    Thanks Peter!

    Octoberme, Perhaps I should be first to welcome you to the club. Every one of your concerns has been addressed in these blogs and soon you'll have some specific advise from the great people here who are more experienced than me. You can search the past blogs for specific past discussions to your concerns. At least know that you are not alone. These...

    My gold standard for understanding I have been poisoned is my "gut reaction." When I first started going gluten-free after two years of low carbs as well, my tummy just disapeared one night. I was shocked, my stomach just dropped away from my rib cage. And lo and behold in the morning: abs! I associate the bloating with the idea that any inflammation...

    A prior topic on wheat in cat litter prompted my to look also at my cat's food and sure enough there it is. I have been "gluten-free" or so I thought for years, but unable to get beyond feeling positively poisoned in the last six months. Hopefully, this was the cause. Does anyone know of some quality, wheat-free dry cat food? Also, I wonder if my cat...

    Reading this Cat Litter Blog led me to check on my own brand - Dr. Elsey's Precious Cat. I was told it is pure sodium bentonite. It is more reasonably priced, clumps great and the "feel" is just right for cats. You can find it online at www.preciouscat.com. There may be other reasons to avoid clay litter from what I see here though. David

    The common thread to this thread seems to be that the requirements of the gluten-free lifestyle can spark an almost violent reaction in those around us. My guess is that the idea that something so familiar as bread is a (possibly widespread) health hazard is a violation of their world-view. These folks are ususally staunch supporters of the status-quo...

    Also, two weeks, or two months (to mental clarity) not two days is more likely what you are looking at.

    More pain as you get clean seems to be my response. I'm guessing that as you begin to not overstress the gut with poison it looses some of the excess mucus lining and thus it's protection. Then when you get hit again you digest a lot of it and whamo!

    I'm guessing that's the last time you'll cheat. You've got a month of intestinal hell awaiting you. Just try to make the connection. Also, diminshing (better to quit cold turkey) your intake of easy starches will diminish your addiction to them almost overnight. You won't be tempted by the glycemic (sugar) drop in your blood to gorge on garbage. Sorry...

    Hi, Welcome and Sorry. I'm a garden-vegatable and discount meat eating person so the expense of treating celiac is not insurmountable. You will find that most pre-packaged garbage at the grocery store averages $4.00 per pound. Check Froot-loops. So is the butcher's special. I just bought a pork roast on sale at King Soopers for $1.79 a pound with KS...

    Thank you all for your kind, insightful comments. Each of your observations has helped me find better approaches to this "one more symtom of celiac disease." One thing I'll pass on is a naturaopathic remedy of coloidal silver eydrops. Seems to help.

    This symptom parallels my own post-poisoning timeline and process. Malabsortion of fats which float (oil on water) is the likely explaination.
  14. Celiaction
    Unbelievable! I tell people that the symptoms of Celiac are "all of them." It seems more true than ever. I've been wearing my rollerblade wrist-guard for the last two weeks to get relief from a "construction injury" working with cordless drills that have a heavy battery and often kick-back and tweak the wrist. I thought it was possibly arthritis or even...

    Just wondering if anyone else gets this weepy, itchy, gooey, publicly embarassing problem. I consistently get what seems to be an eye infection when poisoned (glutened). It may be an opportunistic infection (immune system busy elsewhere) or a more direct symptom. There's extreme times when my eyes swell shut. And that old adage of "don't rub it...
  16. Celiaction
    I would say I have in the two years I have fought this battle been completely healed maybe twice. When I went 4 months between poisonings I had boundless energy, full use of my mind, regular pain-free BMs, no eye infection, no dry lips, no body pain, slept well, etc. It is the holy grail to get back there and requires extreme discipline but it is well worth...
