One Year Anniversary


heathen

Recommended Posts

heathen Apprentice

on thursday, i will have been diagnosed for a full year (time flies, right?), and i want this year to be different from the "will i ever be able to eat again" fest that i had last year. i feel better, i made it through the holidays, i found frozen chebe bread, i baked my first gluten free pumpkin pie--these are all things to celebrate!

so what do you crazy celiacs do for fun--and of course, it has to involve eating, since all major life events come with a meal.

personally, i might hit up PF Changs, but i'm open to suggestions.

Hit up your local movie theater and pig out on popcorn. Of course, you'll want to call first to verify whether or not the popcorn is gluten free. Our theater's popcorn is and many others are as well.

You could curl up on the couch with a few good friends and a big tub of Edy's ice cream (their website tells you which products are gluten free) and watch a great movie.

Or you could go out to eat... Fine dining restaurants can often accomodate special diets, Outback Steakhouse, PF Changs, Carraba's, Bonefish Grill...

Congrats! When I hit my one-year I invited all my friends over for a taco dinner. My one-year felt like a second birthday to me I was so excited!

      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?

      How bad can this get ?? Does it go away??  How long ? Thank you

      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 you. The Azure Market looks promising 😁 Take care S

      I’m glad you have a clear answer.  Some endoscopes have enough magnification for the doctor to see the damage during the procedure.

      Welcome to the club!😉 This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
