I'm starting to agree more and more with my mom that come spring or summer, my roommate has got to go. This is just ridiculous.....know what she did??? Dug in MY pantry through MY things and tried to tell me how and where I should have MY gluten-free foods!!!! i had a slight panic attack because you all know how touchy I am about letting people anywhere near my stuff.

Ahhh this is sooo stupid....

Kind've like my situation, here at my house. Just be glad you have your own pantry to begin with. As for me, I don't have my own pantry. I have to share the cabinet with my family because I can't afford to buy a shelf and there isn't enough space in this house anyway. I want to move out and live with my fiance, who is very sensative to my condition, but my family is trying to keep me from doing so. I'm in just as much of a rut as you right now :(

Bravie- if your family isn't interested in helping keep you healthy, why would they want you to continue living there 'inconveniencing' them?

Habsfan- Can you put a lock on your cabinet? A padlock is pretty easy to install.

I too had a roommate that ate gluten and the panic attacks....yes....that was me every day! Needless to say I live alone now but its really hard..

My suggestion is to somehow or somewhere in your own room store certain foods..just to make it easier for you. I had crates I got from target and put my cereals and other dry foods in there...just stashed in my closet. This is a baby step but it will at least put your mind at ease. Everything I did when I lived with her I had to have my own seperate everything! Fridge, toaster over, storage, bathroom and supplies...it sounds extreme and may make her feel bad but at least in your own head you will know you are not going to be glutened.

One mroe thing....like I said I live alone now and I honestly wish I didnt(Im only 21). If you can last and figure out something tht works I would but it also makes life a little easier.

Good luck!

      Trying to read my lab results

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep...

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      Why?

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?

      Why?

      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
