Welcome here! I live three hours from Edmonton and drive there regularly to go to lovely restaurants and to pick up specialty food ingredients from T&T and the Italian Centre and several little ethnic shops. So, my husband and I know Edmonton well.

Silencio lives in Edmonton - he will likely see this, too.

Initially it does seem like gluten is in everything (and it is) but as you get used to it it truly becomes daily routine. Honest. It took me about 4 or 5 months to get really on top of things.

Do you like to cook?

I live 2 hours from Edmonton, but am there a lot. As my little town doesn't have too much selection for gluten-free foods, I usually have to stock up when I'm in Edmonton. I found Winner's is a great place to look for some gluten-free snacks, actually (odd, I know). :P

You're right! I completely forgot about Winners. I've noticed that each time I go there are different products. And they are less expensive than other stores, of course.

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
