Was really bad ulcerative colitis. It was December and I was eating more carbs and sugars then before I knew. It was causing flare ups of inflammation, swelling, and bleeding of the intestines. -
OP did, and I did few years ago. And I just found 3 companies that admitted to using gluten in flavored blends and stress that someone with celiac should avoid all of the coffees they produce. Again sorta happens when you wonder from name brands or the whole K cup thing instead of a pot and grounds. I am just covering those bases. Again name brands and plain...

I just ordered several of the most questionable flavored coffees from christophebean, and will be testing them when they come in, my results are not lab level and it is a high tannin based product which could throw off the results but I will try testing the grounds regardless for the, french toast, chocolate doughnut, and a few others using both a EZ-Strip...

Out of the 7 companies I contacted about gluten in the flavored coffees, 3 got back to me saying not to use their products. As mentioned across line contamination with packing when a company does flavored blends is a huge cause for concern with these especially the K-cups. ON a side note ChristopherBeanCoffee just assured me their coffee is safe and...

Well I am off to search for some more coffee, this has a interesting thing I would love to check. I am going to find flavored coffees in K-cups and ground. I am going to check with several companies and see if I track down some gluten free ones. Lets face it a chance at indulging in the forbidden flavors we can not have in a gluten free beverage form does...

He actually has a point on the coffee concern, with all the "Artisan" coffees and flavored blends out there now days, ESPECIALLY if you get preground where they use the same burr grinder. OR god forbid you use the bulk beans and grinder at a grocery store. You have a high chance for CC with gluten. I have mentioned this over the years but I HAVE gotten...
-
I have been CCed by coffee from a local blend where they used toasted barely ground in with the grounds to give it a desert flavor. I use FreshRoastedCoffee now days just fine with now issues and get a low acid one like sumatra. Your issue might stem from a contaminated machine or coffee mug more then the coffee being contaminated. Or you might be reacting...

Just confirmed I am working the convention as staff . I just need to split the room with someone, otherwise I am sleeping in my car lol.

Only found d 2 in the area that will work with my current complications. They did not mention payment plans will double check with this. I have no issues with tarter etc. I do not consume sugars, I brush a hour after each meal and mouth wash (you supposed to wait a bit after eating I was told or you could damage your teeth) Just for some odd reason...

Update, black area on x rays, I need to get a root canal. Can not afford the $920 and I shopped around and did my research with coverage options and financing. Pain is the tooth is capped and it raises even the best options prices and limits who will work on it. Ran out of anti biotics infection came back a week later I am making do with the same stuff...

Used to get this when I ate anything with carbs/sugars, but this I later learned was from UC and it causing flare ups. I also get this as a after effect from dairy, peanuts, soy, and a few other intolerance of mine but I first normally get really bad stomach issues. Try a elimination diet and see what it might be, would be my main suggestion. You probably...
-
A Distilled gin should be safe, but perhaps you should have a non grain based alcohol? Like a rum which is made from molasses, unflavored just to be safe. I use Admiral Nelson, or Bacardi if I have to in cooking alot. Used to drink them quite a bit before some other gut issues came up. My old personal favorite used to be 1-2 shots of rum in a root beer,...

We always say check the ingredients, even if it used to be gluten-free manufactures constantly change the recipe and you have to check the ingredient list on foods to be sure. I think that might be the case of why you find the product on the suitable list. Here in the US anything with barley extract or barley malt is not considered gluten-free. We have had...

Ugg, tell me about I thought I had bad gut bacteria for years. Carbs would just make be bloat and distend, sugars, rice, any kind of grain. Figured out in Feb, it was UC and that the sugars in carbs caused flare ups....I realize I am blessed I can nuts, I eat nut based breads, muffins, cakes etc, using stevia, monk fruit, and xylitol for sweeteners since...
-
What did you drink and where did you drink it? NOTE if you drink something at a bar using their glasses your asking for trouble BEER IS EVERYWHERE in most bars and a CC hell. If it was at home and a non grain based liqour then I would be really concerned that it might just be alcohol. I personally can not really drink much of anything any more. I love...

Since my new diet change due to the UC and complete keto I feel great so much energy and a clear mind. I started working on a new business idea, I have always dreamed of the culinary arts and doing a full on kitchen or restaurant. But made due to the cottage home bakery and selling Artisan Almond butters and baked goods at the farmers markets. I wish to...

These can be sourced from various ingredients one being wheat. Please check with the manufacture of your products to figure out if they contain gluten or how they are made....and yes gluten in your makeup, and especially lotion, shower gel, etc is a huge issues. Consider this, gluten contamination can happen from gluten protein residue. How often would you...

I will say what everyone else says and get tested again with the endoscope and biopsy to confirm, you will need to be on gluten for 12 weeks for blood test 2 weeks for endoscope at least a slice of bead a day. The thing about celiac is many symptoms can be quite minor, hell even before I had my MAJOR symptoms show I had some of the other issues show...

REALLY odd call out here, I am attending a anime convention called A-Fest in Dallas come August, I need someone to split the room with it who is gluten-free. I take extra precautions, I COOK all the food, bring only CERTIFIED foods into the room, The room will be Gluten Free, Corn Free, Dairy Free, Peanut Free. I am trying to find someone to split the room...

Why Are Families So Stubborn?
Ennis-TX replied to BelleVie's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Could try causally asking your family to get the blood test done next time they are at the doctors. They could have it and only have minor or no symtoms to it. There is a form of it called silent celiacs with no outward symptoms but it is still destroying your villi and causing your body to slowly degrade. Doing so could shed some light on other issues, make... -
Update going in next week for xrays, The pus is gone now, it just drains clear fluid and blood now, no lancing just gets a tad bit of pressure pain and when I rub above the gums under my nose it just drains out that little spot that used to have the pimple like thing seems to be a duct for draining now. I have also incorporated using a hydrogen peroxide...

Gatorade?
Ennis-TX replied to Jherm21's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You will be better off with coconut water here. A blend of bioflovoids, vitamin C, Magnesium, and potassium will do wonders with your circulation and coconut water is naturally high in electrolytes. I used to drink it before my issues with sugars started last year. Since then I had to start taking them all in different form without the sugars. Funny thing... -
So on the amoxicillin 500mg twice a like I thought. Started last night and it did not have pus this morning. Supposed to be on this for a week then go back in for an assessment. Hopefully I do not need a root canal or anything lo!. I could not afford it. On a side note noticed some side effects, joint pain today, frequent bowl movements, and thirsty...

Gluten Free, but is it Really?!?!
Ennis-TX replied to RaRaLorna's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
The cheerios are STILL making many celiacs sick. They separate the oats from the wheat contamination mechanically. This does not really work and has been causing hot spots where your playing Russian roulette on if you get a good box or a bad box......as to the same club, I would not trust them. Here is a list of some safe foods, BTW if you want a cheerios... -
So I have a small infection in my gums seems to be way up there under my right nostril. I feel a tiny bit of pressure when i press there. Now it forms a white head above my right front incisor in my mouth about 1/8" above my gum line and is on the tooth where I had a crown put in few months ago. I lance it daily and apply pressure from just inside my nostril...
