  1. Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

  2. I think that there is a link too. Once you have gone gluten free, I think it is hard to maintain the right level of fiber in your diet. I think more should be studied on this and how a celiac can get the right balance of fiber. I am eating the Celiac diet and now am doing my best to also eat the diverticulitus diet as well. There is so much mixed information...
  3. Hi Deb, Do you a website or could you recommend or a book that would give me the details of the diet for diverticulitus. The Celiac Diet I have been managing for year. Maybe managing too well, as I even began to gain weight. I have tried to research but there is just so much conflicting info. Give my best to your Dad. Thank you, Paulette
  4. Hi Kristine, I have Celiac Disease and have been told they believe I have diverticulitus too now. Could you please tell me how they confirmed you had diverticulitus? Could also please tell me where I could read about the diet for Diverticulitus. The Celiac diet I have learned well over the years but am new to the diverticulitus. I wondered if it was...
  5. I am sorry to hear that your Mom is going through so much. She is so blessed to have you to help help her. In regard to the taste in her metallic taste she is experiencing. I have taken Cipro two strong rounds of it because they felt I had an infection in my stomach due to the diverticulitus. It left non taste in my mouth. I did however have a friend...

  7. Karen, I am sorry to hear that your Mom has been so sick. She certainly is blessed to have you to accompany her for her appointments. I am with you in that my family is so important to me. We all try to be there for each other. I pray that she finds some answers when she goes for the colonoscopy with her GI doc. When you think of your grandfather we...

    ARCHIVED Photophobia?

    Before I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease, I had this and it accompained migraine headaches. I just had to lie perfectly still with the shades drawn. A lot of nausea accompanied these migraines too. Mirgraines were a regular part of my life until I started the Celiac Diet. I often use to see floaters in advance of coming down with the mirgraine. Sometimes...
  9. Sorry to hear that she is so ill. Hopefully the postings here can help her too. I wish I could be of more help to you. I was put on a strong course of antibiotics for almost 28 days. This got my infection under control. Next was the basic elimination of things I new and some I had already done. I had already eliminated popcorn, peelings, some seeds...
  10. My son and I both have Celiac Disease. It affected us oppositely. I lost weight before being diagnosed and gained weight after I started the celiac disease diet. My son lost around 100 pounds within the 8 months, after starting the Celiac Diet. We could never understand why he always was over weight as a child, as he didn't eat enough to be the weight...
  11. Hi Laura, I am very thankful for the people who have responded. I have indeed done searches on amazon but don't know how to choose which book is a good resource. It would be great if I could find someone who has Diverticulitis who could recommend a book. The newest publication I found was from 2001. I would think there would be a newer publications...
  12. Your post was so interesting, as I am not sure which came first. They were just diagnosed in celiac disease first and the Divertic last. I remember what I would consider my first signs of having Celiac Disease. I was always sick to my stomach as a child. My Mom was a wonderful mother who always tried to cook me a nutrious breakfast (oatmeal, ralstons etc...
  13. Kbtoyssni, I was in my early 40's when I found out I had Celiac Disease. My son was in his early 20's, thanks to knowing I had the diesease, we knew what to look for when it came to my son. I suspect my grandmother had Celiac Disease, but diagnosis wasn't really dealt with much at all then. Bless her heart, she had to wear gloves to cook with flour...
  14. Angie, Thank you for your response. My son (who is now 25) and I both have Celiac Disease. Would your Mom, now of a good resource to help me with the diverticulitis diet. I have tried to research but keep finding so many mixed results. It would be nice to know what I must restrict. Sincere thanks, Jpmat
  15. Thank you Laura for the welcome. It is encouraging and I sincerely appreciate you taking the time. Paulette
