    Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

    I am so sorry I must have missed your reply in my email emails. Thanks for the extra information on the food help programs. It is now May and I have gotten quite a bit more educated on the foods I can and can not eat. This has made the challenge much more manageable. I finally say my GI doctor again and he had told me that I did not show any positive biopsy...

    I am just about a month on the anti fungal medication and two different pro biotic culture supplements. I have a long way to go but already I am feeling a little stronger with more energy. That could be from staying on the gluten free diet and taking the special vitamins I have been in addition to what I am doing above. Good Luck and hang in there...

    I was informed that Nitrates in meat contain a small percentage of gluten. Is that why they say to eat clean meats? And what are clean meats exactly? I am still new to the diet and am having some difficulties being sure I am staying gluten free. I have not read anywhere that the nitrates in meat are a problem. Nor have I seen it on the list of forbidden...

    It was potassium I was so dangerously low in that caused me to be admitted. I also had a severe sinus infection on top of that. a month of oral antibiotics did not clear it up. The first time to the hospital was for a staph and e coli infection in my sinus area that made me critically ill. My doctor told me at that time that I could have not been able...

    Many thanks to everyone that took the time to answer my questions. All of your responses were very helpful for me. One more thing though, I am guessing that most of the family's have all started eating the same way am I right about that? If I am this is my other sticky situation regarding the diet. I have a husband and two teenage boys that are not in any...

    I did not find a correct place to post this question so I placed it here. I am just starting my first month on the gluten free diet and the food and supplements have cost me over $200.00 in approximately two weeks. Could anyone tell me approximately how much per month it does cost on average to be on this diet? I need an estimated total to take to a meeting...

    Respira, twinflame2 here, I was just wondering since you were diagnosed with arthritis so many years ago has it affected your spine? I mean do you have degeneration in that area because of the disease? I sure do! My spine seems to be very unstable and pops or cracks from top to bottom. You said staying on the gluten free diet has stopped your pain from...

    Thank You Nikky, and happygirl for the information you provided for me. It helped me out and I saved the lists to my computer for later reference. I was reading about all the different types of substitutes for wheat flour used in baking various types of gluten-free foods. I am still a little unsure about just what to use for say basic stuff like coating...

    I would like to thank everyone that responded to my previous posts on this site. All your suggestions were very helpful and informative. The additional input was right on target and I will forever be grateful that there are people that there are on this web site. The support is beyond anything I was expecting. I do have to agree that I must have an...

    Thank You so much for your help. I was wondering is there a blood test that can determine what vitamin deficiencies a person does have. This would certainly help in targeting exactly what is needed. Also if the body cant absorb certain vitamins are there supplements that are developed that a person with this inability could take that would work.

    Sorry I wanted to add a couple of things I forgot to mention. The e-coli got into my sinuses from cleaning my pet rats cage. I found out that their feces becomes airborne when dry during the process of cleaning the cage. I was already in a weakened state with the Staph or (MRSA) infection. I have had bacterial infections that are listed as the common types...

    Re: Please Help post! I don't think I explained myself clearly enough. I am and have been taking very good vitamins form from a local health food store that are a capsule filled with liquid vitamins. And I still can not absorb things like one of the B family, potassium, calcium etc. They gave me injections of potassium through my IV this last time during...

    My biopsy's and blood tests came back negative. But my symptoms are so severe I am having a hard time understanding how this could be. I can't seem to get over bacterial infections that end up developing in my sinus area. Is it possible to be so damaged in the intestinal tract that you can not absorb antibiotic medications well enough to get well? I respond...
