    Does anybody who is soy intolerant eat at PF Changs??? I am worried about the gluten free soy sauce and have been unwilling to venture there.

    <Snort> Hey, we still have some missing members: Psizzling Psoozie, for example. And Lissome Lisa.

    If you don't mind, I think I'll go for Naughty rather than Nasty

    Were you still on gluten at the time of your biopsy? (Not sure how long it takes to get results back in Canada.) It is possible to have both negative blood work and negative biopsy and still have gluten intolerance--in fact for every person who tests positive for celiac, it is estimated that there are two or three who are gluten intolerant but not...

    Thanks, guys. Yes, Miss Mary would have made a great psilly iffen she had ever mastered 'puter skills She embraced the Bahai faith in later years and I am sure she is where she wanted to be--her final words were "I want to die."

    Uh-oh. I have just reacted big time to green peas and have been avoiding all legumes. I think I have a problem with lectins. Looks like I should just stick with good old butter come June. And maybe actually get tested for something, perish the thought, instead of playing the elimination game, although I don't think they have a test for lectins since most...

    Sorry, Psills, I do know this is Psillyville and all, but t'is not a psilly night for this Psilly. Miss Mary passed on to a better life today T'is better she did so though, because the alternative of institutionalization would not have been at all a happy one for her. She had been hospitalized for ten days for "assessment" and the recommendations were...

    The following tests are considered to be the "full celiac panel" Anti-Gliadin (AGA) IgA Anti-Gliadin (AGA) IgG Anti-Endomysial (EMA) IgA Anti-Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA Total Serum IgA A new test, not in common usage yet, is the deaminated gliadine peptyde (DGP)

    No problems with Earth Balance soy free; don't use that coconut milk but eat their ice cream safely.

    When I was still unable to tolerate soy lecithin (never soy) I was able to eat Lindt 70% plus dark chocolate without problem. But I am not a super sensitive.

    David, everyone has their own level of sensitivity to gluten Some people react to even the tiniest speck, others can quite happily eat foods "processed on the same lines as". You are going to have to find out for yourself what your particular level of sensitivity is. It pays to be really, really strict at first, and then you can experiment a little and...

    Hello, Uma, and welcome to the forum. You will find that although most of the foods discussed here are U.S. foods, the general information is invaluable and we do try to keep abreast of new products a little bit in our little corner of the world!

    I think Janie meant to say, "will NOT show up on a blood test."

    Hey there, you posted on a question I had regarding fiber and just general digestive issues back in January.I have since had a colonoscopy and was diagnosed with microscopic colitis. I just posted a reply to the other person who posted on the topic so if you would like the update feel free to check it out. Thanks for taking the time to reply! I appreciate it! I wish you well! My be...

    Dat's just plain beeyoutiphul, Jyess. You must drink citronge more often, it really mellows you out , well that AND having all homework turned in Good luck for the phinal!!

    That has been a feature of my life since long before quitting gluten. The pounding in my head is sufficient to keep me awake and sometimes becomes very uncomfortable, like I can't bear to put my head on the pillow. However, with me this is normally accompanied by bloating which actually puts pressure on the heart, although I have had milder cases without...

    You should go through all your personal care products, soaps, shampoo, aftershave, chapstick, basically anything you put on your body. Pets are another potential source of contamination, particularly if you have a dog. Pet foods are often gluten loaded and if you can't do a gluten free food at least be scrupulous about handwashing even after petting...

    The solution to that is not to look, a technique I use all the time Mebbe I should take a peek, though Could be why I'm having a bit of a problem with my clothing Hooray, a couple of Psoozle visits; she must be feeling betta. Good to see you Suze. Now get your butt out in that lovely 50 degree brisk dog-walking weather and give the Weeze a treat...

    I had low B12, and I also had oversized red blood cells.

    Thanks all for your opinions and help. I think I shall probably get the KitchenAid KSM150. Quite a bit more expensive here for the 220 volt, but at least I can pick up some attachments this summer (extra bowl, etc. unless the airline limits our luggage back from 2 bags to one).

    I think your situation is probably quite unique. I have not had experience with DH and immunosuppressants, but I was on Plaquenil for my psoriasis and RA at the time I went gluten free. Sadly, the Plaquenil made the psoriasis worse (I had been warned it could), but six months after going gluten free I had stool testing and my IGA was 145. I would think...

    So glad to hear you are making progress, Jason. That is good news. I have a feeling that if you can get rid of those bugs that are plaguing you, you will be a new man! Keep up the good work.
