Two Different Items....two Possible Glutens

So i was pretty sick for awhile and couldn't figure out why....turns out Apple Cider was the problem....I read the ingredients and everything seemed totally fine, but it just made me ridiculously sick....I wouldn't have figured out what the problem was if it weren't for my mom making me a completely gluten free meal and me having apple cider with the meal. Anyone else know of anything like this?

Secondly..........everytime I have Hunts tomato paste/sauce I get that uh oh feeling in my stomach and spend quite some time in the bathroom....everything seems harmless in the label, but this has happened like four or five times....any one know anything??

And what about splenda, can we have splenda....

haha sorry for all the questions, i've had them building up for quite some time.

I don't know about the cider. I do know that many people are a little sensitive to tomato products...I'm one of them, as well as my brother. It could be the acid within the product. Also, though I (luckily) tolerate Splenda well, I've read many accounts of people not handling it well, as in using the bathroom a lot, feeling nauseous, etc. A lot of people just can't do sugar subs...hth!

Fake sugars make some gassy (even diaherra if too much is eaten). But, splenda is gluten free. Not sure about the apple cider....are "spices" listed as an ingrediant? I've been glutened before by "spices", thinking that they would certainly list anything harmful....does not seem to be the case though.

cider makes me have to run to the bathroom! not sure why...acidity? i've just always been that way....

I have noticed with kids (do not have celiac disease) that apple juice is great for constipation. I am not sure what it is about the juice.

Also, what type of cider are you drinking? Has it been pasturized? Unpasturized can have bacteria in it and create diarrhea too...

For years and years I've noticed that COOKED tomatoes seem to upset me terribly...for example, spaghetti made with tomato sauce always gave me a bad time and horrible heartburn. Yet, fresh tomato slices didn't seem to bother me.

Yea--Sometimes tomato sauce gives me indigestion but fresh tomato never does. Probably because the tomatoes are more concentrated, then the added spices on top of that.

      Do the skin care products that give you a rash list wheat as an ingredient or are you assuming from your reaction that they contain gluten? It is possible that not only do you have celiac disease, which is not an allergy but an autoimmune disorder, but that you also have a wheat allergy.

      Thank you, I’m very happy to be here!! Yes, lately I get rashes and itching when I accidentally use topical skin products with gluten in them. I got a bad rash around my hairline after unknowingly using glutenous hairspray, and a near-full-body rash with a sea salt spray that I guess I rinsed off insufficiently in the shower. Neither looked like typical dermatitis herpetiformis to me based on the posts I’ve read here—both were just large patches, red and slightly raised, with no blisters to speak of. At least yet. The sea salt spray was used yesterday and I noticed the itching this morning, with the rash forming obviously by this afternoon and evening.

      Thanks so much for your thorough reply! I was able to schedule with the local pediatric gastroenterologist who specializes in celiac but we have to wait 3 months to see her.

      Sorry, meant to type "or dermatitis herpetiformis for short". What? Every time I try it, the abbreviation for this skin condition is converted to the full length term. I'm trying to type "D" followed by "H".

      Welcome to the forum, allis! By "skin response to gluten products" are you saying you develop a rash when you use lotions, creams, shampoos, etc. that contain gluten? One of the classical symptoms of celiac disease is a skin rash known as dermatitis herpetiformis or "dermatitis herpetiformis" for short. Celiac disease is the only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. It has a distinct appearance. It has little blisters or pustules in the bumps. Does this sound like what you experience? Is so, it might be possible to get a punch biopsy done when you are having an outbreak. This would be an alternative to eating gluten. If your skin biopsy was positive for dermatitis herpetiformis you could be diagnosed with celiac disease on that basis alone. Apart from that, I know of no other way to get a diagnosis apart from returning to eating gluten for a period of weeks.
