ARCHIVED Help With Elimination Diet!
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Well the thing with apples, maybe I didn't explain it well? Some kinds of apples I'm perfectly fine after eating, others it's just maybe like a too acidid or unsettled feeling, that's asking for more food in it.. and once I do that, it goes away.. so that wouldn't be an allergy or anything, since eating something else makes it go away, would it be? burdee... -
ARCHIVED Going Off Gfcf, Okay For A Day?
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Wow, thankies.. got a lot of responses here. Not online long though, so just skimmed. I'll come back and read through better later.. just wanted to let everyone know I didn't have any gluten filled cakes, so no one need to worry. =) -
ARCHIVED Going Off Gfcf, Okay For A Day?
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks.. Hmmm.. well, didn't see anything for making cakes at the grocery store I went to, last week. They do have a nice gluten-free section. I dunno, if my body was actually feeling better on the diet, I wouldn't even considering it.. but when my body hasn't been considerate enough to start feeling better after 14 weeks being Gluten-free Casein-free.. why... -

Sugar intolerance?!?! Can you please push me off a cliff now? =D -
Ahhhh!!! LOL I follow ya. =P darlindeb25 -> I think her concern was if he recently ate something with gluten in it, since kissing can cause someone to get glutened.. and if he, well.. performed it on her. Sounds like yer thinking the other way around too? Unless I'm wrong, reading it that way. Sorry! =) Jill, I don't think you need to worry...

Well, since I didn't actually do anything to prepare.. or take the time to figure out cakes that could be made that are Gluten-free Casein-free.. seems like no birthday cake today! Guess, I'm fine with that.. though would it be that big of a deal if I just had fun for the day, spoil and posion myself with a nice yummy store bought cake? Oh gawd, then if...

ARCHIVED Help With Elimination Diet!
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Argh.. that rice diet, scarey! Makes sense though, about not drinking with food, least I think so. But no orange juice? *cries* That'd be the only thing I'd be drinking, besides water.. LOL. Hmmm.. I tried looking for white rice, seems to have added stuff. Blecky. Few different brands did. So got some brown rice instead. Don't like the idea of... -
cynicaltomorrow, she means.. the oral kind, lol. Jill, I have no clue either.. maybe just have him wash his mouth really well before hand, to be safe? Or.. hump a loaf of bread to see if there is a reaction? And I'll go hide now. Not exactly a lady either, but thought I'd try to help. =P

ARCHIVED Help With Elimination Diet!
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Oh, you sure? I make sure to check the labels and haven't come across any that have lactose on them. Hmm.. I'll be sure to doubly check them in the future. Thanks! =) -
ARCHIVED Blood Test For Other Food Allergies
Alexolua replied to HAPPY DOG SUZ's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I really think that's something you should ask your doctor. Think he or she would know which labs he or she uses, unless of course you asked him or her already, and he or she had no clue. -
ARCHIVED Help With Elimination Diet!
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Oh, I think my body should beable to handle it.. use to be very active. Just when my tummy/intestines seem to always been feeling bad, kinda kills the motivation to work out, LOL. -
ARCHIVED Help With Elimination Diet!
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yeah, when I went gluten-free/CF.. I didn't plan at all. Just did it! That was annoying. Didn't even really get out to the store, to get foods.. till a week after that! LOL Umm.. I get like no weight bearing excerise. Eeep! Guess I should, well.. stop putting getting back into excerising off. =) -

Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I don't know debmidge. Maybe that's a no? Well, yes to healing, no if you don't avoid things that bother it. tarnalberry -> I can go with sweet potatoes. Anything else good for like calcuim, iron, etc.. all that needed stuff? I am gonna try to find a website or something hopefully that can explain that stuff. Planning I might get this started next... -
ARCHIVED Rice Milk
Alexolua replied to debmidge's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Just a warning. Lactose free, doesn't mean there isn't any milk in it. There could be casein, which is a milk protein. Make sure to check for that on the label. Unless of course casein doesn't bother you. =) -
ARCHIVED Help With Elimination Diet!
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yes, very helpful. Thanks! Though makes this sound like even more work! =P Hmm.. I'd have no clue what to eat though, if I got rid of everything I ate twice a week, lol. -
Maybe the gluten-free diet causes fat to store more around the tummy? Or we just need to excerise and do crunches! lol
-
If it makes you feel better, I've lost about 13-15 pounds since I went gluten-free/CF.. and it seems like my tummy is bigger!! That's even more annoying, and I really didn't need to lose weight, LOL. So not alone. =)

ARCHIVED Help With Elimination Diet!
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
That explains why websites were telling me different things! Confused me. =) Well.. that's the problem.. I think since I'm so symptomatic still.. it's hard to tell what bothers me and doesn't, unless it is a major reaction. I am eyeing Soy and Nuts as bad things though. I figure, if I'm gonna do it.. try to cover everything! Oninions.. never noticed... -
ARCHIVED Help With Elimination Diet!
Alexolua posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I've decide to do one of those awful.. err wonderful elimination diets. Figure after 12 weeks of being gluten-free/CF without much improvement, be best to check. Looking for advice, help, etc! Gonna try to be fairly strict. And I have been trying to search yahoo.. it's hard, and so many people here are smart! Sorry. =) I would be cutting out: Soy, Corn... -
ARCHIVED Soy Problem Or Too Much Margaine?
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Burdee, I actually had what I'd call my normal reaction.. Tuesday night!! Argh. Had the Soy on Sunday.. so maybe it was just really delayed, and the things I felt before hand, were added. Though I was an idiot and had something Monday night that might have containned traces of nuts too.. lol. So, think I just need to really eliminate everything, and... -
ARCHIVED Soy Problem Or Too Much Margaine?
Alexolua replied to Alexolua's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks for the comments all. Well I tried testing it out, and unfortunately my body doesn't want to be helpful!! Burdee, I actually drank a TON of soy milk, hehe. But.. I'm not sure if I'm having a reaction or not. If I am, it's nothing at all like I had to the Soybean Margarine. Not nearly as bad. Which doesn't make sense, since if I have a problem... -
ARCHIVED Celiac Vs Guten Intolerence
Alexolua replied to lilliexx's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yeah.. the odds are much much greater for developing celiac disease. Though throwing out personal experience, after about 10 years I haven't developed celiac disease, when my symptons first started.. of course, my symptons have gotten so bad, really can't live life.. so, even if you don't officially develop celiac disease, being off gluten is a good thing... -
ARCHIVED Celiac Vs Guten Intolerence
Alexolua replied to lilliexx's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'd say yeah, at risk. If I'm learning things correctly, a gluten intolerance doesn't always lead to Celiac. Might be wrong there. But it definitely leads to other health problems, so why risk getting really sick in the future? I'd say go with being gluten-free completely. Would say you're lucky it was found now, before you got worse symptons though. ... -
Great job Jill! Much better to try and educate others, than just not try. =)

ARCHIVED Soy Sauce
Alexolua replied to BamBam's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Umm.. yeah. Seen a few posts by this person that just seems to have a better-than-thou-I-know-everything attitude. That doesn't help anyone, and I'd ask this person to drop the attitude, and fully explain something.. if they want to actually be helpful here. No offense meant to you coin-op. But if you truly want to help people here (and thanks if you do...
