    I would suggest getting brown rice tortillas and putting whatever kind of gluten-free meat you like in it. It is easy to pack and the brown rice tortillas don't fall apart as much as the corn ones. I've had the Food for Life ones and the Trader Joes brand ones and they are both tasty.

    I was just recently at a Phillies game and enjoyed two gluten free hot dogs. It took four innings to find them but it was worth it. In fact, I gave a friend a little piece of my bun and she said mine was better than the regular dogs. They are only located at one station at section 129 with the vegan stuff. There are no signs about the gluten free buns though...

    My mom is wondering whether I should be seeing an endocrinologist. I feel fine (no problems other than reactions to gluten and soy protein) but she asked me yesterday if Celiacs go to them. As a precaution should I see an endocrinologist?

    My 21st birthday is coming up and I have been trying to find information on restaurants that would be able to serve me a safe drink. I am not into many alcohols, and I really just want something "pretty", like a margarita. I was wondering if anyone knows of a particular restaurant that would be able to serve safe margaritas. I am thinking Red Robin would...

    I am writing this for my research in communication class. Initially I was going to investigate students just on my campus, but when I found out there werent many people with allergies I decided to compare it to other colleges. Also, if it was through a university any experience is fine. Also, for people who lived on campus previously and do not anymore your...

    Hey! I am writing an investigative article for my research class on students living on campus with food allergies. Basically I want to compare different colleges dining services and how the school accommodates you. I would like know what kind of meal plan you have and how your school's dining system works, how often you use your meals on a weekly basis, how...

    Hey everyone, For the past 2-3 days I have noticed that my legs are really achy and sort of numb feeling. It feels as though I am fighting with my legs to walk further. It seems to be getting worse as the day goes on and as I walk around more. I potentially could have ingested gluten this weekend, but I stopped eating after a few bites and I never really...

    Hey, I'm at college so finding/making my own food and keeping track of everything is really hard. For the past 4 nights I have had really bad farting problems (bad enough for me to have to stay outside for close to 3 hours) and it is really driving me insane. I have had to cancel social plans and I can't even be around people. I've made a list of what...

    Just wondering if anyone knows of any "less expensive" brands of deli meat that are both gluten free and soy free. I'm at college right now and I have recently been getting sick on the turkey so the head chef called the company and found out that there was soy protein in all of their lunch meats. So now I'm out of lunch meat options and although the cafeteria...

    I know this thread sort of died out but I just came back from a great week in State College. I stayed with my roommate and her family so they cooked at home most of the time (they made excellent gluten free meals and I never got sick) but I did go out to lunch one day and I had a wonderful experience at the restaurant so I wanted to share the info with all...

    I've seen the list of safe alcohols and for the most part I drink Smirnoff vodka. But I am looking for something more transportable, something I could take with me to parties. I'm a college student who will be drinking off campus more this year and one of my friends is letting me store some alcohol in his room so when I'm at parties I have my own stuff. Unfortunately...

    I did a google search last week for gluten free tcby and I did find information on them. I believe (don't quote me on this)they said that most of their flavors do not contain gluten except for the obvious ones like cookie dough and cheesecake and that all of their sorbet flavors are gluten free. If you do a search for it, the info comes up right away.

    I also tested negative for Celiac Disease but after eating gluten free for a couple of weeks I knew that was the problem. My doctor as of now didn't even diagnose me, he said if I wanted more testing for other stomach issues I could or I could just continue eating gluten free. One of these days I will request that he officially diagnose me with gluten intolerance...

    I also had the Alice Springs Chicken and got very sick from it. I went to the Westbury, NY location. I also went there one night and I had just gotten the brownie sundae which was supposed to be gluten free. I'm not sure whether it was the brownie or the ice cream that bothered me, but I was a bit irritated then as well.

    Hey Everyone, I've been looking into Casein Intolerance and Soy Intolerance as I believe I may have them. I have some questions as I am still confused about a few things. First, how are the casein and soy intolerances diagnosed? Second, if casein is a problem would I still be able to drink skim milk? For some reason skim milk doesn't seem to bother me...

    I also get extremely bad upper stomach pain along with constant bloating. It feels like knives stabbing me. Although I do get bowel problems also, most of my pain is upper stomach related.

    Is there a difference between guar gum and xanthan gum? I made chocolate cheesecake brownies today and they are too doughy, not cakey or fudgy. The recipe said to use guar gum and I used xanthan gum because I couldn't find guar gum, so I am wondering if that would make a difference.

    Hey everyone, I'm a college student and next year my school is implementing a substance free dorm. We are required to write an essay about how our lifestyle fits into the wellness theme and I somehow want to bring up gluten intolerance. I want to mention that I am unable to drink alcohol due to this illness and do not want to even come in contact with...

    ARCHIVED Six Degrees

    But if you were just following the diet for the heck of it why would you say I'm allergic to it? I do see your point though, I didn't think of that.

    ARCHIVED Six Degrees

    es2443 posted a topic in Publications & Publicity

    Hey everyone, I was watching Six Degrees last night and all of the sudden one of the characters asks a reporter if he would like a cookie and he responded with "I'm allergic to gluten" and her response was "who isn't these days". I was like so shocked it was on there. It definititely seems like its being recognized more on tv.

    No, there were no bumps with any of her bruises.

    Hey everyone, I've posted before about my friend's swollen ankle but now the situation just got a ton worse. Her knee has still been bothering her and swollen for a few weeks now and she finally had x-rays yesterday. The doctor called her shortly after to tell her there was a growth of some sort on her femur and they thought it might be benign sclerosis...

    Her lupus treatments are going well, she is almost in remission. It just concerns me because she has had random brusing on her thighs a few weeks ago, and then she got this knee pain which suddenly went away this afternoon. She then noticed her ankle was swollen without pain. I don't know what it is, I just hope it isn't anything serious.
  24. es2443
    Hey everyone. My friend noticed tonight that her ankle is swollen but that it doesn't hurt. Her knee has been bothering her so we are thinking that fluid maybe drained from her knee to her ankle. But she also has lupus so we always think into it. She's going to go to the health center tomorrow but I'm doubtful that will help. Have any of you ever experienced...
