Hello everyone, I am New to the gluten free scene. I self diagnosed my gluten sensitivity and I feel free. I feel as though I have been reborn to some degree. I had been having problems for the past 4 years and never ever thought of celiacs disease. One day a friend of mine had been listening to me complain (being a true friend) and all of a sudden she says are you sure that you aren't gluten sensitive? I said I don't know, never really thought of it, so I gave up all gluten and I cannot tell everyone enough how well I feel! I also have Vitiligo which is also an autoimmune disease and after doing my research figured what my condition was. I also am suffering with a hyperthyroid which gives me a lump in my throat and I feel as though I am speeding(this is also part of the autoimmune community) That is starting to feel better also, I am so very happy to be feeling better. I know it will take a little bit to get my immune system back on track but since I have found this site I am extremely happy, I can eat again!!! Yall have a wonderful day and happy days are coming!!!! Lol

Just an FYI

You are replying to an over 4 year old thread on the topic of Frosty's.

Hello and Welcome! Please feel free to take a walk around this place. There is a lot of great information as you travel down your gluten free road.

Karen mentioned that this is an older thread...yes, and the facts may not be accurate today. But I do think that Wendy's Frosties are still gluten free, as last I checked.

Thanks for the information from all of you but I don't see myself asking questions, commenting or starting a New topic too much. It seems as though I have not been a good girl and I don't do these things right so I may just find my info elsewhere. Thanks buches!

You are new, and are having a bit of trouble finding your way around a complicated board. That is not unusual. Some members here have tried to help you with that. You DO need to learn how to start a topic when your comment or question is not relevant to the original topic in a thread. The moderators have split threads several times so that your question gets the prominence that it deserves.

Most people would not read your post above that I made into a new topic, since it was in an old topic about Wendy's. Maybe with a new title, and in the "coping" section instead of restaurants, you will get some attention.

Please stay with us.

Hi Ann,

Please do stay around. We are actually a pretty nice bunch! :)

if you have a lump on your throat, and are having hyperthyroid symptoms, please consider testing for Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Hashimoto's is an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the thyroid. The docs can test you for TPO antibodies to see if you have Hashimoto's. We have several people with Hashimoto's here on the forum. Women tend to get it more often than men, according to the doctors anyway. I have a thyroid cyst myself and take natural thyroid supplements.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
