    Yes Mcdonalds fries are gluten free if they are cooked in a seperate fryer then the gluten stuff. Every Mcdonalds is different so It does not hurt to ask them when you go in. From experience, depending on the location, and how busy they are so I always ask if they are using a seperate fryer for their fries. They are not coated in flour. Enjoy!

    Personally I won't touch anything that has been cooked in the same fryer as non gluten free stuff. I consider it basically like having a gluten free food with breadcrumbs sprinkled on it. Normally if the fryers are shared its a horrible idea because the stuff is usually breaded. Always check that it is a dedicated fryer and you will be safe. Krista

    So you actually reacted to these vitamins too?? I know that I have never been able to handle oats and I am definatly not willing to try while pregnant. I thought I was doing my body and my baby a favor by getting these expensive whole food vitamins which were gluten free but obviously not. I am going to try and return them even thought they are now opened...

    ARCHIVED Appendicitis?

    KristaleeJane replied to klslynn's topic in Doctors

    Hello I was DX with celiac in Mar-08, and came down with appendicitis in May 08. It was first detected there was something wrong on an ultrasound and then they did a cat scan to confirm it. The surgeon said you sure don't have the symptoms of appendicitis but we will go ahead with surgery anyway. Sure enough it was appendicitis and I was lucky it didn...

    Welcome Canadians I am living on Vancouver Island, I am originally from PEI. I have found this website very helpful especially in the beginning. I was diagnosed in Apr 2008, and have been strictly gluten free ever since, couldn't have it any other way. My sister got tested after I was diagnosed and she also has celiac disease and is Type 1 diabetic, she...

    Hi I just went to this website and did the whole consultation thing. I am so happy they are actually asking for input. Anyone else in Canada should definatly check this out and take the time to put your comments and suggestions in, that is what they are looking for is our feedback. Hopefully that will get these changes into effect really soon. Thanks...

    You could try tums if your simply just having indigestion. But maybe there is some CC that your are not aware of, are you making these foods at home. Or the cheese could be irratating your stomach depending on how sensitive you are to dairy. I would avoid these foods and than reintroduce one at a time to figure it out. To me sounds like CC. Good Luck

    I agree that it should not be labeled gluten free, I also bought and had to return it after having a reaction, but I am very sensitive. I believe that even the smallest amount of gluten can harm you. I have been drinking Ryza Rice Milk, which is Gluten Free. Its really good and no Reaction.

    If you have cloudy urine all the time then I would have a urinalysis done, this can mean infection and/or bacteria. Healthy urine is clear and pale yellow. To have cloudy urine once and a while is normal but not all the time.

    I also was wondering if there was anything like this available in Canada, it sounds great!! Hopefully if there isn't there will be soon!

    I am sorry, not familiar with the term RCD?

    Hi there, It sounds like you are having a lot of issues already, you can find great information at the following website. Click on it, or copy and paste into your browser. Good luck Open Original Shared Link

    First of all, eating gluten for 3 days will not cause your tests to come back positive, unfortunately. Depending on how long you have been gluten free will also be a factor in the damage to your villi when the biopsy is done. Your blood work was negative because you are on a gluten free diet. You have to be consuming gluten for at least 3-6 weeks or longer...

    I took accutane twice, once before I developed celiac, and then after too. I am not sure if I believe that there is a link between the two. It is a possiblity though, my sister also took it and we are the only people in our family that has celiac disease which is a little strange. It did clear up acne though but can you imagine if it was the cause. Scary...

    Hello Just wondering if I can get some input on what people have been using for acne while pregnant, I am only 7 weeks, and I am starting to break out all along my hairline, and my chest. i have always struggled with my skin, finally had it under control but not now since being pregnant. I am not sure whats safe to use now that I am preggers. I use Tea Tree...

    Hello. We tried for about a year before I knew I had Celiac Disease without any luck. After being diagnosed I waited around 6 months and began trying again. It took 17mths after going gluten free. I don't believe I could of gotten pregnant if I had of continued on eating gluten. My body was so sick, my periods were very irregular. After going gluten free...

    I agree, I will be returning them.. Thanks for your input!!

    I emailed the company with my concern about oats in the Vitamin Hello, I recently purchased the Multi for Two Prenatal vitamin. I have celiac disease and noticed they are gluten free. But once I read the Food complex I noticed oats were included in the ingrediets. I looked into it and this is what I found out: Most oats have been contaminated with some...

    I picked some new ones up at Costco, they sound like the ones your talking about. So I think I will email the company to find out how much oats is in them for starters. Thanks for the info and congrats.

    Hello, I think that if you have these symptoms that you described than yes you should have been tested a long time ago, even if you don't have celiac disease than you can at least rule it out. It can often be mistakin for IBS, in fact that is what I was diagnosed with early in my twenties, and put on antiacid type medication also, my stomach got so big...

    Hi I just found out I am pregnant, about 5.5 weeks only. I went to my local health food store and bought the most expensive prenatal because it said gluten free on it. New Chapter Organics Multi for Two and it also contains a Whole food supplement in it. But when I got home I noticed that in the whole food ingredients, Oats is listed. I know there is...

    Update: I bought the coolers (motts ceasar) and had no problems afterwards. Just thought I would update anybody who is a fan of the drink "ceasars"
  24. KristaleeJane
    Ok so I need some advise I don't drink a lot but when I do I have been buying the gluten free beer which is so expensive, like $25.00 for a six pack, So I really like ceasars but I usually buy the stuff and make them myself or at a bar ask for them without worchesterhsire sauce. ( I have the gluten free worchestershire sauce for home use). I noticed Motts...

    I felt the same way once I went gluten free. I was expecting to feel better within weeks. But at times I also felt that I was getting worse in some ways. Once I hit the 6 month mark, the changes really started to show, my energy came back, I didn't have brain fog, and I almost always felt good. Hang in there, and stay as gluten free as possible. The longer...
