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!

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily...

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange.

      Celiac disease symptoms

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly...

In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive, to produce symptoms similar to those of gluten poisoning.

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
