  1. yep the mayo is in southern minnesota. Actually one of my friends just got hired there today as an RN so she has a job waiting for her there when she graduates in may.
  2. Well i got in with my gp for an appointment tomorrow! Plus my mom is insisting she come with even though i am 21. She thinks i'm not forceful enough which is probably true. any ideas on what tests my gp should do?
  3. if you are reading a discussion and want to pm someone you can click on the PM thing below their name.
  4. healthy choice seems to have a few that are ok. vegetable beef and chicken and white rice. looked ok to me but check the ingredients yourself just to be sure. I have heard that there are a few progresso ones too but i have no idea which ones they are.
  5. Donna: both my mom and I were both suprised that they didn't do a stool test especially since my mom specifically asked them about parasites. The main reason we were worried about this is because all of my symptoms seemed to get bad after spending the summer with my boyfriend at his mom's house. The reason that being at her house made us think of this...
  6. the thing is that i barely eat potatoes or rice (in any form). Maybe once a week if that before tonight it had been almost 2 weeks since i had ate either of these. I think i am going to make a doctors appt. with my gp for later this week. and make her at least to a stool sample test for whatever can be tested that way since they have never done that which...
  7. I'm sorry that your day was so bad. I to have been having a lot of those lately. Just remember tomorrow is abother day! And if today was horrible most likely tomorrow will be better. just curious where do you go to school that you don't go until the afternoon? Linds
  8. GERRRRR i am so frustrated so i feel like total crap again. Worse since i ate dinner and there was no gluten in it i am positive. I made soup. tinkyada, potatoes, celery, onion, carrots, turkey, and homemade turkey stock. This is driving me nuts!!!
  9. Family health is good. My mom and everyone on her side of the family has severe joint pain even all of my cousins which is why me having it has never really been that big of a suprise. otherwise my mom is in very good health. she just had her gall bladder removed this past september and the funny thing was that the doctors found it but she had never had any...
  10. I have not been tested by enterolab yet. I am thinking about it but was wondering a few things about them. Like if my results did come back negative does that mean that i don't have it or could i still have it? no i haven't eliminated sugar that would be even harder than eliminating gluten. I am a big sugar junkie!!
  11. Yea they don't take it that seriously in my town but i was tested by a doctor in a larger city a few hours away. They had sent me to see a specialist becuase of my joint pain and lyme was the first thing they tested me for there where they never considered it at all in my own town. So i am guessing that they took it more seriously there.
  12. rinne: I am not sure which lab did my lyme test. It was quite some time ago. I had it done because I was having joint pain. I live in rural northern minnesota and have at least 10 usually more tick bites a year its a hazzard of loving the outdoors in the north. as for dairy. I don't use butter just margarine. and i don't really like the tast of cheese...
  13. I have been tested for lyme disease. It was a long time ago but it was one of the first things they tested me for when I started having bad joint pain. I am not really eating dairy. I don't like milk haven't drank it since my mom stopped forcing it on me. It never made me feel bad i just really don't like the taste of it. I eat the occassional yogurt...
  14. I haven't had any scopes done. I am absolutely terrified of doctors which is making this all that much harder! I have had my gall bladder checked a few different times. The first time when I first started getting sick and then they just did it again this fall because my mom actually needed to have hers taken out in september. I swear the doctors are idiots...
  15. Sorry this is long but carla refferred me. This is my problem I would love any advice anyone has!!! I never had any stomach issues until about a year and a half ago. My family refers to me as having a stomach of steal (even when I get the flu I don't actually throw up). this is except for a short period of time in 6th grade when I had stomach aches (but...
  16. i forgot to mention i also have a fast heart rate all of the time. Resting it is between 120 and 140 beats per minute. I did the 24 hour heart monitor test and it peaked at 184 while i was laying on the couch watching tv. I have been to so many doctors i feel like they can't help I have been to 2 gi's a cardiologist and a few different gp's. I live in...
  17. I never had any stomach issues until about a year and a half ago. My family refers to me as having a stomach of steal (even when I get the flu I don't actually throw up). this is except for a short period of time in 6th grade when I had stomach aches (but nothing more) for a few months and then they just disappeared. Then about 1.5-2 years ago I noticed and...
  18. I am hoping I can talk my mom into letting me do this test. i know she will do anything to make me feel better and I need it because i just keep getting more and more stressed out and that makes me feel even worse and it is causing major strain on my social life and also in my relationship with my boyfried. I cry myself to sleep everynight just wishing that...
  19. ok so i was just wondering a few things about enterolab. which test should i do. I can't afford to do both the stool antibody test and the gene panel. if I have to choose one which one do you recommend i do? On their website, they said that the stool one would be the better of the two. Is this still true even after I have been gluten free for almost 2 months...

  21. I also love watching the deer in my backyard. right now we have about 10 of them a night that come to the feeder. this past spring we even had a baby sucking milk from its mom. but then again i also like to go hunt for them. but deer are wonderfully beautiful animals.
  22. I had a wonderful thanksgiving meal! We had turrkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, glazed sweet potatoes, corn, and cranberry sauce. Also, everyone but me had dressing. But I have never liked dressing so it was ok. And my mom was so thoughtful she didn't make rolls for anyone because she knows that is my favorite part of the meal. My mom did all the cooking...
  23. Just wandering who is all from Minnesota. I live in northern MN in a small town and feel like no one arround is like me. Hope to hear from all you minnesotans!!
  24. i just bought a jennie-o yesterday for thanks giving! I am so excited because this is a holiday that I can eat everything unlike christmas where there are cookies. but i only get to eat everything cuz i am picky and only like turkey and potatoes with gravy
  25. my nutritionist directed me to celiac.com and told me that I could finda message board there that would be a great deal of help.
