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!

      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.
