1 Month Today Gluten Free!

today marks 1 month for me! yesterday I had my asthma check up and to my astonishment my heart rate was only 75 (it has never been below 100) and my lungs were almost clear! I go back in 6 months again and my allergist will reduce my Advair dosage and eventually take me off of it! That makes  me so happy because this asthma has been very hard to manage due to the gluten triggering it. I've suffered 2 years with this and all along it was because of gluten :o

 

I'm not saying I'm healed only after 1 month but I am starting to see little improvements. My fingernails and lips are normal color, (they have always had a greyish/blue hue to them) and my breathing is incredible. I can actually sing again! My lungs were so hyperinflated that they flattened my diaphram and I couldn't sing without getting out of breath. I'm not a singer but love to sing none the less :D

 

now I have been on prednisone and tons of breathing treatments but they would only temporarily fix the problem. I'v gone a month straight without even having to yawn (that is how I would try to catch my breath) so I'm pretty excited

      Less than 10 parts per billion issues

      By trents · Posted

      I have no specific recommendations but I would suggest looking for products that are advertised as produced in a dedicated gluten-free facility. That should eliminate one possible route of cross contamination. It doesn't guarantee that none of the ingredients going into the product are totally gluten free but is should eliminate adding more CC to the mix via processing machinery.  One of the issues you may be experiencing is that testing has shown that a significant percentage of "Certified Gluten Free" products can test far in excess of 10ppm. There was an article appearing in this forum back last summer outlining the results of testing that showed this to be true. So, it may be somewhat of a pig in a poke when you buy this stuff, regardless of how it is billed. It may be safe for you if it actually fits within the stated requirements of it's billing.

      I can still have a reaction from “certified gluten free” products I don’t like having to use the eat and see what my body does approach are there really any purely gluten free products or do I just have to make all of my own food?

      Hi I just wanted to update you all and let you know that I finally have my diagnosis. 2 weeks ago I had my third gastroscopy and the biopsy confirmed the damage. Thank you for giving me the information I needed to advocate for myself when I a was a feeling so lost!
