Hi Sasha

hvala vam mnogo

I think I forgot most croatian l learned more than 30 years ago!

You are lucky to get Schar gluten free foods. We cannot buy many of them in US and none in Hawaii so I have to order them.

What other foods do you eat usually? We have lots of tropical fruit in Hawaii so I eat a lot of that but too much govedinu, teletinu and like culbastija. Before I was vegetarian but when I got celiac I changed.

Meline, can you buy Schar gluten-free foods in Athens?

IM STILL WAITING FOR gluten-free PHilo <G>

see you later

Thanks for all ;)

-_- Just always loved languages.. Trouble is I forget most of them or mix them up.

My 4 year old granddaughter already speaks 3 going on 4 languages so we have a lot of fun mixing them up so mom and grandma dont know what we are talking about.

The funniest thing that ever happened was once when my daughter and I would practice japanese and my wife and son couldnt understand us. One night Wife and son said they were going to a movie. A few minutes after they left I got a call from a friend who teaches beginning Japanese at the local college. She got very sick and asked if I could teach for her that night.

I did, got to the class and found my son and wife in the class. Their expression was priceless...

You are so cool!! :D

I was born in 1990 and until 1999 I have ate all. In 1999 doctors were diagnostic celiac. After 1999 I eat everything without gluten. In Croatia celiac is not so well known, so there isn`t a lot of products, so I eat only rice, potatoes, and so these things that I can eat.

Schar products are very delicious, but they are very expensive.

The biggest problem is when I mus go somewhere on the way so I have to carry my gluten-free food with me and explain to others what I have, and why I have to eat that.

People think that I'm not normal, but I am like everyone else, but I just have to watch what I can eat.

Hi Sasha

I was told I had celiac only about 4 years ago. At first it was hard to adjust because I teach sometimes at cooking school and work with many chefs in Hawaii.

ALl the gluten free products are expensive here too especially in Hawaii because of added shipping cost. Some are good but some are not so good. I think many forum members carry food with them. I usually carry salad dressing and soy sauce.

Some restaurants here are very good about helping celiacs have good meals when they go out to eat.

Take care for now

Hi! I'm going to Croatia next week. How do you say "I am allergic to peanuts, nuts, peas, beans, wheat, rye and oats" in Serbo-Croat? Or, what do you tell waiters so they don't serve you something with gluten?

Thanks!

Hi Sasha! I was just diagnosed with Celiac 2 weeks ago and am just starting to learn everything and figure it all out. I am traveling for the next 2 weeks with my family in Croatia and Bosnia and don't know how I am going to eat gluten free!! Do you have suggestions of gluten free dishes to order in restaurants or any other helpful tips?? Thanks a ton!

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      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.
