      Your experience sounds incredibly challenging and frustrating. It’s impressive that you’ve been so methodical in tracking your triggers and finding safe foods. While it may feel bizarre, sensitivities like these can sometimes point to underlying conditions like chemical sensitivities, histamine intolerance, or even specific food additives. Have you considered consulting with a functional medicine practitioner or allergist who might specialize in these types of issues? You’ve done a lot of the hard work already with your food diary, and that could provide valuable insights for a professional to help you further.

      Welcome to the forum! The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      I just found out that I have Celiac disease. I need help with determining what foods to eat.

      Sounds like you're very careful with food.  Any possible airborne or non-eating exposures? One time I got really sick from feeding my neighbor's chickens, the feed would get kicked up and I'd inhale the dust, read the ingredients, yup gluten. Another time we were doing some home remodeling, removed some old plaster, probably gluten in that. Anything like that?  Anybody lip kissing gluten eaters?  Any contact with pets that are eating gluten?  Body products like shampoo and lotions?

      Oh gosh. I remember being shocked when my new doc said he thought I had Celiacs (went in bcuz kidneys were failing, no intestinal issues), but relieved at first to find an explanation for my issues.  Then as I hit the library and the internet and read up on Celiacs, I got sooooo depressed and overwhelmed.  Funny you say "is it an italian thing?" ... I'm not Italian, but half Portuguese, so we're both full of fire. I had to keep repeating in my head something my Mom used to say (she had been raped as a teen, got pregnant from it, forced to marry the bastid, he beat them, she finally got away, married my dad years later and had a wonderful life full of love and lots of laughing), she would say "it's not what happens to you in life, it's what you do with what happens to you in life, how you go forward" So I finally accepted that this is what i have, everyone has something, and i will do what i have to do to get healthy and will probably end up living longer and better in the long run.  Start with your home, clean the kitchen from top to bottom. Read the info here on what to keep and what to toss, food and cookware, body products, just go through everything one at a time. You will get better at reading labels, it will be second nature.  Eat more whole foods, meat and veggies.  I remember running every dish in my house through the dishwater on the super cycle. It was probably overkill, but I felt better. You will make mistakes and have set backs, but you will prevail and the fire in your soul will get you through.  The people here are so supportive, never give up.
