    Dear Pamela, I know exactly how you feel! It is so difficult to deal with! I am hypoglycemic as well. Having to cook everything and wait for it is so hard! I have decided I am making a change and simplify a bit. I am going to start cooking only once a week! I am going to get everything prepped the day before, and then cook for several...

    Dear Rachel, Donna, Bev, and Carla, I love your new pics! I am still looking for some good ones of mine! I know they are around here somewhere! There are a bunch of old polaroids in an envelope. I just have to find them first! Dear Carla, I took four years of Spanish! I can do any accent. I took some French...

    Dear Sheryll, I am stuck here! I am too ill to work, and there is nowhere else to go! Getting disability in our state is nearly impossible. They find any reason not to give it for people who are in terrible physical shape. I am tired of living with inconsiderate people. My parents do not take this seriously. They do not feel a crumb...

    Thanks for all your helpful posts. It's nice having a veteran around for us newbies.

    Dear Hillary, I went gluten-free, and within three days, there was a difference. I was amazed. When you suffer from stomach problems for years, and suddenly that gets better, it is wonderful! I thought I would never be without reflux again. It had gotten to the point that I was sleeping practically sitting straight-up. That would not be so...

    Dear Rachel, Andrea, Rinne, Patti, Bev, and Donna, You guys are all so cute! I need to get a pic of me on here from when I was little. I will have to look around for them. There is bound to be a good one somewhere! I just have to find it! Dear Rachel, Slower is better with treatment! I am glad you found...

    Dear Donna, You are probably right to wait for a referral from your PCP. That way, you will get into the GI doctor quicker. Plus, as you said, those specialists have a bad habit of accusing people of being crazy. I have seen 3 or 4 GI docs, probably 10 or more if you count the entire team up at IU Med that worked on me. God did that suck...

    Dear 4getgluten and confused, You are very welcome! Anything to make it easier! I am working on an even more refined list that will have everything organized by department to make shopping go even quicker! This is especially helpful if you have children with you! There are a few things I have forgotten to add. We...

    Dear luvtorunn, Wait! Scratch that list! I did not realize you were in Canada! Many things there are not gluten-free that are here! Do not worry! I have a link that will help you! I took the liberty of looking up gluten-free products for Canadians. I do not want you to get sick! Go to Open Original Shared Link to get a full list of...

    Dear mole, I love Women's World too! Gluten caused me to bloat and have difficulty losing weight as well. I had my gallbladder removed several years ago when I was only 20! Guess what is a common symptom of Celiac? Gallbladder disease! My gallbladder was severely inflamed and irritated and nearly ruptured! My doctor said that was not...

    Dear Hillary, Welcome to the forum! I have a present for you! I have a list that should really help. This is overwhelming. I went through this with myself six months ago. You spend most of your day cooking and cleaning obsessively. The rest you are on the phone with reps from companies trying to find out what is safe. I decided to save you...

    Dear missy'smom, Thank you so much for posting this! This is so exciting! I wondered about their apple dip! I love apples and caramel dip! I have an idea for a recipe that would really be great with that! Sincerely, NoGluGirl

    Dear CraigN, From what I can tell, the only thing you need to be extremely concerned about is gluten. Your levels were out of the normal range for the IgA. You also have two gluten intolerance genes. That puts you at severe sensitivity risk. Not a speck of the stuff needs to get in your system! The casein really appears borderline. I would...

    Dear Paula, I am glad you found out early! Had he waited until later to do the diet, he might have ended up with much worse health issues. It is great he has no malabsorption. That means you got him diagnosed before it was severe. I think it would be a great idea if you could get him to talk to others! There may be some of his friends who...

    Dear Woolygimp, I was told by my holistic physician they tend to have false negatives for the blood tests. I would not go by the results. I had them done in 2000. We paid $300 for it to be analyzed by a special lab. Many people on here rave about Enterolab, where they do a full Celiac panel where they test your stool for antibodies....

    Dear luvtorunn, Welcome to the site! You sound like all of us have in the past. We worried we were just insane like every doctor we went to see said. They dope you up on pills (you name it, I was probably on it) and they did nothing but make me sicker, terribly drowsy, or did not help at all. They tell you it is just anxiety and depression...

    Dear Wolfie, One of the other members on here, Cybermommy, posted a great list of toddler friendly gluten-free foods. Here it is: Gerber Graduate Wagon Wheels Gerber Graduate & Parent's Choice dryed fruits & veggies I also buy products made by "Just Tomatoes"-these are mostly single ingredient freeze dried fruits & veggies...

    Dear Rinne, This is so exciting! Our very own resident taifun! Rachelville is so excited! Congratulations on your catering license! Also, regarding the vitamin levels, I have been concerned about that. I have been on PPIs for so long, and am aware that if you are too alkaline in your stomach it can actually cause further problems. I...

    Dear Susan, You never know! We could have met somewhere! So the yert was on someone else's property. Somehow, Tommy Chong comes to mind! I love him! Leo on That 70's Show! If the yert was in Colorado, he and his weed eating Tweedle pigs would bring a whole new meaning to "Rocky Mountain High"! Sincerely...

    Dear corinne, This is interesting! I am glad you shared your expertise. Information such as this is not normally released to the public, although I feel it should be. It is fascinating that organic arsenic is not poisonous. Inorganic arsenic is what we need to worry about then. I get most of my rice flour from the Chinese...

    Dear Sweetfudge, I used to be able to workout two hour straight! That probably was part of it. However, I was not developed yet, either. I was pre-hips. I used to workout on my jogging trampoline doing aerobics for an hour, then do my Gravity Rider. I am lucky to feel like walking half the time nowadays! Sincerely...

    Dear Patti, Bev, and Donna, Your pics are so cute! I am going to try and get some more to put up. I have a Glamour Shot photo from when I was 13. I will try and load that in here. Alison wants to see a pic of my dad. Dear Andrea, I think the only one you missed was Laura. Dear Susan, ...

    Dear Mtndog and JudyinPhilly, Thank you for the compliments! Judy, you can copy my list anytime you like! It is all about making things as easy as possible for everyone! We cannot spend our entire life in the grocery store or the kitchen! Lord knows, I spend half the day cooking and cleaning. I do not have a lot of cookware...

    Dear Slackermommy, I have been gluten free for the same time as you. I was losing a little weight in the beginning, but now seem to not be able to lose any. It could be the yeast contributing to that. However, I am hungry all the time, and cannot go low-carb. My hypoglycemia does not respond well to it. I get dizzy and sweaty...
