I have to say, having been on this board for over 3 years, that I LOVE it!!!!!!!!! I know people argue and there has been some negativity lately, but I love the fact that I learn something new every day. I just learned I can now drive 2 exits away and get gluten-free pizza at Uno's.

People here are wonderful!!!!!!! If you want to argue about that, give me your best shot!!!!

I love this board too! Without it, I would still be wondering what I could eat and where I could eat. Also, the recipes are great. I don't even need a cookbook! :P

I love this place too! :) :) :)

I don't have a lot of support in the small town where I live... this forum has really helped me learn about gluten intolerance... plus casein intolerance, other food intolerances, thyroid issues, and autoimmune disorders! I wish I had known about it when we first figured out that our son is intolerant to casein.

Me too! :) I think it's hard to communicate when you're limited to words on a screen. I'm sure I come across the wrong way sometimes. I try to give everyone an extra measure of grace. I was just thinking this week how I was so lucky to find this board, and so early on and have gotten so much support. I was thinking "now if I could only find one for diabetes like this"! My local celiac disease support group is great at what they do too. It's just different from what I get here.

:) THANK YOU GUYS!!!!! :)

It's pretty hard to imagine living gluten-free without the internet.

I thank you all for the great support. Life is so much clearer since I visit this family every day. I don't feel isolated. The other great thing is you can talk about any subject without judgement. Thanks...

ok, i'll jump on the bandwagon too!

i don't know what i would do without this board. i've learned so much in 4 months and i know i'd be glutening myself all the time if not for all the good tips i've read. i tell everyone i know about how much of a resource and a support this is. one of my friends is currently awaiting her blood test results and she's already asking for the board info in case she is diagnosed.

so thank you everyone, for being so knowledgeable and supportive!

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Fighting for a name

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
