  1. I have DQ8 also - what are your symptoms? I still dont know when i get glutened since i have sensitivities to so many foods but I always suspected that tingling in my legs or colon spasms are caused by gluten..but again not sure. Ive been scoped from top to bottom and had the pillcam and everything is clean but this is after being gluten free for a while
  2. Thats frustrating. And people wonder why diabetes and heart disease are an epidemic in this country. Everyone wants to eat and take quick fixes but refuse to change their lifestyles If i had an actual celiac diagnosis maybe my family would be more supportive. guess its my fault..maybe i shoulda just told them i had it so they would be more supportive...
  3. I spent 5 days with them and received nothing but constant ball busting about my dietary issues. My uncle thinks i have OCD and said i need to talk to someone..my aunt is very accomodating but whenever i discuss health issues her response is "oh please jason, your grandparents lived to their 90s and you cant worry about this all the time" Meantime my cousin...
  4. great suggestions thanks! fortunately or unfortunately i dont seem to get the violent symptoms from glutenings that a lot of people do, but i still try to play it as safe as I can. I eat out frequently but am extremely careful and always go to "safe" restaurants - im sure ive been exposed multiple times but i never really know for sure when. with my situation...
  5. Well I can't not go to family functions and am not gonna isolate myself from the world. Last night people got on my nerves but I was still able to have a great meal without any problems. I guess i just have to cool my jets and not get so worked up when people cant accommodate me
  6. I'm so tired of my family not understanding that I need to be extremely careful when I eat away from home. I am constantly getting my balls busted and its hurtful to me. Thanksgiving was great yesterday, however, I was unable to eat the turkey because it was stuffed. My aunt told her sister-in-law (the host) about my issue and if possible to make the...
  7. perhaps but this is what has worked for me
  8. Nuthin stirs things up like a potential lawsuit. if thats what it takes to get these restaurants proactive then so be it
  9. Some of you may condemn me for this but whenever I eat out at restaurants and I get any type of sub standard service or BS from wait staff I contact the general manager of the restaurants and inform them that I got violently ill from a mishap as a results of poor service. I always get a response and the managers assure me they will remedy the problem to make...
  10. Is Whole Foods brand 365 almond milk safe? it says gluten free and made in a facility that handles soy & milk but wasnt sure. i like it cause there is no carageenan
  11. was at a concert with my girlfriend tonight - she ate a pretzel and had some water. she questioned whether the water was tap or spring cause it tasted funny. at one point she told me to taste it and without thinking i picked it up and put the bottle to my mouth. at that second i knew i shouldnt have had her water so i fake sipped then wiped my mouth and...
  12. which brand? i use Trader Joes mostly- says 100% OO imported from italy
  13. Yep will eliminate and see - thanks
  14. so as many of you know ive been on a restricted diet for quite some time - had to rotate foods back and forth - had some success - some remission of symptoms, but many relapses as well. throughout this entire time the only food that i have been consistently consuming is olive oil...i cook everything with it and usually put it on all my food. is there any...
  15. My mother has had oral erosive lichen planus for about 9 months and she said its not getting better. She recently started the gluten free diet and she said its even worse now - could that actually be a good sign? perhaps its a sign that gluten was causing the problem and its her body's way of going into defense mode. anyway, aside from the diet is there...
  16. Good point! Guess there's a chance i might starve at thanksgiving...so nice when my family doesnt cooperate
  17. Ok so a bit of an awkward situation. I am having thanksgiving with my family in florida this year and the host will be my uncles brother, wife & kids. they arent really family & i was never close with them and frankly I find them to be a bit snobby and anal. Anyway, my aunt will be preparing some side dishes for me and my cousin (shes vegetarian...
  18. counseling aint gonna cut it - i just need to feel better. when i feel good my mental state is perfect
  19. thats funny & true still though i hate being "the person" who is the oddball in the group who cant eat like everyone else and need to have everything done a specific way- it make me feel like an weakling and an inferior human being
  20. i posted earlier about a ski trip that i would like to plan with my girlfriend and its triggered all these emotions about my health & my quality of life and I just feel so sad now. From the time all my health problems started in 2002 until now things have been getting progressively worse...it started with lactose intolerance, which at the time was devastating...
  21. wish it were that simple but its not unfortunately
  22. Ha- well its a bit too late for that and i dont want to be a mama's boy on top of everything else also why should i cancel the trip? why cant i go do one of my favorite activities and see one of my closest friends? my only error was most likely bring this up to my girlfriend - originally i was gonna go out by myself but her & i have been getting closer...
  23. My girlfriend and i were invited to go skiing in Colorado and stay with one of my good friends and his wife for a few days. i havent spent more than 2 days with my girlfriend in the past 4 months and there are a lot of things about me she still doesnt know...my bizarre routine with traveling and eating, all my supplements and bathroom issues. i know i cant...
  24. Hi,

    I saw a post that you are using this product. I have leaky gut and LOTs of allergies including milk, casein, lactose, etc. and cannot tolerate normal colostrum. How has this worked for you and the gut and other symptoms? Any side effects?

    Any response will be appreciated!

    Thanks,

    David

    (I cant send you a message for some reason) Please ...

  25. SO finally got my mom to go gluten-free and she is doing it but she works in the entertainment biz, is always on the go and is also 65 so adhering to a strict gluten-free diet may not be an option for her. she does not have any of the celiac genes, so it is most likely just an intolerance since her stool antibodies were slightly elevated. She has been on...
