  1. Dear RebeccaMSL, It is actually quite normal to have a severe reaction such as yours after avoiding gluten. By you avoiding gluten, it was cleansed from your system. Once you eat it again after so long, your body treats it like a poison. That is why the severe reaction occurs. Just make sure you avoid it as completely as you can. As...

    ARCHIVED Celiac Dr In Evansville, In

    Dear cmom, I am gluten intolerant individual from Evansville, Indiana! Your son sounds like he is close to my age. I am 23. I was told I did not have Celiac disease in 2000. It turns out my new doctor said I could still be gluten intolerant, and have just as severe symptoms as if I had Celiac! No doctor ever told me that before. Personally...
  3. Dear Sillyactsue, Many doctors are morons. I have been through it all. The idiots told me my stomach problems were just nerves. Well, it all started when I was thirteen, and by the time I was 18, I looked anorexic because I was so thin. I even went to a teaching hospital, and all I got was doped up on meds and told I was mental...
  4. Dear dahams04, I have a list of the gluten-free items Ore-Ida makes. If you tell me what kind he ate, I might be able to help you. I can let you know if it is on the list. Many of their items are safe, as well as their other products which are made by the Heinz company. Their ketchup is okay! Enjoy it! The organic is not safe, though....
  5. Dear seattlefriend, I am glad it helped. People think we are being hypochondriacs, but they do not have to suffer like this! It is wonderful to know others go through feeling like an alien. Tell your pal I would be happy to send the URLs for the prefabricated products we are allowed. I was so hungry all the time because I could...
  6. Dear seattlefriend, Celiacs need to completely avoid wheat and gluten. Major health problems and complications can result from not doing so. Gastric cancers, diabetes, anemia, and a vast array of other problems can result in those who have celiac disease who are untreated. Though I am only gluten intolerant and not celiac, I would...
  7. Dear Can'tEvenEatRice!, Do not go for the ELISA test, it is not very accurate. According to the celiac.org Web site, there are three particular antibodies that should be tested for. They are Immunoglobulin A (Iga), anti-tissue transglutaminase (tTGA), and Iga anti-endomesium antibodies (AEA). Even if blood tests show negative...
  8. Dear vwincuw, I know how she feels. I am gluten intolerant, and people can treat you like you are just a paranoid freak! My mother does. I am 23, and just found out some of my troubles were caused from gluten. I may also have yeast candida. I have suffered with digestive problems to the point I am debilitated and cannot work, fibromyalgia...
  9. Dear Eeyorific, I just recently found out I am gluten intolerant. I have been all over the internet finding gluten free foods that I can have. Going gluten-free without going broke is hard, but it can be done. Nuetragena has numerous items as was previously mentioned by one of our fellow gluten-free buddies. Some tips to save money...
