    Although you might not realize it flour poofs up in the air & gets on everything & it also gets in the AC/heating ducts... Some of us get sick just walking in a bakery... or the worst the flour aisle at the grocery after someone has just stocked the flour bags or is stocking them at that moment or horrors one has broken & there is flour everywhere

    You might want to get her a small college room size refrigerator. With three boys in the house it is going to be hard for her to even walk in your kitchen much less touch anything in there. Also please remember that if you cook with wheat flour or wheat cake mixes in the house that she will get sick. Will her mother be able to send some money for any...

    Why are you not eating meat? I also agree with Ursa. some of us cannot even tolerate rice - especially on a regular basis. If you will stay off the dairy & cut out the grains & eat more meat - I eat pork, chicken, turkey, fish, shrimp, crab - I am allergic to beef - a couple of your other food intolerances might get better, like corn & more...

    Eliana, take a clue from your little girl & do not give her milk or soy in those bottles - try some almond milk or some coconut milk or juice - & yes pedialite is good too I know it is difficult for you moms to think that your babies can live without milk or soy - but for some (most IMO) kids it is doing a lot of damage...

    my grand-daughter who is 10 YO just gained a bunch of weight & lost ALL the enamel on ALL her teeth. She is NOT gluten-free, she has two DQ1 genes - as do most of the people in my family - including me. gluten intolerant is very serious business. Celiac will get the GI stuff first - but gluten intolerant can attack a lot of other areas before you...

    there should be a ROCK (raising our celiac kids) in your area & the Dallas celiac group is an active group - well all I know is that they do a fabulous job of researching restaurants!!! Thank you Dallas group!! Open Original Shared Link here is a link

    Hello & welcome, just some guesses here but for joint pain I would look at giving up all dairy & all soy. usually joint pain is caused from some food that you are eating... the nightshade family of potato, tomato, peppers, eggplant should be checked out.. some people have a problem with corn - IMO that is the worst, I went years & could...

    My guess is that you need to be dairy free at the least for awhile. next what kind of gluten-free flour was in the muffins? Did the muffins also contain milk or other dairy? You could also be reacting to one of the gluten-free flours. I have been gluten-free 4 years & hardly ever eat any of the gluten-free flour... Some people handle it with no...

    You might try keeping a food journal - it could be from another food you are eating - or drinking - also have you checked your personal care products? I would insist on at least a bone scan & a brain scan - does not hurt to check out the brain with a situation like that - just to check. I also agree with Ursa - check your vitamin & mineral levels...

    You might want to experiment with the cornbread - you can make it a lot of ways & you can even make little fried skillet bread - is what my grandmother used to call them. You do not have to use any other flours in cornbread - just corn meal. i use cornmeal & coconut milk in place of milk & I do put in an extra egg - but you could just use your...

    Hello & welcome - I have no specific advice for your conditions - except to give you my standard broad suggestions, which would include. get all your mineral & vitamin levels checked, take B12 regardless of the outcome of that one eat whole foods plainly prepared - to try to sniff out any other intolerances try to go as grain free as you...

    I have used enterolab.com & highly recommend them - especially if you get a negative blood test. A lot of us do not have a positive blood test. Although some people on this forum do not like Enterolab because he "is not published" in fact, some medical doctors do use Dr Fine's lab. Some doctors that are just trying to help their patients and are...

    You could ask the doctor that cannot see you for three months to refer you to someone that can see you right away, if that does not work, then ask to talk to the physician's assistant - sometimes they will get you in when the scheduling person will not. I would not accept the three month wait period - keep looking...

    I second the recommendation for no nightshade veggies. I can eat tomatoes but absolutely cannot eat white potatoes or black pepper or chili powder or eggplant & I have mostly given up bell peppers. I also am allergic to beef - even the organic stuff. I also have some other allergies... I am mostly grain free - except for the occasional weekend...

    In addition to the above post you might want to try no grains for awhile. if he is not taking B12 he should be...

    Hi Minnie82 & welcome - you HAVE a diagnosis it came from the truest test of them all - dietary response. If you go back to eating gluten I will tell you that some people get very ill & cannot do it - & you face the possibility of picking up another auto immune illness at that time. Since you have figured out your problem why go back to the...

    It sound like your son could be gluten intolerant, those genes come with a lot of other food allergies and neurological issues. Usually when you go gluten-free/DF your other food allergies get better & you are able to eat some of those foods again. Of course if you have an anaphylactic reaction to a food you probably will never be able to eat that food...

    CAUTION: ONLY hormel chili WITH BEANS is gluten free also - the same old thing - read the label...

    Hi Missouri Farmer, I do not know about any energy elixirs but you might try taking some B12, gluten free of course. also you might look at your diet & make sure that you are getting plenty of protein. I would skip all the gluten free manufactured stuff, no soy & no dairy, no artificial sugars also if you could force yourself to get some...

    Since I cannot say anything nice about "Toddler Diarrhea" or "IBS" I will just say - yes to what Ursa said. my usual saying is that there is also no such disease called vomiting. I will say welcome & good for you for checking out the gluten intolerance/celiac problem that obviously your husband & son have. & I hope that you get both of...

    Welcome & {{{{{{{Hugs}}}}}} since you do not have any symptoms please do not eat oats. even if they are not cross contaminated some of us can be damaged by oats...

    oh have a good time & do not be nervous! & yes take the chance to say that you are shy or not sure what to do - if someone chats with you, tell them thank you & that you are a little on the shy side & trying not to be too nervous. If that is a kind chatty person they will "take you under their wing". interesting about you being shy, I...

    I second the opinon re feeling better - that was probably the first time that she had ever felt like being at recess - instead of sitting at her desk!!!! You might talk to her about how she is feeling, she might not be aware of it on a conscious level. You might also need to explain that she should feel happy & bubbly & have lots of energy all...

    I just do not know, but I do know that some inks are soy based. If you would google some of the name brand ink pad companies, you could find out. Some of the brands I use are dee Gruenig, Stampin Up, Color Box, Versa Color... but I do not know if any of them contain wheat or gluten. When you find out what brand you want you can find a lot of them at Hobby...
