I Think I Just Screwed Up

I was making dinner and grabbed a can of S&W petite cut Tomatoes Diced with Sweet ONions & Roasted Garlic in Rich Juices. I dumped it in the pan, then realized that maybe I couldn't eat it.

I can't find S&W tomato anything on the Delphi lists, and I found an old list that said all S&W tomato products but it was updated in 2002. It has spices and natural falvors. I licked my finger, so I may be screwed, but does anyone know if I can eat hte dinner I'm cooking right now?

I think I'm going to cry.

Oh Man, Can anyone tell that I just started flipping out?? I'm not even sure why I grabbed the can, it was on the "i'm not sure if I can eat this yet" shelf.

AAAAAAAAAA <sigh>

Hey, we have all been there. I keep a gluten-free house and went to pick up a can of soup off the shelf today and almost got had. My daughter had picked up several cans off the store shelf and one had apparently been misplaced into a spot with gluten-free ones so it got picked up with the ones that are gluten-free. She did not catch it and I almost didn't. Just the thought of the months of misery that would have caused gives me the chills.

Yes, we sometimes all do stupid accidents.... yesterday I was sitting watching TV, my girfriend had been eating some regular old wheat crackers, and left the package on the coffee table. Without really even glancing at the package, I reached over, grabbed one and put it in my mouth.... what a moron. Luckly the sudden "good" taste in my mouth made me realize, "You idiot, what are you doing!??!" I didn't swallow any but I did feel a little bit crappy(and stupid) afterwards...

Not entirely gluten-free related, I have celiac disease and have apparently developed a corn allergy. I've only been on a corn free diet for a week, so still getting used to it. I was making soup last night and dumped in a bag of frozen vegies....not even thinking....tons of corn in it. Nice. At least my husband can eat it....

      Does Kroger Offer Affordable Gluten-Free Options?

      By Peggy M · Posted

      Kroeger has quite a few Gluten free items.  Right now they are redoing my Kroeger store and are adding everything into the regular sections.  Since this was done some new ones have been added.  Publix and Ingles also have great selections. I actually shop Walmart and Food City to since prices on some items vary from store to store.

      Neurologic symptoms - Muscle Twitching and Hand Tremors

      Sorry but I don't have specific recommendations for doctors, however, starting out with good multivitamins/minerals would make sense. You may want to get your doctor to screen you for where you different levels are now to help identify any that are low, but since you're newly diagnosed within the past year, supplementation is usually essential for most celiacs.

      Test uncertainty

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, I can imagine. My celiac journey started with a rejection of a blood donation by the Red Cross when I was 37 because of elevated liver enzymes. I wasn't a drinker and my family doctor checked me for hepatitis and I was not overweight. No answers. I thought no more about it until six years later when I landed a job in a healthcare setting where I got annual CMP screenings as part of my benefits. The liver enzymes were continually elevated and creeping up every year, though they were never super high. My primary care doc had no clue. I got really worried as your liver is pretty important. I finally made an appointment with a GI doc myself and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive. That was in about 1996. After going on a gluten-free diet for three months the liver enzymes were back in normal range. Another lab that had gotten out of whack that has not returned to normal is albumin/total protein which are always a little on the low side. I don't know what that's about, if it's related to the liver or something else like leaky gut syndrome. But my doctors don't seem to be worried about it. One thing to realize is that celiac disease can onset at any stage of life. There is a genetic component but there is also an epigenetic component. That is, the genetic component is not deterministic. It only provides the potential. There needs also to be some health or environmental stressor to activate the latent gene potential. About 40% of the population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually do.

      Does this definitely suggest Coeliac Disease?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hello @Heather Hill You are most welcome.  As a longstanding member and now mod of the forum, I am ashamed to say I find numbers and figures very confusing, so I rarely stray into the realms of explaining markers. (I've self-diagnosed myself with dyscalculia!)  So I will leave that to @Scott Adams or another person. However as a British person myself I quite understand that the process with the NHS can take rather a long time.  But just as you made a concerted effort to eat gluten before your blood test, I'd advise doing the same with eating gluten before a biopsy, in order to show if you are reacting to gluten.  It might be worth contacting the hospital or your GPs secretary to find out if they know what the current waiting time is. Here is a page from Coeliac UK about the current NHS recommendations. https://www.coeliac.org.uk/information-and-support/coeliac-disease/getting-diagnosed/blood-tests-and-biospy/#:~:text=If you remove or reduce,least six weeks before testing.

      Test uncertainty

      Thanks again. My mom was diagnosed over 50 years ago with celiac so grew up watching her deal with the challenges of food. I have been tested a few times prior due to this but these results have me a bit stunned. I have a liver disease that has advanced rapidly with no symptoms and an allergy that could be a contributing factor that had no symptoms. I guess I’ll call it lucky my Dr ordered a rescreen of a liver ultrasound from 5 years ago that triggered this or I would likely have tripped into cirrhosis. It’s all pretty jarring.
