<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I tried the Tinkyada pasta and didn't like it at all.. don't know why... but i love the quinoa and it doesn't bother me at all.... I guess there is some controversy about Quinoa whether or not it is gluten-free or not?? have you heard about that?

Quinoa is definitely gluten free. Some grains like this are suspect because the facilities may also handle other gluten grains. I know that some countries don't consider all gluten free grains to be gluten free but quinoa definitely is. I eat quinoa flakes for breakfast often - sort of close to oatmeal.

I'm down with the Quinoa too (pronounced Kee-wah) :) I love using it as a pilaf or sub for rice. I'm making it tonight in fact. It is gluten-free.

Making pizza with chebe seemed like too much work to me. I prefer to make pizza sticks with it. It's way easier and I can enlist the help of the kids. Making them is equal to rolling out "snakes" with play-doh. :) We add pepperoni, cheese, extra garlic salt and whatever else we're into. My son made his pizza sticks with chopped pineapple and bacon. :wacko:

To me quinoa is all right...not something I would eat for its taste, but it has great nutritional value.

Tinkyada is the best gluten-free pasta in my opinion--hands down.

Chebe is awesome...I've been preaching about them for over a year and it took a good eight months to get some people here to believe me, lol. :P

Hi there, just read that you had malrotation. My son had that and was operated on 9/11/05 he was only 10 days old. Wow, I was surprised to see you had it at your age, I guess it can happen anytime. They did tell me that it could happen again to him at anytime or may never ever happen again. I hope your doing well, I'm sure it must have been awful for you, I'm glad my son won't have any memory of it just the scars left behind. Take Care.

We ate Tinkyada when I first went gluten-free. Then we tried eventually all the rice noodles at the local Whole Foods store. Rizopia pasta is better! Recently, I found a bag of Tinkyada, and i thought they were kind of slimy....Made it twice and threw the rest of the bag out!

So either it doesn't keep well, or there is better stuff out there :D

Hi there,  just read that you had malrotation.  My son had that and was operated on 9/11/05 he was only 10 days old.  Wow, I was surprised to see you had it at your age, I guess it can happen anytime.  They did tell me that it could happen again to him at anytime or may never ever happen again.  I hope your doing well, I'm sure it must have been awful for you, I'm glad my son won't have any memory of it just the scars left behind.  Take Care.

Yes. Actually, you can't just develop malrotation anytime, but you develop it before you exit your mother at birth. It would be normal that they would find it in your son in infancy (maybe because of projectile vomiting or some other sign). With me, though, I had it, they didn't test me at birth despite projectile vomiting, then years went by without symptoms, then I started getting really sick from it around the age of five and progressively worse through my diagnosis about a month after my fourteenth birthday.

I was told after the surgery that there's a small chance (5% or 10% or something) that it could happen again--if what the surgery corrected came undone...and if it happens and you see these warning signs (green vomit, excruciating abdominal pain, etc.), come back immediately, etc. The surgery wasn't fun, but compared to...10 years of prior misery; physical with pain and stuff, but also mental/emotional with always being sick and not knowing when it's coming back during those short periods of relief.....ya, so the surgery wasn't too bad because I saw the light at the end of the tunnel.

Thank you for writing about it...I've now met two or three people on here with children who had malrotation (someone PMed me a month or two ago).

Hi,

I'm glad your doing well and they finally figured it out for you before it was to late. Yes, my son was very ill shortly after birth, life threatening & once they knew what it was he was in surgery within minutes. His bowel was twisted as well, so they put the large intestine on one side and small on the other and removed his appendix. I know the condition happens while in the womb, I just never knew of anyone that found out so late in life, but then again one of the Bee Gee's (I'm sure your to young to know who they are) died from it and he was in his mid 50's, apparently he must have thought he had the flu and by the time he was going to have surgery he died of a heart attack which was caused by the malrotation (my son's surgeon told us that story) anyways, I guess it can take time to twist up, and apparently you are an example of that with all the pain you went through...that is just awful! You are most certainly right..any green vomit go straight to your emergency room and tell them you have malrotation...green is just not normal for anyone!

Chebe is sooo yummy!

I also found this pizza crust that is nice and fluffy (most gluten-free crusts are thin). It is from the Hungarian Bakery. They have REALLY good cinnamon rolls and biscuits too. I think you can order it online, but it looks confusing. Here's the website: Open Original Shared Link

They are located in Virginia, just so you know.

Well....after seeing how many people seem to *like* the stuff I was thinking about giving it another chance. Stephanie...I saw the Quinoa flakes hot cereal at Whole Foods and I picked up the box...almost took it...but said "nah"....remembering what it tasted like last time. The Quinoa I tried before kinda resembled little beads in a box..does the hot cereal taste better?

I went to a cooking with allergies class. She made quinoa and potatoes. At first, I kinda liked it. They gave us some to take home. I tried it again for breakfast. Yuck! I don't know what happened, but my stomach was not happy! My dad accidently took it for lunch. He called me and asked me what exactly was it. He said the little white things looked like worms. He was really busy that day, so he had to eat it! :lol: My favorite hot cereal is Arrowhead Mills Yellow and White grits. Yum! The White grits taste just like cream of wheat.

OMG...YUM! Such a good idea! I'm gonna try it.

Quinoa spaghetti is my favorite!!! I posted a yummy recipe for it on the "great dinner" thread. As far as Tinkyada goes, I prefer to eat it only with creamy sauces instead of tomato-based sauces. I use quinoa for tomato-based dishes. Just a personal preference I guess??

Ooooh...new idea with Tinkyada Penne (my hubby says this reminds him of Spaghetti-O's) Toss it with Classico's Sundried Tomato Alfredo - and I like to throw in some diced tomatoes with it, but hubby prefers without.

I saw Chebe mixes on clearance / discontinued stickers at a whole Foods in Alexandria, Va today. $2.27 a package, if that's good price I am not sure. Seems like it would be, but I have never bought it before.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      He is. Which makes everything even more difficult. I’m not a believer in “staying for the kids” but I have nowhere to go and it’s not just me, it’s me plus my babies. We live in a beautiful place, lots of land in the country and me and the kids love the place we’ve called home for their entire lives. But Im seeing that he’ll never change, that my kids deserve a happy healthy Momma, and that staying in this as is will be the early death of me. Then I look at the scars covering my entire body…this disease and the chronic stress I’ve been enduring for years that tell me I’m no longer beautiful and no one will ever look at me with interest again. I try self care, try to give myself grace so I can just start loving myself enough to gain strength but the slightest sparkle in my eye and skip in my step attracts his wrath and it all comes crashing ten fold. Life is just absolutely railing me from every single direction leaving me wanting to wave that white flag bc I don’t feel like there’s much hope no matter what happens.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana
