I'd like to start tracking my food and symptoms on a daily basis. Does anyone have experience with any worthwhile applications that will work on a Blackberry?

You can use the calender function and just add notes to each day on the calender for review at a later date.

That's not really the best option for me because my calendar already has so many appointments and reminders. I hate to have to weed through things later.

I have not used this one, but Sparkpeople.com has a free diet tracker. It might be more focused on tracking calories and nutrition but at least if it doesn't do what you want it to do it didn't cost anything.

Note sure what phone you have. I have an iPhone and did a search for diary notes and found a bunch of Apps. The one I liked best was called "NoteMaster". It costs $3.99 and is pretty robust.

I have a Blackberry Bold.

I have a Blackberry Bold.

The app you choose is such a personal choice. You may want to look at a bunch of apps and pick one that fits your needs. A few places to look are:

Crackberry Apps: Open Original Shared Link

Or Blackberry App World: Open Original Shared Link

You can even use a Blog App: Open Original Shared Link

Good luck. Keep it simple.

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice.   I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated.  I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
