- knitty kitty replied to trsprecker's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease1OTC pain reliever that are gluten-free and corn free??
Welcome to the forum, @trsprecker, I needed daily pain relief for three crushed vertebrae and found out that Thiamine, Pyridoxine, and Cobalamin (Vitamins B 1, B 6, and B12) have an analgesic effect. Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih... -

I am celiac with corn and tree nut allergies. I am finding it difficult to find OTC pain reliever that are safe for me. Any suggestions? I also do not tolerate any artificial sweeteners including stevia and agave. Thanks! -

There are other possible causes or damaged small bowel villi besides celiac disease. Google this: Not All That Flattens Villi Is Celiac Disease: A Review of Enteropathies There is also something known as seronegative celiac disease: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4586545/ -

Quaker corn grits are not certified gluten-free! These may, in fact, be contaminated by cross-contact in the manufacturing process. I have been following a strict gluten-free diet for about 3 years, with varying results depending on cross-contact issues. My celiac testing was inconclusive - and I wasn't willing to go back on gluten long enough for a full celiac diagnosis. I get pretty severe symptoms just a few hours after ANY gluten ingestion, no matter how small, so gastrointestinal doc recommends continuing to follow a gluten-free diet. So whether I have celiac disease (I do have one celiac gene) or non-celiac gluten sensitivity, treatment is the same. I have enjoyed corn grits on occasion, but started seeing a pattern of gluten intake symptoms after large family breakfasts. This last time, I researched everything I might have ingested. My family is pretty good about cross-contact, too. When I got to the Quaker corn grits, I found they are not certified gluten-free, and the labeling does not say gluten free anywhere - although the only ingredients are corn grits, salt and some vitamins and minerals. The research I did confirms that while Quaker grits do not "contain" gluten ingredients, they may indeed be contaminated by cross-contact with glutens. I threw out all the grits (and corn meal) I had in the pantry, and bought some certified as gluten-free. Hopefully, next family breakfast will be better! 😋

This is going to be a long post... Thank you for your time/expertise reviewing this. TTG (Anti-Tissue Transglutaminase) IgA Quantitative Normal range: below <4.0 U/mL Value <4.0 A negative result indicates that celiac disease is unlikely. If suspicion for celiac disease is strong then supplemental testing may be warranted. Concentration Interpretation: <4.0 U/mL: Negative 4.0-10.0 U/mL: Weak Positive >10.0 U/mL: Positive Endomysial IgA Titer Normal value: <1:10 Value <1:10 INTERPRETIVE INFORMATION: Endomysial Antibody, IgA Titer The endomysial antigen has been identified as the protein cross-linking enzyme known as tissue transglutaminase. Performed By: ARUP Laboratories 500 Chipeta Way Salt Lake City, UT 84108 Laboratory Director: Jonathan R. Genzen, MD, PhD CLIA Number: 46D0523979 Tissue Transglutaminase IgG Antibody Normal range: 0.00 - 4.99 FLU Value <0.82 INTERPRETIVE INFORMATION: Tissue Transglutaminase Ab, IgG In individuals with low or deficient IgA, testing for tissue transglutaminase (tTG) and deamidated Gliadin (DGP) antibodies of the IgG isotype is performed. Positive tTG and/or DGP IgG antibody results indicate celiac disease; however, small intestinal biopsy is required to establish a diagnosis due to the lower accuracy of these markers, especially in patients without IgA deficiency.
