Hi, My name is Luda.

I discovered I was a Celiac Around this time last year, I was 23. I'd been suffering alone until I stumbled on this site!

I was near having a panic attack this morning because the bar BQ sauce i was dipping my chicken in had soy sauce (soy sauce! with wheat!) and I didn't chance on the ingredient list until i was about to throw out the container. Who puts soy sauce in Bar BQ sauce? (watch that be a standard ingredient and I just had no idea)

I've been struggling with hidden gluten for the past entire year. In spite of all the direct food I've avoided I may as well have just done nothing!

I'm so frustrated :(

Anyway, it's wonderful to be able to speak with people who can relate. It's nice to meet you!

Yea. This is a great place. It's kinda like finding your home planet isn't it? :D

Having this message board to search through makes it easy to find out if a product has been verified gluten free. I was lucky enough to find this board before I had my testing done. I don't know how people do this on their own.

I'm glad you found us. Welcome to the board.

Yes, wheat is hidden in so many things. BBQ sauce is one of the many things it is hidden in, soy sauce is a bad one too. There are BBQ sauces without wheat though and I am sure someone will come along and tell you which too try. I can't have tomatoes or I would suggest some for you.

Welcome to the board.

Luda, did you ever try LaChoy? It has no wheat. I also know that there is a wheat free brand sold online in the Gluten Free mall and Miss Robens.

      Testing for celiac

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Bebee, Yes, Celiac Disease has genetic commonalities with MS, hypothyroidism, arthritis, Reynaud, and rosacea.   Usually a gluten challenge is done before endoscopy with biopsies taken,  however I would not recommend a gluten challenge before endoscopy with biopsies for you since you have been gluten free for so long and have so many concurrent autoimmune diseases.   You can still have the endoscopy with biopsy samples taken now.  After several months with dietary changes, you can have another to compare results and check that intestinal health has improved.   You can get a genetic test for Celiac disease which shares genetics with other autoimmune diseases that you have.  Eating gluten is unnecessary for genetic tests. For the rosacea, get checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) that could be causing gastrointestinal symptoms as well as causing skin issues.  Our skin is a reflection of our gastrointestinal health.     Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet has been helpful in keeping my own rosecea, eczema, and dermatitis herpetiformis and other autoimmune diseases in check.   Be sure to be checked for nutritional deficiencies that occur easily in gluten free and dairy free diets. Keep us posted on your progress! References: Clustering of autoimmune diseases in patients with rosacea https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26830864/ And...

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb

      Newly gluten free… withdrawal?

      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.
