WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO EAT!!!!! JEEZ! I don't think I could do that if I wanted to. I'm a total carnivore and cheese hound.

I am a total carnivore too...love my meat...I think just reducing the overall load is what counts, so I'll do it in the other areas mostly.

Just popping in really quick, will have to come back and read to catch up....

An important tip about steaming the tortillas, do not let the water boil up into the steamer basket! That would be very bad, you will end up with a pile of mushy gooey ground corn. You want the water below the bottom of the steamer basket and as it boils let the steam come up through the little holes. Hopefully that makes sense?

Susan, they aren't very expensive (I don't think). I have a metal one, not sure what material, and it adjusts to fit different pan sizes. like an unfolding flower looking thing, hard to describe, bt it comes in handy. I steam vegetables with it, and tamales, and now the corn tortillas.

Rinne, beautiful picture!!!

I must confess I have not followed the thread about Megan, I haven't had much time to stray from here. I will have to read what is going on. She will definitely be in my thoughts and prayers as well.

Karen, looks like you are the trouble maker in Rachelville :lol: We have all thought about you and your "D", I wish somebody could find you a solution.

Be back later!

Rinne,

It's so good to finally see you. :P

Jeny,

I don't know about your situation with the different computers.

Karen,

Did you see the post about gliadin foods that someone posted earlier.

What's the thing with altoids? Aren't they a breath freshener? I've noticed on other threads that you are the altoids lady.

Susan,

How are you doing today. What does TMI mean anyway?

Rachel,

Have fun today.

Cissie,

Hope you feel better real soon.

Julie,

I'll keep that in mind....steaming corn tortillas.

Donna,

You've been doing lots of research lately. Did the plums settle well with you?

Patti,

Sounds like you are feeling good too.

Cecile,

For when you get a chance to get on here. Hope you're feeling good today.

Robbin,

Are you there? I forget whether you posted earlier today or not. Are you feeling better today?

Vincent, Ryan, Picard,

I trust all is well with our "fellow" residents.

All the other gals I missed, hello.

Debbie,

Can we add you to the list of jobs for Rachelville?

Yes, it was a little slow at work today, so when there's no work I can play. Well, I think the warning from Penguin was kind of applicable (reminding me of the prune affect, lol)...but that was okay because I'd had C for a couple of days. :lol:

wait....R-ville is perfect, so we don't need counselors, right?? Karen's job can be the Altoids Sales Rep and Dispenser of Good Times.....but she won't have to sell them, just give them out freely, you know, at the parades and all, and the dances at the Town Square.....good times!

We have something in common--My baby sister is 8 years younger than I am. I always took care of her when we were kids, I took her everywhere with me! We have always been very close. I have another sister who is 4 years younger. We also fought a lot when we were kids, and only now, in the last 2 years or so are we finally getting to be close.

Patti, yes it is great to have sisters, I feel very fortunate to have them. :)

Andrea, what an adorable picture of your children, the littlest one looks like he might be a little mischievious. :)

Cissie, I hope you are feeling better.

Thank you for the compliments, it's nice to be seen. :)

Oh and I don't get the Altoids thing either, does this mean I have to go to Google to find out? You mean I have to leave Rachelville? :lol:

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!
