ARCHIVED No Gall Bladder
Robina replied to Marlene's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
You may want to have an ultrasound to ensure that you don't have any gallstones that "got away" from the surgery... a friend of mine had similar symptoms and became very ill because apparently a gall stone was lodged inside a liver duct... -
ARCHIVED Urinary Tract Infection
Robina replied to Terrilyn's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Yes I agree with using D-Mannose... it is WONDERFUL for UTI's... and it's the ONLY PROVEN alternative supplement recognized for being able to effectively treat an existing UTI... I know it helped me... -
Well... we ate at the 99 last night... supposedly gluten free stuff... and I've been up all night with an itchy scalp and skin... my hair is coming out in handfuls... I won't be eating there again...

ARCHIVED Sudden Onset Of Cold Sores/fever Blisters After Being Glutened?
Robina replied to Robina's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
thanks for the input gang... it's helped ease my mind a little -
I posted this at my other forum for NH Celiac's... but... thought it would be worthwhile to ask here since this is the place where I've always come to for advice... Anyway this has never happened to me before and I was curious if it's related to Celiac's disease and/or DH... and/or if anyone else has ever experienced it... We celebrate every Thanksgiving...

LOTS of celiac foods and products and the owners are AWESOME people... will order whatever you want if they don't already carry it... plus they do a gluten free sale day every two months... this is awesome!!! I love this forum and will always be grateful to the seasoned pros here... but it... -

ARCHIVED Arrowhead Mills Baking Mix
Robina posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Okay so I bought the Arrowhead Mills Baking Mix and decided to try out a few recipes by the Gluten Free Gourmet... I made apple cobbler... and I made a lowfat hollaindaise sauce for salmon/asparagus.... Both recipe trials came out fantastic... I served them to the whole family and no one said a word about it tasting funny or anything like that... I'm going... -
ARCHIVED Clan Thompson Gluten Free List For Pda
Robina replied to kimberleyshort's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I just bought the food and drug combo... I went for the one time download thing... bc I figure I won't need anything but annual updates thanks to this forum... so far I really like it :-) -
Ever since going gluten free... the one thing I have not been able to find a worthy replacement for is bread... I've tried so many different brands... and they all taste like drywall... IMHO... I even bought bread from th gluten free breadbasket specialty bakery... and I'd all but given up hope... but I picked up an Anna's bread mix from my local health food...

ARCHIVED Smaller Grocers As Opposed To Chain Markets
Robina posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Well... I've shopped at Wild Oats and Hannaford's for gluten-free products and could definitely find gluten-free products... but... yesterday hubby and I went to the Dover Health Food Store for a Gluten Free sale they were having (I guess they do it once every couple of months)... and it was pretty awesome... they had a whole aisle dedicated to gluten-free... -
ARCHIVED Favorite Pizza Crust
Robina replied to ebrbetty's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have found Kinnickkinick's(sp?) to be pretty good... definitely not bubbly and chewy like traditional pizza crust due to the lack of gluten... but... with the right toppings... still pretty tasty! -
ARCHIVED Cranberry Juice
Robina replied to jesscarmel's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Mountain Sun makes pure juices... cranberry, blueberry, etc... but they're so strong they definitely have to be diluted... I buy them in the Nature's Place section of Hannaford's Supermarkets.... -
ARCHIVED Response From Garnier Fructis
Robina replied to Moongirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
No... it means that if the ingredients listed on the product contain any of the ingredients in the list they provided... then that particular product is not gluten free... more or less... Now I just checked my curl cream, my volumizing spray, my quick fix hair spray and my long and strong leave in... and none of the ingredients in the list are listed on... -
ARCHIVED Overweight Before I Was Diagnosed. Has Anyone Lost Weight Since Going Gluten Free?
Robina replied to jacklyn1981's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Ehrin I provide my personal training clients with a fat burning nutritional plan (given to me by a licensed nutritionist) that seems to work very well... I live by the system myself and the fat just melts right off... of course you should have some sort of exercise program to go with it if you don't already... and I'm talking resistance as well as cardio... -
ARCHIVED Coconut Flour And Cookbook Ideal For Celiacs And Those With Food Allergies
Robina replied to Robina's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I didn't see any recipes for bread... just muffins, rolls and quickbreads... but I guess the deal w/ coconut flour is that you can use it as a regular flour substitute in all recipes that call for flour :-) -
ARCHIVED Symptoms Returning Or Worsening With Periods?
Robina posted a topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Okay I know this is a weird question... but have of the celiac females here ever experienced celiac symptoms worsening with PMS and periods? I went gluten free about two months ago... and things were going pretty well... but it seems like when I PMS... my celiac symptoms come back... like the GI upset following a glutening... and the excessive hair shedding... -
NOW foods makes a pretty inexpensive line of supplements that are allergen free... I found out by accident... I started getting a UTI but didn't want to go on antibiotics and after some googling I found out about D-Mannose powder (naturally occuring sugar in cranberries, blueberries, etc.) so I ordered NOW foods version from Lame Advertisement.com... anyway...
