Nope. It was the Blue BUNNY All Natural Vanilla I've been eating for years. Actually I have been checking recalls.gov to see if anything else I've been eating has been recalled due to undeclared wheat.

 

I'm really hoping I haven't developed a new intolerance. I thought things were quieting down and then last night it started getting worse again. :angry: Looks like I'm going to have to quit dairy for a while. That means I'll be eating grilled bread sandwiches instead of grilled cheese.

 

You never realize how important cheese and butter are until you lose them. :(

Maybe it won't be for too long. And maybe you can do hard cheeses?

Aww...A grilled bread sandwich is no fun! I'm wondering of I'm having a dairy issue too. I reintroduced it a few months ago. First a splash of creamer in my coffee...then a little vanilla ice cream. Finally a little cheese. I seem to do OK with a little, but yesterday I had all 3 at some point and today had to drag the kids home from the park ASAP so I could have D...sorry about the TMI. That's the 2nd time that's happened recently after a day of having all 3. I've had days with just creamer and been ok. Or just creamer and ice cream and been ok. So I don't know if it's the cheese or if adding in one more thing just is beyond what my crazy body can handle.

Sorry to go on and on...

icelandgirl.........after 10 years gluten-free, I present with dairy the same way.  I am good with a little but once I go over a certain amount, which usually means multiple servings in a day, I feel like crap.  I have healed well so do not suffer from diarrhea but too much dairy acts like a laxative on me and I go to the bathroom a LOT for a day or so.  I also get cramping so I have to be very careful about amounts in a 24 hour period.  But I cannot eat ice cream at all.  I don't mind, at this point, and do not miss it.  I still have cookies so all is well!  :)

I can't do much dairy either, but I'm sorry you are losing dairy again for a while.  Hopefully it will be okay again soon - ice cream season is upon us.

 

Someone I know actually found me a gluten-free ice cream with gluten-free cookies in it. Mmmm. I almost cried.  LOL  And then I promptly forgot the brand - maybe I will cry now.  ;)

      NEW - 7 year old daughter diagnosed but 'not officially' - negligence from NHS

      By trents · Posted

      Essentially all of our UK forum participants who are in the process of a celiac disease diagnosis report that after their blood antibody testing is done, they have to wait many months to get the endoscopy/biopsy for confirmation. My impression is that the UK/European health care models do great at addressing routine healthcare needs but poorly at specialty healthcare needs.

      I think both systems have merits and faults, but in my opinion no citizen of any country should be denied health care, and it should be a basic human right, no matter your income.

      I want to stand up for the NHS! Yes, it has its issues, but after moving from the U.S. a few years ago, it’s been a real eye-opener to see just how much better the NHS is compared to the American healthcare system. For example, I can call my GP in the morning and often get an appointment that same day. Healthcare is provided to all UK residents, free at the point of use, no matter your income or job status. That’s a massive relief. In the U.S., people regularly go bankrupt because of medical bills—it’s one of the leading causes of financial ruin. Here, that just doesn’t happen. Plus, the UK consistently reports lower infant mortality rates and higher life expectancy compared to the U.S. No system is perfect, but the NHS deserves recognition for what it does right—and that’s a lot.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By Russ H · Posted

      I developed a heart arrhythmia and on several occasions had to wear a 24 hour Holter monitor. Among other things, I had premature atrial complexes (PACs) and occasional AFib. I was very fit at the time, running and cycling. This completely disappeared following my diagnosis and following a strict gluten free diet. I haven't had a single episode since, in 4 years.

      Newly diagnosed with non celiac gluten sensitivity

      By trents · Posted

      Testing for celiac disease, whether blood antibody testing or biopsy procedure, will likely be invalidated when the gluten consumption has been discontinued ahead of the testing or the procedure for more than a couple of weeks or so. For the person with celiac disease, the consumption of gluten results in the production of specific antibodies that can be detected in the blood because the immune system is attacking the gluten as it comes in contact with the small bowel lining. The blood testing is designed to detect these antibodies. Over time, the inflammation wears down the villi that line the small bowel. The biopsy is designed to spot this damage to the lining. When gluten consumption is discontinued, these processes cease. Antibodies begin to disappear from the blood and the villi begins to rebuild. Many people begin to experiment with the gluten free diet before they seek testing and their doctors often neglect to check for this before ordering blood tests and biopsies.  If you want to be sure that you don't have celiac disease, you would need to endure a "gluten challenge" for a period of weeks. This would consist of resuming gluten consumption in the amount of at least 10g daily (the equivalent of about 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks and then get retested or re-biopsied. But regardless of whether you have celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) the antidote is the same: total abstinence from gluten for life.
