  1. Dear foxglove, I use WaterWorks hair dye. It is a natural henna kind of dye. As far as I can tell, it does not have gluten. It also has no ammonia or peroxide! I use L'Oreal Vive Pro Conditioner and Tresseme ColorThrive Shampoo for brunettes and redheads. (I am raven-haired). As far as I can tell, these are safe, as the companies makeing...
  2. Dear Fiddle-Faddle, I know what you mean. They thought I had h. pylori, too. I had to do the Helidac therapy. It nearly killed me! I did it for four times as long (2 months) as other people. I think that is what made this yeast activate more. Ever since I have had a really hard time getting rid of a lousy pound, no matter how...
  3. Dear Sam, I am so happy for you that the article helped you! However, I would like to point out some things they forgot to mention. You need new cookware, because gluten hides in cracks and scratches, even after being run in the dishwasher! You will also need new cooking utensils. Plus, cross-contamination is a concern. Many foods are...
  4. Dear Charlie, I am glad you finally have an answer to all of this! I hope to at least get the Western Blots done. They are less expensive. I am frustrated, because affording it is the trouble. I hate it because finding an LLMD here is impossible. I worry I will test negative when I can afford to test. Then what? I cannot afford to go...
  5. Dear Mtndog, Good luck with your testing! I may have Lyme and Babs as well. I cannot afford testing right now. My parents want to get the panel for the Celiac/Gluten Intolerance/Soy/Casein/Egg and Genes tests first with Enterolab. Getting the money seems like it will never happen, though. We have home repairs that we...
  6. Dear Andrea, I love the photo! Your dress is so pretty! As far as counseling goes, it is a waste of time and money. My best therapy is artistic stuff. I enjoy writing songs, and drawing. Dear Donna, We will be interested to find out about your tests. Hopefully, it will reveal something that can help you heal sooner...
  7. Dear justme, It is ordered over the internet. However, many people on here have had it done. They said it is very accurate. I had blood tests and upper and lower GIs done. I do not think the team of doctors knew what to look for with Celiac. Many do not. Some GIs are misinformed to the point it is dangerous. One man on here was told...
  8. Dear Ryan, 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 the trouble! 1. There are a number of things in the...
  9. Dear Claire, Just ask if you ever want me to do the spell. By the way, I just thought of something. I remember reading about massages that assist fertility. I read about it a while back. Maybe you should look into that. I am sure you will be able to have a baby soon! The spirituality definitely helps. Remember to avoid...
  10. Dear Claire, Just ask if you ever want me to do the spell. By the way, I just thought of something. I remember reading about massages that assist fertility. I read about it a while back.

  11. Dear Andrea and Rachel, I know it was hilarious with my mom! She was so confused! It was like I was talking about hydroponics or something. Dad asks about Rachelville. He asks how things are here. I update him. That reminds me, when I was on another thread the other day, someone saw my signature and asked what purple...
  12. Dear Kris1, I take Prilosec OTC. I am sorry to hear the company was rude. That is so disappointing! Whenever I have called, I have been lucky not to get anyone like that yet. You can go to www.glutenfreedrugs.com to look up meds. Sincerely, NoGluGirl
  13. Dear ginap73, I agree with blueeyedmanda. You probably do have other allergies. Have you done the Enterolab testing? Their panel tests for soy, casein, and egg intolerances as well as gluten. They also do the DNA testing to see if you have the Celiac gene or the gluten intolerance gene. It is a stool test where they use it to test for...
  14. Dear majicbunnies, I would go with Heinz. I use it. I love it, too! They make a number of safe products. Ore-Ida French Fries and Tator Tots are allowed! Heinz also owns Lea & Perrins. All of those products are safe as long as you are in the U.S. If you are in Canada, there are different ingredients used, so you have to be...
  15. Dear Rachelville Peeps, Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you how now I am worrying over dying a slow and painful death from popcorn. I got so hungry and desperate, I racheled an entire bag of Act II Butter Lover's popcorn! I know it is gluten-free, but the fat could make me really sick. I am already suffering from eating a ton of peas this...
  16. Dear Rachel and Andrea, I was in psychotherapy at the time I was attacked by the guy. I tried to tell my counselor, and she did not care! She was in it for the money. Now, the guy I saw before her cared about his job. We were a good fit. He retired early due to his wife fighting cancer and his mother dying! ...
  17. Dear Andrea, I think hers was almost black. Hers was really dark brown. It looked almost black. I need to put up a pic of my dad, because he looks like her as well. Nice pic of you! Dear Laura, You looked really good there! Your hair is darker now, though. I like it darker better! We brunettes have to stick together...
  18. Dear Everyone, I finally fixed this! This is my great-grandmother who I look like! She even has that thing under her chin like me! They said she was a very nice person. Her name was Fannie Esther Morse. She died of Ovarian Cancer at 33, when my grandfather was a boy. Great-Grandma Fannie used to be a telephone operator down in Eddyville...
  19. Dear BackTalk, Your medication could be the cause. Synthyroid could have an opposite effect on some people I suppose. I am having the opposite problem, I am sorry to say. Even when my Thyroid is overactive, I have trouble with losing weight. I have an overgrowth of yeast in my system. That can make you fat or skinny, too. If you have...
  20. Dear Alison and Carla, I think I am sticking with what I have for now. I cringe thinking about my natural hair color on me! You see, I am not the same person I was then. That is sort of what is so important about it. My black hair represents a stronger, smarter, sophisticated, and more spiritual woman. Alison, as...
  21. Dear JodiC, That is wonderful news! They really should correct that article. They did not mention anything about gluten not just being wheat. Barley, Oats, and Rye and all grains that need avoided as well. They are in practically everything! Keep us posted on the situation! Sincerely, ...
  22. Dear Helena, I kind of wonder if it might be a guilt thing. However, it appears to be more of a denial thing. I think they do not want to admit I have the disease, because it is genetic. That means one or both of them could have it. You see, we have Irish on both sides! I wanted to go see the doctor to discuss the seriousness of the disease...
  23. Dear psparks and kdean823, You are so welcome! There are some wonderful options out there! I am glad you are feeling less overwhelmed now. Some places have had reports of cross-contamination you should know about. Steer clear of Quaker, Bob's Red Mill, and Amy's Kitchen. They are not wheat-free facilities! It is not worth the...
  24. Dear SunnyDyRain, I have been practicing Wicca for four and a half years now. I invoke God and The Virgin Mary as the God and Goddess. Did you know there was Christian folk magic at one time? It ended due to the massive murders during the Burning Times. It was funny how I got into Wicca. I received a Pyramid Collection catalog...
  25. Dear Rene, It is scary what all they sneak gluten into! Nuts can have it. If you get any, I would go with Planter's. They are made by Kraft. If gluten is present, they will clearly list it on the label. Sincerely, NoGluGirl
