  1. I went looking at 5-HTP. It is contra-indicated for people with rheumatoid arthritis, severe allergies, and liver problems. I guess that means I shouldn't take it, huh? Those are just a few of the contras I found for it. I am open for advice on it!
  2. I'll use it if it's made in the same plant. If I have a reaction, though, I will not eat it again.
  3. Mine is moderately high. My celiac symptoms are mainly atypical, though. My body is just weird for almost everything!
  4. I use ground flax.
  5. Tiffany, I love your new avatar! The bright colors attract attention! <-----This is me, by the way! Jnkmnky, keep trying! This thread is an excellent place to work it out!
  6. Wait a few days to try again, Tiffany. I have been having problems with changing avatars for a while now, so I pm,d Scott about it. He is going to look into it and see if there is a problem with the site. It won't even show the base gallery.
  7. Ok, I have tried and tried to change my avatar, with no success. I do not want to post my picture on another website just to use it for my avatar here. I tried to change my avatar to something from the "base gallery", but there is no gallery to choose from! AAARRRGGGHHH!!!
  8. Basic rules or not, it happens all the time around here. The turnover of help is so high, that I am not sure they actually take the time to train the cooks completely. I will just not eat the fries!
  9. WooHoo, Thank you for this list! I often buy Delimex taquitos for my family, now I know that I can have them, too!
  10. A thank you post on a thread is a wonderful thing. It lets the responder know that you saw their answer to you, and also lets people know that you appreciated their time and effort. I think it is proper and mannerly to say thank you!
  11. My birthday is next month, I think I'll tell my husband I want one of the cheaper ones for my gift!
  12. It's always good to know how our board works. Thanks, celiac3270!
  13. Thank you, Donna, for all of those wonderful answers, and the links!
  14. I make my own fries at home. The McDonalds in my area cook everything in the deep fryer, so it is all contaminated.
  15. OK, I google home flour mills, and got a website that has pictures. One of the mills, which retails for $40, is also a coffee grinder. I bought a coffee grinder at Wal Mart for $13, and use it to grind my flax seeds. Can I also use it to grind my bean flours? It only does a small amount at a time, but I only use a small amount at a time! Could we also...
  16. I will post again on this thread to keep it at the front of the recent posts list! If anyone out there knows the answers, please tell us!
  17. OK, maybe I spent too many years working in a fabric/crafts store, or maybe too many years too poor to buy fancy-sloganned shirts! What is stopping any of us from buying plain tshirts and sweats, and using fabric paints and stencils to put our own celiac designs on them? Nothing that is copyrighted, of course, but original art!
  18. None of my kids have been diagnosed, my dad has no gi problems whatsoever (and absolutely no sign of celiac! ), but both of my sisters have manymanymany of the symptoms! Neither one will get tested because they do not have constant diarrhea or weight loss. I was just talking to my younger sister yesterday about it, she kept saying she has none of the symptoms...
  19. I am 40, and overweight, and was diagnosed last year with celiac. I have since learned that only about half of the people with celiac have the scrawniness and diarhea, the rest are overweight. It just depends on how your body chooses to react to the haywire immune responses. Mine reacts by storing fat. My damage was minimal, so perhaps if it had gotten...
  20. "Unleavened" means no yeast or baking powder, nothing to make it light and fluffy. Leavening is not in regards to what grain is used for flour. I do not believe that God wants me to make myself ill. I believe that the purpose of the Lord's Supper (communion) is to actually sit still and remember the sacrifice that Christ made for my soul. The bread and...
  21. Kingsford has wheat? Here I have been eating bbq every weekend, without a single thought! I had no symptoms, either. My husband uses foil all the time on the grill, though, so it probably protected me. For once, one of his paranoias turned out to be something good!!
  22. I am reading this thread with much interest. Exactly what is a mill, is it small enough for a small kitchen? I don't mind milling my own flours at all, I just need to know how to do it.
  23. I could eat a T-bone! Just being able to eat out is nice!
  24. I have them all the time. Bloodwork shows that my hormone levels are changing with perimenopause, so that is what causes mine.
  25. I didn't take Effexor, I took Lexapro. I was given 10 mg a day, but it made me sleep all the time, so I cut it to 5. It worked so wonderful! I don't take it now, I have no insurance, nor do I have $74 a month for it. I have scraped the budget to the barest I can, and there just is no more. My kitties and dog do help me, they are fun to play with, which...
