ARCHIVED Frustrated Mom
MySuicidalTurtle replied to Kelsey's Mom's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
There are lnks between Celiacs and Diabetes. She does sound like she could have Celiacs and if no than for sure some food allregy, and it's good for you to get her tested. -
ARCHIVED Is Tofuttii Slice Cheese...gf?
MySuicidalTurtle replied to mrsfish-94's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
It's always best to call the number and ask the company and if that product is not glutenfree than they can tell you what products of theirs are. -
ARCHIVED Advice From Gi Dr.
MySuicidalTurtle replied to bklyn's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Therapy is something that everyone diagnosed with Celiacs should go through. Anti-anxiety pills are useful, too, but maybe not in this case. Just wait it out and see what happens. It culd be anything. Changes in the weather, bacteria levels, a virus, or just you being a lil sick. -

ARCHIVED Do I Need To Be Tested?
MySuicidalTurtle replied to TC63's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
You don't have to get tested but some people need the diagnosis like for school or work and such. If you feel fine on the diet than stick with it. There are other tests that you can do without going back on gluten. I think Enterolab is one but I am not sure. Good luck! -

ARCHIVED Rice Muffins....i Have A Question
MySuicidalTurtle replied to mrsfish-94's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I know what you mean. I find that I would rather have them stick than use oil or a spray, my personal preference I guess. My brother complains about it but hey if he wants them not to stick he can make them himself! Anyway, some oil or a non-stick spray does work well with muffins or brownies and such. -
ARCHIVED Looking For Good Bread Products

I heat the Whole Food ones up in the microwave and they taste like the biscuits at Red Lobster (minus the cheese and seasoning). They don't taste cold.

ARCHIVED Is A Cure Coming?
MySuicidalTurtle replied to Canadian Karen's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
"Daily oral administration of the drug, beginning before the onset of auto-immunity in the diabetic prone rats, cut the incidence of the disease by two-thirds, and completely blocked the development of autoimmune antibodies in the treatment responders."" So, since it is targeted agains diabetes and celiacs it would be preventing rather than curing. This... -
ARCHIVED Outback Steakhouse
MySuicidalTurtle replied to 2new2celiacs's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
That is so strange that they had never heard of it. Did you complainto the manager? I would contact someone because it a chain wide policy of gluten-free menus. Sometimes I find waiters who are clueless but usually the manager is on top of it. Outback isn't the cheapest palce and they should be on top of things. How very unacceptable. On another... -
ARCHIVED Help! Progesterone Med Gf?
MySuicidalTurtle replied to Donna F's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Even though it can't do you intestines damage you could still have some type of reaction. Like you said the burning. Just like with make up and lotions. It's an allergic reaction, rather. -

ARCHIVED Cross Contamination
MySuicidalTurtle replied to HeatherMelissa's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Even if you don't react you still cause damage. If you eat a slice of wheat bread and don't react does that mean you can say it's glutenfree but not if your sensitive? Sure, that may be an extreme but glutenfree should be glutenfree not glutenfree to those who aren't sensitive. -

ARCHIVED Are These Tests Enough?
MySuicidalTurtle replied to Lesliean's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Do you need a positive result for something? If not you can still eat glutenfree since it makes you feel better. You could always have the biopsy, too. -
ARCHIVED What About Wheat Straw In Garden & Barn?
MySuicidalTurtle replied to dperk's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Even though you have Celiacs it doens't mean you have to exclude youself from being around wheat and gluten. If you take the right steps like Richard said about washing hand and maybe wearing a mask you should be fine. If you worked in a regular bakery you could still work ther but would have to wear glovers, watch what goes in your mouth, and such.
