ARCHIVED I'm Going To Give Up Eating
NoGluGirl replied to isiskingdom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear isiskingdom, The Blue Diamond Nut Thins do not agree with Rachel--24 either! She had numerous food intolerances. They are a result of Lyme, Heavy Metal Toxicity (esp. Mercury), and Candida. I had my gallbladder out, and fats do not always set well with me. I have been eating peanut butter again recently, and began having pain where... -
ARCHIVED Hair Color
NoGluGirl replied to confused's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dear Paula, No prob! I get it at Sally's Beauty Supply. I do not know if you guys have one or not. I do not think it is just a local place. It seems to be in other parts of the country. Sincerely, NoGluGirl -
ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
NoGluGirl replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Dear Donna, I think the blood may just be old. However, the pain is a problem. I wonder though, if the yeast is causing all of this. I know it effects hormones and causes all kinds of trouble. I would not be surprised. As far as floaters go, I do not get those. I get these little blue sparkling specks. They disappear... -
Dear SunnyDyRain, Yep, it is not just you! It is a relief to know, isn't it? A lot of people probably wonder about this. Working out can making you hot and irritate your system. I have a theory. Maybe because you have a thyroid that is on the low side of normal, your body temp is lower, too. Heat may feel more so than it actually...

ARCHIVED Officially Casien Intolerant
NoGluGirl replied to SunnyDyRain's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Dear SunnyDyRain, Yeah, that tap water will do your thyroid in. Soy lecithin is in a lot of things besides candy. However, the Chocolate Emporium has some soy-free, casein-free, gluten-free chocolate chips. Go to www.choclat.com to see what they have! You will be pleasantly surprised! I love broccoli as well. ... -
ARCHIVED I'm Going To Give Up Eating
NoGluGirl replied to isiskingdom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear isiskingdom, That is right, I remember now that you told me this before! There still could be other issues. You could have gotten an injury to your bile duct during the surgery. It is not common, but does occur. Stones stuck in the bile ducts also can occur. Another possibility is pernicious anemia. I have heard... -
ARCHIVED The Yogurt Mysteries...
NoGluGirl replied to sansglutengrl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear sansglutengrl, Yep, it says so on the label! You know those cracker cuts they have? They have it on the package! They have no lactose! Ice cream is a no-no for me, too. Maybe once our intestines heal, we could go back to it. Sincerely, NoGluGirl -
ARCHIVED Hair Color
NoGluGirl replied to confused's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dear Paula, I am not sure if they have any highlight kits. They might. We get a select number of products here. It is difficult to say. I am going to pick up my dye soon. I will look and see if they have any. Sincerely, NoGluGirl -
ARCHIVED Officially Casien Intolerant
NoGluGirl replied to SunnyDyRain's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Dear SunnyDyRain, It makes you want to scream, doesn't it? The other day, I got sick from beans! I had eaten them for three days in a row, and was fine. The fourth day, I got sick! I even ate less than I normally did. Go figure! There are many hidden dairy ingredients. Anything with caseinate or whey anything is... -
Dear SunnyDyRain, I am very sensitive to heat, as well. If your Thyroid is overactive, that intensifies it. I have that trouble. I always have been sweaty. It is awful! The heat tends to cause D in a lot of people. It does that to me and my brother. Sincerely, ...

Dear scotty, It is scary what all we need to consider, isn't it? There is gluten lurking all over the place! Sometimes, you think you should just go live in a bubble. The good news is, there are products we can use. I have a little list for you. Here are some products that we can use: Dove Soaps, Conditioners...

Dear Gabbysmom, Reading your story makes me want to cry, because it reminds me so much of my own. Tests never showed anything significant. I was told my blood work was fine, and my colonoscopy was as well. That was wrong. I found out I do have Celiac from my new holistic physician, and she said those blood panels particularly are...

ARCHIVED Hair Color
NoGluGirl replied to confused's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dear Patti, As far as I know, my dye is safe. I like it because it does not burn your nostrils out, either! I cannot stand those chemicals they put in some of them! It feels like your lungs inhaled fire! The Waterworks smells like watercolor paint. That is bearable! Sincerely, Jin -
Dear scotty, I just sent it! You should receive it very soon! I do not mind helping anyone. Suffering and not knowing the cause is horrible. All you do is worry. If I can save someone the anxiety of not knowing what is wrong, then that is satisfying in itself. This illness is so ignored. It is also practically...

