Hi Friends

I am gluten-free,df, (casein & lactose) soyf, & peanut/free .

I know I saw a list on here a while back and saved it but can't find it now.

They also said Popsicles were ok. What brand was that? Know it can't be anything that is red in color.

If anyone has a list to share, I'd be so very grateful if you can post it.

Trying today to get my list ready for the anesthesiologist with all the meds, drug allergies etc and this would sure me out.

I have the test on Tuesday and must start the liquids tomorrow.

Thanks in advance.

Judy, I don't recall the thread. I should think that any clear liquids would be fine.

Judy,

I think any clear, non-red colored liquid would be fine.

I had chicken broth (Pacific Free Range Organic is gluten-free and soy free), apple juice, and jello. Since I had to start the jug of GoLightly <_< in the late afternoon, I didn't really have time to drink too much.

How about Ginger Ale and 7-UP :D

THANKS FRIENDS :rolleyes:

You know, I've given up sodas...course for this event I sure can use them but for the UI was to give them up. Then I had a few glasses of coke and noticed a big connection with the soda and UI.

Hummmmmmmmmm.

Do you know the Popsicle's that are ok?

saw a list on the chocolate chip thread that listed stuff

going to print Pattis now.

Thanks again.

Wish i could find that thread... :ph34r: or maybe it was just brain fog :lol:

Always have to laugh at the GO LIGHTLY ..how about ..GO HEAVY :lol:

Seems these docs use 1/2 GO LIGHTLY with some pills

Have to go and read up on it. Frankly, have been putting out of my mind but the days fast approaching. :o

Judy--

The brand name "Popsicle" products will list any gluten, so I'd stick with those. ;)

Just no cherry ones :lol: Save those for when you get home from the test! :P

I had one last month, they said anything you can drink that you can see thru= EXCEPT RED COLORING I was real upset with tummy and was not able to drink all of the go-lightly that they had me take 6 hrs before the procedure. I kept vomiting it up but I guess it worked anyways. Good luck, don't be afraid the procedure itself, it is a breeze. I know I was anxious, but you probably wotnt remember anything when you wake up.

OH! Judy! is tomorrow the day?

I put my Phosphsoda in Welch's white grape juice.....and I must tell you, I can never, EVER, drink that grape juice again......I think I would barf. :huh: Because the stuff you put in it makes it taste SO terrible. So that particular beverage is reserved only for colonoscopies now. :lol:

This is one case where I'd think a call to facility doing the procedure would be the preferred answer.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      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

      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:

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      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.
