Is this possible.

I had my GB taken out about 6 yrs ago when i was 21.

I had this weird feeling before my DX too last year, but after i went gluten-free it seemed to go away so i thought it was related to my diet, i guess not.

For the past month ive had this weird feeling on my right side, kind of a dull pressure almost feels like something is 'leaking' or 'oozing' inside me?!!? sometimes my back gets sore too and nausea. At first i thought it was because i was C, but even that went away, and i still have that feeling...

My doc sent me to get a CT scan last week to rule out appendisitis....and its not that. Im soooo confused!!! im going to see my GI friday, but im so upset and sad, i feel misrable half the time, and half the time i feel ok..... :(

Have they checked your liver? I have problems occasionally that seem to be my liver, but they never can quite figure it out. Most people have liver stones and just never know it until they cause problems. I had my GB out too about 7 years ago, and this liver related issue seems to have started right about the time I went gluten-free 3 years ago. Maybe I had it all along, but never noticed because of the issues I was having with gluten. Now my liver seems to act up when I get glutened. I ended up in the ER one night because of the pain and the only thing that showed up anywhere on all the test they did was elevated liver enzymes. Then 2 days later my GP said he thought my liver was possibly enlarged. A week or so later they did a liver ultrasound and the tech swore to me that they would see something if it had been a liver stone that got stuck. They didn't see anything, but after more than a week I question whether they would see anything...

Anyhow, a lot of celiacs have liver and gallbladder issues.

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Doris Barnes · Posted

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By trents · Posted

      @Manaan2, have you considered the possibility that she might be cross reacting to some food or foods that technically don't contain gluten but whose proteins closely resemble gluten. Chief candidates might be dairy (casein), oats (avenin), soy, corn and eggs. One small study showed that 50% of celiacs react to CMP (Cow's Milk Protein) like they do gluten.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      I realize I'm super late in the game regarding this topic but in case anyone is still reading/commenting on this one-does anyone who is especially sensitive have their personal observations to share regarding Primal Kitchen brand?  My daughter was diagnosed almost 2 years ago with celiac and within 6 months, her follow up labs were normal and a year later vitamin levels significantly improving, but we are still battling GI symptoms; particularly, constipation, so much that she has been on MiraLax every day since she was 3.  We've managed to get her down to a half cap every other day but without that, she continues to have issues (when she has a known, accidental ingestion unfortunately it takes a lot more MiraLax and additional laxatives to help her).  I was searching for something else and found this and am wondering if anyone has any specific comments regarding Primal Kitchen.  I feel like we are so incredibly careful with diet, logging diet and symptoms to look for patterns (we've had multiple dieticians help with this piece as well), not eating out, contacting companies and of course, there is always room for improvement but I'm running out of ideas regarding where her issues could be coming from.  Even if the Primal Kitchen is contributing, I'm sure it's not the only thing contributing but I can't help but think there must be handful of things that are working together and against her.  The ingredients list distilled white vinegar, but also white wine vinegar and balsamic, then "spices" which I'm always cautious about.  However, after contacting the company, I felt more comfortable allowing her to consume their products but over time I've realized that the front-line customer service support people don't always provide the most accurate of information.  Thanks for reading to anyone that does.
