    Being Compared

    Scott Adams commented on Melissa Mandrick's blog entry in Melissa

    They are different things, but before general celiac awareness many people just said I have a "wheat allergy" when going to restaurants because it was a lot easier than trying to give a lecture to a waiter about celiac disease. For better or worse, this approach sometimes worked better, especially back in the 90's, because then the waiter took it far more...

    I can't speak for to the gluten-free status of this product, but can say that it likely contains all sorts of ingredients to create the "perfect" taste they are looking for. It might be best to go old school and get a bottle of Smirnoff Vodka (made from corn), and mix your own version of this type of drink. All you'd need is seltzer water and whatever...

    A hernia would not likely be related to celiac disease. I've not seen any studies on a correlation between the two. It is possible that people with hernias may end up getting screened for celiac disease more than those without, however I think it's a separate, unrelated issue.

    There isn’t a cure for aids, but there is a treatment drug therapy for it. Researchers are working on treatments for all autoimmune diseases.

    This might be helpful: https://food.unl.edu/documents/GFbaking.pdf You can see where there is a flour mix with equal parts sorghum, potato or corn starch and tapioca flour.

    Here is the original recipe: Bette Hagman’s Four Flour Bean Mix FORMULA – 4 cups 2/3 part garfava bean flour 1/2 part sorghum flour 1 part cornstarch 1 part tapioca flour Is there a reason you want to substitute that flour? I've heard of people using navy bean flour.

    I've NEVER had follow up care of any kind unless I more or less demanded it. I have what is considered a very good Kaiser health care plan.

    Since you are new to this be sure that her diet is 100% gluten-free, and avoid all cross-contamination if you or others in your family are not gluten-free. Gluten is a hidden ingredient in many foods, so it's important that you fully understand how to ensure her diet is not still causing her pain. This article may be helpful:

    I doubt that a spray cleaning product would include any gluten in it, because gluten is a sticky substance that is hard to clean. It's more likely that the chemicals like the propellant and other cleaning chemicals led to you feeling that way. It's best to use all natural cleaning products, and if you don't be sure to open up windows and turn on fans.

    No, it lists wheat flour as an ingredient: https://www.heinz.co.uk/soup/classic/product/100185200098/cream-of-chicken

    I don't have an opinion on and MD vs ND, but I also just got an email from imaware, who does at home celiac blood testing kits, and they are offering $20 off through the end of today for celiac disease screening kits: https://imaware.health. So $79 for a screening, which would almost beat my co-pay for such tests.

    Your symptoms certainly sound consistent with celiac disease and dermatitis herpetiformis (DH), which is the skin condition associated with celiac disease. @cyclinglady is right, you should request that your doctor give you a blood panel for celiac disease. You also may want to go to a dermatologist to be test for DH if that's possible. Either condition would...

    I've only used a bread machine a few times as a test for a product review, but the machine I did use had a detailed manual with it that included how to use it. Any chance yours has a manual that covers this in more detail?

    IBS was one of the first things I got diagnosed with before they found out I had celiac disease. Once I discovered that IBS was really a description of symptoms and not a disease I continued searching for the real cause of my issues.
