  1. I feel your pain....I have been so frustrated lately. I have been gluten free since 9/07. Felt better, for the most part, after going gluten free. But it wasn't long until some of the symptoms started recurring. I was tested for dairy and found that I have casein intolerance. I have now been cfgf. I have periods where I feel really good and then all...
  2. I have been having a few episodes lately of stomach cramps, muscle pain, lightheadedness, nauseau, very anxious, etc. I am always careful to not intentionally ingest gluten. I have been frustrated trying to figure what may be causing this. I have taken Walgreen's Brand Milk of Magnesia a couple of times recently and I do seem to have problems that occur...
  3. Can someone give me the name of calcium supplements that are gluten-free/cf that are gentle on the stomach? I have not been taking calcium supplements like I should because I haven't found one that doesn't seem to upset my stomach. Also, what is a good multivitamin? Thank you for any advice you can give.
  4. Has anyone tried these new fruit drinks called Fuze? It appears that they are gluten free....just wondering if anyone knows for sure.
  5. I was diagnosed in Sept. 2007 with celiac disease and I have been gluten free for about 6 months. I feel a lot better although I still have some bad days. I am still periodically having trouble with chronic constipation, nausea & some joint pain. Other than a few episodes of possible cross contamination, I am on a strict gluten free diet. I have been...
  6. I think I may have had an accidental glutening or I am casein intolerant. I have been gluten free for about 4-5 months. I believe that I have other intolerances that I need to start trying to identify and working on. In the past month, I have had this happen a couple of times and it will last several days. I get cramping, gas and pain on the mid...
  7. I believe that I have other food intolerances. I think that casein is one. I haven't been as strict about avoiding casein as I should be because it seems bad enough to have to be gluten free. It doesn't seem fair to have additional intolerances. Plus I have not been medically diagnosed with casein intolerance. There are days when I am fairly certain...
  8. What is the best bread (store bought) for sandwiches? I bought sandwich bread at Whole Foods but it doesn't feel fresh and it is very dense. It is better to make things that french toast, in my opinion. Also, I am open to suggestions for quick, simple meals on the road. My son plays college baseball, therefore my husband and I will be on the road staying...
  9. Does anyone know if Equate brand Stool Softeners are gluten free? It is not marked on the bottle. They are a whole lot cheaper than Colace.
  10. Yes, I am very diligent about checking labels for gluten. I am sure that I may overlook some hidden sources of gluten, just like many new celiacs do. I knew that dark chocolate hershey's kisses were gluten free so that is why I did not check the label. I have bought new pots, etc. and tried to do everything possible to be gluten free and yet, I still...
  11. I have been on a gluten free diet since being diagnosed in September 2007. I felt good in the beginning and then had a few episodes where I was accidentally glutened. I have been trying so hard but it seems I never go longer than a few days at a time of feeling good without having an episode. The episodes I have been having the past few days are...
  12. Some bloodwork and tests don't detect a gallbladder problem if you don't have gallstones. Ask the doctors to do an ejection fraction test on your gallbladder. I had my gallbladder removed several years ago and the problem showed up on an ejection fraction. This test measures the pressure and frequency of bile injecting from through your gallbladder....
  13. I would like to know if anyone else had this reaction or any side effects after taking actonel. I have been very careful regarding accidental glutenings and cc, however I have had episodes in the past couple of weeks that make me feel awful. I can't think of anything I ate that would make me feel this way. I have a severe Vitamin D deficiency and...
  14. Did anyone have a problem with nausea and stomach pain after diagnosed with Celiac and going gluten free? I have been gluten free for almost 2 months. I accidentally glutened myself about 1 1/2 weeks ago and it was miserable.....cramping, constipation (i get constipation), extreme anxiety and angry feeling, etc. It took about 1 week to feel better. ...
  15. I have seen McCormick Taco Seasoning listed on a gluten free list. Has anyone used this seasoning? If so, did it cause problems.?
  16. I have been gluten free for about 6-7 weeks now. I had an accidental glutening about 5 days ago. I have a Wendy's gluten free list and I noticed that their salads were listed on there. Well, I got the Mandarin Chicken Salad with the Asian Sesame dressing that goes with it. About 2-3 hours after I ate it, I started cramping and feeling nauseous. I looked...
  17. Does anyone know of a correlation between celiac disease with Vitamin D deficiency and Degenerative Disc Disease?
  18. It seems there are so many different supplements and vitamins on the market. I would like to take supplements that are good for us with celiac disease, however it is quite mind boggling when you go to that section of the store because there are so many. I would like to know which supplements that you think are most important to aid in the healing and...
  19. Does anyone know if Newman's Own Light Honey Mustard Salad Dressing gluten-free? I looked on their website and they have a table listing allergens in all their products. The only one showing for this salad dressing is 'milk. However, in their Q&A section, they listed their gluten free products and this salad dressing is not listed. I am confused...
  20. Does anyone know if these are gluten free? Listerine mouthwash Icee
  21. This is kind of a weird question but I will ask anyway. It is even hard to explain. Does anyone ever get a weird feeling in their stomach? It isn't a stomachache or nausea. It feels like my stomach hurts because it is hungry. I am not hungry.....well not too much. I can eat something and it still feels the same way. It seems like I am hungry for...
  22. What brands are most likely to list gluten? Or which brands would you trust natural flavors? This gluten free shopping is still so confusing and wonder when it will get easier? Of course, it has been less than 1 month.
  23. I had an appt. today for a re-check with the endocrinologist. I was referred to an endocrinologist several months ago by the orthopedic I went to for back and joint pain. He did bone density scan and checked several things by blood test. In addition to my back problems, he said I had osteoporosis and a severe vitamin d deficiency. My vitamin d level...
  24. Just a quick question. I have been on the gluten free diet since I was diagnosed about 3 weeks ago. I am doing better but I still have weird stomach things going on. I have a pain just under my ribs on the left side and it goes around into the back just under the ribs. It is very uncomfortable at times and my ribs seem sensitive to the touch. The night...
  25. Vitamin D deficiency is definitely possible and I believe celiac is the cause. I live in the South where sun (and heat) is prevalent most of the year and I have a severe vitamin D deficiency. As a matter of fact, that should have been the first clue for the doctors. However, they just put me on 50,000 iu of Vitamin D 2x weekly for 6 weeks. Actually...
