You may have a problem with yeast. Yeast antibodies are commonly found in celiacs, at least until they have been gluten-free for quite a while. Do you seem to react to yeasted bread?

Another possibility is that you had a wine that was fined with casein. Tiny amounts of fining agents do remain in the final product and people have reported reacting to them. There is currently a proposal before the FDA to require vintners to list allergens just like food manufacturers have to. To see if this is your problem, try a vegan wine (google and you can find listings).

It may be easier to start with something distilled like vodka or tequila, and then only have one drink. I don't know if there is anyway of guaranteeing you won't react, though. Your system may not be ready for alcohol yet.

You are sure that it was the wine that did you in, right? No possibility it was a stomach bug, food poisoning, a reaction to something you ate at the same time, etc.?

Was it homemade wine by any chance? I only ask because one time (before I had Celiac) I had a very bad experience with homemade wine. I only had two glasses at a wedding and I threw up all night. I'm generally not a big drinker but I'm not that much of a lightweight. Never been so sick in my life, until Celiac that is. I know a few other people got ill from the wine as well. So if it was homemade wine you might want to consider that.

This is definitely not a slight to those who make their own wine. I'm sure most people do a perfectly fine job and experiences like mine are probably quite rare.

I have very strange reactions to alcohol, too. I can have one drink and throw up all night. Or sometimes I'll have two or three over the course of a few hours (so it's not a drunk thing :)), and then I'll throw up. Other times I'm fine. It doesn't seem to be related to being glutened or sick or a specific alcohol or anything. I wish I knew what to tell you. I've been doing the diet pepsi thing a lot recently :(

      Impossible to get diagnosis?

      By trents · Posted

      Do the skin care products that give you a rash list wheat as an ingredient or are you assuming from your reaction that they contain gluten? It is possible that not only do you have celiac disease, which is not an allergy but an autoimmune disorder, but that you also have a wheat allergy.

      Thank you, I’m very happy to be here!! Yes, lately I get rashes and itching when I accidentally use topical skin products with gluten in them. I got a bad rash around my hairline after unknowingly using glutenous hairspray, and a near-full-body rash with a sea salt spray that I guess I rinsed off insufficiently in the shower. Neither looked like typical dermatitis herpetiformis to me based on the posts I’ve read here—both were just large patches, red and slightly raised, with no blisters to speak of. At least yet. The sea salt spray was used yesterday and I noticed the itching this morning, with the rash forming obviously by this afternoon and evening.

      Thanks so much for your thorough reply! I was able to schedule with the local pediatric gastroenterologist who specializes in celiac but we have to wait 3 months to see her.

      Sorry, meant to type "or dermatitis herpetiformis for short". What? Every time I try it, the abbreviation for this skin condition is converted to the full length term. I'm trying to type "D" followed by "H".

      Welcome to the forum, allis! By "skin response to gluten products" are you saying you develop a rash when you use lotions, creams, shampoos, etc. that contain gluten? One of the classical symptoms of celiac disease is a skin rash known as dermatitis herpetiformis or "dermatitis herpetiformis" for short. Celiac disease is the only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. It has a distinct appearance. It has little blisters or pustules in the bumps. Does this sound like what you experience? Is so, it might be possible to get a punch biopsy done when you are having an outbreak. This would be an alternative to eating gluten. If your skin biopsy was positive for dermatitis herpetiformis you could be diagnosed with celiac disease on that basis alone. Apart from that, I know of no other way to get a diagnosis apart from returning to eating gluten for a period of weeks.
