    The Veggie and Flaxseed Tortilla Chips and the Pineapple salsa are favorites in my family. We also like the Chicken Taquitos. The praline pecans are a nice treat to have in the cupboard when you want a sweet bite. Have fun at Trader Joes:)

    I have been gluten free for 3 months and I have experienced the same thing! However, I recently had an appt with an herbalist and discovered food sensitivities that I think are the culprit. A few of the things I cannot have are soy, dairy, any berries with little seeds (strawberries, raspberries etc...she said it's difficult for my irritated gut to digest...

    Actually Panera bread does have some good gluten free options. They have been so understanding and helpful when I explain to them that I have allergies and that I need them to change gloves etc to make my food. I have eaten there twice since my diagnosis in April and I haven't gotten sick either time! I've always ordered a salad (they have excellent dressing...

    That is so interesting about McDonalds fries. I ate a small handful a few weeks ago, thinking they were the only thing I could eat there, and suffered for almost a week afterword. Thanks for updating us on this!

    My first two cycles following my diagnosis and new gluten free diet were much lighter with minimal cramping and lighter flow. Made me excited to think my monthly 7 days of misery were in the past. However, Aunt flo has not been shy about her third appearance. This is some of the worst cramping and bloating I've ever experienced. I'm so bloated I can't even...

    I am new too, having been diagnosed in early April. Before my endoscopy they diagnosed me with ulcers and I took Prilosec for several weeks. It made me feel worse so i stopped taking it and discovered that most likely it was a lack of stomach acid that further affected my digestion issues. My natural health care practicioner recommended that I take stomach...

    Thanks for the hope. Sometimes these odd symptoms seem unexplainable and it makes a person wonder if they are the only one with them! I am currently living in a home with a kitchen that is used alot for regular glutened meals, so it's not surprising that I would be glutened without knowing it. I'm not sure how I will do this so I don't have to fight cc in...

    Sorry, I know this sounds gross. I was diagnosed 7 weeks ago and am just starting to feel energetic and food really digests when I eat! However, I still have an odd symptom that still affects me. After a bowel movement (even a normal one!) I feel nauseaus for hours. Does anyone experience this or know what I can do (or not do) to help this? This forum...

    Thank you! I will try to eliminate casien and see if it helps...I'm so miserable it's worth trying anything!

    Thanks for those tips. I too have been experiencing the same up and down symptoms and you've given me hope and new places to be aware that gluten may be hiding!

    I have recently received a diagnosis of celiac disease from a blood test. My dr was unable to get a biopsy due to the inflammation of my small intenstine, however, they are pretty confident that they have reached an answer. After my release from the hospital I went right out and de-glutened my kitchen and felt tremendous for the first 3 days! However over...
