Dear GeoffCJ, As jerseyangel said, it must be the Celiac right of passage! I guess that is how we know we have officially been initiated! It is sort of like trying to get into a sorority or fraternity! Some of these products were so bad, you had to load them down with something to be able to eat it without gagging! It is scary what...

Dear Jerry, Yep, that Bob Vila is quite attractive! Of course, like all other men that are decent, he is married with like four kids. At least he is not gay like the rest I picked out, though! That is still an improvement. Getting back to the bread, I have been making some rice pancakes that are pretty good. When I get the...

ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosised And Questions
NoGluGirl replied to mom22kids's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Dear mom22kids, Easter candy is often pretty easy for us to have, unless it also needs to be casein free. However, if you find out your child needs casein free, gluten free chocolate, just go to www.choclat.com where you can purchase some delicious and safe candy (they have kosher items too) for your little girl. I got their cake mixes... -
ARCHIVED Need Help And Advice Please....really Sick
NoGluGirl replied to Annnettem's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear Ursa Major, Tarnalberry, CarlaB, and miles2go, Boy am I glad you guys are not fighting anymore! I was getting worried there for a bit! At least we can calmly discuss issues here. At least we are all mature enough to be adults. I wish I could say the same about Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump! What are they, in kindergarten... -
ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosised And Questions
NoGluGirl replied to mom22kids's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Dear mom22kids, I do not know much about the other things, but can tell you the endoscopy some people are awake for, some are not. You can request to be asleep. It is not a pleasant experience, but the docs I had were not aware of anything anyway. I also can help you with a list of things you can find at the regular grocery. Here is a list of safe... -
ARCHIVED Daughter's Liver Enzymes?
NoGluGirl replied to DElizabethE's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear Diane, Lead poisoning definitely affects a lot. It is scary all that heavy metals can do to your system. Lead was why the ancient Romans died out. It made the men sterile, and they went insane. Their plumbing was made of lead pipes! Did your daughter undergo chelation to safely remove the lead from her system? It can cause serious... -
ARCHIVED So Jerry Is Very Frustrated....
NoGluGirl replied to JerryK's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear Abug, I could not live without Chinese food. Someone told me about Thai Kitchen entrees. The Original Pad Thai is so good! I just added some chicken, because that was all I had. It was great, though! I would love to try the recipe on the box, but need to get some stuff first! Someone said LaChoy Sweet Sour Sauce... -
ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
NoGluGirl replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Dear Rachel, It is such wonderful news to know your appointment went so well. This ART stuff is interesting. I wonder about having mercury toxicity and aluminum toxicity. I have many of the symptoms. I know my holistic physician does chelation. The Lyme and Babs issues however, I do not know of anyone near here who treats those. I did... -
ARCHIVED I Suspect My Son Has Celiac
NoGluGirl replied to russtay1's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear Generic, Now that is a good idea! Drive him crazy! Then he will have to do it. I have dealt with gluten making me terribly ill all this time. Finally, my doc said I am Celiac. I had digestive problems and immunity issues from the time I was born! However, I must say that the blood work and biopsies may do no... -
ARCHIVED Trident Gum
NoGluGirl replied to blueeyedmanda's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dear stillframe, I use Splenda, and Sweet'n Low. They are safe. As long as you are not in Canada, maltodextrin is derived from corn. In the U.S. we are okay with those. It can get confusing. I hope this answers your question. Sincerely, NoGluGirl -
ARCHIVED Easter Candy
NoGluGirl replied to nothungry's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dear nothungry, I understand the anxiety. Don't worry, there is actually more candy we can eat than healthy food! I know a ton of things you can get for your child! Here is a list for you: Cadbury Creme and Caramel Eggs Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs and Cups Hershey... -
ARCHIVED Cascade Dishwasher Soap
NoGluGirl replied to Lisa's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dear jerseyangel and Carla, Our dishes are having the same problem! I wondered what was causing that. It is disgusting! I am going to see if we can switch to Electrosol. That powerball is safe! Good, I will get some this week and see if it makes a difference! Sincerely... -
ARCHIVED Dannon Yogurt
NoGluGirl replied to mandasmom's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dear mandasmom, I know that only Dannon's plain yogurts are safe. No others are. That explains why I always got so sick from them! Yoplait is safe for the most part, because they clearly label gluten if it is present. My favorite is the Whips in Coffee Latte! Also, they are kosher as far as I know! ... -
ARCHIVED Passover Products
NoGluGirl replied to mandasmom's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Dear mandasmom, The Chocolate Emporium at www.choclat.com has gluten free, casein free kosher confections. They sell three of the Lieber's cake mixes on there as well. You should check it out! They are located in Ohio. www.jewishceliacs.com/ might have some good stuff for you. I Googled Jewish Celiacs, and this is what I found... -
ARCHIVED I Suspect My Son Has Celiac
NoGluGirl replied to russtay1's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear russtay and confused, Perhaps some reverse Psychology would do the trick. It is amazing how it works. You need to keep in mind as a teenager, their primary reaction to everything is to rebel. They really are not intending to be difficult, it is just they need to feel in control. They feel like you are trying to run their lives.... -
Dear Jerri, Your SIL sounds like a complete idiot! People like that should not breed! I agree that your niece could be malnourished. You can still gain weight if you are malnourished. Your body craves more food because it needs nutrients. When it does not get them, it has you eat more and you take in excess calories. Her mother is being...

