  1. Fructose from Wheat?? OMG what next? I am very new to all of this and have been on this website nearly all night reading and reading and learning a lot of new stuff. I have only been diagnosed for about 3 months now with celiac disease and was eating Mento's in the box because I thought they were okay. The ones in the rolls for some weird reasons have...
  2. I have just recently been diagnosed with Celiac disease but have always had a problem with bruising easily. You can just touch me and it seems I will have a bruise there. I am just wondering if this is also part of Celiac disease and goes along with the anemia and related problems ? Anyone else have this? Thanks
  3. My experience was that if you have a low acid stomach the vinegar may help but if you had over active stomach acidity it could make it worse. I did the Bragg's Vinegar thing in the water and my stomach got Much worse. I have been too scared to try it again for the acid reflux, so now I am trying the Organic Aloe Vera juice and organic raw garlic cloves...
  4. Yes Yes Yes!! Took me forever to figure this one out though. I thought it was the milk if I had mashed potatoes, then I thought it must be the butter if I had baked potatoes, then I thought maybe it was something in the Combo of the Starch and Protein together issue (the Macrobiotic method of eating says this is a big No No), finally after being diagnosed...
  5. I have had those Zig-Zag half-moon flashes across my eyes for years and my Eye doctor told me they can happen if I've eaten too much chocolate or cheese. She said that for me at least it was nothing to worry about that sometimes the blood vessels get stressed and dialated after chocolate or cheese consumption and causes this reaction. Hopefully it will be...
  6. My husband was telling me something about this which I half listened to at the time, but this ~might~ explain why when I used to be preparing certain foods (I am newly diagnosed Celiac 3 months ago), that just smelling and handling certain foods my stomach would start to swell up so bad that by the time supper rolled around I couldn't eat because I felt like...
  7. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease in 1991 and they started me out on Synthroid which my heart decided I was not going to be able to tolerate. I had heart palpitaions galore while on that stuff. After almost of Year of being on Synthroid and suffering through many odd things, my Endo. switched me to Levothroid. YAY, no problems ever since. There...

    I am so sorry to hear of al of the troubles you are having with your acid reflux. I never had any troubles with this until about a year ago, which was about 9 months before I was diagnosed with Celiac disease. Pills and surgeries are not an option for me as I'm the biggest chicken on the planet when it comes to going to doctors and I have full blown panic...
  9. I'm A- and have Celiac disease, dead thyroid gland, MVP (mitral valve prolapse), and have food and other skin sensitivities (make-ups and even our chlorinated water makes my skin break out).
  10. You won't want to hear from me then. I ordered these oats about 3 months ago after I was first diagnosed because our Gastro gave us a sample to try. The first time I ate them I had a reaction, but I thought perhaps since I was so newly diagnosed at that time that perhaps it was just my over sensitive stomach. So about a week later maybe 10 days later...
  11. Oh hoooray I found your orig. message about the Tostito's...I just responded to your Follow-Up but hadn't seen this message yet. Thank you So Much for sharing this info and for calling Frito-Lay. Are they ever going to have GOOD clear Labeling? This is crazy stuff...now I'll have to make Notes to take with me to the grocery store to check for Coded Messages...
  12. Thanks for posting this about the Tostitos and Fritos. I wonder if the Restaurant Style Totitos are treated differently because when I've eaten them in the past....Yeooowwwyyy my stomach hurts. Perhaps you already posted about that somewhere else, but I found this message first so pardon me if I've missed something, I'm new here so trying to gain as much...
  13. I am freaking out here because I am newly diagnosed with Celiac disease and have read so much on this website today that describes Many and most of the symptom I have been suffereing with for years and chalked it up to just getting old! I am a product of the 60's hippie scene so am probably a lot older than most of you are, but we still suffer the same problems...
  14. Well, since I have seen others post about "Bathroom" issues, I guess its okay, so here goes... I am newly diagnosed with Celiac so perhaps this is all part of the healing processes too, but my problem is that I seem to have lost the "ummmppphhh" or ~push~ for lack of a better way of describing it when going "Number 2"! (BM's). Its like, I've Got to...

    Try cutting out the Dairy completely for a while and see what happens. Also you may have an allergy to Corn or the SOY! I cannot tolerate Soy at all and I have read some not so great things lately about Soy so perhaps its part of the culprit too. I switched to Rice milk but then found out that the very brand I was drinking contained barley malt, a No No...
