Just saw this part of the forum so thought I'd drop in and wave my hand at any other Aussies who might be on here. I'm in Perth and I'm gluten intolerant. I've written a longer post about my situation in the gluten intolerance and behaviour thread.

Hey there, I'm from Melbourne. I think there are a few Aussies floating around here.

Hi, I'm from Perth too. My Dr told me today that I'm Gluten Intolerant, but the jury is still out on celiac disease. Off to try and find your thread....

I've been coeliac for a while now. 11 years almost. I tend to live in Melbourne, but am also studying in Canberra. My pastime has been taking a variety of companies to task over false and illegal gluten free advertising in Australia...

Hi we are in Queensland and have a breadmaker which we are having a variable amount of success with. Just wonder what other Aussie are using as a base mixture and their success or otherwise?

I buy Easy Baker mix them bake it in a loaf pan in the oven. I suck at the bread maker lol.

I've been doing this recipe almost every second day - if you like irish soda bread you will love this!

I put in heaped spoons of the baking powder so it rises a bit better.

Hi there, I'm from the NT :) I just posted my introductory thread in the pre diagnosis section. I'm hoping I'm about to start on the road to recovery!

Hi, I live in Amata, a small remote community in the north west of South Australia. Im also gluten intolerant.

In the bread maker I find The real bread mix to be good, but for a truly decadent experience I suggest you try Simply Wize Crusty Bread mix. You shape it into a cob and bake in the oven. Tastes like REAL bread (my husband who is not gluten intolerant loves it (and hes fussy).

      Does it taste like black licorice?  It said it was chewable.  I do not like that flavor.     Since the burn at the back of my throat is there everyday, I usually only take something when it is unbearable and keeping me from ADL especially sleep.

      Your concerns about Nando's cross-contamination practices are valid and important for the celiac community. It's disappointing that Nando's does not have stricter protocols for children's portions, especially given the risk of cross-contact with gluten-containing items like garlic bread. Cooking gluten-free items on shared surfaces, even if cleaned, is not safe for individuals with celiac disease, as even trace amounts of gluten can cause harm. While the adult butterfly chicken may be a safer option, the inconsistency in practices for children's meals is concerning. It's frustrating that Nando's headquarters did not take responsibility, but sharing your experience raises awareness and may encourage them to improve their protocols. Consider reaching out to celiac advocacy organizations to amplify your concerns and push for better standards. Always double-check with staff and emphasize the importance of avoiding cross-contamination when dining out.

      I had this symptom when I was diagnosed. Are you sure that your diet is 100% gluten-free?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Based on your results, it seems unlikely that you have celiac disease. A negative endoscopy and the absence of HLA-DQ2/DQ8 genes (the primary genetic markers for celiac) strongly suggest you do not have the condition. However, the elevated TTG-IgA (22) could indicate a temporary immune response or another issue, such as a different autoimmune disorder, intestinal infection, or even a lab anomaly. The presence of DQA1*05 alone is not diagnostic for celiac. Meeting with an allergist and GI specialist is a good next step to explore other potential causes for the high antibodies, such as non-celiac gluten sensitivity or other immune-related conditions. Keep a detailed food and symptom diary to help guide further testing and discussions with your doctors. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I had celiac panel done back in October, only ttg iga came back high  (22 with positive being over 3). Endoscopy done in January, it was  negative. Genetic test done after endoscopy, negative for both hla dq2 & dq8. Did show positive for dqa1*05.  Scheduled to meet with an allergist next week. Not scheduled to meet with GI specialist till after allergist. Confused if I have celiac or what caused high the antibodies originally if I do not.
