I'm sorry that you had to go through that My attacks are similar to yours. I once had severe stomach pain for about 1 week. The pain came in waves every few hours and I could not predict when the pain would come. And of course the pain would come while I was in front of people away from home. I ended up locking myself in a room for about an hour until...

Carriefaith replied to Moongirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I also think that the wheat would be washed away. If you do decide to try it out, just make sure that the shampoo or conditionor doesn't get into your mouth after the first week or so of washes. -

ARCHIVED Other Intollerances/ Allergies
Carriefaith replied to lisaemu's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I am allergic to milk and I didn't mind giving up dairy products, although I do miss cheese. I like being gluten and dairy free, I just don't like that everyone feels the need to put dairy and gluten in almost everything! If you think that you may be allergic to certain foods, maybe get an allergy blood test done? I just had one done in February and one... -

Carriefaith replied to Fiddle-Faddle's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I didn't know about that!

Workers in several factories that manufacture artificial... -
ARCHIVED Question About School
Carriefaith replied to JacobsMom's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
If they will let him use the fridge then you are all set. Just clearly label his lunch bag with his name and that he has celiac disease, so no one will open the bag. If he doesn't have access to a fridge at camp, maybe invest in an ice pack and keep in in a small cooler. You can get coolers in soft lunch bag-like material. -

Someone from the US may be able to answer your question (I am from Canada). But, I get the sauces at my local grocery store. I'm assuming that they wouldn't be hard to find in the US either. -

Carriefaith replied to macdwp01's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Welcome Your results are high and they indicate that you may have celiac disease. I would suggest getting the Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) test since that test is highly specific for celiac disease. If you want more testing done, make sure that you don't start the gluten-free diet until after your tests. If you start eating gluten-free before testing... -
