ARCHIVED Anyone From Tours, France?
sherylj replied to sherylj's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
hey,,I'm talking to myself!!!!!!! ha,,,nothing new. I didn't even need to ask the question,,my daughter is dealing with this just great. She made up a small card detailing her allergies, including the celiac. I guess I should give her more credit. I was not sure she would take the diagnosis seriously but she is already researching and becoming more... -

ARCHIVED Hillshire Farms Oven Rosted Turkey Deli Meat?
sherylj replied to janelyb's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I agree it isn't worth the risk,,,modified food starch could be wheat. I wouldn' even for sure trust any response I got from a customer service representative. There are brands of deli meats that are okay. Just read the labels every time. -
ARCHIVED False Negative Biopsy?
sherylj replied to JamiD's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
. As I see it you could go back on gluten and ask for another test. Emphasize your dr. didn't give you correct instructions if there is an insurance issue. Or just go with your instincts and stay gluten free. I am new and can't even tell you my IgA, IgG, so I still have to educate myself. During my biopsy the dr. told my husband he didn... -

This site is a great resource: Just don't make the mistake I did (at Panera Bread). At the end of the lengthly list of ingredients there is a list of "allergens". Look closely, example in the sides look at poultry gravy. The last list of "allergens" doesn't list wheat but if you read the INGREDIENTS. you see MODIFIED FOOD STARCH. Whoever analyzes their...

ARCHIVED Weird Stomach Discomfort Question
sherylj replied to GraceE's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My main symptoms were gas, bloating and awful burning sensation in upper left abd. right under my ribcage which I thought was reflux for years (it has disappeared since I went gluten-free). I had nausea that came more and more frequently then the vomiting started and increased. Most of my symptoms were not "classic". I would encourage you check out th... -

ARCHIVED Post Diagnosis, Depression
sherylj replied to sherylj's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I have not been very successful at quitting the caffiene. I can do a few days and then something trips me up. I don't think I have seen a direct link between caffiene and my energy/mood. My mood seems to swing around my emotions, which are all over the map . Still giving up the cola each day would definitley be a good thing for my weight. ... -

ARCHIVED So Jerry Is Very Frustrated....
sherylj replied to JerryK's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
[ I know you guys are getting tired of hearing this, and I'm getting tired of saying it, but not being diagnosed as Celiac gives me "permission" in my mind to eat a few cookies if I feel like it and feel like paying the price. Not only is this true for me, but my wife also. So what does she do? She fills up the house with tempting treats like chocolate... -
