:( I have severe cramps and if I didn't take Advil I'd have to go the emergency room. I wish I didn't have to tho.

Thanks Dr Vikki. I've tweeted this. I had no idea how dangerous ibuprofen and asprin could be for not only me, but everyone! Your right, the over the counter nature of obtaining them really has stopped me from ever thinking too much about shoving it in my mouth! Is paracetamol okay for us 'glutenoids'?

Hello MsSparkleArkle,
Paracetamol is the same as acetominophen or Tylenol. Unfortunately it is known to put a great deal of stress on the liver and kidneys and accounts for a large percentage of the liver failure seen in the US. Never mix it with alcohol and considering liver disease is approx 5X more likely in celiacs, it's not something I would recommend beyond rarely.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
To your good health,
Dr Vikki

Hello jlauralee,
I understand that the pain is intense without the Advil; we treat many women w/ similar issues. However, and this is a big however, when we diagnose and treat the root cause of their cramps, they no longer need the pain reliever.
The most frequent causes are food sensitivities and low progesterone. Please contact me and we'll see what we can do to help. The Advil gives temporary relief, but you deserve to have the problem solved!
To your good health,
Dr Vikki