ARCHIVED Does This Sound Familiar?
NoGluGirl replied to shiloh33's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear Shiloh33, The symptoms you exibit sound all too familiar. I had blood tests and biopsies come back negative. However, that does not rule Celiac out. My physician told me that those tests are not always accurate (particularly the blood tests). I have a typical history, too. I am of short stature and always have... -
ARCHIVED The Yogurt Mysteries...
NoGluGirl replied to sansglutengrl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear sansglutengrl, You may be able to tolerate small amounts of lactose, but not much dairy. I get sick if I eat yogurt or pudding, but tolerate milk chocolate and cheese. Kraft Cheese has 0 grams of lactose. That might be why. It is really odd how are bodies behave. Sincerely, ... -
ARCHIVED I'm Going To Give Up Eating
NoGluGirl replied to isiskingdom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear isiskingdom, I know what you mean. A lot of times, I dread getting hungry, because I am afraid of eating. I did really well the first two months, then boom! I may have Lyme disease plus like ten other things wrong. However, I will tell you, as loco_ladi mentioned, stress makes everything worse! I have an idea... -
ARCHIVED New Celiac ( I Think ) Need Help!
NoGluGirl replied to thecookingnerd607's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear Drew, I know how you feel. Like Carla said, you definitely cannot dispute having Celiac if you have a positive biopsy. She also pointed out that negative biopsies do not rule it out. I am proof. I have had typical Celiac symptoms for years. I had digestive issues from birth! I also have had problems with anemia, gallbladder disease,... -
ARCHIVED Recently Placed On Gluten Free Diet
NoGluGirl replied to proudmomof2's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear proudmomof2, I had my gallbladder out several years ago at 20. It turns out, gallbladder disease is common among Celiacs! Who knew? I still have to watch my fat intake closely. Since you have had a cholecystectomy as well, and pancreatitis, it is important you do not overdo the fat. Eating out is dangerous for us. Your... -
ARCHIVED Upset Stomach Yet Again!
NoGluGirl replied to Walter S's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear Walter, I would definitely go with the others' suggestions here. Ammodium would be a good insurance policy against the runs. Plus, as bluejeangirl and Momma Goose mentioned, a food journal would be a smart move. You can do a rotation diet to see what you react badly to. Then, you can eliminate what you cannot tolerate. Sometimes, when... -
ARCHIVED Hair Color
NoGluGirl replied to confused's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dear Patti, Thanks for the info on this. I use a different dye, but in case I ever need to switch, I will know what to use! There is so much that is difficult for us. It is bad enough we have to fear everything we breathe or eat or drink, but what we wear as well! Any information that makes this simpler is good! Sincerely... -
ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
NoGluGirl replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Dear Andrea and Mia, It is very difficult to prioritize all of this. With the illnesses, the best thing to do is go with the most dangerous and take care of them first. Financially, that is more complicated. This becomes frustrating fast. However, pursuing the other from a legal angle may work out. I just have to be patient and hope... -
Dear scotty, I am seeing a holistic physician. Sikh Chiropractors may treat this as well. Often, they just look at your tongue, nails, skin, etc. Then, they take a look at your history. That is the most important element. I am still fighting Candida. Some people need to stay on the diet longer than others. It depends on the...

ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
NoGluGirl replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Dear Andrea, Let's just say I have made quite a list of likely problems. I also included other things I need testing for that I know are a problem, but need the confirmation for other reasons, such as treatment. I came up with Lyme, Babesia, Thyroid Disease, Celiac/Gluten Intolerance/Malabsorption/Soy/Casein/Egg Intolerances plus genetic testing... -
Dear Ravenwoodglass, You know, a fellow member of the forum and I were talking about corn recently. He and I discussed how the bees are dying off due to genetic modification of foods. He said he reacts to GMO corn. He can handle natural organic corn. I believe the genetic modification of foods is one reason so many people are developing...
