    Fiddle-faddle, I not stupid and I'm not misunderstanding anything at all. I just don't agree with refering to gluten as poison. Say I tell my grandson that gluten is poison and grandpa is sitting at the table eating a sandwich or maybe even pizza! How do you suppose he will feel about this? It isn't good for him to hear things like that. I don't believe...

    I've seen it it written here and there that some compare eating gluten to eating rat poison. I've also seen it written that 1 in 133 people have celiac. Now, suppose we take 266 people and do an experiment. Lets say we feed 133 of them gluten. How many would get sick? Theoretically.1 should get sick. Now suppose we feed rat poison to the other 133 people...

    I don't really have a problem with non celiac gluten intolerent people. I felt ganged up on and I lashed out. My son is gluten free without a diagnosis and he definately needs to stay that way. Denise

    I was trying to be supportive! Just because a person has celiac does not entitle them to be mean and nasty. People won't like you! neesee

    I take Diovan and Toprol for my hbp and ischemia. I'm sure you could find something you can take. You have to get used to some of the side effects of medications sometimes. You need to get serious about your blood pressure! My son has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. He also has a posterior fossa sub arachnoid cyst and high blood pressure. I have no idea what...

    No, they put it right in his hands! Do you know how difficult that is for him? I think it's downright cruel. But the truth is they just don't seem to know any better. They figure a little won't hurt. Well, it does. Type 1 diabetes killed my mother! I can deal with celiac. Diabetes is much more difficult. neesee

    Colleen.... I was not refering to you! I know you better than that. neesee

    If Julie's husband is the true *sshole she says he is, then the issue isn't her celiac at all! It never was. Maybe it's time for a divorce. However if she loves him, she should ignore all the lousy advice she has received. neesee

    Kindness and understanding go two ways. It seems to me that most of the people who post here are selfish and self centered. If I'm worried about crumbs on the counter, I put my food together on a plate. Problem solved! The world does not revolve around me because I have celiac. My husband is a type 2 diabetic. He doesn't scream and holler when someone...

    I get nausea, shortness of breath, dizziness, and sweating when I exercise. I have ischemia. I failed my stress test last summer. Funny, my cholesterol is 151. My cardiologist feels I have small artery disease. He wanted to take me to the cath lab, but I said NO!, so I am supposed to test again in 6 mos. I also have a leaky aortic valve. neesee

    Nope, no ulcers whatsoever! neesee

    Well Joe.............My money's on the fat and the sugar. I just don't digest these things well. Not even after 20 yrs gluten free. neesee

    I'd eat them! Or at least a couple of them. I'm so weak when it comes to beautiful expensive chocolates! I know, I'm bad! I'm glad no one bought anything like that for me. Stay strong. Merry Christmas to you and your family! neesee

    Hi Raven....My husband absolutely does not have celiac. He is a type 2 diabetic who cheats his diet. He just plain eats too much! He's too chubby right now. When he's thinner his blood sugar is way better. He has high cholesterol and high blood pressure. I, on the other hand have low cholesterol. 96 total at celiac diagnosis and 20 yrs later 150. Not...

    B12 deficiency can cause all kinds of gastrointestinal problems. Actually, it could cause all of your symptoms. neesee

    It takes an alpha allele and a beta allele to make DQ2. You have the alpha allele. neesee

    Hey Joe.....This is the last time i'm going to try this! What is your blood sugar? My dh lost a tremendous amount of muscle mass before his diabetes was diagnosed! His wrists even got small. He went from 250 down to 180 in about 3 mos. He was severely dehydrated and hungry and thirsty. He did a lot of sleeping, he acted drunk, he couldn't think anymore...

    High blood sugar definately does cause diarrhea. Dh had the big D all day last friday, I finally convinced him to check his sugar and it was 279. He can also get D when his sugar comes down fast. My mom was a type 1 diabetic. She had what the drs called diabetic diarrhea. Actually it was diabetic digestive neuropathy. neesee

    It takes DQA1*0501 and DQB1*0201 to make DQ2. You have one half of that. neesee

    Hi Joe.....When is the last time you had your blood sugar checked? You list a lot of symptoms of diabetes. Especially the itchy skin and sores. However, I can't eat a lot of baked goods. I don't know what it is but they do disagree with me. You'd think I'd eaten gluten or something. lol. I need to eat pure fresh foods to feel my best. I'm a 20 yr. vetern...

    It sounds to me like you could use some extra vitamin c on a daily basis. neesee

    If he is truely IGA deficient you might ask your dr to run an IGG tTg. Elevated IGG alone shows only a possible gluten intolerance, not celiac. With your dd being type 1 diabetic, you should definately do more testing on your son to be sure. neesee

    Brian, If I recall this correctly, you said you had a pseudomonas infection last May and you were taking levaquin for it. Hopefully it's cleared up by now. However, I do wonder if a pseudomonas infection could be the cause of your digestive ailments. neesee
