    Open Original Shared Link Also has gluten-free beer, but I don't think they ship. They are located in the NY area from what I can see. =) Deanna

    Well, it seems it is time for trails like crazy in our family. We have had soooo much junk hitting us already, and now we had the worst of the worst. My mother found out today that is has breast cancer. She is my only parent left, and I am too young to be losing parents as it is. I know this is not a cancer group, but does anyone know of any support groups...

    ARCHIVED Outback

    I have eaten at Outback like 2 or 3 times since the diet started (we have one right down the road about 2 miles). It is wonderful. The staff has always been good about knowing what I was talking about, and the brownie is awesome! Texas Road House, which is my favorite - only farther away than Outback, has a gluten-free menu, and Lone Star Steak House does...

    I have never actually been diagnosed. Celiac actually first came to me from a cousin that is gluten intolerant. I started researching and I believe celiac disease is what I have. I have had all the typical IBS diagnosis, and doctors that won't listen. I haven't had a problem with acid reflux until I went gluten-free (except when I was pregnant). Before...

    Hi all... A friend of mine is making "Swamp Gas" for a PartyLite party she is having on friday (I jokingly told her she was trying to get everyone drunk enough to buy a bunch of stuff). She was going to look for a gluten-free vodka for me, so that I would be able to try some. She has found that every kind she looks at says "distilled with grains" or something...

    My hair has been falling out for at least 6 years. I think it has gotten slightly better since my gluten-free diet started a month and a half ago. After all this falling out, it has never started getting bald...even though I feared it would. I had also found that dying it made it happen more. Keeping it has healthy as possible (pre-natal vitamins are great...

    I love your icon! I am gonna work on getting one of my own. I go back and forth with weight. I will lose around 5 pounds then gain it back. I really thought I would lose a lot, since I used to eat like a pig before going gluten-free. My weight has always been weird. I have stayed at 115 for the last 6 years, except when pregnant of course. I should be over...

    Hello all... I just had a few questions about what happened to you all in your body when you went gluten-free. I have been on the diet around a month and a half now. I know that most times I feel better, if I could just stop screwing up (but I am getting better at it)! I have started getting heart burn a lot, and it seems to kinda go up into my throat...

    Thank you Dana. I just don't want to appear like a know-it-all. I only know a lot about a lot of stuff, because I am a walking issue... lol... But, seriously, I like to help other people, and this board has helped me soooo much that I just want to give back. So, when I saw "co-dependency" I kinda got excited. Thank you all for being here. Deanna

    I could eat whatever I wanted before and not gain weight, being gluten-free I go up and down in a range of 5 pounds. I thought I would lose a lot more concidering I am starving half the time, and I used to eat soooo much. It's weird. Deanna

    I'm sorry...but what a dork! I wouldn't go back to that doctor. Especially after the "IBS" thing! Deanna

    Co-dependency has a lot more other things to do with it than just feeling like you "can't live without someone". It is a very messed up psychological way of thinking that is caused from a disfunctional family life in your childhood (and was first found in families of alcoholics). I know this because I have been going through recovery for co-dependency for...

    Well, I won't be much help here...but... I have heard that ringing in the ears is caused by a vitamin deficency. But, alas, I don't remember which vitamin. I know, I know, I am sooooooo helpful! Deanna

    Hi, it's Deanna, and I decided I would share too. I am 27 (very soon to be 28, eek!) and I live in Mesa, Az. Oh boy is it hot and humid here right now during monsoon! Anyway...I have two children a girl who is 9, and a boy who is 3. And, I also have a wonderful husband. We are very involved in church activities, I love to read, swim, eat (haha), listen to...

    Anna, I am an undiagnosed celiac, but have been on the diet for a little over a month now. I started re-searching the disease when my cousin came for a visit and I found out she was gluten intolerant. All her problems before going gluten free were like mine! My problem is when I tell people I don't eat gluten, and then explain why. Then they ask...

    I am also in the valley, so if anyone finds a good doctor please send me their way! Deanna

    This is alittle off subject, but just alittle. I got an E-mail from my gluten intolerant cousin yesterday and she says she takes "Pepogest" by Nature's Way everyday. It is basically just a peppermint oil, and it helps her all around and makes things easier to digest. It may even help with accidental gluten intake, I will have to ask her. She also takes "Flax...

    I had shingles at about 14 or 15 years old; I don't know if that would be concidered young to have them, or not? I also have side pain, but it is on my left side, and it gets really bad sometimes when I lay on that side. In fact, most of the time I cannot lay on that side. Weird stuff. Deanna

    I have been on the diet for a month now, but was taking communion and messed up a few times the first couple of weeks. I missed a weekend of church, so I actually went 2 weeks with no gluten at all. Then this weekend (on saturday night) I had communion again (afterwards found out they keep gluten free wafers for celiacs in a back room...yay!!!). I didn't...

    Cancer does not actually become painful until the last stages (although there are usually other signs of it), if it were cancer you would not have had pain for so long. I know this from my Mother being a nurse, and having older family members that were so anti-doctor, that they waited until they were in pain to go to the doctor. When they found out they had...

    I have always used ibuprofen for cramps, and that helps a lot. I also take lots of hot baths, they relieve the pain - until you get out at least.

    My periods are always right on schedule, but they last 7-8 days! I have always had major cramps, and I have had hot flashes around period time since I got pregnant with my first child at 18 years old (people don't often believe me since this is something that most women don't get until menopause). I had to have pre-cancerous cells taken from my cervix 2 years...

    Here is a yummy (and easy!) recipe that has been in my family for years. If you are careful and check all ingredients you put into it, you can have a great gluten free dinner. Pizza Fondue 1 lb. hamburger 2 tbs. butter 21 oz. pizza sauce 1 tbs. corn starch 1 tsp. anise seed (optional: I never use this in mine, but it is on the recipe) 1 1/2 tsp...

    I don't know what it means, since I am undiagonosed also, but I have been fighting a fungus under my left big toe for 2 years now (I think it is finally going away, yay!), and as long as I can remember I have had weak thin fingernails. Deanna
