I have alerted surgeons that they need to check with manufacturers and labs to vet the anesthesia. My hands surgeon did that and I was ok so reconstruction surgeon called her to use same anesthesia. They certainly wouldn't have taken just my word.

A pleasure.   It could just be the oats (even pure ones can cause problems for some coeliacs, as I mentioned) but don't be discouraged if that is the issue, as for most of us that passes.  Very odd, really, as before going on a gluten free diet, they had no effect on  me at all!    

My POINT trents, was actually related to food more than inhalers causing your issue. My POINT is that even though gluten free food is supposed to not cause a reaction it does and can in some people so think about what you're eating...premade foods labeled gluten free like breads, pastry, cookies....whatever you're consuming....may be causing the reaction. I can't eat any gluten free breads from stores & certain pasta is a no too...others are OK. You may want to eliminate certain foods and see if your problem clears up.  2. Check with the inhaler manufacturer to ensure it's gluten free. Other than those two points if it continues a throat scope by an ENT may be needed to rule out other things. 

Thanks Christina.  The Granola products I tried were marked Gluten Free so supposed to be suitable.  I've had many tests done but no results yet but I get the results in next day or so.   I may well have these issues due to deficiencies. Just wanted to get some anecdotal feedback about the issue before I see the GE specialist   If and wwhenI get an answer, I'll post it her. Cheers!! Carmel
