I gave up coffee for some time before I could have it in small quantity. Some people have their guts very damaged so they become very sensitive. Coffee may irritate your gut, as spices or vinegar do. Try not to drink coffee for a while, or take it with lactose-free milk if you can (just one small cup). :)

i have had the same problem with coffee- the dizziness, etc could be from the caffeine. i was drinking regular coffee in the mornings because i was so exhausted all the time. now that the exhaustion has diminished eating gluten-free, i switched to decaf. i just like the taste of coffee and it has become part of my morning ritual. switching to decaf doesn't make me have to go to the bathroom like the regular does!

I wondered if the very sensitive people to small amounts of gluten could list a few products that they know are safe and thye have no problem with . Like I am wondering what brand of baking cocoa people use, or brands of cookies etc that you know are safe. I am to the point of being scared to try new things.

Hershey's cocoa power (baking cocoa) is safe for me at least. I make my own (drinking) cocoa using coconut milk. Cookies we bake ourselves mostly, but the few we buy are from Pamela's.

I have not been able to drink tea or coffee it just seems to really make my stomach hurts and burns. Is Pamelas a totaly gluten free facility? Also is Glutino totaly gluten free facility? I have been reading about Udis and it seems like it is all totaly gluten free . I did try a Udi's blueberry muffin and all was fine.

Pamela's and Glutino are both dedicated facilities.

Your gluten-free journey sounds so familiar. When people first try going gluten free, they're so accustomed to having processed foods in their diet, they look for gluten-free versions. It gives them comfort to eat like "they used to." Unfortunately, we continue to crave our old eating patterns, and it's difficult to change that without feeling deprived and bitter. I can honestly say that I was a bitter person for the first two years after being diagnosed with celiac, because I missed some of my favorite foods so very much (donuts, sourdough bread, cereals, croissants, pizza, ravioli, mac and cheese, etc.). However, over time, I lost my taste for these items. Now that there are gluten-free versions of everything I used to eat except croissants, I still rarely purchase them because I simply have very little interest in them anymore. Once you've spent some time eating a diet of unprocessed foods, believe me--you probably won't crave processed foods anymore. They just have a yucky, foreign consistency. So....don't bother to buy those cereals at all. Cook up some eggs or make a soup or salad. When your health is good, everything else seems good, too.

BTW, do you happen to live in Northern California? We have a few support groups around the S.F. Bay Area. Perhaps you can find a support group near you, too (??). Then you wouldn't have to rely on "Netland."

      I’m so confused…

      For my first couple of years after discovering my celiac disease I also had to avoid cow's milk/casein and eggs, as well as other things, but could tolerate duck eggs and sheep and goat's milk products. I'm not sure if you've tried those, but it could be worth testing them out.

      Hello, @Kwinkle, How are you doing? Have you tried adding a Magnesium supplement? The B Complex vitamins need magnesium to work properly, especially thiamine vitamin B 1.

      Testing

      Yes, if you had symptoms when eating gluten ruling out celiac disease won't necessarily mean you'll be able to eat gluten again, although it might mean that you may be able to be less strict with your gluten-free diet.

      Gluten-Free Ramen: A Comforting Bowl of Japanese Tradition

      Definitely, I have ramen regularly as Costco sells an excellent brown rice & buckwheat gluten-free ramen (just the noodles--they also sell a GF chicken soup stock in jars that works well to make ramen).

      Testing

      Have you considered the possibility that you might have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) rather than celiac disease? They share many of the same symptoms, the difference being that NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. There is no test yet available for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out...

      Hello, @Kwinkle, How are you doing?   Have you tried adding a Magnesium supplement?   The B Complex vitamins need magnesium to work properly, especially thiamine vitamin B 1.   Magnesium deficiency symptoms and Thiamine deficiency symptoms both include gas and bloating.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms also include loss of appetite and fatigue.   My gas and bloating resolved rather quickly when I took Benfotiamine (a form of thiamine shown to promote intestinal healing) and Magnesium Glycinate in addition to my B 50 Complex (all twice a day plus the following...).   I found Magnesium L-Threonate or Magnesium Taurate are better when taken with a form of thiamine called TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl dusulfide) because all of these cross the blood brain barrier easily, which corrects the loss of appetite, fatigue and anxiety.    Like @Celiacandme said, keeping a food/mood/poo'd journal is a big help in finding problematic foods, and for making sure your diet is not carbohydrate heavy.  If you're eating a lot if processed gluten free facsimile foods, be aware they do not have vitamins and minerals added to them like their gluten containing counterparts.  For every 1000 kcal of carbohydrates, we need an extra 500 mg of thiamine to turn them into energy and not store them as fat.   Let us know how you're doing!

Celiac disease must first be ruled out. In view of your genetic profile, I would give it consideration.
