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.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive, to produce symptoms similar to those of gluten poisoning.

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily basis.

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly flareups.
