    Well thank you for thinking of me :-) Haven't heard of vasculits but to be honest when I read the description of every ailment & disease out there I think I have it, so if I have to throw yet one more condition into my encyclopedia neurotica I'm probably gonna but a gun in my mouth. The reality is I will never truly know if I have celiac disease unless...

    Just to refresh your memories...Ive been on a gluten-free diet for almost two years, but not 100% strict....meaning I wont tell wait staff I have a gluten allergy and will just order things on the menu that I know are safe based on research and contacting kitchen managers via phone or email in advance. Anyway, 3 weeks ago I decided that I want to be even...

    Never occurred to me that some of my symptoms could be caused by mercury in my fillings but I just had an idea. A few years ago I remember suddenly developing pressure headaches after eating certain foods and would also experience a dazed/lethargic kinda sensation. It seemed to bother me the most with acidic foods and fermented foods but I then noticed...

    Going to Charleston and am looking for safe places to eat...not chains but some of the popular local restaurants. Any suggestions?

    I actually think it happened differently...I think the infection (Giardia) caused lactose intolerance and gastritis, which is a common complication of Giardia ,and then my system broke down..consequently causing leaky guy, food sensitivities and possibly celiac since i have the genetic predisposition...but that's just my theory and i could be wrong

    The first stomach issue I had after I contracted a parasitic infection was severe lactose intolerance...and I mean severe! At that time my celiac bloodwork was negative but I always wonder if LI is implicated in celiac disease since lactase enzymes are produced on the villi. Can LI be a diagnostic marker?

    Unfortunately I am forced to eat out a lot - i work in sales and am on the road quite a bit. When I'm on my own I do fine and usually hit Whole Foods or PF Changs or somethin like that. But traveling with colleagues is what gets me everytime. They all know i'm picky w/ food and have dairy issues , but I never told them bout the gluten thing. Also I always...

    No when I had the stool test done I was still on my regular gluten diet and as far as the depression/anxiety..Ive had that all my life...way before I developed stomach issues. I'm just prone to anxiety & depression. I also forgot to mention that I had the celiac blood panel performed back in 2002, but that was right after I got hit with all my digestive...

    Ive posted here various times and you all probly think i'm nuts, and you might be right, but Ive reached a point where I am just clueless about what I should do. I have been off gluten for almost 2 yrs and never had a celiac test cause I am stubborn and dont want to have the diagnosis. I had a slight positive on a stool anti-gliadin assay and I have...

    Hello- I travel a lot and Whole Foods has been my salvation while on the road. I always go there since I get quality food and know exactly what all the ingredients are. Has anyone had negative experiences with their gluten-free hot bar/pre-cooked food? I assume all the stuff they cook that does not list wheat on the labels is gluten free. i know they...

    is it possible to experience Steatorrhea if you are non-celiac gluten intolerant or is that specifically a symptom of celiac?

    I am American - Its an insecurity not a language problem

    Why do I have such difficulty telling a waiter or waitress at a restaurant that I have a gluten allergy? There are times when i sit down at a restaurant and I have every intention of saying it but then when the waiter comes I back out and just assume my dish will be gluten-free (most times I call the restaurant in advance anyway or pick a place i am familiar...

    Is this something common to celiac or can gluten intolerance cause the same problem? Also I dont get diarrhea (Steatorrhea) but it does have the foul odor

    My company is having its global sales meeting in Cannes, France in October. I am terrified that I will be unable to eat anything and i'm either gonna starve & loose weight or get sick from eating the wrong things. I cant find any info on gluten free dining and am not sure what to do Honestly, as much as id love to see france im thinking of not going...

    Hi- I am desperately trying to find any information I can on gluten free dining in Cannes, France. Can anyone help? I dont speak french & dont know where to look thanks

    Do most people get the fatty, foul smelling diarrhea after getting a dose of the big G? Every once and a while my stools will smell really foul and float, but im not sure if its related to gluten. I think I accidentally ate some gluten last week and was fine for several days but today i had the symptoms i just described. i also took some probiotics...

    has anyone gotten sick from eating the new Gluten Free Rice Chex ??
  21. jasonD2
    If someone who is Celiac (and on a strict gluten-free diet) accidentally ingests gluten every once and a while is there a chance they can still develop cancer or severe complications as opposed to someone who is undiagnosed and consumes it for 30-40yrs? I am very strict w/ my gluten-free diet but occasionally something will slip thru the cracks..its inevitable...

    Ive heard a few people mention that pepcid ac helps with a variety of symptoms - is that really true? can it help with constipation? seems like if you're inhibiting acid then you are further compromising your digestion

    I am going to an oral pathologist next week because i think i have lichen planus. 2 weeks ago i had a bad stinging pain which i thought was just a canker sore, but it later turned into a much larger inflammation and it hasnt gotten better, even though the pain has subsided. If i am diagnosed with this now i have to worry about developing oral cancer because...

    how can i stay gluten-free for 1 week in cannes?
  25. jasonD2
    Last week I suddenly developed an irritation inside my mouth. I didnt think anything of it since i frequently bite the inside of my cheek and get the occasional canker sore. but now I have a large inflamed area thats about the size of a quarter inside my cheek. The pain has subsided, but it still looks inflamed. I am going to my dentist to have it looked...
