With a reaction like that please use caution with other nightshades, tomatoes, eggplant, and I think peppers also. I hope your over it soon.

I just noticed you are newly soy free, the potato was just a potato right? No soy oil or anything like that? Soy still gets me too often, it seems to be in even more stuff than gluten, if that is even possible. I have yet to find a margerine or butter sub that is soy free. I just use olive oil or risk the casien in butter. I get the same sort of allergic reaction you do with the soy, only it's my intestines that swell, I thought I had a 'lump' of some kind for 2 years till I went soy free. Whoops that turned into a bit of a rant, sorry. You most likely challenged with a plain potato but just in case it was chips or something like that I thought I should mention it.

Hello SickChick,

Sorry to hear you are "sick". I can relate though. I have been sick for, well off and on, mostly on, since May, but the last 2 months or of 2007 were not good for me. I can so relate to the list of foods I can eat, and the list of foods I can't eat. I have a big list I keep modifying as well. Some I have to take off the "can eat" list and put on the "can't eat" list. Gets very frustrating at times.

I just want to say though, that I have experienced that when I am having a bad bout, usually cause I ate glutens (cause I didn't have a diagnosis so I would eat glutens off and on mistakenly), I find that my body rejects everything until whatever is wrong inside heals. Once it heals, and I stay gluten free for a while, like a few weeks or so, then I can start tolerating more (non-gluten foods). It's like you body has to heal first.

Anyways, good luck with that. It is nice to find people who are having the same problems as me :rolleyes:

Hello ravenwoodglass,

I am new here. I don't really want to introduce myself on someone else's thread. I see you have spent a long time getting the Celiac diagnosis. This now gives me hope that maybe I will get a Celiac Diagnosis! LOL. My tests are always negative. Finally, one day I called up the Celiac association, and they said that I have to eat glutens anywhere from 6 weeks to 2 months to get a positive result (I think they mean from the biopsy). Unfortunatelly I can't do that. In the past I have only eaten glutens for a week before the biopsy. Nothing registers.

Anyways, sounds like you have had a long battle. I am back to see the GI on Monday and to get a gastropscopy on Monday. I don't think I will see any positive results for Celiac disease on the biopsy as I am eating gluten free. Too sick otherwise. Just recovering from a very bad bout. I'm finally "eating" again. I am so happy! Anyways, hopefully my GI will consider some rigorous blood testing to try and get a diagnosis. I hope so.

Bye, Genie

I understand sniiiffffffffffff . . . You have my sincere sympathies.

I had to do the same awhile back. This week I realized peppers have the same effect on me. I LOVE fresh red and yellow peppers. I suspect eggplant has the same effect on me too but I haven't tested it out yet.

It totally sucks. Never to taste a french fry again . . .

      Welcome to the forum, @RDB7918393! For some folks, gluten reactions are delayed but I would not think symptoms delayed  of a week or more out would be due to a gluten reaction. Twenty four hours or so but not 7-14 days. I would suspect something else is going on. Eating out is well-known to be the number one sabotaging activity of the gluten-free life style.

      I was diagnosed with Celiac about 10 months ago after having on and off morning stomach cramping and loose stool that only occurred like once a month. So I don’t get immediate reactions…more if build up reactions. I do my best to be gluten free but hard when on vacation and going to restaurants to fully trust cross contamination problems. I find that if I’m cross contaminated, I don’t get a reaction til about a week or two after. The reaction is stomach cramping morning only with flaky stool. Does anyone else have such a delayed reaction like a week or two after being glutened? Or should I go for more testing to see what’s going on.

      Good morning, I saw that a lot of people were asking wether Polly-O products are gluten free. I just called them and all their cheeses are gluten free! Just wanted to let anyone know.    if you still want you can give them a call.

      Your approach is spot-on—trusting reliable sources like Mayo Clinic and sticking to a gluten-free diet that works for you is the best way to navigate all the noise out there. The claim that rice and corn contain forms of gluten harmful to celiacs is indeed a misconception. While these grains do contain proteins that may technically be referred to as "glutens" in a broader scientific sense, they are structurally and functionally different from the gliadin found in wheat, which is the specific protein harmful to those with celiac disease. Scientific research overwhelmingly supports the safety of non-contaminated rice and corn for celiacs unless there’s a separate sensitivity or allergy involved. Some opinion pieces or alternative health sources may blur the lines by conflating these proteins, which can cause unnecessary worry. You're absolutely correct to focus on the distinction between scientifically validated information and anecdotal claims. It's also important to note that some people with celiac disease may develop sensitivities to other grains over time, but this is individual and not a universal rule. If you’re asymptomatic and thriving on a diet that includes certified gluten-free products with rice and corn, there’s no reason to change what’s clearly working for you. The internet is a breeding ground for well-meaning but misguided advice, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Your instinct to validate claims through reliable research is exactly the right way to go. Keep enjoying your gluten-free meals, stick with trusted certifications, and don’t feel pressured to adopt restrictive diets that aren’t backed by science or tailored to your specific needs. Happy New Year to you too!
