Gluten And Lactose Free Since 2001 (Celiac Disease)

Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum but I thought it would finally be a good idea to find more people out in the world to talk about having Celiac disease with. I've had it since I was 9 years old. Ill be 21 this year. So who out there has good tips on eating gluten free but in a not so expensive way. So many brands out there are terribly expensive but they have come a long way since when I was diagnosed, there was about 2 brands I knew of. Now there are so many companies coming out with gluten free items, they have it on commercials, movies, magazines! Being Lactose intolerant is also pretty difficult to deal with at the same time. I can still eat a small portion but I will get gassy and that's never good! haha so anyways, since I was diagnosed, I have always wanted to make it easier for people to eat gluten free. anyone who has never had a food allergy will never understand how hard it is to go to sports meets and not be able to eat pizza or subs like everyone else. I always had to carry a lunch box around with yogurt or fruit instead because I was allergic to all the good food! slowly restaurants started to carry gluten free menus and it made life that much easier. MY dream since then has been to open my own restaurant that is dedicated to people with Celiac Disease or even just gluten intolerant people. Anyone have any thoughts on that? what would you like to see served here? would your friends who dont eat gluten free join you?

Hi there and welcome to the forum.

I tend to get as much fresh food as I can, and the prices are comparable to the rest of my gluten eating family that way. I just found the gluten free products didn't suit me, because of other food intolerances. I avoid dairy too! I mostly carry a lunchbox.

Have a good read around, try out the baking thread for food ideas, and ask more questions.

Just want to say welcome and I would LOVE to eat in your restaurant!

 

It would be so freakin' great to eat out in a safe, 100 percent un-contaminated place. I know my non-gluten-free friends would go there too just so we could all enjoy a meal together like the old days, sigh. There are so many good, fresh dishes that anyone would like. Just make sure you serve wine too and I'll be there LOL...

 

You've been at this forever, you must be a real pro.

      Lymph nodes

      By Smith-Ronald · Posted

      Enlarged lymph nodes in neck and groin with celiac are not uncommon. They can take time to reduce even after going gluten-free. Monitoring is key.

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Bayb · Posted

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      By trents · Posted

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.
