    Open Original Shared Link this is about malnourishment and iq which I guess would pertain to celiac disease since it stops absorption Open Original Shared Link this is about autistic children Open Original Shared Link this is about psych patients most of what I can find says that the research isn't conclusive

    ok here is what I have T3 total 104 reference range 60-181 T4 thyroxine total 8.0 reference range 4.5 -12.5 those were from about a year ago... I just got my thyroid rechecked but that dr hasn't given me copies of any of my lab reports which irritates me! anyway... I will get them when I can

    I have gallstones which caused my symptoms like that but when my husband's friend who is a dr. in germany heard my symptoms he immediatley suspected celiac disease. I think I do have celiac disease or at least gluten intolerance because of my other symptoms though.

    hmm... the soy milk maybe? or the dairy in the cream cheese? did the pumpkin soup have dairy in it as well?
  5. Aleshia
    that must be hard to not have the symptoms that kindof help you know when there is a problem... I wonder if there is a specialist who you could talk to to find out how seriously you need to follow the diet... like if you have the genes that make you succeptable to celiac disease but don't actually have the disease yet I believe that you shouldn't have to...

    hi, yes you can gain weight but a lot of doctors won't acknowledge this! anyway if you look on Open Original Shared Link it lists weight gain as one of the symptoms also on these other sites: Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link and there is an article here https://www.celiac.com/articles/1033/1/Celi...roda/Page1.html you cand...

    awww don't be sad it is a lot easier than it seems really. how did you get diagnosed? what are your symptoms? I'm sure once you go on the Gluten free diet you will feel so much better that it won't seem so difficult. do you have Wholefoods or TraderJoes or CentralMarket in your area? even Fredmeyer has a lot of glutenfree stuff. I think I have heard that...

    I did get hit in the head with a hammer... it was my own fault and the story is really embarrassing... so ANYWAY.... well, I talked to another dr. about those low hormones etc. and he looked through the other dr.s comments and the actual test results with me and said that it showed I was in the follicular phase of my cycle and that they were normal for...

    I think trix is supposed to be gluten free... and someone said the berry kix is now. and Rice chex is now also have you tried envirokids cereals?

    I saw something on tv once about it and they say always always always rinse canned beans extremely well because they way they are processed releases a lot of the gassy stuff... so the slimy stuff around the beans is what makes you gassy... if you wash them well first it isn't supposed to cause the gassy problems the same... don't know if that would help
  11. Aleshia
    maybe that is the problem... I wouldn't want to have a bath in the dirty tub... so don't want the kids to and don't have the energy to wash it every time...
  12. Aleshia
    could it be the sesame in the tahini??
  13. Aleshia
    ok this is gonna sound terrible... my kids are lucky to get a bath more than once a week I don't know why but that is one of the hardest things for me when I am so tired and worn out and stressed out by all the housework I'm behind on... its basically all I can do to feed and clothe them and get the oldest to preschool on time
  14. Aleshia
    that is so sad I love chickpeas... especially in hummus... so sorry for you do you think any othr kind of bean or anything could take their place in your recipes??
  15. Aleshia
    haven't been diagnosed yet (gluten free diet seems to help me though) and nightsweats is one of my many symptoms

    just wanted to remind all those out there who bought pampered chef cookware prior to going glutenfree that if it is scratched they will replace it! you just need the item number and order number and call them on the phone and they will have you send it back and they will send you new ones because of the lifetime guarantee! also, their other products have...
  17. Aleshia
    I would definitely replace it... I'm replacing mine (I'm going to return my cookware and get new ones because they are scratched (you can actually do that!!) so they will have gluten contamination...) gonna ask them at the same time if they will let me exchange the stoneware also.. maybe they will feel sorry for me who knows... its worth a try!

    it wasn't "plain yogurt" he wanted... he wanted me to put his yogurt on a plate... he always wants something different than what I give him... has to change things somehow... as for the milk he refuses to drink milk so I don't force it on him. he prefers cereals either plain or on top of yogurt which is fine with me too. he does like cheese so I figure...

    I think it would be good to have some accountability.. I've been trying to do weight watchers at home and then started the gluten free diet, I'm not sure if I can do both effectivly since I am still learning what I can eat etc and don't want to be counting points at the same time since I am already feeling limited in my options! I did lose about 3 lb in the...

    that seems to be how he is acting a lot of the time... I mean he kinda seems in his own little world and you have to tell him something many times before it seems to click in his mind that you are even talking to him... I did tell him to go in his room until he stopped fussing and that when he was settled down he could come out again and try to eat his breakfast...

    northern italians are actually anglo-saxons (milan area) and aren't genetically the same as southern italians in a lot of ways... from what I have studied anyway

    the celiac disease center in new york sent me a PDF file about a study done on that issue, they said there didn't seem to be any evidence to support that but that breastfeeding made the onset of celiac disease come on about 2 years after the onset in non breastfed babies and that children who were breastfed had atypical symptoms (not diarhea and weight loss...

    so... we went to a wedding yesterday and there was limited choice of food... we had brought some of our own snacks for the kids but I still gave them some sliced meat and cheese and veggies from the buffet and a bag of potato chips and then I read the ingredients on the potato salad and couldn't see anything obvious on it so gave them some of that too......
  24. Aleshia
    I don't know much about this and I could be wrong... but if you have low blood sugar aren't you supposed to drink orange juice or suck on some hard candy or something?
  25. Aleshia
    feeling better about things, I'm sure that it was glutan that caused my son's regression... things are getting better he just had his first normal bowel movement (ever) and he was really happy all day long, a perfect angel... still having difficulty focusing and concentrating... but at least he isn't whining about everything all day long! I'm sure it must...
