Got some ice cream for hubbs, I don't remember the brand but it was a good one. I made sure there was no HFCS in it or any corn products for that matter. Anyhoo I decided to try some, they were lil pint sized tubs. I ate a half pint. So I waited and waited for the symptoms, usually I get swelling , gas, a run to the rest room or two ,with alot of pain. And guess what? No pain at all!! Nothing!! I noticed that butter was not bothering me. But ice cream?? Yummy!! So does that mean my Villi are healing? Ohhh I am so hoping so! This was so exciting for me!! I Am kinda hoping I get corn back. Because just about everything has corn in it! But if not thats ok! It just adds weight anyway. But I got Lactose back!!! Whoo Hoo!!

I won't go gun ho! But I will enjoy some now and then. Don't want to over do anything! I am testing the waters with corn products. No HFCS but a lil bit of corn product I think is ok. If it bothers me I just won't eat it for a while again. I am so happy with my weight loss! My gut is still swollen some but nothing like it used to be. I hope it goes down more. I have been doing so good on my new lifestyle change. It 's getting easier and easier to eat at parties and such. I am going to Mackinaw Island for 3 days soon. Going to bring a bag of snack goodies with me! LOL I'm sure it will be a Celiacs nightmare I went last year and ate alot of salads. This year I'm gunna test the waters a lil more.

Thanks! Yup going easy :) I went to a restaurant today, Chili's and well got a gluten-free steak with Mashed Potatoes and a nice veggie. Umm it came with a slice of bread on the top. Ugh! They put the bread on the wrong steak. So back it went. I ended out getting my steak and yup it was yummy! Because I was able to put some butter on it! Ohh my! Just a lil bit of gas but other than that I was fine! Unbelievable! A few months ago I was clarifying my butter! Ohhh the simple things in life!

Lactase pills might help you ease back into dairy.  

 

Mmmm, I love a well buttered, garlicky and peppered steak!

      Oral thrush question

      By JulieRe · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Oral thrush question

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      Advice while waiting for testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
