Gluten sensitivity and Dermatitis Herpetiformis
Scott Adams replied to amine33's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
Of course we could not actually diagnose you from this image and your post, however, your symptoms and the image are certainly consistent with DH, and to verify it you would need to keep eating gluten daily and go to a dermatologist who knows how to properly test you for it...that is, if you need an official diagnosis to help you stay gluten-free. For... -

How I realized I had Celiac Disease
Scott Adams replied to MrPK's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Wow, that is quite a story. I'm glad you found our forum and it has helped you, and welcome! So hopefully you mean "gluten" and not just wheat, because gluten in also in rye and barley, and can be a hidden ingredient in many things that you should avoid on this list: -

I've not heard of a fever being a side-effect of a celiac eating gluten, but I don't doubt that you experienced it. It's possible it was coincidental and you had some other thing going on, but it's also possible that your immune system was sent into attack mode and was doing this as part of its response to protect you. It would be interesting to see...

Yes, it does say "gluten-free" on it's label: https://www.kraftheinz-foodservice.com/product/10043000009267/CRYSTAL-LIGHT-Sugar-Free-Energy-Wild-Strawberry-OntheGo-Powdered-Mix-30013-oz-Packets-per-Box-Pack-of-4-Boxes?categoryid=featuredmio Note that it contains aspartame which is an artificial sweetener that can cause stomach and gastro issues...

It is not labeled "gluten-free," however the only ingredients are "coffee, artificial flavors." https://www.myfoodandfamily.com/brands/maxwell-house/product/00043000029350/maxwell-house-hazelnut-ground-coffee-11-oz-canister Artificial flavoring is on our safe list, so the product is naturally gluten-free:

Scott Adams replied to Barbara Magistro's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
We can't be sure about this one, as we see no formal ingredients listed on their site: https://www.carolans.ie/ The ingredients they do list are "Carolans Original Irish Cream Liqueur is made with the finest Irish Whiskey, farm fresh cream, and the sweetness of natural honey." If this is the full ingredient list, then it is most likely gluten... -

If you have celiac disease eating gluten would not be helpful towards your goal, which I hope is your health and well-being, right? I would keep a food diary, and consider something more akin to a Paleo diet where you eliminate starches and sugars.

Appropriate Tests?
Scott Adams replied to Coach Foy's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Given that you have Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disease, AND chronic low iron, it is borderline malpractice that your doctor refuses to test you for celiac disease. Having either would be enough evidence to be screened for it, but having both AND IBS and not test? Also, a normal colonoscopy would not detect CD. To get a blood test keep eating gluten d... -
Gluten intolerance
Scott Adams replied to Tobyjug's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My sinuses were basically 90% clogged for over 20 years before I went gluten-free. I had gone to allergists, and at one point was giving myself daily allergy shots for food and pollen allergies, but nothing helped until I finally went gluten-free. So in my case the two were related, although allergy issues are not seen in most lists of celiac disease... -

I agree @cyclinglady that with cosmetics having "gluten-free" on the label probably isn't required, and going by ingredients is likely safe, but given the choice between buying one with it on the label vs. not I generally go with GF because they likely are more careful when sourcing ingredients than a company who may not be focused on the celiac crowd.
