    Hi, I have been gluten free in January 06, and I tried the diet thing and lost in the beginning when everyone said oh wow you will lose weight quick being gluten free... NOT, I lost about 20 in the beginning and since have gained back that and then some. I exercise as well and try to eat right, lots of vegies, less chocolate, but it does not help. No idea...

    I usually make foods at home or my husband cooks as I work 4 evenings a week. I am the only one in the house that is gluten free as my hubby and two kids at home are not. If there is something that I can not have that they are having I make myself something I can have. I have been looking for fast pre made items such as soups or microwave dishes, and...

    Hi BakingBarb, I also bake alot or use to not as much since going gluten free and now actually getting back into it. I went looking for a book that I would use to make those all time favorites it is called Baking classics by Annalise Roberts. It has all the recipes I use to make and flour mixes you can make up for later baking. It does cost more to...

    I just looked up the swedish apple pie and it looks really easy. Would white rice flour do? I dont think we have Bette Hagman's brand here, at least I haven't seen it. I love apple pie and tried the perfect pie crust and I too had to scrap it off the counter. After all said and done it wasn't bad. Before going gluten free, I was a Mrs. Smith's pie person...

    Hi and welcome. I have been gluten free not quite 2 years now. I have days when I still get something that I shouldn't but that will happen. I have 4 boys, three of which has been tested and the oldest is the only one who has celiac and he is also diabetic. There are many people on here that will answer questions or help in any way, so just ask. I have...

    Hi, sorry to hear about your neice. My oldest son had what they call febrile seizures. He was 13 months old when they started and lasted until about age 3. He was put on phenobarbitol. He had to take this medicaine 2 to 3 times a day every day. Usually tylenol doesnt help except bring the fever down. The phenobarbitol would help aid with the seizure...

    I too had absolutely no symptoms, not even the D. I ended up with gall bladder problems and through all of that testing I was told I had it from the biopsy that was done. Later I had the blood work done to confirm what the biopsy had shown. Some people have no symptoms until something else happens. I guess it depends on the person. Also no one else in...

    I have a son (21) that is diabetic, diagnosed close to 5 years now. A normal glucose reading can be anywhere from 80 to 120. Anything above this is when they decide after a number of readings over a period of time if whether or not you are diabetic and if you should be on any medication. A low reading usually means you need to eat something or have juice...

    Hi All, I had this done just about 14 years ago. Done laparoscopy and had no problems. This would be something different for every one that has it done. I had it done as I had 4 boys and did not want any more children. Others have it done for various reasons. The only way to go about it is talk it over with your family and spouse and do what you...

    I just want to add that anyone that does have a Wegmans to shop at, that online under www.wegmans.com you can find the store list of Wegman brand foods lists that have their products that are gluten free. I have printed it and it is 29 pages long. Also their food products also have a label guide on the front of those products for lactose intolerant, gluten...

    Hi, I have been gluten free since Feb 06 and had no problem with dairy until this past Spring. I also had cut back and after a year of gluten free the dairy started to affect me. I asked my doctor about it and he said to switch to rice milk. It is more expensive but what isn't on the gluten free diet. It helped. He also said I could try the lactose...

    I have tried the AMy's products and they are quite good. As far as ice cream we dont have BLue Bell here, but many of the ice cream products where I shop has it listed on the package. With being Celiac I have learned to read and reread labels, just incase something changes. Good luck in finding out about Blue Bell. THere should be a phone number on the...

    Hi Phyllis, I had this done the same way March of 2006. I went in that morning at 6am, surgery at 7:45, about 45 minutes ot an hour, recovery about an 30 to 60 minutes then a room til I could eat and drink without feeling nauseous. Pain was minimal. Where they went in was the belly button area and three other small areas just below middle part of...

    Hi all, Prior to my diagnosis of celiac going on two years, I was quite anemiac for years. Had all different kind of tests, the iron tabs which they said were the best, yeah right. I even had a hysteroscopy and an exploritory to which the doctor then said well you have endometreosis. I do not have this doc anymore. So I was then placed on the pill...

    I believe in the upper right hand corner of the box you read there is an options togggle bar. Not sure if this is your problem but you may have to reset it to standard or something like that. I saw this a few weeks ago when someone else had a similar problem. Hope tis helps. I am fairly new to this as well and have learned a lot just from reading. Others...

    I had migraines for several years, almost to the point I was going to take shots for. I have found that with no symptoms at all for me prior to diagnosis of Celiac, or gall bladder disease, that my gall bladder was only functioning at like 12.8% out of 100%. Which is not good. WIth all the reading I did online, about gall bladder disease and Celiac, that...

    I have noticed on certain days that my face especially on the nose that my face is red. I thought wow I didn't think I was out in the sun that much today. Just like today, it was more cloudy than sunshine and when I was giving my gran daughter a bath I noticed in the mirror that my nose was red. I have noticed it more since going gluten free, but never...

    Well I hate to say it but some families are like that. I have a few family memebers that insist that I eat what they eat. I explain many times and then if they don't understand, I try to print off a blurb of Celiac and hand it to them. Others will go out of their way to make sure there is something there for me to eat. I can't believe it when they do...

    I agree with Ravenwoodglass. The thing that I was told was to stop milk cause it damages the villa in the intestines. I went months after gluten free diet and then had problems with milk. I went to rice or soy milk and haven't had those kind of problems. You can try it, not to much different than regular milk. Kind of like trying different breads, you...

    I have to say thank you Tom for the lists. I checked those over and had gall bladder disease, migraines and PN. During testing for gall bladder disease I was diagnosed with Celiac. Had no other symptoms what so ever. That was after biopsy and comfirmed blood test. Gall bladder out, gluten free diet, and no more migraines, I felt better. Still tired...

    My children are older and the one that has celiac, diagnosed last year, has graduated from school, about 3 years ago now. The younger ones are in high school and even now we get letters from the teachers saying if we are sending in a snack for the whole class that it has to be individually wrapped cause there have been too many incidents with "home made...

    Hi, I signed up to do the blog but after going through all the controls of what can be done and so on and so forth, I can't seem to find where I go to actually write in it. I have gone over the pages again but I get to a page that says lmvrbaby blog but can not write in it. Any help would greatly be appreciated.
