  1. Bless you Peter. I needed your help on this one! I've been trying to find articles on the subject. Dh says I've been on the computer long enough today. Good night all neesee
  2. My chronic lower left abdominal pain turned out to be diverticulitis. It always hurts. And then it got to be severe. It's my fault it got so bad. I blamed it on the celiac. I was wrong. My son is 28 and already has diverticulosos. So if you think you are too young. think again. You probably should have a colonoscopy. neesee
  3. My blood sugar has entered the pre diabetic ranges on the gluten-free diet. I had to cut back on all the goodies! If my test is bad, I'll make some changes. As far as I know type 2 diabetes is not associated with celiac. My mother was type 1. She died with all the complications a diabetic can have. It broke my heart and I never got over it. She...
  4. As far as my non gluten-free kitchen goes, I will know soon enough if I've made a mistake. My new Dr. is running a ttg. I had a lot of diarrhea with my diverticulitis attack and she wants to check for compliance to the diet. I do think it isn't right to feed a diabetic refined white rice flour. Even with artificial sweeteners, it's just too much...
  5. I don't keep a gluten-free kitchen. My dh has a pretty severe case of type 2 diabetes and all the rice flour products are just not good for his blood sugar. Too refined! I keep a variety of whole grain breads and wraps for him. I love him dearly and I want to keep him for as long as possible. We do usually have a gluten-free supper with either potoaoes...
  6. I'm praying for you blessings. neesee
  7. I don't at all believe that digestive enzymes are snake oil. I have taken them on occasion. My Dr. prescribed them and wrote me a prescription for them to see if they would help my sluggish digestion. They are much cheaper that way and you know what you are getting. I was never told they would help if I was glutened. I still have to be gluten-free. ...
  8. Thank you Patti. I'm sure I will. neesee
  9. Awww.... thank you Judy and Celiac mommy. I have to say, even though was really bad, I feel so loved! My family is the best! My little poodle babies too! I thought the were going to drown me with kisses when I got home neesee
  10. I spent the past week in the hospital. I thought I had been glutened! It was acute sigmoid diverticulosis. The Drs. found it in the cat scan. I was in so much pain! I had IV antibotics for 7 days and now I'm on oral antibiotics at home. I don't think I'm out of the woods yet. I need a colonoscopy in 4 to six weeks to see how damaged I really am. The doggone...

  12. Fresh pineapple makes me feel like my stomach is digesting itself. I'm fine with canned pineapple. neesee

    ARCHIVED Taco Bell

    I haven't been to a Taco Bell for well over 20 years. That's how much I trust the place. neesee
  14. Did the pathologist say he saw blunted villi? Or was that what the gastroenterologist said he saw. It's always been my understanding that damage is microscopic and can't be seen with the naked eye. That's why the pathologist makes the final diagnosis. Maybe you should get a copy of the pathologist's report. If it were me, I would give the gluten-free diet...
  15. Here's some info on digestive enzymes that I think comes from a pretty reliable source. Open Original Shared Link Oh and Rachel, I don't think you're a shill and Im sure you don't have a connection to unclezack. neesee
  16. Open Original Shared Link I believe he has accomplished his goal here. In my opinion, he's collected a pretty good little following. It doesn't matter if he stays here now or not. neesee
  17. It is my understanding that the only known viable treatment for celiac and non celiac gluten sensitivity is the strict adherence to the gluten free diet. I also believe it is the forum's responsibility to protect the gullible ones among us from those who seek take advantage and sell us things that just don't help. neesee
  18. I prefer to read the ingredient list. It's always worked for me.
  19. I hate to be blunt but if you stink, you do have symptoms! It's just foolish not to follow the diet. Your health will decline. It might take time, but you will possibly do irreversible harm. neesee
  20. It's pretty common for all young children to catch a lot of colds. Celiac and non-celiac alike. Open Original Shared Link

  22. Personally, I don't eat if I want to count on my gut behaving. Good luck! neesee
  23. I don't know about gluten intolerance but this is what celiac did to me. I weighed 78 lbs My cholesterol was 96. 20 yrs later it's around 150 I had megaloblastic anemia I had diarrhea day and night, never a break, didn't matter if I had eaten or not I had cracks at the corners of my mouth, I still have a scar on the right side I got to the point I...
  24. Hi Rain, I'm glad you have your answer. Now your son will get better. I would have gone for the biopsy too. neesee
  25. I know they use bleach in the dish water at Burger King. It's a requirement there. My dd is a BK manager. Boy, that bleach water is hard on her hands, especially in the winter when she works on drive-thru. neesee
