ARCHIVED Supplements For Leaky Gut?
Janeti replied to IChaseFrisbees's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Hello...I would say if its a leaky gut, try Symbion for life. It is a "super probiotic". It saved me. I wasn't able to eat much. It takes time, but you'll soon notice a difference, you'll be able to tolerate more with less to little stomach upsetment. Google "Symbion for life". It has all the info you'll need. Good luck -
ARCHIVED Having Acid Problems Agian!
Janeti replied to Crystalkd's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I have an idea about the acid. The last time when I wento to see my MD, I was complaining about the pains in my stomach. I found out that the last endoscopy I had came back with "gastritis". I was furious! So I found this book called "Great taste No pain". It teaches you about foods that are acid, and foods that are alkaline. It guarantees that after... -

It will be available as of June 1, 2009. I was so excited, I just wanted to share. Janet -
ARCHIVED Why Is Endoscopy Still "the Gold Standard"?
Janeti replied to jacflash's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I agree with Gemini. I had 2 endos and was told by the GI that by law, they are only able to go 2 inches into the small intestine. I'm not sure but with 22 feet of small intestine, how accurate can that be? It was fine for me, but for for my daughter who has alot of " celiac symptoms" she is scared and does not want to go through that. She simply is... -
I know that when your body is in crisis, it needs to be supported through the tough times, and then some. I think that vitamins, minerals are important now at all times. Lovey25-I have to tell you that I am such a baby when it comes to food. I grew up in a very old world italian home. My mother never put a cold bowl of cereal down in front of me...

Msjan...Thank you for your suggestions. Yes I did try threelac. Ironically, it did seem to help at first, but then it petered out. Maybe because I had such a leaky gut. (I do believe that is better now) Also, I am not sure if there is a difference, but I cook alot with fresh garlic. I'm not sure that I can be that brave to eat it just like that lol...

Riceguy...I take daily 600mg of magnesium/potassium along with a long list of other things. Each day I eat differently because some days I react to one thing, and then the next it seems ok.(Its got me nuts) Breakfast maybe yogurt or lite toast(7gms carbs, no sugar) I can't have cereal...too many carbs, and I can't tolerate the milk. Once in a while, I...

I was on 1 week of dilucan in December, and one week in January..But since January of 07 when I was diagnosed with celiacs I believe that really was the start of it all. I was on b12 shots, and deficient in all vitamins...I didn't have the strength to get out of bed. This was followed by 3 months of antibiotics...I think that did me in. I think I have...

Lovey25, I hope you see this...I noticed that you have been fighting candida also...do you feel any better? Some days I feel strong, and others(like today) I just want to cry. Last night I had complete insomnia. I have a wonderful husband, 2 kids, a beautiful home and a great job....but I can't enjoy any of it becasue I always feel like crap. I can't...

Yes, I just came off of a week of diflucan, and now I am taking golden seal f. I also take digestive enzymes when I eat. I am noticing that for a short period after I eat, I sweat, followed by alllooootttt of gurgling in my belly. Something just isn't right?

Hello everyone...I was def glutened 2 days in a row, and I have candida issues that I try to keep under control. Does it make sense that if you are glutened that it can make the candida worse? The stomach soreness, daily headaches and over all feeling crummy is back big time. I would appreciate your opinions. Thanks

ARCHIVED Could This Be Dermatitis Herpetiformis
Janeti replied to hadabaday2day's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
As a mother of a 24 year that has been sick since the day he was born, I can say that my son has had every test that there is...and allergy testing x4. Same thing every time, no allergies. It has been a long journey, and we are now on the right path with his health. (by the way, my son was on a strictly soy formula...) After 22 years of sickness, he is... -
ARCHIVED Could This Be Dermatitis Herpetiformis
Janeti replied to hadabaday2day's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
OH. I wish that I would have seen your post when it first came out. My son had the same rashes from the day he started drinking formula...And at 5 days old, he stopped breathing, due to a reaction from the formula. I can't tell you throughout his childhood how many times I had to rush him to the pediatrician because of high fevers and rashes. (by the way... -
Two months before I was diagnosed with celiacs, I had those same kind of pains. They did the HIDA with cck, and when the cck was injected the pain and the nausea was intolerable. Upon reading the results, the radiologist deemed it a "normal functioning gallbladder" But when the GI heard of my discomfort during the test, he made an appt for me to see a...

ARCHIVED Anyone Know The Area Of Lancaster County?
Janeti replied to Janeti's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
We would like the see the Amish, and visit some farmers markets. We really don't know anything about the area, so any suggestions are appreciated. Wow! B&B's that serve gluten-free??? I think thats the most exciting thing I've heard in a long time. I am looking into Willow Valley, Do you know of any other ones? Thank you! -

Hello All, Me and my family will be traveling to PA, and was hoping my kids would be able to do apple and pumkin picking. Also, I was looking at all the lovely inns, they all look wonderful. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it. Thanks...Janet -

Hello All.... I promised my sister in law (she is also has celiacs) that I would help find her a recipe....And I know that I came to the right place Thanks !! Janet -
ARCHIVED Burning Sensation When Swallowing Hot Food....
Janeti replied to withnail69's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I had that happen to me also...Anything that was hot had to be cooled off, coffee and tea had to be at room temperature. Eventually, I developed thrush, which was all due to candida overgrowth. It took over my entire body. My ND dr tested me and found that I had 9 strains of fungal overgrowth. Maybe it is something that you can look into. After I was... -
I finally had my appointment with the new endo, and she is very nice. She's not too happy with the size of my thyroid, now I have multiple nodules that she wants biopsied. I had that done once before and it isn't very pleasant. She ordered the free t3 and free t4, which I'm not sure if that has ever been done. Then once she gets the results back, I will...

ARCHIVED Need Your Ideas
Janeti replied to holdthegluten's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hello Wayne, I have been reading your posts for a while now, and I feel so bad for you. Alot of what you said, is the way that I feel. Have the Drs ever checked to see if your gallbladder is still functioning? I know that when I was at my sickest, my liver functions were abnormal, and within the following months, it was removed, but....I still didn... -
ARCHIVED Aches...........again?
Janeti replied to holdthegluten's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I completely agree with Tom. For me it seems when my body reacts to a food that I have become intolerant to, it effects the weakest of my joints. These are the joints that have deteriorated from years of being calcium and vit D deficient. I finally went to see a ND, and he has been helping me find out what these foods are, and he has put me on vitamins... -
ARCHIVED Hypothyroidism Improvement
Janeti replied to AllisonD128's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
It wouldn't surprise me if I had an endo that wasn't steering me in the right direction, or any MD for that matter. If that weren't the case, I would be in better health now. So I now made an appoinment with a new endo. Of course being a new patient, I will have to wait 2 months to see her. But thanks to all who made me rethink my Hashimotos. Hopefully... -
ARCHIVED Hypothyroidism Improvement
Janeti replied to AllisonD128's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Loraleena, I think we had written before about the Armour meds. I did ask my Dr about it and he claims that it was an out dated medicine and prefers not to use it. He has been sending me for thyroid scan, and just recently a thyroid ultrasound. Right now I have no symptoms, just some GI issues. I truly believe that if the Drs would have listened to me... -
ARCHIVED Hypothyroidism Improvement
Janeti replied to AllisonD128's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Yes, I have true blue hashimotos, like you said its the anitbodies that name the thyroid condition. I have been taking synthroid since 1999. When my heart was racing and my hands were shaking, the dr kept lowering my dose. I have not taken synthroid in a long time. In a letter written from my endocrinologist to my MD, he stated, Synthroid given while...
