    i don't know if mine are constant, or if they come and go, but i seem to notice them most when i'm having other intestinal issues (after ingesting gluten, or something else i'm sensitive to). i feel them a couple times a month. they suck so bad!!! the enema my dr gave me was a form of hydrocortizone, but all it did was make me feel like i was on my period...

    i don't know that this is the place to be posting this, but i'm not sure where would be. anyway, i've been reading about elimination diets, and think a reverse elimination diet (get rid of a new food group a week) might be more suited for DH and me. anyone ever tried this one? is it better just to suck it up and deal w/ withdrawals all at once, or drag this...

    how do i know exactly if i have them? i explained my symptoms to my dr, and he said i did, and prescribed me first some hydrocortizone enemas (which i hated!! ), then some cream to use there. the cream helps, but don't feel like it's enough. plus it was a $50 tube, which only works for a couple hrs, and i don't have the money to use it every time i hurt...

    so, seriously thinking about putting myself and DH on an elimination diet. sounds so not fun, but tired of us both being sick, and want to figure out what's making us so. i have severe hypoglycemia. would this make it more difficult?

    Yellow Rose, how is this going for you? I'm thinking about starting an e diet for me and my husband. Here's my main question though: I can handle eating "different" foods, but my husband is a very picky eater. He doesn't like most of the stuff i've read are in e diets. What do I do about him???

    as far as bm's go, i'm usually in the middle. i believe i've had problems w/ hem's so i am very careful not to aggravate them. i take flaxseed oil as well, to help things along. could be i got glutened. also, dh just mentioned this, i have been eating a lot of dairy (ice cream) which i don't normally eat. i think that's causing the tummy ache, today anyway...

    so i went to the bathroom today and there was blood there. lots. and very red. what does this mean? and my stomach aches, kind of cramping. also, on wednesday, i was pretty sick. had a bad blood sugar drop (didn't bring enough to eat at work, and was too busy to do anything about it). i started getting so shaky i couldn't do my job, so i went downstairs and...

    sorry to hear that. usually when i go to wendys i stick to a baked potato, w/ or w/out chili, or the southwest taco salad. other than that, i don't trust them. hope you get feeling better soon.

    anyone have any ideas?

    hm, all i know is disney. maybe look and see what chains they have out there that offer gluten-free dining...

    so here's a question. i bought a baking pumpkin. does it work the same as far as measurements go for recipes w/ canned pumpkin stuff? what would i need to do instead? just thought i'd be ambitious. maybe i'll just make it into a soup, and save the canned stuff for the baking. i read in a health food magazine last month that canned pumpkin is actually better...

    OMG i totally know what you mean RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hm, I'll have to look into this recipe STAT!!!

    i love progresso's cream of mushroom, but it's so hard to find here! most of our grocery stores don't have it, so i when i do find it i stock up!!!

    i also love her site. didn't know the book was out yet! i'll have to get that come payday!

    so i don't know what to do. i just needed someone to vent to. i am so frustrated right now with my life. i feel like my marriage is in shambles. i feel like i have no direction. and i don't have anyone to talk to, at least not face to face, because i have no friends. i am really tired of my life being like this. 75% of me wants to stick it out and fix my...

    My new boss loves sushi! He takes everyone in the office out once a month, and he was asking me the other day where I can eat. I would love to try sushi, never had it, but wanted to know if anyone knew of a gluten-safe restaurant. I emailed Happy Sumo, the place EVERYONE tells me is the place for sushi. This is what they said: Hello , Thank you for...

    Don't know if anyone reads good housekeeping, but they've got this section (or you can find it on their website) about their "Amazing Soup Diet". I was going to try it, and they list several recipes, but I wanted to know if anyone had other recipes I could tweak to make low-cal/fat. The ones they have are minestrone, mexican chicken, greek fish, southwest...

    the trip was wonderful! even better was the fact that my coworkers actually concerned themselves with my diet restrictions. its a very big change from where i was working, where people would put glutenous goodies in front of me and taunt me for not being able to eat them. i couldn't remember the name of the fish house, so we ended up going to McCormick...

    for all of you TMJ sufferers out there, i just gotta say that i know the best doctor around! he has trained under the TMJ experts for the last 10 years, and focuses his practice specifically around TMJ disorders, and curing them. we have a massage therapist in the office, as well as a nutritionist. the doctor is so great, and he understands everything about...

    Hey sharps45 and harrishart! welcome! yes, utah isn't the most up to date with celiac, as far as doctors and shopping goes anyway. i'm ok w/ my dr here in provo, have heard a lot of good about the drs up in slc. no insurance right now though, otherwise i'd make a trip (think i might have more intolerances). sharps - one way to cut back on store time is...

    just had another thought....could it be soy sauce? i know they use that black bottle w/ the red lid, can't think of the name, but i have seen it in the kitchen. i know it has gluten in it. wheat is the first ingredient. i'd ask if thats what they use in the pad thai.
  24. Sweetfudge
    hm, i've never had a problem w/ them. i always say i have a very severe gluten allergy (seems to make it more "real"), and am very specific about having them cook in clean pans. hm, i don't know what to tell you. maybe go in and have a serious discussion w/ the manager...
