  1. Thanks! What kind of frozen meals do you buy? We don’t have a huge selection of gluten free where I live. I love meats and cheese, will have to look into the paleo diet. I’m not familiar. That’s where I get stuck with meat bc I have to cook it somehow. yes I used to have eggs on hand but I get burnt out and sometimes my belly doesn’t like eggs 🤷🏼‍♀️Bu...
  2. I never thought about cross contamination and I didn’t realize caramel syrups could contain gluten ??
  3. I love love Frappuccino and blended coffee drinks. At a local coffee shop I get one that has espresso, whipped cream, caramel, white and milk chocolate. Sadly The last few times I have had it I have had horrible tummy trouble and been extremely nauseous. Is there something idk about here with Frappuccino drinks? Can I not have these anymore??
  4. Thanks, just curious have you tried them?
  5. I just don't know how much longer I can do this. I am really really struggling with foods. I’ve been really trying to stick to the gluten free diet all the time… I’ve only messed up a couple times, which is a huge improvement for me. I have insulin resistance and have issues with my blood sugar bouncing around. Since going gluten free my A1C jumped up ju...
  6. Yea I’ve given up on biscuits
  7. Thank you!!! This is the most helpful straightforward information that I needed to read. I'm tired of getting the run around with doctors. I believe I was misdiagnosed 6 years ago but getting anyone to help me has been a joke!! I've had to research and doctor myself somewhat. I asked for the labs again and the doc didn't even want to order them , thankfully...
  8. Thank you!! I recently had a holter monitor and had a horrible reaction to the sticky electrodes
  9. Everything was negative except for my Ttg-IGA which is a weak positive. I should mention I have not been eating gluten
  10. Are there certain blood tests that have to be elevated or positive in order to have celiac? Can you have one antibody test that’s positive and everything else be negative and still be celiac? I’m very frustrated with my doc right now and trying to figure things out for myself.
  11. Oh there’s like nothing where I live either. I’ve had to adjust so much stuff in my life- my house is small and I don’t have the extra storage for bulk items. And I’m a single Mom with one income and a special needs kid with a special diet. So financially it’s an issue too. That would be nice…. People don’t even understand my need to eat gluten free lol
  12. Yes I have tried those. I don’t care for the entertainment crackers other than to bake with … they taste weird to me idk why. The table crackers I use for tuna and soup but they crumble so not good for much else lol. Ordering gets expensive and it’s almost always in bulk 🤦🏼‍♀️
  13. I will try these … if I can find them online. We have nothing around here
  14. I looked and couldn’t find it
  15. I am seeing that as I go along … some things like crackers don’t seem to ever be in my future again
  16. You said you went to the ER? Any specific reason? I had another episode yesterday and ended up in the ER myself. I’m scared to death now that it’s going to happen again. It’s like the anxiety feeds the SVT. And yes I must admit I have fallen again recently and had actually eaten gluten yesterday. My heart rate was super high and had palpitations. All my te...
  17. I have been doing extremely well sticking to the gluten free diet. However this last week I have had gluten, not a huge amount but still gluten. I have always had bad “allergies”. No immediate allergic reaction to consuming gluten/wheat. Since consuming the gluten I have had a tickle in my throat and a cough that won’t go away. Could this be an increased hista...
  18. Yeah the itch is terrible. It’s like Scratch and scratch to get temporary relief but it makes it worse for sure. My foot looks terrible right now
  19. Oh yeah I definitely get the bloated pregnant looking swollen belly. I haven’t found much that helps at this point
  20. They weren’t as good, but I wondered if I over baked them. It’s hard to tell especially with gluten free but if you overcook anything gluten-free it’s just yucky lol how long do you bake yours? I will try the foil too. Is there a flavor of cookies that you prefer?
  21. I’m convinced the rash I’m dealing with off and on is DH. My question is can it be worsened by elastic or friction, heat, etc? It seems the elastic in my no show socks makes it worse as well as my underwear line or places that rub frequently or get hotter like my thighs, around my underwear line and even sometimes around other private areas. I do a lot of ...
  22. After going gluten free, can consuming gluten cause swelling/fluid retention throughout the body?
  23. I have eaten Sweet Loren’s cookies before and they were good. I got a package here lately and the cookies were terrible once I baked them. Anyone else have this issue? I want to try them again but not sure if I am doing something wrong
