Update And Maybe Good News

I went to the endocrinologist tonight about possibly having Cushings disease. There is a good chance I do not have it. I have to run a bunch more tests to be certain, but I'm so happy that there is some hope. I have a tumor on my adrenal gland but he said often people get those and they dont' do anything at all. They just sit there and they get found by accident.

I've had trouble losing weight, but it could be due to celiac or thyroid.

I'm praying and praying I do not have Cushings! Celiac is enough diagnosis for me.

Glad to hear this may not be anything serious and you won't likely need surgery. Hope your feeling better soon.

I have a good feeling about you! I think of you often during my days and pray that you are keeping your spirits up.

Smile today and tell your family (esp. that great husband of yours) how much you love them. :D

Wow that made my day. Thank you so much! The doctor had lots of reasons it may not be Cushings and it was really a comfort to me. He is a Cushings expert and researcher. He teaches other doctors about the disease so if somebody has it, he's the one who's going to find it.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I would not think store bought yogurt would contain gluten unless it possibly could be through an added flavoring or coloring ingredient. Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free. Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by...

      FDA looking for input on Celiac Gluten sensitivity labeling PLEASE READ and submit your suggestions

      I believe the GFCO does use a common logo for certified gluten free products (those containing not more that 10ppm of gluten) but nothing universal yet from the FDA for standard gluten free products (those containing not more that 20ppm).

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I have a One Pot and decided to start using it one day. I was hesitant at first making my own yogurt, but was surprised at how easy it was. I like mine better too.

      FDA looking for input on Celiac Gluten sensitivity labeling PLEASE READ and submit your suggestions

      Because I spend so much time reading every word on all food packaging, I personally would greatly appreciate it if there was one common gluten-free symbol written in large-enough text, and always located in the same place. That alone will make shopping easier and faster. I dread having to buy packaged food. Thank you very much for asking,

Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.  Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by the nature of what they are. They are hoping to create a marketing edge over their competitors by adding "gluten free" because they know it may catch attention of those new to the celiac/gluten sensitivity experience without having to cost them anything in the way of changing their manufacturing process or doing testing.
