ARCHIVED Ouzo?
nephlim replied to nephlim's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Heh, I've seen that, but I'm wondering if they started with grain spirits like gin or something. Ouzo is 40% ABV; a rather high alcohol content for something made from herbs and grapes alone. I've finally made it a month without getting sick, and I'd hate to celebrate only to start over. -Dan -
Hi folks. I've read that ouzo is safe, but I was wondering if anyone here has tried it without issues. God I've been CRAVING a glass of Ouzo 12 on the rocks -Dan

ARCHIVED Another Blood Test
nephlim posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I met with my algergist the other day. I had made an appointment before my blood test came back positive for the antigens; we were still figuring it out. His wife has had celiac for 30 years, and after telling him my symptoms, he was not totally convinced. 1) the first round of antigen tests was neg, the second was positive. 2)Very Atypical symptoms and neg... -
ARCHIVED Redbridge Beer
nephlim posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
AB makes a gluten free beer! Made from Sorghum. As a self-confessed beer snob, I was so excited, but so worried. I like Belgium ales, domestic microbrews, brutally hopped IPAs. What would this be like? Not bad. Not bad at all. Tastes, smells, pours like a beer. At 8.50 a six pack, about what I'd pay for something I'd usualy drink. I'm on my second six... -
ARCHIVED gluten-free But Still Getting Sick
nephlim posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hey guys. I've been gluten-free for a little over 2 months now and have been feeling better. However, twice in that time I've been sick, and I KNOW it was from gluten (same pain, etc). Is something like this normal? I figgured it was leftover, or something occult like micro amounts in chapstick and toothpaste or what have you. Whjat do you guys think? ... -
ARCHIVED Cedar's Stuffed Grape Leaves?
nephlim posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hey all. I had some trouble this weekend, and the only new food that I wasn't 100% sure of was Cedar's Stuffed Grape Leaves. The ingredients didn't list wheat, but I fogured I'd ask around. Also, I cook with an Indian spice called garam masala. Is that gluten-free? Thanks, -Dan -
ARCHIVED Hello To All/new Guy Questions
nephlim replied to nephlim's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hey there. Yes they did a biopsy, and looked for H plyori and other bacteria. All came back neg/unremarkable. Even if the gluten test comes back neg, I'll continue the gluten-free diet because if it makes me feel better, that's all that matters in the long run -
ARCHIVED Hello To All/new Guy Questions
nephlim posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hey folks. I'm male, 25 years old, and live in the US. I've had this lower GI condition since May of 06. It started with a slight cramping/nausea feeling while eating. From there, it progressed to these horrible cramping pains along my belt-line. With it came frequent and cramping BMs, and then constipation, then epic, cramping BMs. Now, I've got quite...
