  1. Is it a stomach or GI tumor? It is possible, as the tumor is sometimes a result of damage to DNA after birth. http://www.cancer.org/Cancer/GastrointestinalCarcinoidTumor/DetailedGuide/gastrointestinal-carcinoid-tumors-risk-factors
  2. My son is strongly casein-intolerant (and likely celiac, though undiagnosed) and I was undiagnosed celiac when pregnant. He was always fussy as a baby and never felt "well" as a child, but we didn't isolate his reaction to cow's milk protein until he was 15. I'm glad you're interested in that type of research - very helpful. I'm trying to get my son...
  3. Hi, I just read your post about your wonderful recovery after going gluten-free...(no pain, etc) It's very encouraging! THANKS for sharing it. (I had the early menopause thing too, four miscarriages..among a million other symptoms:<(...) but I am hopeful now that I am gluten-free! :>) things are starting to improve.

    So, thanks!

  4. I know that there are some teas that have gluten, especially Japanese teas that have barley in them. Some herbal teas may too. I don't know about Earl Grey, except that I haven't had any in 20 years because it made me sick (pre-diagnosis). I do always ask to see the label in a coffee shop, and usually check the brands out before I go (for example I think...
  5. Add me to the list. Mine are always spiders and/or webs. I haven't had one in a while so maybe they were related to gluten. I always thought it was part of my other sleep habits, like talking in my sleep and not remembering later or getting up, walking across the room and turning off the alarm and not remembering later.
  6. I think the most recent statistics are that 40% (including me) were overweight at the time of diagnosis. I am (too) close to being obese...scary. I think my body still thinks it's starving. My nutritionist told me at diagnosis that my body thought it was starving so it held on to every last calorie and it lowered my metabolism so I wouldn't burn more calories...
  7. Give it more time. I used to have this all over but noticed last summer after a year gluten-free that it was gone. I hope it clears up for you...maybe next summer you'll be wearing shorts and short skirts!
  8. Ellen, I'm not sure that there is a gene for MM. If there is research or if you've read about it please post the info. The last I read stated that scientists think that some but not all MM is genetic but I was not aware that they've found the gene as they have in celiac. I would say, yes, have your blood screened for MGUS but only if you don't want...
  9. Robie, I'm sorry about your dad's diagnosis. Feel free to PM me if you have questions. Read my signature for my story. I just found this connection a couple weeks ago. I believe that there is a connection: However MM and celiac are each not very common (and together are very rare) so it's unlikely you'll find a medical test study or research to 1...
  10. I am another Laura

  11. Nickel in foods? Michelle, if you could post your list I'd be very grateful. Thanks in advance.... Nevermind, I used the wonders of Google to get a list. Thanks for pointing it out though, I never would have thought....
  12. I have to put medical-grade tape over the snap on my jeans. I can wear stainless steel wire earrings (the dangly kind) but not posts. Raven, do you think your sensitivitity has decreased since you went gluten free? Is there a connection?
  13. Michelle, what is EDS? Are chromium and cobalt in many foods/beverages? I think that chromium is in vitamins, right? I read recently that people who are allergic to nickel shouldn't wear mineral-based makeup, so I've eliminated that. The article (sorry, can't remember where I read it) said that continuing to wear mineral makeup could make people...
  14. I know Sunnydyrain has this too. But I never connected it with celiac or even thought that it could be connected. Anyone else with a nickel allergy?
