    It took FOUR years of severe itching b4 being diagnosed with celiac disease and the allergist who found DH, said he had seen similarities in textbooks. As a result, I don’t put a lot of faith in dermatologists. And it took well over 6 months on a strict gluten-free diet for my skin to calm down.

    Am I correct in saying that open-capsule Budesonide Is the same as Entocort EC?

    I too have microscopic colitis and NOTHING has worked. For a short time, Metamucil (fiber supplement that bulks up the stool) helped for awhile. Do you have Citrucel in your country? I’m going to try that. I too tried Entocort and Welchol and it didn’t help much. I’m DESPERATE. I have more fecal accidents than I can recount.

    Is dorzolamide-timolol eye drops for Glaucoma gluten free?

    When I was pregnant with my son, I was undiagnosed. My son was born with a severe cleft lip and palate. Cleft is now thought to be caused by a lack of folic acid. Of course I was taking all pre-natal vitamins but it is my feeling that my body wasn't absorbing the folic acid - thus, severe cleft issues. Now I have severe osteoporosis and I believe, as do my...

    So glad to read a positive report about a river boat cruise in Russia. I do note that these posts are rather old. Does anyone have updated information on the availability of gluten-free in Russia - specifically Moscow and St. Petersburg? I've had one tour company tell me that gluten-free food may not be available, even in the big cities. I'd appreciate...

    Hi all, I just returned from my trip to Ireland. I am gluten-free (very sensitive) and I ATE my way through the country. It was fabulous. gluten-free bread was offered everywhere as was soup - one of my favorites. I was also able to get gluten-free fish and chips in Dublin - Beshoffs - and Killarney. Many people seem to know about Beshoffs but I've didn...

    I HAD to attend a dinner at OG a few years ago and the only foods offered were steak and steamed brocolli. How BORING.....OG is DEFINITELY not on my list.

    ARCHIVED Larry's Subs

    USF1970 posted a topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    As history, I 'discovered' that Larry's Subs in Savannah, GA was offering gluten-free sub rolls and they were DELICIOUS. I enjoyed the bread along w/the gluten-free meats for about a month but last week I went in and was told the gluten-free rolls were discontinued b/c there's wasn't the demand. To the best of my knowledge, Larry's Subs doesn't have a FB...

    Wow, WOW, WOW.....Larry's is now offering gluten-free rolls along w/their gluten-free meat. DELICIOUS! I just had a nice warm sub & the bread was faulous & it didn't fall apart. Wonderful ex- perience in Savannah, GA!!!

    I am sorry to report that the ONLY Outback Steakhouse in the COUNTRY that offered gluten-free 'blooming onions' (at the Roswell, GA store) is no longer doing so. FORTUNATELY I called before I drove the 40 miles to get there and yep, they offer them no longer. Something about a filtration system, etc and they 'don't want us to get sick w/contaminated flour...

    BTW, the biscuit recipe was not on the package but I used the recipe I found on Pamela's website - EAZY-PEAZY......
  13. USF1970
    GREAT, GREAT, GREAT. I made these tonight and they were nice and light and EASY. Thank you. They still had a bit of an odd taste to them but nothing that would keep me from making them again and again and again. THANK YOU.....
  14. USF1970
    wow, wow, WOW......just returned from Alligator Soul restaurant here in Savannah. We visited during restaurant week and WOW. They had..... (wait for it, wait for it) GLUTEN FREE BREAD. I was stunned beyond belief. And the dirty martini wasn't shabby either. Heading back as soon as I can!!!! I've lived in Savannah for over 26 years and this is the first time...
  15. USF1970
    YES......I'm still looking for a good biscuit recipe. I'll run right out tomorrow and get the baking mix you recommend. Thanks SO much......
  16. USF1970
    Thank you SO much. I'm very sorry it's taken me this long to reply. My granddaughter was born on 12/27 with a RAGING infection (exact quote) and was in NICU for 12 days so I'm just now getting to this. I've seen the Cup4Cup flour and know how expensive it is but I'd pay just about ANYTHING for decent biscuits. So, you think this gluten-free flour is worth...
  17. USF1970
    Nope, mine either. Take a look at other responses I rec'd from a similar post last December. I'm going to try DB12's recommendations. Are you from the south? I MISS my biscuits.....

    Hi VeggieGal - You responded to my request regarding biscuit recipes. Thank you....I've tried to respond to your post but keep getting an error so I'm sending my reply this way: "Are you from the UK by any chance? Here in the US, we refer to biscuits as a type of roll - unsweet. I believe in the UK, biscuits are what we call cookies. At any rate, many...

    I've been trying to reply to a post but keep getting this error msg - "The number of opening quote tags does not match the number of closing quote tags." Does anyone know what this means? Thanks as always for any help provided.
  20. USF1970
    Thank you for your very detailed message. I am painfully aware that one must be a chemist to bake gluten-free......I've had so many failures w/such costly ingredients that I've just about given up. BUT......my yearning for tasty biscuits will probably override my profound frustration. I'm going to try this w/the Namaste all-purpose flour mix and see how...
  21. USF1970
    Thanks SO much for your swift reply. This recipe looks easier than the other I found. And I'm like you - I can't do dairy either. But my question remains - can I use an all-purpose gluten-free flour rather than the flours specifically identified in the recipe? Again, many, many thanks. I'm a southern girl..........can't live w/no biscuits.
  22. USF1970
    I just came across this recipe - it sure doesn't look easy but since I'm desperate for biscuits, I'll give it a try. Quick question.......must I use the soy and brown rice flours or can I use a general gluten-free flour mix? Of course, corn starch isn't a problem but I gave up having so many different flours a long time ago. I'm only feeding myself and...
  23. USF1970
    I've tried using the gluten-free Bisquick to make biscuits........whoever heard of using eggs in biscuits. They were NOT good. I'm from the south and need a decent biscuit recipe. Quick question..........can gluten-free flour go bad if it's been in the freezer for over two years? Mine doesn't taste like 'freezer burn' but the taste is just awful. Can...

    Help Elisabeth Hasselbeck sell books maybe?
  25. USF1970
    I am always THRILLED when the public is made aware of this debilitating disease. That's why I made a special point of watching his segment on celiac disease. And he made one important point and that is, gluten is in EVERYTHING. However, the rest of the segment was very misleading and he never once mentioned the difficulties of being on a gluten-free diet...
