I went friday to my local Whole food Friday for my food, and the cashier that I like to go to, she looks like the classic Celiac, very painfully thin. I never asked her anything but I just happe to ask her if she has ever had the pizza crust that I was buying and she said no and she looked at what I was getting and she said Oh I can eat this, I then asked her if she was diagnosed and she said a month ago. I was happy to know that she was not anorexic and I wanted to tell her about this forum but she had other customers behind me, and I did not want to hold up the line. so I thought that this was interesting so hopefully I can start talking to her more.

Donna,

That's great that you were thinking about telling her about the forum -- I say next time you're there, you make sure to get in her line and tell her. I'm sure she'd be flattered to know you remembered her, and even more grateful when you tell her about the forum.

Being newly diagnosed, I'm sure she's yearning for some contact with others who are going through the same thing. Your new relationship with her, and this forum -- will help her feel less alone.

She was excited when I asked her if she has had the pizza crust that I bought and said oh I can eat that and when I go next friday to do my shopping I will defiantly tell her about the site and ask her how she is coping and all.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      By xxnonamexx · Posted

      So I purchased the Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine along with the Thiamax. I will take along with my Super B Complexes. I stopped taking the multi vitamins. Should I take all 3 vitamins/supplements together with my morning oatmeal breakfast? Do you think I will experience any bad symptoms when taking them.

      Traveling gluten-free in Ireland

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      Of all the countries I have visited in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, I have found eating out in Ireland to be the safest for celiacs. Most restaurants have all allergens (up to 14 different ones) identified on their menus, including wheat and gluten. I have found staff at restaurants to be very knowledgeable regarding gluten and cross-contamination compared to most other countries. Restaurant staff (including management) in Ireland even tried dissuading me from eating some items labeled 'gluten-free' on the menu, fearing that there could be risk of minuscule cross-contamination. Many of the hotels have fresh baked gluten-free breads, pastries, and cakes at their breakfast buffet, something unheard of in most U.S hotels. These are clearly labeled and well separated from gluten-containing items. There are also quite a few gluten-free desserts to satisfy one's sweet tooth.  With everything said and done, the meats and dairy products are simply delicious and worth trying. Overall, I would give dining out in Ireland five stars for celiac safety and quality.

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.
