    The funny part about it is I have been eating those things without problem for two years. I am not exactly at the beginning. I do tend to steer clear of beans (not green, but dried) and do not eat refried beans for example. But I eat broccoli and cauliflower quite often with no after effects. So I can't think why I would suddenly react so violently. ...

    It is also a good idea at first to avoid lactose (milk, ice cream, cream) because the lactase to digest that is produced at the tips of the villi in your small intestine which are normally damaged by the gluten. You may be able to add this back in later when you have healed. I can tolerate milk in my capucchinos now If you can do it, a gluten free...

    Twice in the last 4-6 weeks I have experienced the following: Felt fine during the day, eating gluten free of course, not eating out, no cc possibilities. Ate a normal evening meal (we do normally eat quite late), gone to bed and awoken with the most horrible bloating and gassy pain under the breastbone, and very rapid and pounding heartbeat (missing...

    I really think it would be an eye-opener for most of them

    Two years. Glutened three times, each time by meds (you'd think I'd learn by now!) Have kidney problems; believe they were caused by meds too Never cheated. 60's.

    ARCHIVED Frustrated

    mushroom replied to minton's topic in Doctors

    I think that part of the problem with medical school training is that doctors are not trained to think of their patients as thinking human beings! They are told to "go see the gall bladder in Room 203", or "check the lungs in Room 99" without a thought that there are living, thinking, feeling human beings attached to these organs who have their own take...

    Hi Kathylea. No need to be confused, but we can help you better if you tell us a little more about what you find the most confusing and what information we need to provide. There are lots of threads started by newbies, and if you start reading there they will be a help to you, but we are happy to provide specific information you request. It can all be...

    Jason, this post is not meant to kick a fella when he's down, but it is written from the heart of one who has responded to many of your posts in many of your threads, and I must say you are one of our most prolific thread starters . I keep hoping to see one of three things from you. The first is a positive post of something good that has happened...

    They start with a blood test to see if you are RA sero positive or negative, but just because you're negative doesn't mean there isn't something arthritic going on. I am RA negative but have psoriatic arthritis which is psoriasis in conjunction with the arthritis, but a different form of RA. I was first diagnosed with polymylalgia rheumatica, then RA and...

    Dear halfsickofshadows: welcome to the forum and to people who understand what you are going through. First questions first: do you have a primary care physician and health insurance? Can you ask her to run a celiac blood test panel on you, right away, before you stop eating gluten, because it's important to be eating gluten up until the time you...

    Yeah, but Judee, ARE YOU GOING THROUGH PHREZNO??? Inquiring minds want to know, especially the one who will have to shampoo her carpet unless you promise not to look down

    ARCHIVED Olive Garden

    mushroom replied to MKat's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    Well, at least Olive Garden is the first Italian style restaurant i have heard of, touting a gluten free menu, that actually realizes that it is possible to serve gluten free pasta. That is a big leap forward. Now, if they have worked out their cc issues, this could be a GOOD thing. I would certainly go talk to them about how they prepare it.

    There appear to be two types of digestive enzymes: those with pancreatin--mainly amylase, protease, lactase, lipase,, some with sucrase and cellulase, and then some also contain papain and bromelain, or these are a separate supplement. I have taken the whole lot at various times, either the first or second group, or in one capsule they were in combination...

    Other posters have reported initially being extremely hungry and going on an eating binge for a while. You should get over it soon.

    Another option: Thorne Research's DIPAN-9 500 mg. pure pancreatin.

    ARCHIVED Dr. Kenneth Fine (enterolab)

    mushroom replied to Joe G's topic in Doctors

    From what I understand, in Europe there are more than one additional genes that are considered to be celiac genes but are not recognized as such in the U.S. Maybe only Europeans get celiac from these genes?? Nora would have answers for you on this, I would think.

    I'm so sorry, Soozle, you and I were squiggling and getting emoticonly busted alongside each other, think the board kept getting us mixed up, so my post came out before I had read yours. You must get yourself a good doc, hopefully the Armour one, and get your physical self straightened out and then the rest, I am sure, will take care of itself. You...

    Why wasn't this thread here yesterday when I was looking for pizza topping ideas (first post-tomato sauce pizza). Dh wanted pepperoni on it, but I put pesto, mozzarella, fresh tomato slices, shaved parmesan and fresh basil.

    For some, the effects of a glutening can last for a week or more, so yes, your response is normal. Hope you feel better soon.
