  2. i can not even explain how long i've been battling hives on my legs ONLY. no where else. took some pics and plan on heading to the derm this morning. no one knows 'whats wrong.' when i gluten free pre-pregnancy i would get these all the time. then i went on the diet, and they went away. every doctor tells me i dont have a wheat or gluten allergy. ...
  3. i think i have this, too! i look forward to hearing others' responses. how did you become diagnosed with this? my hives are so bad at the moment, i'm literally itching out of my skin.
  4. - bloating - constipation since toddlerhood - hives only on calves, and front and back of thighs ever since i can remember i can never go to the bathroom. TMI maybe, lol. i have a bowel movement about every week, week and a half. now i have a history of colon-rectal cancer in the family and would truly like to get to the bottom of my issues so that...
  5. besides a food elimination diet, is there ANY valid test that i can have done to tell whether or not i have food intolerances and what they are? i keep getting hives on my legs only and i always thought it was related to that of gluten but 'apparently' i dont have celiac. years (since toddlerhood) of constipation, and for the past 2 years - the isolated...
  6. question. i stopped eating wheat for 2 days. tonight i had wheat; 3 hours ago and now i have new hives. would it happen like that? if taking it out for only 2 days then eating it again? would it cause new hives on my thighs?
  7. i have been battling this for about 2 years now; all of a sudden i woke up covered in small itchy hives from the waist down. my butt, thighs, CALVES, covered. i had constipation (for years - i'm talking for the last 10 i only go to the bathroom 1x a week). started to take some laxatives as per my doc, and my derm put me on antibiotics for acne. WELL...
  8. i only have a rash on my calves. it itches SO badly; small red bumps then it looks like flakey around it. would i go to to a dermatologist? a few years ago when i was gluten free i only had a rash on my thighs and my derm had no clue. any ideas?
  9. no one on either side of my family has celiac.
  10. ive gone gluten free and felt great. i feel like i just want a diagnosis of SOMETHING...anything. i just would like to know what exactly (besides gluten), etc. plus i want to know for my new baby, too.
  11. would a regular general practitioner do this?
  12. my bloodwork came back negative. i think its the IGA or something? i have been eating gluten. when i was pregnant i ate it with no problems and now that i've delivered, my issues are back.
  13. well i havent posted in quite some time. i recently had a baby and now im back...and so is the bloating and the hives! quick background: before i was pregnant i had hives isolated on the legs only, chronic constipation, and would feel like i hadn't slept in days after eating wheat. when i was pregnant i was fine. no hives, able to eat whatever i wanted...
  14. i would like to make a roll that is soft, not crumby, and that no one will know are gluten free. lol. any recipes for soft dinner rolls or biscuits?
  15. what is a good whey protein that is sweetened with sugar, fructose or lohan? i am looking for one that is obviously high in protein but that also tastes good and has some fiber in it as well.
  16. so if i eat the cereal for breakfast, are their rice cakes or something i can spread peanut butter on? im trying to get a LOT of fiber in my diet.
  17. thanks everyone. i just need things that are HIGH in fiber. any other foods i should incorporate into my diet?
  18. is there a cereal or SOMETHING i can eat to help with my constipation? i want to eat a fiber one bar or bran cereal and know it has wheat in it. is there anything else i can eat?
  19. i wish i could eat fiber one to help with daily constipation. is there anything else i can eat/or do everyday?
  20. yesterday i became covered in hives. i do not know what i ate or what to do anymore. according to my allergist, i have no gluten allergy and i do not have celiac. i ate some fried cheesecake on sunday and had 1 mouthful of pasta. i dont know if thats what did it but this outbreak is horrible. it is ONLY on my legs. calves and thighs. please help...
  21. i have an OB and they told me to take benadryl. i went to the health food store and got urtica urens instead b/c i didnt want to take anything like benadryl so early on. i was thinking of maybe going to a new allergist? its just horrible and i cant believe that im so ithcy. im reading that website you gave me now. thanks for your reply.
  22. i am newly preggers; 4w5d today. i woke up yesterday feeling a bit itchy. as the day progressed it got SO MUCH worse. i haven't had an outbreak like this in so long. i honestly cant remember. i want to see a new allergist now that im pregnant. my allergist claims i am not allergic to wheat but when i eat it, i get itchy. i had one mouthful of spaghetti...
  23. i was going to make these banana bars https://www.celiac.com/articles/832/1/Black...Free/Page1.html it calls for gluten free flour mix. how would just coconut flour sound instead? would it change anything?
  24. i get pregnant looking too when i eat wheat/gluten. i feel like CRAP to be honest because i dont know WHAT IS WRONG. the hives are only on my legs and no one else has them.