ARCHIVED Daughter's Liver Enzymes?
NoGluGirl replied to DElizabethE's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear Diane, Your daughter might need her gallbladder checked. It technically is part of the hepatobialary system. Though she is young, that does not mean much. Problems with it can cause elevated liver enzymes, and elevated bialary acid levels. Gallbladder disease often causes pain in the upper right quadrant of the stomach, right below... -
Dear Megan, I am 24, and know exactly how you feel! I was taken up to IU Med in Indianapolis when I was 18. I went through horrific testing, only for them to tell me they thought I was crazy pretty much. There was a whole bunch of doctors in a team working on me up there, and I found out they missed the gallbladder of all things! I had...

NoGluGirl replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Dear Donna, I am sorry to hear of your financial and car woes. I know what that is like. It sucks. This is incredibly frustrating not having anything although you work for it. The sunshine, walk, and nail polish sound good, though! Dear Rachel and Mango04, I know! We could do a search on "spinached... -
ARCHIVED Need Help And Advice Please....really Sick
NoGluGirl replied to Annnettem's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear tarnalberry, I am not surprised to learn this at all. 1st world countries tend to eat a lot of processed foods. We have nothing that is pure anymore it seems. Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) particularly are a bad idea. This Frankenfood is not good for us. Celiac disease definitely can make absorbing any nutrients in... -

Posted by Floridian To lighten today up a little.... I HAVE to tell you all this......this morning Tony woke up with wet goop all over and on him and freaked out, he thought my insides were coming out.... all I had last night was a package of spinach so I used this instead of my ice pack... and this was a frozen cardboard box and I fell asleep with it on... -

NoGluGirl replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Dear Rachel, Rachelizing is a good thing! As far as the Babesia goes, I meant I agree with Carla that it could still be it. Sorry I was not more clear! Lyme brain maybe, you know! Anywho, that was weird about your kitty. The mold may not have bothered you if it is one type you are not sensitive to. It is sort of like people who cannot tolerate... -
Dear JerryK, LOL! I was wondering what I could do with those gluten free breads that are nasty! What do you know? You are a gluten free Bob Vila! You know Jer, it is too bad you won't reconsider baking. We find men in aprons so attractive! Although, it might hide that six pack you have been working on! LOL! Meanwhile, I have been...

NoGluGirl replied to Annnettem's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Dear Annette, Here are things I suspect could be causing some trouble: You are low on iron and anemic (causes you to feel weak and tired, esp. when you do not eat meat, I have to eat beef twice a week) as well as needing electrolytes, and magnesium and other supplements. They cause heart palpitations and everything else! ... -

NoGluGirl replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Dear Rachel, Thanks for your input on the Babesia. It is a new concept to me. As for your situation, I am with Carla, that sounds a lot like Malaria's symptoms or something like it. My grandfather had it from being in the jungle during WWII. My grandmother told me about it. His symptoms were so bad, they had to change his clothes and...
