    Dear melmak5, I do not know if that is indicative of yeast. If you have a sour taste in your mouth, or an acid taste on your tongue, that is probably a gallbladder issue. I used to get that way. It is odd how your body works! Those tastes in your mouth can give you the urge to brush your teeth more trying to get the taste off of your tongue...

    Dear JNBunnie1, Yes, Leaky-Gut makes your insides terribly sensitive. It tends to cause additional food intolerances. I need to do a rotation diet. Coffee is something I am trying to reduce my intake of. I know it can add to bacterial dysbiosis, which yeast can contribute to. Caffeine also is bad for your adrenals. Mine probably...

    Dear sickchick, Congratulations on going for your Reiki certification! I have always been interested in it. I would like to learn Q'i Gong. I think it is similar to Reiki, but it is of Chinese origin. It is all so fascinating! Thank you for the granola recipe! I do not know if I should ever do oats again. They did not set...

    Dear melmak5, You are welcome! The gallbladder, as hathor said, is a common issue with Celiacs. This disease tends to effect innocent bystanders, such as our poor little gallbladder! So many horrible miseries can be caused by a bad gallbladder. Another thing to check on is an overgrowth of yeast. That may have been caused by the antibiotics...

    Dear JNBunnie1, I always have a list I make handy for everyone. That makes things much easier for birthdays, anniversaries, and Christmas. I include foods, but have many other things as well. It can be anything from favorite stores and restaurants, to their favorite artwork. I am good at finding gifts. I also know how to save money on...

    Dear JNBunnie1, I would have done the same thing! I love to sneak things to people and make them think they are eating the bad stuff. They never know unless you tell them! I am so wicked! My parents were surprised at the cake mix I got from the Chocolate Emporium. They did not think it was too bad! Dear Jody, I agree...

    Dear chocolatelover, I did not even have to do the vinegar, because anytime I ate a salad with dressing based from vinegar, I felt the way Scotty did. It does feel like you swallowed battery acid, or a really angry Netsuke dragon! Rashes have a bad habit of popping up and suddenly disappearing. Eczema is common, too. Candida causes so...

    Dear alamaz, You sound like you are having as rough a time as me! Being 8 months pregnant likely contributes to that. Candida is actually often diagnosed by your symptoms and past. I have been on steroids for asthma, tons of different antibiotics for various infections from birth until now (I am 24), as well as the Depo shot for ovarian cysts...

    Dear Susie, I may very well be mad! I want to be an attorney, and have since I was in 8th grade! There are many things that you can specialize in. I would prefer either doing sexual assault prosecutions, malpractice lawsuits, or forensic related cases. I know it is going to be difficult. However, I feel I can make a difference. Actually...

    Dear melmak5, I would encourage the gallbladder being checked out. It can cause horrible gastric distress, chest pain, and make you miserable. I often felt like I was having a heart attack. I even had difficulty breathing until I could belch! Abdominal CTs only will find low density stones, and HIDA scans are better at picking up stones...

    Dear Angie, It is wonderful you are so considerate of others' needs! Many people do not think of such things. Most of society wanders around thinking about themselves and that is it! We all are happy to know someone who is not like that! You are a great friend, and a caring human being. Sincerely, NoGluGirl...

    Dear Tim, ROTFLMAO! That is hilarious! I would not mind getting one of those! My brother would like that. This is a great shirt! My brother has finally accepted the fact he could be a Celiac like me. He has been overweight his entire life, and addicted to pastries. His stomach issues just increasingly get worse, as mine had before diagnosis...

    Dear leelee20, I am in college as well. I am getting ready to pursue my Bachelor's. If you have a can opener and a microwave, you will be in good shape. Another idea is when you go home to make up your food to last until you go home again. I live at home, and am stuck sharing a kitchen. However, after more than a year of being gluten-free,...

    Dear chocolatelover, Alamaz mentioned something about eating too much potato causes serious stomach upset. The same thing happens with me. I have Candida. I agree with Scotty. If you have been on a lot of antibiotics in the past, steroids, or birth control, it is a good possibility. Another thing is your tongue usually is white, especially...

    Dear Ali, I often wonder when people will realize stupidity is not a virtue! There is a terrible illness rampant in our society called willing ignorance. I prefer to abbreviate it, and call it BIAS, which stands for Brain In A** Syndrome). It always makes me feel less resentful making fun of such people. Humor makes everything better! ...

    Dear Donna, I hope your tests reveal something to increase your wellness! Vitamin D deficiencies are probably more common among us than other people. That would be great if things were fixed soon. Neurotransmitter imbalances can mess up a lot. Of course, if you are like me, you are shooting for any improvement! Keep us posted! We are...

    Dear JNBunnie1, The decaf is a problem for me due to it being so acidic. The decaffeination process causes this. I got terribly heartburn when I tried to switch to decaf before. Honestly, I need the caffeine to wake-up! It is the only thing that gives me any energy. I did not drink a ton of water with the supplement containing...

    Dear Sheryll, Atkins was onto something. I know that there are some dangers to the diet, though. People with liver or kidney problems should not do it. I just cannot be satisfied without carbs. The Zone really did help curb that. My energy level was better, too. Many people have had good results with Atkins. I know there is a risk of becoming...

    Dear cruelshoes, I know what you mean. Gluten is evil! The story of creation goes "God invented wheat, barley, oats and rye, and it was good. But then the Devil created Celiac." That is my version of it anyway. Gluten is dangerous, and I got to a similar point. It was terrifying, where my body was trying to shut down. I never want to...

    Dear Susie, The adrenals are most stressed by transfats, simple carbohydrates, strenuous exercise, and lack of sleep. It is recommended to cut out refined carbohydrates like sugar, pasta, bread, white rice, etc. which you seem to have done already. Getting 6 to 10 hours of sleep and taking a half hour nap a day is also mentioned to help recovery...

    Dear Sherry, I do not know if we have a compounded pharmacy here. I will have to check. It is worth seeing if we do. The buffered vitamin C is probably a good thing for immune system reasons regardless. Psyllium and the OTC fiber supplements hurt me like they did you. My system was too sensitive for them. Sincerely...

    Dear Sherry, Hi there! How is your trip going? What all have you been doing? Where did you go? I am glad you seem to be doing pretty well. Travel can make things complicated and stressful, but you seem to handle it all very well! Thank you for the tip on the C. I will keep that in mind. It cannot hurt! I have C off and on. Alfalfa...

    Dear sickchick, You can tolerate psyllium? I got very ill from it. Isn't it funny how some of us can handle certain things, while others cannot? I ended up with horrible stomach cramps and was very sick when I use anything with psyllium. I suppose it depends on your colon. Mine is nuts. Sincerely, ...

    Dear Patti, I agree we are here to support one another. It is alright to disagree, as long as we respectfully do so. Fighting does absolutely no good. The negative energy does not help any of us heal, and in fact, adds to our illness. I hate it when people get in fights. Sincerely, Jin

    Dear Patti, It is nice to see you, too! I have been wondering how you are. Thank you for the Caltrate information. Maybe I needed to take it with more food or something. Like you said, fillers could be the culprit. There are a lot of possibilities. The nausea is something I have a lot anyway, but the cause could be anything...
