I've been gluten free for only two days and I've been really worried about how to make the correct food choices and eating out. I've read several posts tonight and my mind is at ease. Being new to the celiac world, this forum is extremely helpful.

Welcome here!

Glad you really like this place :) , it's almost like an encylcopedia of knowledge about Celiac, gluten, and its effects on the mind, body, and soul. It's a helpful place.

Need any help, fear not to ask! Most are friendly, epesically if they can steer a person from making a terrible decision and consuming gluten. :blink:

Feel free to PM me if you need.

this forum is a must for the newly diagnosed as it does contain things i personally would have never thought about excludeing from my diet. keep at it as it only gets easier to pick the thing you know are good for you and safe. everyone here is in the same boat and we all need ecouagement and some sympathy and its allways best from people who understand and KNOW what its like to live in a gluten free world. best of luck.

I spent all my free time for about three weeks after I discovered this forum, and am still often here searching and reading old posts. There is such a wealth of information. Most of my questions and concerns have been answered by and expanded on by others and I've been "saved" from the trial-and-error method of determining safe foods and brands.

I recently checked out a newly published celiac book from the library - Celiac Disease, a hidden epidemic by Peter H.R. Green, MD. (director of the Celiac Disease Center and Columbia Univ.) and Rory Jones (a science writer of health and medical topics). After reading through it I found that I knew very nearly everything written in the book, and then some (okay, there were a few things I didn't know already). By the way, celiac.com was mentioned in the authors' list of references.

Welcome! You've found the best place to be. Very very helpful and informative. Keep reading and learning, and realize there could be some ups and downs...but you will stabilize and will feel so much better. And seriously, I think most people on this board who've been here any length of time know more than DOCTORS - - doctors don't live it, WE do.

Keep reading and learnign and you'll do great. :)

      Rectal pain

      When I have had what I think are episodes of this (I've never had a formal diagnosis for PF) it seems to be triggered by bloating caused by something I've eaten - a friend had an episode of this after eating too many apples, for me corn and rice cakes seemed to give me IBS and trigger this. I am not a medical person but it seemed like the extra pressure...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      At a family wedding in Italy last year I was drinking gluten free Peroni which was fine for me. From the Daura Damn website ... " Our guarantee less than 3ppm: each batch is analyzed and certified by the CSIC using the R5 Competitive ELISA test before hitting the market. This way, we ensure that its gluten content is always below 3ppm "

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead...

      Gluten free nuts

      Thank you for all the excellent information. I moved from Wyoming to California. May be its where I am located but So far none of the Costco Kirkland brand I have looked at is labeled gluten free. Same with the Sam's Members Mark. The Kirkland nuts you mention all say they are processed in a plant that processes wheat. I am going to keep checking. Thank...

      When I have had what I think are episodes of this (I've never had a formal diagnosis for PF) it seems to be triggered by bloating caused by something I've eaten - a friend had an episode of this after eating too many apples, for me corn and rice cakes seemed to give me IBS and trigger this.  I am not a medical person but it seemed like the extra pressure down there perhaps added pressure to already sensitised pelvic and rectal muscles. Coeliacs can suffer from bloating when they are first diagnosed due to the inability to digest food properly.  Lactose for me caused a lot of bloating and when I came off it temporarily after diagnosis it helped reduce bloating.  Iron supplements and the timing of taking them also caused discomfort and I had to experiment a bit with type and timing before my gut felt comfortable.   Maybe something to think about?   Some coeliacs suffer from constipation - again, just a thought, but perhaps if you had issues with that it might be a contributor.

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer  support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead are offering supplements for your symptoms. This has helped you but you are not able to work very much.  The Programs I have seen  online usually have 3 parts. The first is a Parasite cleanse. The 2nd is the Kidney cleanse and the  3rd is a Liver cleanse and gallbladder cleanse. You need to doall these cleanses to have your whole body functioning well. I can only reccommend the program I gave you because that is the one I used and still do. (drclark.net)  When I see a newprovider and tell I have Celiacs and they look skeptical I tell them that when I am gluttoned the reaction happens 8 or more hours later with intestinal painful cramping followed by diarrhea. Providers are willing to accept tha I probably have Celiacs and are more likely order tests such as vitamin levels. Is this what happens if you eat only a small amount of Gluten? You mentioned going to Mayors. 20 years ago many Dr.s wanted to include a celiac screening as a standard test so that more people eould diagnosed and not become disabled. It did not happen but the Federal levgislature did pass a law so that Celiacs could claim deductions for the gluten free food they bought. What were you going to ask the Mayors to do?
