  1. Nobody.. It was worth a try anyways.
  2. I would love to get that list. I have a feeling this is gonna take some work to find something that might possibly work for me.
  3. I am having surgery next week and I need to come with some suggestions for my doctor on what pain killers I can take. I do not do well on strong ones...but I need something stronger than Tylenol I am told. I hate medication. Anyways, does anyone know of any pain killers that are free from Gluten, casein and everything else bad? I am like intolerant...
  4. I am trying to find vitamins, again, that I can eat. I need hypoallergenic ones that is free from everything "intolerance" you can think of: milk, corn, gluten, soy, legumes, yeast, potato, egg.. I have tried Kirkman labs and they didn't work. Haven't been able to find any vitamins locally that are free from any or all of the above. I am super sensitive...
  5. I have had lots of troubles with things down there too. Last 3-4 years has been the worst. Looong periods, spotting in between, had a cyst last fall that went away on its own and persistent pelvic pain. I have always had painful periods too. Nasty PMS the last 4 years... The lady thing has taken over way too much of my life... So finally I was told I most...
  6. I have had that since I was little. I am not sure if it has gotten better since I have gone gluten-free. It might have. My skin is read on my upper arms and face, but it isn't as bumpy at all, so I guess it has gotten better. My half brother has it too. No one in my family wants to have anything to do with Celiac Disease (even if I carry 2 pairs of genes...
  7. I used to get vaginal yeast infections all the time before and had them for yeeaaarrs. Since I went gluten free (and everything else I am intolerant to) I haven't had one single one.
  8. I am born and raised in Sweden. I have done some family tree research and have found nothing but Swedish people so far.
  9. I am probably having endometriosis too. I am having surgery done in February for it. I actually got less PMS from a gluten free diet, but I have had more pelvic pain. The pain might have been worse eating wheat though, who knows. I am curious, did the surgery help you enough to make a difference and has it been enough with just one surgery? I have...
  10. Not an answer, just more questions... I would be very interested in this too. Do you get coconut milk from the store or do you actually buy the coconut and use that in your coffee?
  11. I tried Kirkman Labs vitamins and they did not work for me. Maybe a nutritionist would be a good idea. Did you guys hear about the woman in Ukraine (I think it was) that had a HUGE baby this year? One of the biggest ever seen I guess and she had eaten tomatoes, pasta and potatoes her whole pregnancy. Nothing else (no Vitamins) what I heard.
  12. I had a low grade fever when I was the sickest before I found out what was wrong. I have heard other have had this happen too.
  13. Yeah, I got sick from my shampoo (got it in my mouth while showering) once before I realized I needed to get a gluten-free one. I use Open Original Shared Link products now. Have been for over a year and I LOVE this stuff.

    ARCHIVED Brain Fog

    Brain fog is terrible. I feel a bit better, or much better, from it now this far along on the diet. "Teflon brain" is another thing I notice I get. Things just doesn't stick.
  15. Yes, it is a BIG DEAL isn't it?!?! I was like saying to myself all evening "I ate in a restaurant!". Told everyone. hehehe
  16. It is a local restaurant named CampoBello Bistro. I am going to go back there for sure. I even went out into the kitchen (was invited) to thank the chef.
  17. The bars I eat have stuff added to them. I know I get the daily intake of Thiamin/B1, Riboflavin/B2, Niacin/B3, Vitamin B6 and Folate/B9. I eat several of those bars a day and have been for probably over a year, so I should be good on those things. I also take Calcium with Vitamin D. I should ask the ob-gyn what else I need. I was thinking that I would...
  18. I thought eating in a restaurant would be impossible for me, being so sensitive to cc..but I was brave on Friday and took a chance. My husband called a head and they said they deal with this often and it should be fine. (It was a real nice restaurant, dunno if that makes any difference.) We were told to ask for the woman we talked to on the phone and she...
  19. My husband and I are talking about trying to get pregnant here. I have not been able to find a vitamin that I don't react badly to. I am gonna ask my ob-gyn about not eating one, but does anyone have any idea if it is fine to skip that or if I could possible find a pill that contain folic acid only (I get folate from a bar I am eating)? Would it be safe...
  20. Well, I brought some Jojoba oil with me last time and didn't feel a thing.
  21. It can be very hard dealing with this disease. The hardest thing for me has been the social part. I feel I get punished for not being like everyone else. Food is such a social thing..emotional thing. People seem to always eat when they get together. It alienates you lots not being able to take part. Some are lucky having a smart and caring family around...
  22. I am gonna look for that Hemp milk. Give it a try a day when I feel brave. Thank you for all the suggestions. One good thing happened the other day: I was doing ok eating a "klementin" (those little "oranges" that they sell a lot around Christmas-I don't know the American name for them). That was great. The small things that can make you happy.
  23. I don't eat any carbs really and I have noticed that if I don't eat the Very berry Bars (that has carbs) I can get BS drops that are nasty. Some people need them more than others.
  24. I am in to soups too. I'll try yours but with out the carrots. We actually live with my husbands folks. And I have no kitchen really. I use theirs but can't store anything there. I keep it upstairs where we live and we got a little fridge here for my stuff. There are crumbs everywhere here too, big family and a lot of cooking and baking. We hope to be...
  25. I pretty much eat like you do. I am wondering if the body requires extra when it heals too and one drops in BS if one already have had tendensies to do that from before. Also just thinking out loud... I was looking at your signature Marcia and I had the same thing happen with medications as you. Nothing helped. Now I eat mostly veggies and...
