That does suck that you have to have a 2nd one. It will be one year in june since ive had my biopsy luckily I don't have to have another one. I thought you were already diagnosed celiac, are they just trying to see if there was any thing healed? Hope you figure it all out :)

Don't worry. Just calm down, and stop thinking about it.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm getting a blood test tomorrow. :P

Don't worry about it. I had a 2nd endo, and I was afraid of the same thing. If there is damage from contamination, then at least you know about it and can monitor progess via bloodwork every few months (which isn't bad at all--I've done that dozens of times in the past 2 yrs.).

      Gluten in Escitalopram??

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Farmerswife! You are correct. Cornstarch should not contain gluten unless there is an issue with "cross contamination" with wheat/barley/rye in the processing. Even then, I can't imagine there being enough gluten in those pills/caplets/capsules to cause a reaction. Is this med in pill form, caplet form or capsule form? If capsule, it is possible that the capsule itself is made from wheat.  Another possibility is that your are "cross reacting" to the cornstarch. Maize is a fairly common cross reactor in the celiac community. But even so, there would likely be little maize (the protein component of corn) in the starch. Still another possibility, and the most likely one I'm thinking, is that you are experiencing a side effect of the med itself. It is an SSRI. Have you tried other SSRIs. SSRI's listed side effects include nausea and diarrhea. However, Escitalopram has the reputation of having less of a tendency than other SSRIs to produce these side effects. But you never know. Every individual is different. Have you tried other SSRIs?

      Gluten in Escitalopram??

      By Farmerswife · Posted

      Recently diagnosed with Celiac and trying to figure out all the things. One concern I have is I have taken Escitalopram for years. Insurance does not pay for name brand so that is not an option. Cannot get it compounded at any local pharmacy. The generic brand that I have says it is not gluten free due to it having cornstarch in it. From what I understand cornstarch is gluten free. I do feel "glutened" most of the time when I take this. Anyone else have this issue and did you find a solution? Everything I google says Escitalopram is gluten free, but I don't think this one is.
