    Dear silly celiac, I have those on my face, scalp, back, and neck, and some on my chest! I began thinking recently that maybe it is not acne. They itch and burn. Even after they have scabbed over, the itch and burn and make me break them open again. I cannot afford a biopsy to confirm DH, though. I have been gluten-free for over a year...

    Dear JNBunnie1, I think psyllium is gluten-free, but many people do not tolerate it. My system does not like it. I will never take that again! Talk about pain! There are a number of fiber supplements, but I never tolerated them. Those idiots up at IU Med told me to eat a bowl of bran everyday. You know how that ended up! ...

    Dear melmak5, I am surprised about what the new doctor said about the gallbladder. I always read that attacks were more common in the late evening and early morning hours. It also said that attacks tended to occur several hours after eating. You kind of have to go by how you feel about it. If your initial impression is good, then go with that...

    Dear tom, I know about the Celiac group, because HouseKat and I have been PMing each other! I was so glad to finally find someone here in town! Maybe will we get the chance to meet soon! Adele's will probably be the best place! She lives on this side of town, or at least works nearby. We have wondered where you were lately!...

    Dear melmak5, I remember that burping fire feeling! It is awful! Before going gluten-free, I actually had to sleep practically sitting straight up, despite taking Prilosec twice a day! The gallbladder is bad about causing that as well. Yeast contributes to stomach issues, though. I know I am having a hard time with it right now! ...

    Dear Andrea, The Bart probably is getting killed off. That may be why Carla is having it so rough. This makes sense. I am sure she will be doing well in no time! We are sending positive energy her way! Sincerely, Jin

    Dear Andrea, I will keep the Nature's Way in mind in case I cannot find Pau D'Arco tea. If anything, they will have the tea, though. Have you noticed a difference yet? I am not sure how long it will take to show a difference with the Candida. I know some people have experienced die-off, but it may depend on how severe the case is. ...

    Dear Carla, I agree that sleeping in a tent is not appealing to anyone who has a fear of ticks! That would be anyone who has Lyme! Ticks are evil! They must all be destroyed! Donna, get your relocation gear ready! Dear tom, ROTFLMAO! Yeah, we Chinese hicks are everywhere! Nope, it is just me and Henry Cho. We are...

    Dear Christa, I am glad my brother is already doing better! It is difficult for him, but his job depends on it. I told him before, that if he got sick enough, he would be willing to try anything. He was telling his doctor about our phone conversation that morning, and he told him to talk to me! Talk about stunning. My parents...

    Dear Jesse, It is possible! You can be gluten-free, and have a lot of friends! I have plenty of friends. There are ways to be social and be a Celiac. There are times when you feel left out, but compared to being sick, not being able to eat a piece of cake is not so bad. Sincerely, NoGluGirl P...

    Dear melmak5, A glutening can definitely make you very ill for a while afterward. I am glad you figured that out! I never eat out. My reaction is too violent. I am in enough danger sharing a kitchen with careless parents! In fact, I might have been glutened yesterday. I am glad the antibiotics seem to be working! That is...

    Dear Mia, Everyone is either really busy, or just on a lot of other threads. I miss every single person, too! Of course, we have others returning today. That is good! Rachelville will not be the same if the regulars are gone! I hope the metals begin coming out, too. Those things are bad to have in. They disrupt your entire system...

    Dear Ali, OMG! You had to go all weekend without your medication? That is awful! I hate it when doctors ignore the needs of their patients. They do it all of the time. I know my doctor is apprehensive about the tests for me, because she does not know how to read them. However, there is bound to be a doctor out there who can, and she should...

    Dear Mia, It is nice to see you on here! We have missed you. This is the first time in a week you have posted I think. Everyone is disappearing! There is a black hole, and people seem to be getting sucked in. A vortex is sucking people out of Rachelville! Meanwhile, how are you doing? Are the chelation treatments going alright...

    Dear Collette, Yes, they normally give you a ton of antibiotics for Lyme. I already have yeast overgrowth to the extreme, so I was hoping to go the herbal route if possible. I just have a feeling that will be difficult to do considering the fact there are no Lyme Literate Medical Doctors anywhere near here. The closest is in New York. I...

    Dear Collette, How annoying! I know how you feel. Doctors just take their sweet time while we suffer. Why would they care? They are well and happy. I am still waiting on my doctor to checkout that lab for my Lyme tests. You would think it would occur to them I do not want to die and would like to be well and have a life for a change....

    Dear sickchick, I am glad you like the title! I feel no one should have to go without comfort food! Bland is just not in my vocabulary. Life without flavor is no life at all. Everyone deserves and has the right to tastebud happiness! Sincerely, ...

    Dear Carla, Whew! Just reading about the experience made me tired! That would be exhausting moving back and forth. There are so many people who stay put. My parents have. The last time they moved was before I was born, in 1978! Sincerely, Jin

    Dear tom, I really liked that card! I should have gotten it, too! There is no rule where you cannot give someone two cards for their birthday! Maybe I should go back and see if they still have it. I could get it for next year. Yes, what happened in North Korea is horrific. It is so tragic all that those poor people have been...

    Dear Carla, The Festival is nice. I want to go this year. I miss the food, but I can still play games! Rides are not my thing. Some days walking makes me want to puke, so rides are not a good idea. This yeast is probably adding a lot to that. However, the Lyme is in there, I am sure. I just have to get my doctor moving. I am...

    Dear newlyfree, I know exactly what you went through with the diet issue! Before I went gluten-free, I could not lose a pound. I was eating 1,200 calories or less and 30 grams of fat at the most a day. I just wanted to cry. Strangely, I had just about always been too thin, so this was unusual for me. I do not pity people anymore...

    Dear Andrea, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! Do you have any special plans for today? I was thinking maybe a little party or something with the family? My father's birthday was the 4th. I got him a Blockbuster gift certificate and a card. It was difficult choosing between the two cards, because the one was really sentimental, and the other was humorous...

    Dear cruelshoes, It is true. Supply and demand dictates the prices quite frequently. There is not near as many Celiacs as non-Celiacs. Items that are not mass produced are more expensive, because the cost more per unit to make. Specialty foods are always high priced due to this. Sincerely, ...

    Dear sickchick, I am sorry I cannot do oats either! I have not tried quinoa yet. I hope I tolerate it. I will keep it in mind as a replacement. One thing I miss oatmeal most for is granola, but I also miss no-bake cookies. Maybe if I can tolerate the quinoa, I can make them with that. Thank you for the yummus recipe! It...

    Dear Andrea, Seeing bees make honey is neat! Bees are actually very intelligent. They communicate by moving their body. In order to tell each other where a food source is, they do a little dance! Those suckers have nasty tempers, though! I wish you had a digital camera. They are nice to have around. Dad gave me his old Toshiba...
