Oh, shoot. Sorry! :(

Thank you anyway. No yeast or eggs is making bread tough to find right now. Maybe eventually I will figure something out, we have been doing some experimenting with almond flour lately so hopefully I find something suitable.

Oh, I bet it makes it very hard. Have you tried something like an Irish Soda bread that does not require yeast? This recipe has no yeast or eggs. Perhaps it might work? I personally omit the currants and caraway (not a fan) but the base is good.

I just KNEW there was something obvious I was missing when I was typing above - PASTA!!!! Fresh, homemade fabulous durum pasta. I'm making my own gluten-free pasta but it is just not the same. :( I stick fresh herbs between sheets and roll out, creating lovely patterns and flavour to try to make up for the missing gluten.

FYI cakes and cupcakes are really easy to make gluten-free. People cannot tell they are gluten-free. I have all sorts of recipes if you are so inclined. :)

That would be awesome! Thanks so much!!!!

The weather just turned real cool here. It made really miss making homemade noodles and chicken noodle soup. I made chicken and rice..but it was not even close to the same comfort food!

I really miss Panera's cinnamon bagel too..fresh and chewy. It used to be my treat on the days I ran errunds.

I tried making a pizza, but the dough seemed more like a biscuit than pizza dough. Very disappointing!

I used to make cream puffs every Christmas. They were a family favorite. I found a recipe, but haven't tried it yet.

My sisters will be VERY disappointed if I can't make their favorite treat, so I hope this recipe works.

Man. People mentioned cinnamon rolls... We moved to California a couple years ago, and soon after, a vegan cinnamon bun joint opened up nearby. They're really delicious... But I was getting sicker and sicker and didn't know about celiac. Once I figured it out, I got some rolls for my gluten "bender" before I went in for an endoscopy... Just being in the store was enough to give me a

Reaction, and eating the rolls was hell.

What rotten luck, I sometimes think. I move to a vegan wonderland for food, and two years later, I can't touch most of it! The loss of convenience is the bummer, especially in our convenience-oriented world.

I miss pizza so much as well but what I really miss the most is eating some of my families peruvian and chilean dishes. I went to Chile a few years ago and eating their empanadas and completos were amazing. I also miss a good beer here and there but definitely my families food. We have converted a few things but you know..it's not the same! :unsure:

      Ectopic heartbeats - any relation to digestive issues?

      I just thought I'd update this post. My father has had some issues with his heart rythym and we found giving him an electrolyte drink plus a vitamin D supplement with extra calcium containing food (yoghurt) made a big difference, and very quickly. My own problems with ectopic heartbeats started up again with warmer weather so I thought I'd take...

      The Kiss of Death: How My Romantic Life Suffered after being Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      Bravely spoken. My son was only 2 years old when diagnosed, and certainly felt challenged by being different, and had behavior issues. A pediatrician who had treated many celiac kids once remarked at a seminar that even with behavior challenges in their youth, the celiac kids grew up by college age with great resources inside themselves for handling peer...

My own problems with ectopic heartbeats started up again with warmer weather so I thought I'd take a leaf out of his book, and now, for the second time, after just one Phizz Electrolyte Drink, and a dose of vitamin D (Fultium D 800 x 4) with a milkshake, my ectopics disappeared within the hour.   Probably the Phizz drink rather than the D with calcium, but maybe it all helped?  Just mentioning this in case anyone is looking for answers.

Moderately raised levels can be caused by other conditions as well as coeliac disease. Accuracy of the No-Biopsy Approach for the Diagnosis of Celiac Disease in Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis It is possible to have latent or early stage coeliac disease without histological changes visible by microscope. As has been suggest in this thread, if the repeat test comes up negative and serology is high, request an HLA genetic test from your specialist. Only 40 % of the population carries an HLA gene variant enabling the development of coeliac disease - if you test negative for this, it is quite unlikely that you have coeliac disease.

      The Struggle Has Overtaken Me

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Hi @Ginger38, By now you know that these things improve without gluten. I once saw an interview with a corporation executive where he proudly declared that his wheat products are more addictive than potato chips. Dr Fuhrman (Eat to Live) said find foods that are friendly to you to be friends with.

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      Hi @CC90 Ah... that is very interesting.  Although it is very annoying for you to have to go through it all again, I would say that almost sounds like an admission that they didn't look far enough last time?   I could be wrong, but I would not be at all surprised if they find something on the next attempt.  Coeliac damage can be very patchy, as I understand it, so that's why my own gastroenterologist always likes to point out that he's taken lots of samples!  In the kindest possible way (you don't want to upset the person doing the procedure!) I'd be inclined to tell them what happened last time and to ask them in person to take samples lower down, as  if your health system is anything like the one in my country, communication between GPs, consultants and hospitals isn't always very good.  You don't want the same mistake to be made again. You say that your first endoscopy was traumatic?  May I ask, looking at your spelling of coeliac, was this done at an NHS hospital in England?  The reason for the question is that one of my NHS diagnosed friends was not automatically offered a sedative and managed without one.  Inspired by her, I tried to have an endoscopy one time, in a private setting, without one, so that I could recover quicker, but I had to request sedative in the end it was so uncomfortable.    I am sorry that you will have to go through a gluten challenge again but to make things easier, ensure you eat things containing gluten that you will miss should you have to go gluten free one day. 😂 I was told to eat 2 slices of normal wholemeal bread or the equivalent every day in the weeks before , but I also opted for Weetabix and dozens of Penguin chocolate biscuits.  (I had a very tight headache across my temple for days before the procedure, which I thought was interesting as I had that frequently growing up. - must have been a coeliac symptom!)  Anyway, I do hope you soon get the answers you are looking for and do keep us posted.
