Just Got Diagnosed Now What

Hi all, I have read a lot of your post and I thnak you all for the imformation I have read. It's been very helpfull.

I lost almost 30 pounds in a matter of 3 months. I could not figure out what was wrong with me. I was eating donuts every morning and pizza every day. I should have been the size of a house. I finally broke down and saw the DR. I got the diagnosis today. I'm a celiac. Holy cow a what!!!!!! :o:o

I just opened my own pizza shop 2 months ago. :angry: I was eating all of our types of pizza so I knew what I was selling. BIG mistake. The over indulgance of pizza made me lose weight. What a concept! Now I'm only 104 pounds and look anorexic, i'm completely unhealthy. I started eating everything to make me gain weight. That backfired too. Everything I was eating was reversing the weight. Lesson learned.

So now that I have this CS where do I go from here? It's going todrive me crazy not being able to eat my own pizza.

If anybody has a good gluten-free pizza crust recipe I could use it.

Christy,

Ah I feel so bad for you, just figures you open this great shop and now Celiac creeps its way ujp! I'm sorry I don't have a recipe to post, but if you do a search there are SEVERAL posts on here w with various pizza recipes. And being as that what you do, I am sure with a bit of trial and erro you can figure out a great balance from the recipes given. And please post when do youdo!

I love pizza, and its been great playing around with the different crusts. Good luck, and keep us posted!

:( sorry Christy, to be giving more info you wont want to hear, but you are going to have to be very careful in your pizza shop--airborn flour is as bad for us as eating it--we can get very sick just by breathing too much flour in--my sister became very ill when making her kids rolled out sugar cookies--you may need to check further into this--sorry, deb

There's a bakery (that does all the baking for it's 3 restaurants and other area retailers) near my kids' gymnastics studio that has a great latte... Well, every time I go in there I get sores in my nose. They're totally annoying, but I haven't had any of my other glutened reactions, not even the headaches. It may be you'll be fine. Wear a face mask when mixing doughs?

You might want to contact the baker for Wholefoods that has just started a gluten-free baking (factory?) for the chain. In the bio I read about him, he worked in the regular bakery, with celiac disease, for well over a decade. You can ask him how he handled the flour in the air, if it even bothered him.

Now, you do realize your business will very popular with this group, don't you? Find a good gluten-free pizza crust, let your area know you have it, and you'll have every celiac/wheat allergy individual frequenting your place in no time! (For a gluten-free pizza crust I use the recipe for Crumpets from Bette Hagman's "More from the Gluten Free Gourmet." One recipe makes a large round pizza pan worth. I bake it a bit before topping, top and rebake. My kids really like it.)

Christy- I just wanted to say I am so sorry. WOW opening a pizza shop to find out you have celiac.

I agree be careful with the airborne flour. And let us know where you are, so when you find that perfect crust we can eat, we can come by and have some. :) Boy I miss pizza

      What would you do - neighbor brought gluten-free pizza from Papa Murphy's

      When the pizza was dropped off she told me it had a Udi's certified gluten-free crust. Even so, I am trying to play things as safe as possible for at least the next 6-months. With that said, I returned the two slices to my neighbor and asked her to thank her mom for the pizza. 😊 I will likely bump into my neighbor's mom sometime next week. She sh...

      Barilla gluten free pasta

      @Colleen H, How are you doing? I hope you're improving. Yes, I react to gluten free products with corn in them. Segments of the protein in corn are the same as protein segments in gluten. So I react as though I've eaten gluten if I eat anything with corn. I take a combination of Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and Cobalamine B12 together. ...

My impression so far is the NAC is doing good.  Best with meal.

      @Colleen H, How are you doing?  I hope you're improving. Yes, I react to gluten free products with corn in them.  Segments of the protein in corn are the same as protein segments in gluten.  So I react as though I've eaten gluten if I eat anything with corn.   I take a combination of Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and Cobalamine B12 together.  These act as a pain reliever as good as any over the counter pain reliever.  They won't hurt the stomach like aspirin or acetaminophen.   Thiamine will help nausea, anxiety, constipation, and headache.  Pyridoxine B6 and B12 will help with the pins and needles.  Magnesium helps work with thiamine to relieve symptoms. I also take a B Complex to boost absorption not absorbed from foods.  Niacin B3 helps with the anxiety, too.   Best wishes.

      Curious question

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      I APPRECIATE you validating everything because this is a nightmare and the only reason why im fighting is because I don't want future generations to deal with this bs and medical should take responsibility for their lack of actions. Autoimmune disorder aka " food allergies " should be a mandated reportable disease for the safety of the patients.
