone had a reaction to spices or seasonings or similia

Trial 1 With Zglutn: Has Anyone Else Tried This?

Ok for those of you who do not know me I travel a lot. So from time to time I accidentally ingest gluten in one form or another. For instance I found out today that Sodium Starch Glycolate is technically gluten and can cause a full reaction in someone who is as sensitive to it as I am. Thanks to #glutenfreeinsc post I now know what I was getting in my diet that was causing a reaction. So I've decided to start trying different things that can help me either get better faster once I ingest glu

Celiact: A Brief Experiment

I tried Celiact this week. For two and a half days only -- and then I had to stop.   It seemed like a great idea. It has a ton of stuff in it, all of which I was taking separately and some of which I had on order and didn't have access to. I don't have anywhere to buy gluten-free vitamins, since I live in Japan and they aren't very gluten-free-friendly here, and the US bases stock what the servicemen want, and that doesn't seem to be the same stuff I want. So everything comes to me from Ama

Cheese Requiem

I've lost cheese!   I put two and two together and am now on a two-week casein elimination diet. HOLY COW. It's day 4. (On day 2, my rennet arrived in the mail. It was a sad day.)   I just made a dinner for my husband and me that took an army of hands. There was my gluten-free pasta, his gluten-ful pasta, my homemade meatballs with fennel seeds, his homemade meatballs with parmesan.   Why not make gluten-free pasta for both of us? Because it's freakin' expensive and a waste on him.

Mommy, Your Dress Is Too Big.

I have always emphasized eating to be healthy and did not focus on my weight or figure. I am somewhere around a month (?) into my rotational diet and also began pancreatic enzymes and vitamin B recently. My weight began at around 200 6 years back. I lost 30 lbs when I began a supplement program with my chiropractor. My weight had become relatively stable at 170. That seemed an okay weight at 5'7" since I am nearing 50 years old.   The last week I've noticed my face is looking thin. I h

gluten-free Starter Kit Arrived, Rocky Start

Everything I ordered when I went gluten-free arrived in a heap in the mail today. We have a slow boat from the States, and none of this is available locally that I can tell. I got my freeze-dried probiotics, my medical powder for leaky gut, and my gluten-free jerky. I already have digestive enzymes.   The probiotics seemed great. I mean, no problems anyway. But I had a mild reaction to the jerky and a slightly heavier reaction to the medical drink. All are gluten-free, but all also have

Breaking My Fast

I haven't been able to eat normal food without problems for as long as I can remember. The problems used to be worse, but I unconsciously identified some as causing me a problem. I have always been a picky eater.   Today I tried to eat normal food for lunch with digestive enzymes, for the first time. Normally now the problems I have when I eat is that I get a headache, I'm dizzy, I can't think, and I go into a sort of daze. It starts about a half an hour after I eat and lasts for two hours

I Am Trying So Hard Not To Get Giddy This Time

Here I go again. I think I am going through the same old series of happenings that I go through every time I begin a new phase of attempting to heal.   I begin: New supplements : New diet change or : New excercise plan   I begin with enthusiasm. I feel better. I get overwhelmed with the work, but I go on hoping that I can maintain the really better feeling. Finally, I realize the good feeling has been gone for a long time. I don't know what can be done. I lose hope. I disc

Possible Celiac Disease

I had my daughter about 4 months ago. Since than I have had almost IBS symptoms which is diarrhea, constipation, bloody stool, mucus, cramping, bloating, dizzy. I went to a GI dr and they did blood work and I positive for TTGABA and also had a abnormal endo iga screen. It wasn't positive enough to say I have celiac and I know the only way to clearly diagnose is a upper endoscopy. I really don't want to do that so I was wondering if anyone has been in the same situation and just decided to go glu

Thanksgiving Thoughts

As thanksgiving approaches my stress level increases. It is now not only my own diet that I have to worry about but also the diet of my 13 year old daughter. Thanksgiving being such a family oriented and traditional holiday, especially in the realm of food, makes it very difficult to maneuver. Being a guest at my brother's house, I dare not try to break the family tradition of stuffing the bird with my mother's oyster stuffing. It wouldn't be Thanksgiving for everyone else. So as a result I sepa

Gluten They Are Missing In Drugs!

Soooooo, how many of you realized that Sodium Starch Glycolate (a common filler in EVERYTHING) is considered gluten and toxic to those of us who have severe Celiac? I learned the hard way.....   After being bitten by what they think was a deer tick (had a round bullseye rash) I was put on what was supposed to be a gluten free drug. I was SICKER after taking the drug...dawned on me I had better research the filler ingredients. Turns out to those very sensitive, SODIUM STARCH GLYCOLATE is in the

I Will Give Up Gluten, I Could Do That, But I Do Not Want To Do A Rotational Diet.

One day I was feeling perky and having quite an animated discussion with my doctor. I had previously not wanted to consider cutting gluten from my diet.. Desperate as I was, it could not be that helpful. I always thought that my homemade breads were so good for me. Then, I drew a new line and I could avoid gluten if I could just feel better consistently.   I needed to feel like I didn't have to give everything up, so I said, that I wasn't ready to do a rotational diet. I thought I migh

You Are Not A Celiac

Celiac disease has a very unique trait that I have come to notice in the years I have been involved with it: people connect to it in a way that people with almost all other diseases do not... People with celiac disease will often say "I'm a celiac". ...but you do not hear anyone ever say "I'm a cancer" or "I'm a heart disease" or "I'm an MS". The exceptions seem to be food related: "I'm a celiac" and "I'm a diabetic". Why do we become the disease? Is it because it affects what

Testing 123. Food Intolerance And Nutrient Absorption

For 8 months I have been gluten free. For 6 months I have been grain free. Shortly after I began the diet I began to seek after tests to optimize my healing.   I struggled with what tests to do. Who should do the tests? Would my insurance cover the tests? I had a huge deductible with the insurance company with the Health Account now gone.     However, I am finally ready. This Friday night I will stop my life saving supplements for 4 days. Next Monday night I tuck a cup in the bathr
