    Reading about celiac disease, autism spectrum, raw foods. I used to love to garden but my bones groan, so I have a few weeds. I enjoyed rubberstamping/scrapbooking but also have let that fall to the wayside because of depression/fatigue.

  1. P.S. I also found these re: ankylosing spondylitis Open Original Shared Link (& from google search Open Original Shared Link ): Open Original Shared Link , Open Original Shared Link ...and come to think of it, re the friend I spoke about earlier? She has severe bone problems, the nature of which (dx) I couldn't really comment; just to say she had...
  2. Hello Jack, I see this is an old thread, but I googled for info re: same subject and then found this link, so I thought I'd add it in case it might steer someone else (and you): Open Original Shared Link . My neighbor had high IGA on her negative celiac panel (hence my googling around) and she has blood sugar issues, likely gastroparesis (she is not...
  3. I just wanted to add what I'd recently transcribed from a tv health show I watch. I'm very confused about gluten being in MSG - I've read it is and it isn't. Either way, it doesn't sound very healthy. I thought anyone reading about MSG might be able to use this to further their research: Your Health with Dr. Richard and Cindy Becker (viewed on KSBI...
  4. Hello all. I don't post very often, but I'm always reading. Today I was trying to find info regarding Spirulina and somehow I got linked to this MSG (which also interests me) thread. I know it has been a while since the last post, but for someone else, I hope this might add to the conversation: "Your Health" is a show produced by the good doctor...
  5. Okay, so get this. I move to a smaller town outside DC and get asked to be a receptionist at my DD's new orthodontist's office. I just moved, I'm stressed, but we're outside DC and it's expensive, so I take a leap of faith and leave boxes unpacked and go for it. I work there for a year - and I'm so stressed. I complain of aches and pains and hair loss...
  6. I read the article and was kinda taken aback at what could be misconsrued given the lack of information. Here's my story: After my thryoid was dx hypo 11 yrs ago, somehow I found someone who gave me a book (because we were researching how to help our "not quite right" kids, The 20-Day Rejuvenation Diet by Jeffrey Bland, PhD. I learned about transfats...
  7. I love this topic as I've been thinking about raw (but not doing much about it) for a few months now. I was a fat vegetarian for years and years. I was a Kashi queen for 13 of those. My gluten went to my gut, hips and thighs and arms and and and head! I was in a fog for most of my life. Not so much GI pains; just constipation (which I didn't think was...
  8. My Baskin-Robbins does not know a thing about gluten. Their ice-cream is full of it; except vanilla maybe? I don't remember the only option I had because I declined, and went to the grocery store for Hagen-Daz strawberry instead. It's a NYC thing to get such luxuries?
  9. Hineini - GREAT info. I'm going to take some time to read all your links to be well-informed. Thanks so much for all your time to explain. Jenvan - thanks for your input/sharing also. I'll keep reading your posts to learn. I'm having a burning sensation in my left shoulder ... am I on a witch hunt?! (I swear I am my mother reincarnated in...
  10. Hi Everyone. I'm wondering what your symptoms are like for FMS? What are tender points? How hard do you have to press? How do you tell a sore "tissue" from a sore "muscle"? Can I do it to myself? I was dx celiac disease Feb 1 and have been gluten-free since. My depression has lifted quite a bit-the world has colors and I want to fix up my house again...
  11. Hi Y'all. I think my celiac was pretty quiet as a kid, burped (not literally!) a bit as a teen (fatigue) and blew up during my pregnancy 18 years ago. I've never been the same. No gi symptoms either except constipation until about 4 years ago. See my life story below. BTW: I learn so much from others' life stories and experiences; it goes to show how...
  12. I've had cracked heels for too many years. Sometimes they'll bleed in the cracks if I don't scrape/grate them at least once a week. More is better and makes it easier the next "grating". It's a bother to notice every step you take when you have cracked heels! We have gluten free food to prepare and important celiac-related info to read on the computer...
  13. Hi Everybody! This is my first post; wanted to share my RLS story. As a child I remember having aching legs A LOT. I also used to sleep walk (don't know how that fits in, but I'm throwing it in anyway). My mom would call my aches "growing pains" so I just thought I was growing! It hurt and was obnoxious! BTW-I'm only 5'2"! I continued to have...
  14. I goofed with my first post.
