I'm still really new with this gluten-free stuff. I've only eaten out once since I've had to go gluten-free, so I'm very ignorant about where I can go. I really, really want to take my girlfiend out for dinner on Valentine's Day, to somewhere nice, but I really do not want to spend the following week sick. Does anyone have any recommendations of nice...

I just ate there tonight, the first time I've eaten out in months, and it was great! And my tummy still loves me after! I used to hate eating there, because I always got sick, and figured they just had sanitation problems, but I <3 Outback, now~

ARCHIVED How Do You Talk To Your Relatives About Celiac Disease?
An-Onion replied to Joyous's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Yep, that was my problem. I didn't even know my problems weren't normal and or associated with stress/fatigue. I just assumed everyone had issues. Thankfully someone cared enough to point it out and recommend trying the diet for a few weeks. Otherwise I'd still be very sick and depressed, instead of finally starting to (slowly...) recover. Amazing how... -
I've heard that Pepto-Bismal helps some people, but it does not help me unfortunately. Believe me, I feel your pain.

I'm so jealous. My parents keep trying to get me to reintorduce gluten into my diet "so you will build up a resistance", despite the massive improvements to my health in the two months I've been Gluten-free Casein-free. And even with them seeing what happened when I glutened myself this weekend. :( Hopefully I'll actually stay healty enough to keep...

ARCHIVED So I Glutened Myself...
An-Onion posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Well, over the last three days, I've glutened myself twice. Once on purpose, because my curiosity got the best of me - hey, I was the kind of kid who would grab the electric fence on purpose to see what it felt like - and the second time today out of habit. I spent the day baking cookies. I first baked myself some fantastic gluten-free oatmeal cookies, and... -
ARCHIVED How To Do Objective Gluten Testing Home?
An-Onion replied to threedee's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
After you've been on the diet for a few months, buy a pack 20 of Benadryl capsules and carefully take them apart, removing the medicine. You can use an Exacto knife to cut the little tape seal thingys. Dispose of the (unneeded) medicine properly, of course. Fill 15 of them with powdered sugar. Fill the other 5 with flour. put them back together, into a bottle... -
ARCHIVED What Exactly Do Your Abdominal Pains Feel Like?
An-Onion replied to Becca78's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I do, and back pain (sometimes) and ulcer pains. Also D in under 20 minutes after eating gluten, and all the fun that comes with that. -
ARCHIVED Diet And Diagnosis
An-Onion replied to An-Onion's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Well, I've been sick for Christmas for as long as I can remember (might be just as interesting to see if that had something to do with diet?), so that wouldn't be any different, but I really do feel better, so I suppose that's good enough for now. >> Is there no Whole Foods, health food store, or pharmacy close by? Nearest Whole Foods is over... -
ARCHIVED Diet And Diagnosis
An-Onion replied to An-Onion's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Soy, hmm? I'll have to remember to record what happens when I eat it again, since I (just incidentally) have not had any that I know of since going on this diet. My college's food service does not accomodate for anyone with special diets, so that doesn't matter so much. And most of my family have remarked at how much better I look, and that I act like... -
ARCHIVED Diet And Diagnosis
An-Onion posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi everyone. Forgive me if this turns into a really long story, but I'm pretty nervous and I have a lot of questions, probably, so try to bear with me. I'm a college student - the prototypical starving type, and a science major (yay chemistry!) to boot. Even though I've always taken care of myself - eaten good foot (vegetables! \o/), been active (soccer...
