After 3 years of this, I have put together a large zip file of lists and articles that are very helpful to the newly diagnosed celiac.

If you are interested in having a copyof this survival kit e-mailed to you

PLEASE E-MAIL ME AT nisla@comcast.net

in the subject line put "Request Newbie Survival Kit"

this is a large file and it's just helpful stuff I have compiled over the past three years. It includes the Delphi list and several Restaurant menus, School supplies, Candy, articles, information that you can print out and share with others to help explain this diet and the reason for it.

If you have a cable modem it will be a fairly quick download, but if you are on dial up, be prepared to let it sit for a while!

disclaimer:

I did not come up with this info all by myself, I've compiled it with the help of other helpful celiacs over the past two years, and it's all been helpful to me. Also, this file is just a guideline, as always you will need to make your own decision on what works for you and what doesn't.

also, it's a zip file so you will need a program like pk unzip to open it... or any program that opens up archived files.

Lister, I thought I already sent you this... But maybe it was just the delphi lists... I'll send it again.

What is the Delphi list?

I suppose so, just e-mail me at nisla@comcast.net and in the subject put "request newbie survival kit" and I'll send it... and you can judge for yourself if it's useful for a Canadian...

Nisla, I am a New Zealander, (have only been diagnosed since February) so not too sure how much of the kit would be useful, but would like to have it sent to me.

The gluten free forum has been a life saver and wonderful to follow, and I am getting to feel I know quite a few of you all.

Your picture is a bit scary, but hey you obviously have a heart of gold. And when I see your picture with your piece of advise it is comforting.

I must admit that when first diagnosed, I thought coeliac would be a piece of cake, and that with everybody saying to watch this and watch that, I thought they were being a bit too severe. But hey, everybody was right, and I do have to be that careful. I never would've thought I would 've been so sensitive. Most of my immediate family have cast iron stomachs, and I was so used to having quite good health, apart from the diahrea. But now I have arrived here to where any little bit of gluten manages to keep me grounded for a few days, it is quite scary.

This sight is proving to me that I am now on the right track for me, trying to eliminate all manufactured products, and start mostly from scratch. I don't need the treats, as they are not always weight friendly, and I do carry a bit of excess weight. But sometimes I tend to push the boundaries, and that is when I get unstuck, and get to know the loo intimately again, but I am determined to get past that.

I'm quite proud to say, last night was my first dining out in a restuarant for a few months, it was my 49th birthday, and I am happy to say, I survived without any reactions what-so-ever, but I did push boundaries, luckily nothing untoward happened.

Thanks again Nisla.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      My understanding, and ex I erience is that we coeliacs are likely to suffer more extreme reactions from viruses. Eg we are more likely to be hospitalised with influenza. So, sadly, your shingles may be worse because you are coeliac. So sorry you had to go through this. My mother endured shingles multiple times. She was undiagnosed with coeliac disease until...

      Celiac Screening

      Hi all, Looking for some advice. I started having some symptoms this past summer like night sweats and waking at 4 am and felt quite achy in my joints. I was training heavily for cycling for a few weeks prior to the onset of these symptoms starting. I have had low Ferratin for about 4 years (started at 6) and usually sits around 24 give or take. I was...

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange.

So, sadly, your shingles may be worse because you are coeliac. So sorry you had to go through this. My mother endured shingles multiple times. She was undiagnosed with coeliac disease until she was 65. Me at 45. I've had the new long lasting vaccine. It knocked me around badly, but worth it to avoid shingles.

      Hi all,  Looking for some advice. I started having some symptoms this past summer like night sweats and waking at 4 am and felt quite achy in my joints. I was training heavily for cycling for a few weeks prior to the onset of these symptoms starting. I have had low Ferratin for about 4 years (started at 6) and usually sits around 24 give or take. I was doing some research and questioned either or not I might have celiac disease (since I didn’t have any gastric symptoms really). My family doctor ran blood screening for celiac. And my results came back: Tissue Transglutaminase Ab IgA HI 66.6 U/mL Immunoglobulin IgA 1.73 g/ My doctor then diagnosed me with celiac and I have now been gluten free for 3 months. In this time I no longer get night sweats my joint pain is gone and I’m still having trouble sleeping but could very much be from anxiety. I was since referred to an endoscopy clinic to get a colonoscopy and they said I should be getting a biopsy done to confirm celiac. In this case I have to return to eating gluten for 4-6 weeks before the procedure. Just wanted some advice on this. I seem to be getting different answers from my family physician and from the GI doctor for a diagnosis.    Thanks,

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
