    Wow. Now I must also look for citric acid, confectioner's sugar, corn flour, corn fructose, corn meal, corn oil, corn syrup, dextrin and dextrose, fructose, lactic acid, malt, mono- and diglycerides, monosodium glutamate, sorbitol, and starch.

    Is there an allergy test for corn?

    I was extremely frustrated late last week and this week when I felt gluten. I have been very careful to eat gluten-free. A common ingredient I was eating was corn, hard shell corn tortillas and a bag of gluten-free black bean chips with corn. I checked the box of corn tortillas and it listed gluten-free and black bean chips had the gluten-free label...

    Let me make this clear. I have not purposely eat gluten in the last 3 mo. since being diagnosed. But had accidentally had medicine and some food that may of had because of cross contamination or not recognizing it on a food label. Who hasn't.

    Ever since being diagnosed almost 3 mo. ago I'm getting increased joint pain/tingling. And I've also starting getting (on some days) pains in my eye, sore throats, and pain areas on my neck to the touch. I will admit I've found out what I put in my mouth did contain gluten on 'some' occasions over the last 3 mo. after being diagnosed. But I'm hardly eating...

    You might be like me and need to get a vitamin and mineral panel blood test. And make sure it includes iron. We both might be deficient in certain vitamins/minerals. My medicals bills have been so high I've put it off and just started taking a multivitamin instead. But I'm not sure it has it in what I really might be deficient. So I'm going to spend...

    I'm celiac for less than 3 months. I'm starting to get concern about getting all the necessary vitamins being gluten free. Recently my joint pain has increased, pulsating pain in my head, and sore areas in legs and neck have started recently. Or course, anxiety too. I'm currently taking a Centrum Men's Multivitamin. Here's what in it: Vitamin...

    I'm an engineer that was diagnosed a couple months. Instead of going out for lunches I bring in most lunches and have to bring in a snack (gluten-free muffin) to eat around 3-4pm. I spend 1/2 of my time when I get home cooking dinner, preparing tomorrows lunch or also getting groceries. Won't be attending company Christmas dinners, summer barbecues...

    They offer gluten free buns at $2 a pop. I get the grilled chicken sandwich w/gluten-free bun and apple slices. I only put lettuce, tomato, and onions on it. Tough keeping the bun from falling apart. I don't have severe symptoms so can't say for sure if I ate all gluten-free.

    Your rat poison argument is lame. I have been gluten for over 40 years until diagnosed 2 wks ago. And it started at birth. I don't think 1-2 month of gradual reduction of gluten is going to kill me or damage my villi much worse than it is now. I feel worse now after going gluten free than I did being gluten. Why...because of the shock to my system...

    Ok, I get it. A person is celiac and gluten is bad. But why immediately go 100% gluten free. Seems really stupid to me. Why aren't patients given a gradual reduction lowering gluten levels. Instead to shocking their body/brain/etc. of a drastic change of going cold turkey gluten free?

    So I was told my gluten antibody blood test came back positive. The second time my biopsy was tested it came back positive a couple weeks ago. I have a followup visit with my GI doc. this week. Most common of my pre-diagnosis symptoms was my stomach was growling/gurgling. I really noticed it after I ate some Synder's Sourdough pretzels......
