  5. i am sorry i started such a ruckus! i am just not understanding what it is that is wrong with me since this all happened out of nowhere! i have always had constipation issues (ever since i was a child) and then began becoming bloated for about 2 years. i always thought it was a pre-menstrual thing but it wasn't. i went to my 'regular doc' and he said...
  6. going next week finally for my endoscopy to test for celiacs after a gluten allergy came up in my bloodwork. if i dont test positive for celiac, is there something else that the endoscopy could 'show?' perhaps if something else is wrong? could the tell from the endoscopy? thanks again. here are my symptoms: - bloating (had a bagel and...
  7. no, i haven't been diagnosed as a celiac. i have a gluten allergy and have an appt for an endoscopy in 2 weeks to see if i do. i went off gluten for a month and felt great; stomach and my skin cleared up. he told me he wants me to eat gluten but when i eat things with gluten i generally get hugely bloated and covered in itchy hives. i had pizza and...
  8. i ordered a pizza yesterday from a pizza place (i knew i shouldn't have but i did). anyway nothing happenend to me! my stomach had slight cramps but it only lasted a second and it went away. what does this mean? why didnt i get sick?
  9. went to a function yesterday where we had a breakfast. i ate 2 pieces of quiche (no crust) and some fruit. i do not think the egg quiche had flour in it but within an hour my legs were covered in itchy hives! i tested positive for a wheat allergy and egg white allergy. could this be celiac or have something to do with these food allergies? thanks...
  10.

  11. i was making an almond pie crust - the one made with the cornflakes but i cant find cornflakes anywhere! i have almond flour/meal. whats the best way to make this crust sans cornflakes? i want to make them tonight (the dough that is) and fill the pies tomorrow.
  12. thanks everyone!!!! that last one was the one i got the ingredients for. i didnt THINK to even freeze it!!!! AHH! so freeze it completely THEN fill and cook it right?
  13. i was looking for an easy, yet yummy recipe for almond pie crust for a pumpkin pie. also, can you help me with how to cook it too? do i cook the crust, then add the filling? etc. i planned on using the recipe (from the recs on the board) on the libby canned pumpkin. thanks!
  14. can i just eat a lot of gluten two days before? i felt so sick after the bagel from friday. constantly bloated and constipated. i also broke out on my face which i seem to think is a result from the gluten or wheat.
  15. this is my first thanksgiving gluten free and i would like to make a cornbread stuffing w/apples and sausage. any recipes?
  16. is there anything i can do? i think i am constipated as well and i took mirilax for 2 days now and i still haven't been able to go to the bathroom. this is allll from eating a bagel on friday!
  17. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!
  18. i was wondering if there was a 'shopping' guide of things we can or can not eat. for example...when i go grocery shopping i get confused b/c i know i cant have gluten, wheat, barley, oats but i also know there are hidden things in items that i can not have. anyone have a guide or list they bring with them?
  19. wondering if the ingredient, CORNSTARCH is ok to consume? thanks.
  20. thank you. i just need to get rid of the bloating, constipation and the cystic pimples once again!!!
  21. my whole life i lived w/o knowing i had a gluten allergy. (or celiac, i dunno). now at 30 i decided to get some bloodword done to see if i had a food intolerance, IBS or whatever causes my bloating or constipation. can these thing just come on, all of a sudden?
  22. i dont really know. it was my regular doc. he tested me for food allergies b/c i was always constipated, etc. he then told me that i should try a gluten free diet. i then went to a gastro doc and he orderd some different tests but i am not getting them done until 3 days before the endo.
  23. thanks for the hug. my questions is though - he wants me to eat gluten from now until december 7th! i dunno if i can handle it for that long!!! plus now i have a giant zit and i *think* its b/c of gluten!
  24. had a bagel today and my stomach is HUGE and bloated! anyone think it can be celiac? my skin is also going down the tubes. i have a huge cystic pimple to rid myself of and i feel horrible. could i feel like crap for only having gluten back in my diet for 1 week? (my doc wanted me to eat gluten for a blood test/endo)
  25. it wasnt the GI who did the bloodwork. it was my regular doc and i said i had a lot of constipation and bloating. he did a test for some food allergies and a wheat allergy came up. isnt that gluten?
