  1. Posterboy, Oh its totally possible that's what the problem was, after 2 weeks of steroids & double my normal allergy meds I am seeing improvement. I am just confused about why I would test negative or >10 for a wheat allergy when I scored the highest possible level before I stopped eating it, not to mention the other things I am allergic to. I...
  2. Hi all! I tested positive for a severe gluten allergy almost 10 years ago & have been gluten-free since (with the occasional accidental glutening from time to time). I had a weird skin rash (hives, dry skin, burning, etc.) come up about 3 weeks ago & my doctor said it was a histamine reaction. Did a blood test for a few major allergies (wheat...
  3. Hi Sella, I know you said you had your thyroid checked but have you had a full blood panel done? While I don't have Celiac (well, I haven't been tested for it), I do have a severe gluten allergy (IgE) as well as gluten sensitivity (IgA). When I started my gluten-free diet, I did experience pretty serious hair loss that I still struggle with today almost ...
  4. Thanks for the suggestions! If anyone else has any more, please let me know. Jess
  5. Hi ya'll! I will be vacationing for a week in July in the Destin/Ft. Walton/Miramar Beach area. Our condo has a kitchen in it thank God but we will be eating out on the beach & boardwalk alot. If you know of any safe suggestions please let me know! Otherwise I am going to be eating nothing but steamed crab legs & mussels! Thank you! Jess
  6. I am going to be in the Destin/Ft. Walton Beach area in July & desperately need restaurant suggestions! Otherwise I will be drinking wine & eating crab all week!!!!! Any links or information would be helpful!.
  7. Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

  8. I am constantly eating @ the IHOP here in Dallas after some late nights @ the bar. While I have never had a glutening attack, I also order the same things everytime. I only get fresh egg omelets or the breakfast sampler with absolutely no pancakes. I wish that could eat other items & sometimes want to chance it but I don't. It is wonderful that more ...
  9. Sorry this is such a late response but I didn't see this post! I go to Fox n Hound like twice a week but the only thing I eat there is the cheese fries. They are definitely gluten-free as I have never gotten sick from them as is the ranch dressing. They are really good too! Well, at least the ones around Dallas are. They also have Tito's Vodka & during...
  10. Anyone?

  12. Ok, so I am still having problems with my thyroid & have yet to find a doctor willing to do anything about it. According to them it is not enough that I lose a handful of hair 2x a day, am constantly tired & cold, have terrible skin, insanely high cholesterol levels, & have extra body hair creeping up everyday. Somehow they find it
  13. I am not too sure about the celiac aspect but I as far as wheat allergies go, you should have a blood allergy test. I do not test positive for wheat on the skin test however I test VERY positive for it on the blood test. I also suffer from severe hives every so often when I have been glutened. You really should have another allergy test!
  14. Mitch, You should really go see an allergist. When I found out about my wheat allergy there was a list of other things I was allergic to also but never got a reaction from. Now that I am gluten free I have noticed I get a reaction from these things that I did not before. My allergist describes it as you body can only fight back so had so it fights the...
  15. Loraleena... Here is what I found in an old post. I know there is more than this but I don't know where the paperwork is! Cortisol (Free) - 24.2 (4.0-50.0) Urine Creatine- 0.92 (0.63-2.50) Testosterone (Free) - 1.3 (0.1-6.4) Testosterone (Total) - 23 (2-45) DHEA- 147 (45-320) Progesterone level was a 32 in a range of 30-100 FSH- <...
  16. It has been so long since I had the test I don't remember. Let me see if I can find the results. I posted them on here a while back....
  17. Kari-Out is very definitely gluten-free! I order it by the case from the website & carry them in my purse, keep them in my desk @ work, etc. I eat a TON of chinese food & sushi so I was crushed when I thought I couldn't eat soy sauce anymore.
  18. Ok, I didn't want to put this in the weight issues area because most people are trying to lose or gain weight. But I have started to lose weight FINALLY but now a new problem... my skin isn't keeping up well with the weight loss. My boobs are starting to sag a bit & I my arm skin is a bit floppy. Is there anything I can do about this? I can't help how...
  19. Thanks Cali! I was just wondering since I have been gluten-free food wise for a good bit now I am trying to cut out all the other things that might irritate my allergies. So far I haven't noticed any reactions either so that is good.
  20. I wonder if I need to get another allergy test then... I have not had any severe illness but I am stressed to the max dealing with the impending death of my fiancee (colon cancer, 2nd time). My doctor told me that I might experience some more severe responses while I am dealing with all this but I never thought about gaining new allergies.
  21. I was wondering if anyone knows if this Tide product is Gluten-Free? I love the Lemon Verbena scent & want to use it badly!
  22. Would Accupunture help me? I used to do it alot & loved it but I am in between insurance coverage right now so I stopped. Can't start again until Feb but maybe that might help? He also mentioned helping with my thyroid last time I was there so maybe that might be good... I still want to make sure that it is not my hair products thought. I went &...
  23. I have been told by my Internalist that my thyroid is in the acceptable range... I was quite sure I had a thyroid problem before I found out about my wheat allergies but once I went gluten-free all my other symptoms that were possible thyroid symptoms have gone away. I have been to tons of Dr.'s & they all say my thyroid levels are acceptable. But my...
  24. Hello All, It has been quite a while since I have posted on here but I need your wisdom again! My hair has been slowly falling out for over a year now but I figured it would stop when I started my gluten-free Diet. Well, it still has not stopped & it is starting to reach noticable levels. Now I don't have celiac I have wheat allergies. I have also...
