  1. So Canola oil is not made from rapeseed? Did that change? The article said Buckwheat, Amaranth, Quinoa, and Rape are VERY DISTANT from gluten - that didn't change either. I just said I had a gluten-type reaction to it. But I don't know what is going on in my body. The article wasn't confirming a reaction - I just put it in to show that it wasn't a...
  2. Pumpkin Bread (I just found a pumpkin that wasn't carved) Maybe you were looking for sandwich bread but I just made this last night... And look at this nutrition! Pumpkin Nutrition Facts (2 cups cooked, boiled, drained, without salt) Calories 98 Protein 4 grams Carbohydrate 24 grams Dietary Fiber 6 grams Calcium 74 mg Iron 2.8 mg Magnesium...
  3. Oh, another thing about strep. There are about 23 strains. My immunologist ran an IgG panel and I have had hundreds of infections including strep, and I had NO antibodies to any of the strains. Is this immune deficiency common in Celiacs? I was able to mount some anti-bodies after a Pneumo Vax 23 Valent. Lots of people can't mount these anti...
  4. Wild Garden just came out with travel tubes of hummus - good hummus! Awesome to squeeze some on Mary's Gone crackers. No need to refrigerate.
  5. Hi I believe that I may have Celiac Sprue. I think that my husband has it worse. How did we find each other and what will it do to our kids?!? My husband's symptoms: IBS - constipation, D, painful gas actual wheat allergy - so he takes Claritin(?) heart pain of unknown origin rosacia high cholesterol arthritis MY REAL QUESTION...
  6. Here is what I posted under Recurrent Yeast Infections... See red for a big surprise!! Hi I am going to go do this flush right now and stick to it. Try it: Open Original Shared Link I like this flush because you don't have to buy anything except for some acidolphilus. AND it is supposed to help you not have the bad reactions to removing candida...
  7. Hi I am going to go do this flush right now and stick to it. Try it: Open Original Shared Link I like this flush because you don't have to buy anything except for some acidolphilus. AND it is supposed to help you not have the bad reactions to removing candida. My problem is that I think I have Candida/Aspergillis in my head - I don't know if...
  8. I have three children. I have had multiple pregnancy losses though. Didn't know if I was Celiac - but now I think I was. When you get pregnant, have them test your progesterone levels if they haven't. I am thinking that Celiacs don't make much, related to thyroid function somehow. I had to take it around the clock during the first tri-mester to keep...
  9. Maybe others responded with this already but photosensitivity in autoimmune disorders is a major symptom of LUPUS. Check ANAs. And see if she meets at least 4 of these criteria: Open Original Shared Link Just another thing they looked at me for.
  10. I had a gluten-type reaction to Canola Oil, this is what I found earlier this week: "...all known grain species that cause problems for celiac patients are members of the grass family. In plant taxonomy, the grass family belongs to the Plant Kingdom Subclass known as monocotyledonous plants (monocots). The only other grouping at the Subclass level is that...
  11. HI I am a MSW with special interest in Autism. Don't Forget PANDAS! Autoimmune induced psychiatric disorders. In PANDAS they discuss how strep kicks off OCD and Tourettes. I personally think OCD and Autism are integrated. Open Original Shared Link
  12. You are correct the ANA's come to eat dead cells - and I have a lot of cell-death from recent surgery. However, if your ANA is high - it generally means they are eating live cells, hence the joint pain associated with RA or Lupus. My ANA's are going crazy. Celiac Sprue, from what I understand is also an autoimmune disorder, means you aren't just tring...
  13. I was wondering if people could list their non-food sensitivities -so we could see some commonalities. Me Anaphylaxis (hives, swelling, and/or breathing trouble): Latex Levaquin Welbutrin after 3 weeks (doctor wouldn't believe me, gave me medrol shots etc., finally took myself off and knew what to do next time with Cymbalta - I had terrible hives...
  14. Untreated strep can exacerbate or create OCD symptoms. Your body tries to fight it off and instead attacks part of your brain creating Obsessive Compulsive Disorder - there is more and more research on this in children but less for adults but it happens. It also can cause Tourettes. Here is the first thing I grabbed off the internet, and article from...
  15. From my experience, I would not suggest that surgery. Just have it pulled. If it is cracked, it will always allow bacteria in no matter what they do to it. My grandfather lost all teeth before age 40. I plan on having implants - they don't crack and allow bacteria in. My dentist is awesome. He looks at me like I am outside the norm but accepts that...
  16. Took myself to an ENT for chronic sinus infections after being on 5 anti-biotics this time. ENT found my right Spenoid Sinus to be filled with things that needed to be removed. ENT sent me to allergist to find out why I am having sinus problems. ENT performed R. Sphenoid/ethmoidectomy but refused to culture what was in the sinus - even when I begged...
  17. Why exactly would that work?
  18. My teeth are all cracking out of my head. First they root canal them 3 times and then decide they are cracked and infected. Then they pull it then they put bridge around it. Then the next tooth goes bad and they have to cut off the bridge. Jaw/tooth pain is worse than labor. I don't eat beef or pork, but I have a cow bone in my jaw from when they reconstructed...
  19. I have most of these same symptoms. Gluten-free seems to help but not completely. How do you know if your symptoms are from Systemic Candida or from Celiac Sprue? What does a high ANA (anti-nuclear antibodies...means my cells eating my cells) mean for either? Mine is 1:640 Anyone know? Help!
  20. Hi there. I am not quite diagnosed yet. I had sinus surgery on Oct 11, 2006. Ever since then anytime I eat wheat or sugar (I think), I spike a fever, have joint pain, my face swells, turns red, iritability/mood swing hits, and I have severe pain in my spenoid sinuses and skull base (seems to be in my brain - cerebellum area). I also have breast...
