    ive obviously come a long way and am very comfortable ordering gluten free food in restaurants under most circumstances, but i still get this jolt of anxiety when people ask to go to dinner or bring food into plans...like every time! I just got out of an 8 month relationship. she seemed very tolerant and accepting of my dietary needs but i know deep...

    i went thru hell to get her tested and she was somewhat strict but now shes back on gluten, although she claims not as much. im so exhausted from it all and just dont have the energy to worry about what she eats anymore. is there anything else I can do? she tested negative for celiac but she is still overweight and complains how she cant loose it. when...

    When you sit down at a restaurant and tell the server you have a gluten allergy and they look at you like you're an alien? This doesnt happen to me much since i am fairly selective where i eat, but it still does happen on occasion and even at high end places. Why won't some agency make it a rule for restaurant owners to properly educate their staff on food...

    i wanted to take my girlfriend to her favorite Persian restaurant and it was looking promising. got a nice email from the manager who told me in detail what was gluten free. to double check i asked if all the marinades were gluten-free and he gave me the ingredients...garlic, olive oil, yogurt and SOY SAUCE. I also called the restaurant and asked someone...

    i was using tea treat toothpaste & tea tree tooth picks - they were definitely irritating my mouth & it got better when i stopped

    in 09 I was on a business trip- at this point I wasn't very strict about the whole gluten thing. ANyway while on the trip i developed a horrible canker sore on my left cheek and when i looked inside my mouth the whole cheek was red and inflamed. this went on for a few months and eventually the pain went away but the inside of my mouth still doesnt look...

    Thank you again Patti! Ive been a bundle of nerves all day but reading your post put my mind at ease Everyone I know thinks I'm insanely health to the point where Im OCD about it, but im the type of fella that likes to be in control of things and when it comes to my health i will not stray. Every other person I know got the flu this winter and even after...

    Thanks for your feedback- sounds like we have the same dilemma. My theory is that occasional exposure shouldnt contribute to more serious conditions as long as it is sporadic and controlled. i can understand how eating bread and pasta daily wouldnt be in our best interest, but the small molecules which will inevitably enter our body anyway shouldnt really...

    Thank you Patti! I guess in my mind getting small levels of CC a few times a month arent that big of a deal but please correct me if im wrong. I eat very healthy & take plenty of vitamins and protective supplements for my gut & whole body and for the most part feel good on a day to day basis. The biggest anxiety I have is that despite the fact...

    ive thought of that but i cant go back on gluten - ive made a lot of progress and dont want to compromise my health and possibly reverse all the repair I did as for anxiety I had that all my life and has nuthin to do with gluten...i have it with and without wheat

    of not knowing if I have celiac is once again making me absolutely paranoid. I seem to forget about it for a few months but then my mind starts wandering and I begin to obsess about it. I dine out on average of maybe 2-3 times per week depending on work, travel & other factors. I ALWAYS do my very best to pick restaurants that have a gluten free menu...

    All throughout my legs and sometimes my arms too..usually its subtle and i often wonder if it could also be psychosomatic to a certain extent. I have been on the diet but i do eat out a lot and even though im always careful its not fullproof and im sure i get exposed to trace amts of gluten on occasion. I decided to not live in a bubble and make my own...

    is a kinda tingling sensation in my legs. Still never diagnosed with celiac but carry DQ8 and had elevated stool antibodies. could the tingling be a symptom of celiac? could it also be a symptom of non-celiac gluten intolerance?
  15. jasonD2
    Seriously, every single person i meet or hear about w/ a gluten intolerance is female. I feel like the only guy who has it...why?
  16. jasonD2
    she suggested a french restaurant for brunch yesterday so we went. well it wasnt a sit down and order type restaurant it was a stand in line- order- take your food to the table type place. anyway, all of the food was pre-prepared so i didnt feel comfortable ordering anything there. i even asked if I could just get 2 eggs over easy w/ bacon and they couldnt...

    I appreciate the responses but im getting a little tired of everyone telling me i need counseling...thats not why i come here. I come here to share stories and experiences and to vent. Its a cliche response that i can get from pretty much anyone I talk to. Telling me i need counseling is counterproductive and is not going to make me do it any sooner..trust...

    i still obsess over everything that lead to all my digestive health issues and cant help but feel that everything i am living with today could have been prevented. AFter i contracted giardia in 02 and developed severe gastroenteritis followed by 5 months of gastritis i just went back to my normal diet and pretty much ate everything, except for dairy which...

    uhh, you mean it healed on its own?

    I had a fistula & a hemmorrhoid surgically corrected last year. also had a fissure which got a little better but now its bothering me again. i get hard stools periodically despite all my dietary changes and taking magnesium daily and now i think im getting another hemmorhoid...this is a viscious cycle & i am worried this will plague me for the rest...

    ok ill try- thing is i cant tolerate the high doses so i will have to split the capsule- thats what was nice about the ultrase...each cap is full of tiny nuggets and i found all i needed was 4-5 nuggets. also a lot of enzymes give me bad colon spasms but ultrase didnt so im reluctant to try another products but i guess i have no choice
  22. jasonD2
    Ive been using ultrase and it has really helped with my overall digestion and the fullness/bloating after meals. problem is AxCam Pharma (the maker) temporarily took it off the market and now i cant find it anywhere. i tried Creon which is a similar product but it gave me horrible bloating. anyone know where to get ultrase or something comparable that...

    Many of u probably heard of the new Daura gluten free beer. anyway, i tried it last night and had a euphoric experience cause i forgot how much i loved beer. however, when i got back to my hotel room an hr later i felt pins and needles in my arms and legs and also felt like my circulation was being cut off. i slept for 3 hrs and woke up at 3 and couldnt...
