  1. I find that while young children learn their allergies quickly, they may not always know what foods in the house contain them. Especially your 2 yo would be at risk to grab foods & stick them in her mouth, even crumbs dropped on the floor. I know the 2 yo in my house does. When my oldest son was little I eliminated all blueberries and red #3 & #3...
  2. Hi ladies, Long time no see. WARNING: I got a virus through a pop-up on this site. (I normally don't get pop-ups) It offered 3 free gluten-free books for filling out a survey. I thought it was part of the site (which i trust) so I opened it & downloaded the trojan virus. It hijacks your operating system & makes your computer useless due...
  3. How do you get on a friend list or put someone on? I couldn't figure it out!?

  4. I was diagnosed w/ idiopathic epilepsy 20 yrs ago (in college). Though by history we can document seizures in elementary school. I had mixed type seizures (mostly tempral lobe, but have had "grand mal" seizures too). I was on multiple meds & still had some seizures. When I went low gluten (only the hidden trace sources) I stopped having seizures. I am...
  5. Saw the first post & immediately thought thyroid storm. The nurse in me was ready to give info about it, but as I continued to read, it looks like you already have good info. So I did what I actually do best - PRAY. I will continue to pray for you & for the guidance of your caregivers. God Bless,
  6. We use Trix, Cocoa Pebbles, Fruity Pebbles, Dora cinnamon stars & Little Einstein fruity stars all without any problems. The only specialty gluten-free cereals we like are Panda Puffs (Peanut Butter) & Honey Rice Puffins. Buckwheat flakes taste great (maple taste) but are very hard. Good Luck,
  7. Gotta do this quick pop ups are messing w/ my computer. Today I had: Breakfast: Cocoa Puffs w/ fat free milk Snack: Fruit snacks Lunch: a bit of ham & 2 eggs (deviled) Dinner: salad w/Hormel crumbled bacon, Italian cheese, raisins, Hidden Valley Ranch dressing, freeze dried peas & corn. 3 Glutino breadsticks Snack: Welch...
  8. I felt better almost immediately & felt significant improvement in 2 wks. I havn't felt this good in 20 yrs. If you read info in my signature, it goes into more detail. I actually have energy now & feel up to doing things like walking to do my shopping, gardening & trimming trees. I had been spending about 3-6 mos/yr unable to get out of my...
  9. Cathy, You had to get it from somewhere & it sounds like your mum is a likely candidate. Hang in there. I finally convinced my parents they needed to be tested & their doc says they don't if they are not symptomatic. My daughter, however, got her labs drawn (no report yet). I had a good Easter. My best freind is getting really good at the gluten...
  10. Diane, God controls the weather, not me. We are not set up for that kind of weather in this part of the country. The beds stayed warm, w/ electric matress pad & plenty of blankets, just not the rooms. As a single, disabled mom we live in the best house I can afford. By God's grace & help from loving friends & family we are not living on the streets...
  11. Jess, Hang in there. You have to start by healing your gut. You can't gain if you can't absorb it. You should be pretty well healed by now, if you have managed to stay gluten-free. Next nutrients: Here a balanced diet will help you. Be sure you get foods from all groups. You may also want to add a gluten-free multivitamin. Nut butters are high calorie...
  12. I was misdiagnosed at the time of my pregnancies. I wish I had known & maybe it would have saved the 3 miscarriages. I had 2 in first trimester, then almost miscarried my daughter at same point in pregnancy. I was on bedrest for a while, then rest of pregnancy was pretty uneventful (until delivery, but this is unrelated to celiac disease). This is my...
  13. Pemmy, Welcome. Glad to have you join us. In some ways being gluten-free has helped me w/ my diet. When I am out to eat or at pot luck dinners, the deserts (that always would have been my downfall), are glutenous & therefore no longer a temptation. It is just not worth the 2 weeks of pain & misery. At home where I keep safe items it is another story...
  14. Diane & Liz, I am glad you are still here. Warm weather must be drawing our other ladies out in the sun for vit D therapy. I am extremely fair skinned (redhead) & burn after about 15 min in the sun. AC controls are broken on my van so driving w/window down is giving me a lot of sun right now. I will have to be careful about it though. It would...
