    I know what you mean ! I buy the Moore's wholemeal bread now my local Woollies has it. Toasted it really isn't too bad Have never been a real cereal type except for oats. I'll probably buy a packet this week as am off on Thursday to Mt Gambier for a 4-day conference . Most of the meals are included and I'll probably have it for breakfast. I do use...

    Hi Amber yes I did one of the most amazing experiences of my life I found when I cut out glucose syrup that my energy levels soared and the lingering brain fog went. I also have Hashimoto's Disease , another auto-immune disease that kills the thyroid gland and can produce the same symptoms, fatigue/brain fog I am wondering if it is because...

    Absolutely!! A diagnosis of "IBS" kept me sick for 47 years (yes you read right) until last September when I had to have an endoscopy/colonoscopy after a bowel screening showed blood in both upper and lower GI tracts ........ In all those years I was NEVER offered any testing of any kind just told I had "IBS", problems from the age of 12, "eczema" at...

    You'll need to read the labels, a lot of them contain glucose syrup made from wheat. The Coeliac Society will tell you it's safe as it's so highly processed there is no detectable gluten, however it made an enormous difference to me when I trialled cutting it out I found Toppa in Woollies the other day, has "available at Woolworths or Safeway only" stamped...

    Welcome ! When I went shopping yesterday I had to hurry past the biscuit aisle when I saw all the varieties of Tim Tams that have come out since I went gluten-free Didn't mean to look it was accidental

    I have had the SillyYaks meat pie and it was great! Wasn't too impressed with the apple pie though

    I don't cheat, simple as that it isn't worth it

    Yes me! I have just turned 60, read my signature line for my 47 years of mis-diagnosis...................and I am a confirmed Coeliac as of last September via endoscopy and positive antibodies I am beginning to feel wonderful! I have been ruthless and cut out even glucose syrup from wheat (deemed "safe " by Coeliac Australia............2 parts per million...

    What you are describing are also hypo symptoms (I have Hashimoto's Disease) i'd be interested to see your latest labs for TSH, FREE T3 and FREE T4

    Here in South Australia people with auto-immune disease are unable to give blood. I haven't given blood since I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease in November 1994 and should probably never have given it as I am sure I have had Coeliac Disease since I was 12, undiagnosed until 4 months ago

    Welcome! I was diagnosed about 3 months ago , and believe I was undiagnosed for 47 years. How much misery I could have saved myself if I knew about Coeliac Disease and insist my docs do more than just telling me I had "IBS" and there was nothing they could do. Finally had an endoscopy/colonoscopy because I was iron deficient and a bowel screening showed...

    I am some-one that went 47 years without a diagnosis Here in Australia glucose syrup/dextrose/maltodextrin from wheat is said to have "no detectable gluten" because of the processing renders it at 0.0002% ( 2 parts per million) and is considered "safe" by the Coeliac Society After chatting in my Aussie Coeliac Yahoogroup I decided as an experiment...

    Don't be scared honestly, it's great that she has been diagnosed so young. What it means is no more gluten food for the rest of her life. Go here to this section Open Original Shared Link It is specially for parents of babies and children diagnosed with Celiac Disease

    Yum!! That looks absolutely scrumptious!

    Have been following this thread I'm so pleased for you! Reminds me of when I went out once there was a part of the dessert I couldn't eat (the dessert was OK but there was a sauce containing gluten poured on it) and we let them know. I went to the loo and when I came back they had served the desserts and there was mine piled high with all this luscious...

    They were my exact thoughts too, a spam-and-run poster

    Welcome Mark! Glad you found us
  23. nutralady2001
    That is my thought too, you need for thyroid tests, TSH, Free T3,Free T4 anti-TPO and TgAb antibodies (both of them) also ferritin, iron ,B12,Vitamin D
