ARCHIVED Vietnamese Spring Roll Wrappers - Gluten Free!
sister golden hair replied to lucia's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Does anyone know if Blue Dragon Spring Wrappers are gluten free? I have looked at the label but they don't say. I tried to find them online but their website on their pkg kept coming up with restaurants, tattoo shops, etc. Not sure if I want to try them in case they are cross contaminated, you know? Thanks! -

ARCHIVED Allergy Shots Anyone?
sister golden hair posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I went to an allergist to see if I had enviromental allergies as I am always congested, extremly fatigued. I take all kinds of supplements but haven't been tested for food allergies like dairy, soy, etc. They said I was allergic to mold and dustmites. The doctor wants to put me on shots, an inhaler, and nasel spray. Does anyone else out there have an opinion... -
ARCHIVED Opposite Iron Issue!
sister golden hair replied to Stellar003's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi, I have also had lots of problems with low vit. D, can't seem to store any iron, also very low potassium. I feel like a zombie most of the time. One day lots of energy and the next day very wore out. I guess it comes down to absorbtion of nutrients. -

I thought I had been diagnosed with celiac back in dec. of 07. I wondered why when I would go to the doctors RN. for my check ups, ( also had other problems ) she would say, so have you been diagnosed with celiac. I thought that was a little wierd. I asked her if she could write me a letter to my insurance co. to see if I could help with groceries, as our...

ARCHIVED Can Taking "lactaid" Etc Harm You If You Are Not Lactose Intolerant?
sister golden hair replied to toomuchagony's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Last I knew when I went to buy Lactaid it contained gluten in the ingrediants. Also the beano i bought didn't list gluten on the box where the ingredients are listed but on the inside of the bottle after I had taken 2 pills I noticed the wheat listing. I too had cramps. I guess we really have t be careful and read everything! Sistergoldenhair -

ARCHIVED I Have Finally Decided To Supplement
sister golden hair replied to confused's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
hi paula, sistergoldenhair here. Who told you to take all those supplements? No offense it just seems to be a strange combination of things. Be careful of acidic things. If you are taking the apple cider vinegar for your stomach and it doesn't seem to be working, maybe try a good enzyme supplement to break down the foods that you eat. Also are you on a gluten... -
I have been on a gluten free diet for close to 5 years now and was diagnosed in Dec. 07. I find i gain weight much easier by eating gluten free foods . Does anyone know if there is a special diet for celiacs to use as a guidline such as carb counting or calories. I really don't snack much and am a very healthy eater. It is very hard to get my weight down...

ARCHIVED Curious!
sister golden hair posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I was very curious if anyone here has had to get dentures because of the celiac disease. I have gone for so long without a diagnosis that I may have to get dentures. I was wondering if anyone knew if the glue you use to hold them in is gluten free. I sure could use help with this one. ... -
ARCHIVED Anyone Have Trouble With Amy's Frozen Food?
sister golden hair replied to dandelionmom's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have also had problems with some of the Amy's frozen dinners. They state gluten free on the front but on the back side have an allergy statement which states that the product has been made in a factory which processes other wheat products. So you really take a chance when a company states that. I had purchased some vegtable patties from Amy's and didn... -

ARCHIVED Miss My Lipstick
sister golden hair replied to sister golden hair's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hi erika, thanks for the info, I sure could use more on the other companies you know about. How about Loreal, any luck with them, that's my favorite and i couldn't seem to find out online from them and no phone# on their packaging. I was told the company called lavera is supposed to be gluten free. I know they sell their cosmetics at the Wegmans that i shop... -
ARCHIVED So Frustrated Here
sister golden hair replied to wowzer's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
I also have this problem. I have just started to go to a doctor and we are going to set up an appt. for a biopsy near the rash. This will be a sure test for celiac I am told. Lots of things set it off such as iodine (salty foods) and also in my case too much sugar. I have found using a all cotton tampon with all natural ingrediants has helped with the... -

ARCHIVED Miss My Lipstick
sister golden hair posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I went to the food co-op yesterday and was looking for a gluten free lipstick. The sales clerk who helped me with this showed me a lipstick which on the ingredients listed wheat germ oil. I questioned this and she said " don't worry, the sales person said they have taken out the gluten from the wheat protein and so it is safe." Can anyone tell me if this...
