  1. I also get the tightening in the chest when I get contaminated by gluten. Accually last night was one time and I haven't had that in along time. What I have found out for me is that some salad dressings that are contaminated will do this for me. I also get this tightening in the chest from millet which I am allergice too, I didn't know that before but...
  2. i to had lots of depression at the begining and before going gluten free. All the blood work they did everything was normal other than everything relating to iron. However when I started to see a naturalpathic doctor that puts me on a machine of some kind said I was dificient in 18 different vitamins and minerals, she explaind to me that the lack of any...
  3. I have been Dx with Fibymialga more than 2 years ago, however I don't believe I have it an longer. I had been doctoring for many years since I was hospitalized in 1998. I was sick before that but my parents were from the era of if your not dying your not going to the doctor. So when I became hospitalized many test were done and nothing found, did test...
  4. Is Land O Lakes Vanilla Ice Cream gluten free? I had some last night and my head is just pounding that is a gluten reaction for me. I don't usually buy that brand but it was the only one the store had so I tried it. Otherwise I am trying to figure out what else I ate that could have done this. Thanks!
  5. I am a believer in all that pixigirl had to say. I know some people that say they try and then you accually find out well they are walking only 10 minutes on the treadmill that is no effort to me. Or the snack too. People snack and don't realize that they are even doing it. They had a donut at work but forgot to count it, snacked on candy at work or home...
  6. The thing to remember is if you do want the blood test done you need to stay eating gluten until the test is done. I don't think one day will throw it off but a few days will. It just depends if you are the type of person that needs a specific reading to confirm that or not. If not you can just do the diet and if you feel better then stay on it. Which...
  7. Alot of people have problems with fruit. The melons are a problem to lots of people and they are kind of a group thing you can pick out. Watermelon, cantalop, muskmelon ect. I know of people to have problems with apples and if you read lables you will find apple juice in alot of gluten free items for flavor so you may have to watch that if apples show...
  8. Things that I take with me when I go out and about and don't know how long I will be gone is dried fruit, banana chips, trail mix of nuts and things, I also love Glutino meal or breakfast bars. Otherwise fast on the go things I take to work is fruit, Oscar Meyer hot dogs, salad greens.
  9. I feel cold turkey is the way to go. I went cold turkey and didn't eat anything unless I knew it was gluten free. It took a while to get the hang of things but I noticed small changes within a couple of days and things are still getting better 11 months later. Otherwise I can see where you say I will have just a bit of this today and then get on track...
  10. I do have a trail mix that I like to eat. Thanks
  11. Dairy products can do strange things also. You may want to try dairy free for a couple of weeks to see if it gets better.
  12. I have been Gluten Free for about 10 months and I am looking at going Dairy, Soy and Corn free along with Gluten Free. I was just wondering about snacks other than the plain fruits and veggies that people in my situation snack on. I probably wouldn't even need a snack everyday but once in awhile you just want something. What are you choices if you have...
  13. It maybe that your body is just so low on some vitamins and minerals that you feel like your body never catches up to where it should be for energy and such. I had this same problems but add some more symptom also. I seen a naturalpathic doctor after going gluten free (about 2-3 months after starting gluten free) and she has helped me tromendously. So...
  14. I am another one that would never go by test results myself. I have doctored for years before even hearing about the disease and my test said neg, but I was gluten light for a year. Not for Celiac but because I was trying to loose some weight so I wasn't eating pasta, bread and baked goods. I know nothing about the test but I am sure someone will.
