My husband is not good at reading labels so I have set up a certain area in the freezer, fridge and cabinet for food me and my daughter. Well I came home from work and my husband mentioned she had a ice cream sandwich! What??? He gave her a toffuti cutie that I must have missed in the freezer!! She got a horrible messy bm and her runny nose came back!! SO it was a good thing to show him that this is a necessary diet for her and it really showed me that she does have reactions to gluten! So even though I felt bad for her it was a kinda good thing.

Yes, it was a good thing in one way, hopefully it teaches your husband the importance of learning to read labels!

Poor little girl, daddy needs to be educated. :blink:

      2 months in... struggling with symptoms

      By aperlo34 · Posted

      Hi everyone, 29 years old, got my diagnosis in September. This has been the longest 2 months of my life. This was my first real dx and I wasn't having much for symptoms before (1x bad constipation, irregular BM schedule). I struggle with pretty bad health anxiety and I've been freaking out pretty consistently for 4+months (when I was told I needed a colonoscopy).  Basically since the colonoscopy was ordered in July, I started having small muscle twitching all over - this comes and goes but it's about 1 or 2 twitches every minute or so. I've also been super active this summer, riding 4k miles on my bike and accidentally losing 20lbs which I didn't really need to do. Since gluten free I've been all over the place diet/fitness/sleep wise and have had all sorts of weird symptoms: muscle twitching since July sinus(?) headaches since September extremely tired since October Dry eyes for the last 2 weeks worsening headaches in the morning especially and in the back of head/sinus area stiffness in body/neck/hands/joints general shakiness/weakness Vitamins levels from last week: Magnesium 2.3 (ref 1.6-2.3) B12 406 (ref 232-1245) Vit D 43.6 (ref 40-100) Folate 11.4 Glucose 84 (ref 70-99) Ferritin 117 (ref 30-400) Iron Sat 48 (ref 15-55) It's hard for me to know what is and isn't celiac related, and every rabbit hole I go down online leads me to horrible places. I'm just hoping there is some sort of light at the tunnel and that one day I'm going to feel better. I felt great until this diagnosis (as far as I could tell). Does anyone have any experience being relatively asymptomatic and then feeling like complete trash after gluten-free?    Thank you so much.

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      I was checking aip diet and discovered that aspirin is prohibited. I definitely can understand why that is but my cardio dr says to stay on it. So aip is done before I even get started.

      How to choose a Naturopath for 6yr old

      By cristiana · Posted

      You are more than welcome.  I think there are quite a lot of different types out there, my own nutritionist was a v. highly qualified scientist as well, but at least you can see what qualifications they are which seem to be quite well stated.  I wish you all well on your son's coeliac journey.

      Raw Meat Craving

      By Jordan Carlson · Posted

      Thanks for the info @knitty kitty! I really appreciate when people recommend things for me to try, it helps a lot! I will run this stuff by my doctor at my next appointment next week. It is also good to know I am not alone with the continued reactions though. It has been pretty difficult for me and has taken a bit of a toll on my mental health. Trying so hard and dedicating so much time to resolve this issue just to feel like I am running around in circles. But i'm glad to get some insight from people who have experienced the same thing. My family and friends just keep saying i'm crazy andthat i'm a hypochondriac. But the only thing that has gotten me this far in my journey and this close to figuring it out is not listening to them and believing in myself.

      Water filters and gluten

      By Shayla93 · Posted

      I have found this to be an issue too! At my work, we have 3 people with celiac. We all thought we were going crazy drinking the water from our filtered water fountain. Turns out when we all stopped drinking it, our symptoms went away.  I found that life straw water filters cause this, as well as brita and zero water. From what I found it’s the glue that holds the filter together that causes this. I could be wrong though.  I really want to find a filter that works, but it seems to be impossible to find out without trying it. When you let the companies know that there is a problem, they usually don’t believe you too, so sometimes you can’t get your money back. Very frustrating!
