Hey Green Bay Wisconsin,

I am looking for some friends in our area that would like to exchange emails and share our triumphs and trials as I feel quite alone with this.

Looking forward to hearing from as many of you as possible.

We are. :) I don't think Green Bay is a very gluten free friendly community is it?

Anyway, my husband went gluten free at the end of December and so did my 13 yr old. Husband last week reintroduced gluten back in and is finally seeing symptoms return...so he'll be back gluten free again soon I believe. My daughter has ADHD and has been having joint pain and stiffness for 2 yrs...since going gluten free it all went away :). Hoping the gluten free helps her ADHD as well. So I'm cooking gluten free but I personally am not gluten free...but mostly am..LOL.

I'd love to discuss meals and gluten free shopping and eating out in this area. It sometimes does get difficult.

Hope you are doing well.

Hello I am from Little Chute. Havent been on in a while. I am Gluten Free and soon to be Dairy and Nut free. I am feeling pretty low about it today. I am not as upset about the nuts as the Dairy. Since July 1 going gluten free I have added a lot more dairy into my diet...as if that was possible. I am looking for people in the area as well. I found a GREAT source of information in an Appleton store. They sell a lot of gluten free as the owners both have celiacs and they supply me w/ tons of valuable info.

My name is Jody and hope to hear from you!

hi thumper,

i'm not from green bay, but i'm a packers fan since childhood as my uncle is from there...does that count? ;)

no matter where we live, i think we can still provide support to each other through these boards. it's why i joined! a gluten-free diet is virtually unheard of here in Holland, land of bread and beer. lucky for me, there's good cheese here at least.

best wishes,

janel

Carecare,

My mom is comming to visit and she has Celiac Disease. If you could direct me in a place to shop for her I would appreciate it. She will be here the 13th of June so the sooner I can find a place the better off we'll both be. Thank you so much.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
