ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
Mtndog replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Andrea- Big HUG!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wub: What you said about talitha and the clothes is very interesting. My niece is the SAME way- she too is very sensitive physically and emotionally. When she was in the 2's (she's 3 1/2 now) she would have these meltdowns that were really scary....she would completely lose sight of what had made her upset in the first... -
ARCHIVED Enterolab
Mtndog replied to confusedks's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It has always bothered me that doctors make a distinction between gluten-intolerance and Celiac. They make gluten-intolerance sound like lactose intolerance- oh, you can eat it but you'll have a reaction. No damage done though. I think that is WRONG (and i see a GI who is a celiac specialist at one of the best hospitals in the country and their literature... -

Donna- thank you so much for all the links! Those were VERY interesting to read.

carla- Soundslike your trip was productive! And you managed to have some fun too! I have three questions. Could you guys explain chelation, BioSet and ART. I could google it all but it would probably be random. Even if you don't explain, some links or whatever. I did look up BioSet practioners in my area but I want to know more about these things. I... -

OMG- you'e the other Spice Girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're Candy Spice (gosh- that sounds like a stripper name. I get the swollen lymph nodes too. My worst ones are behind my ears and my doctor said therer are a lot of nerve endings there so that makes them even more painful. I think you have lymph nodes all over your body (in places where you don't realize... -

OK- glad I'm not alone in my misery 9although sorry you're company). I once had a massage therapist tell my husband after massaging me "Yeah- next stop Christopher Reeve". I was so angry I mean I know my joints are in bad shape but she should have told me- not HIM. -

Hi laura and everyoneelse- Sounds like a productive appointment, but I'm sorry you're still feeling crappy. The plan spounds like a good one. I was actually thinking today about how little people mention joint pain on this thread- then you mentioned your severe neck pain. There are days when I feel like every CELL in my body is screaming! -
ARCHIVED Enterolab
Mtndog replied to confusedks's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I didn't do the Enterolab testing (although I thought VERY seriously about it). I really pursued an MD diagnosis which took about a year and a half. I NEEDED something to tell me that I wasn't crazy (I know- I am crazy but that's another story ). I basically had borderline positive bloodwork, a negative endoscopy and at first a very positive response... -

Donna- sorry about the uggy day. Hope it calms down for you. We must compile a Rachelville Dictionary and phrase book! In-bare-assed: to be caught in a sauna with very little clothing on and brain too foggy to remember how to open the door. Spinached: to be in so much much pain that one is willing to take a frozen bag of spinach to bed even though... -

rinne- I loved what you said about being beaten and bruised and making your way up a mountain, only to fall onto the rocks. Sometimes I think that I fight so hard I make myself sicker. I am finally learning to accept help and be honest about how I'm feeling. Mold? :ph34r: :ph34r: I REALLY think that the mold in our old apartment was what killed me... -

Mtndog replied to confusedks's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Cassandra- I have never heard enterolab called a scam. Just because someone hasn't published in a peer-reviewed journal does not make them a scam. It sounds like you haven't been gluten-free that long and many people will tell you that it takes awhile to fully heal. You should make sure that all your body products/personal care items are gluten-free... -

Lisa- You are not our toxic friend- you arre a part of the Sister/Brotherhood of the Traveling Toxicities! Jasmine rice, I believe, is no better than any white rice. If you need fiber, go for brown rice. Vitamin C and magnesium help me too...but you have to go slow. If you take too much, you'll feel hideous. I am the self-procliamed QUEEN of constipation...
