Chex Cereal....could it be making me sick?

[Helovesme]

Hello,

I was doing so well taking my entocort....and then.....I had Chex Honey Nut Cereal -- dry for the last few days. I am sick....my right side of my abdomen is hurting...just like old times. I first thought it was great northern beans, maybe it is both?? I am so bloated. It has been 3 weeks on my gf diet. This is the 1st time I have been sick. I can feel the gas making crazy noises in my stomach and intestines. Any advice for me would be most welcomed. I am being super careful....so I thought. THe box said gluten free....is there anything else in there that coould be causing this. I did not eat milk with it. I have not given up dairy yet, my enterolab results did not show I had a problem. Help!

Thanks!

Bev,

Sorry to hear of that setback. The problem could certainly be beans. However, it might be the Chex cereal also. Quite a few celiacs have complained of reactions to GF Rice Chex, for example. No one knows why it seems to be a problem for some people, but not for others. I had to stop eating Rice Chex because it causes me to have a minor reaction, and a few others on this board have reported similar problems. If I were in your shoes, I would avoid it for a while, at least, to see if it might be the problem.
