I woke up feeling really crappy this morning and was wondering what was safe to take... Luckily the cold/flu syrup I had (i hate taking pills, but syrup I can swallow easier) said gluten free on the bottle. I really need some cough drops or other stuff to take because it hasn't really helped me any. Also is there a cough drop or sore throat lozenge that someone can recommend that is gluten-free??

Vicks Nature Fusion. It says on the website and box that it is gluten free. My hubby has been feeling kind of sick and since yesterday was the weekend I was in a mad scramble to find something that said on the internet from a reputable source that it was safe.

I don't usually use cough drops, or haven't really recently that I recall. I believe when I have in the past though that I've used Halls. (Someone else may wander along and confirm safety.) I do though use that sore throat spray stuff which works wonders and the Wal-Mart brand is gluten free. (Or was at least last time I bought some which was last winter.)

      What might this EMA result mean?

      By Toaster · Posted

      No other tests. This was from about 10 years ago, I noticed it when checking through my all bloods to look for patterns.  I will go back to my doctor...

      Were there any other tests besides the EMA run for celiac disease? If not, you should request them. At minimum, "total IGA" and "tTG-IGA" should be ordered. A more complete celiac panel would also include the DGP-IGA, DGP-IGG and TTG-IGG. And very importantly, you should not have been reducing gluten consumption in the weeks/months leading up to the testing blood draw.

      I'm looking into it. I have several quite low vitamin results which I believe may be from malabsorption. B12, ferritin, folate, vit d all very low. Re-occuring mouth issues, gut issues.

      Have you been diagnosed with celiac disease or are you looking into it?

      Thank you. There is no reference range mentioned unfortunately.
