Ok I went to a Chinese Restaurant today. I was scared so I called 1st. I asked what I could have that doesn't have Gluten. The cook really didn't know what Gluten was. So I explained it to her. I ended out getting the Harr Kow, The Chinese veggies with rice and Gravy. When She brought it in she asked if Corn starch was ok :) I said absolutely!! So I I ate it. It was wonderful!! I just started thinking tho, I hope the Chicken stock was home made, and not bought. Because some has Gluten in it. But so far no problems :) It has been 4 1/2 hrs!! Yay!!

i've tried chinese restaurants too, when i ask about gluten they never seem to know what it is, so i usually get whatever curry dish they have available, to be safe.

I did fine!! It helps we used to go there all the time when the kids were young, so they know us. I have never had a problem there in the past. Even when I was having my blood test and was kinda "gluten free" I went there and had no problem, but I don't want to ruin a good thing because I have been doing so well :)

      Does anyone else have seborrheic dermatitis

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @CarolTN I haven't been diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis but as @Scott Adams says, like a lot of coeliacs I do suffer from itchy skin, and now adult onset eczema. The latter started during one of the lockdowns.  I find my skin is often itchy if the temperature changes from hot to cold or cold to hot, that seems to set it off. This time of year is bad,  I also get an itchy throat, so maybe pollen is having some effect. I am not sure where you live but here I'm mentioning the products I buy in the UK that help me - they may be available where you live? For my scalp, I have used with some success Neutrogena T-Gel, but I think Philp Kingsley's products for flakey, itchy scalps are amazing. I've used the shampoo and the toner. For the rest of my skin, I use something called Adex Gel after I have showered, and then any really itchy patches I treat with Betnovate, a steroid cream, 20 minutes later, as suggested by a doctor. I currently have some very stubborn patches around my waist, no idea what they are - Canesten anti-fungal cream makes them worse, so does Betnovate.  But when I rub the patches, they disappear, i.e. blanch, which apparently classic for dermatitis.  It's a constant challenge! When I first got eczema I had given up chocolate and was eating cakes which contained almonds.  My blood tests showed the markers for eczema were elevated at that time - the  IgE.  I felt there might be a connection. So you  may find something in your diet isn't helping the situation, other than gluten? Cristiana

      Yes it is.  So I try to buy block only, but still watch for it.

      I believe it is also commonly used in pre-grated parmesan cheeses, like Kraft's.

      Question

      By VinnieVan · Posted

      Thank you so much! This is helpful, just to know. Over the years, I’ve seen the scope and understanding of the disease broaden. In some ways, I think it’s remarkable a doctor in Oregon way back then could diagnose a baby he’d never met so quickly. I wish I’d asked more questions!!
