honestly, I don't know!!!

Their nurse is so knowledgable and helpful. I would call first thing in the morning and talk to her (or have her call you back). I bet she will be able to give you an answer that will help you make your decision.

good luck!

It doesn't matter what consistency it is when you ship it to them.

Matilda...I think its like Mariann said. I dont think it matters if its formed or not....I do remember worrying about the same thing though. My malabsorption was in the 900's so pretty bad but I wasn't having "D" or anything like that. I think mine was kinda soft but no runny d.

oh wow...I was just thinking about this yesterday and wondering if they had tests like this. Interesting. My husband had to do the same thing with urine...had to collect it in a jug over a course of a couple days and take it back to the dr. lab.

So when do they like for you to do this test? That's one of my BIGGEST problems is the big d and all those urgent trips...I wonder if that test would benefit me. It does seem a bit embarassing though....all I know is I wouldn't want that job! lol

      nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?

      By smilebehappy · Posted

      Sadly, I just now see the extremely tiny and hard to read wording on the label from some I got from nuts.com last year and it's below the certified gluten free sign which is more obvious. Another concern is that there's no expiration date to be found on any of the packages I have gotten.. It's confusing because they claim these are certified gluten free which Is why I got them due to having celiac. Looks like Tierra Farm has the lesser of the allergens, specifically wheat, so I will have to give them a try. Thanks

      Gluten-Free Picnics--It Seems Like There Should Be More of Them!

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      After many years of running Celiac.com, one thing I've noticed is that I rarely hear about support groups that organize gluten-free picnics. It seem like this would be a great way to get celiacs together. I've attended various conferences, meetings, and events over the years, but strangely, no gluten-free picnics.
