Im thinkng specifically things like shampoo, lotions, make up, hair spray...etc. I can understand avoiding these things if you have DH but do you need to avoid them even w/o DH? I have never had any skin problems, and now Im wondering if I should be avoiding these outter things. I can understand lip stick b/c invariably you do ingest some of that, but what about other things?

I err on the side of caution and avoid gluten in cosmetic and hygiene products as well. I figure that since gluten-free varieties are fairly readily available, why take a chance? I don't have DH either, but one of my gluten-accident symptoms is itchy skin, so I am taking precautions to ensure that it never turns into DH!

      Hi Christina, i’m interested in this gaviscon Dimension but when I look it up on Amazon, I don’t see that it says it’s gluten-free?   Thank you Sorry, not dimension - it was supposed to say ‘that you mentioned’. Duh 🙄

      Hi Matt, like you I lost almost 3stone over 2yrs, my symptoms were exactly as you describe .    I was eventually referred  to a consultant who has been treating me for reflective coeliac.  I’ve been taking(  Budenofalk 3mg )steroids for the past 9 mths  and the course is coming to an end shortly. I’ve gained 2 stone and feel so much better in myself. Im due an endoscopy at the end of the course of steroids so unable to say if my villi’s have returned or my digestive system has repaired. But like you I was besides myself with worry.  Apparently the condition is quite unknown and the consultant at the hospital I attend has been in contact  with  Sheffield hospital who specialises in this condition. I hope this helps,    Deanne

      mental health struggles

      How are you doing, @sadiec123?  Did you get through the holidays alright?    Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Many newly diagnosed Celiacs  are low in Vitamin D and many of the B vitamins like thiamine.  Thiamin insufficiency can cause weight loss and loss of appetite (anorexia) as well as affect mood.   Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing and improve mood.
