    Would this be why I get a nawing, aching pain just to the right of my stomach after I eat too much or too much of something high in fat???? I'm not diagnosed celiac, but I am convinced I have it....

    thanks!!! Yeah, my mom is thinking that my reproductive problems have been causing all my digestive problems this whole time....either way, I'm still avoiding gluten given the amazing changes I've seen! the positive definitly outwieghs the negatives.

    So I saw my primary doc. He referred me to a G.I and a gyno because I have probs in both those ares since going gluten-free. Now my gyno ran some hormone tests on me and referred me to another place to get a transvaginal ultrasound to see why I lost my "friend" and am in discomfort/ horrible mood swings, and constipation. My G.I appt. is before the...

    if you buy a bottle of clear liquid stevia by "sweet leaf" (some other brands add othe things like alcohol so I stay away from them) it goes a lot father than a box of splenda its like $8 where I live. I would rather spend a couple extra bucks for something more natural....

    thanks for the replies. I may try them just ONE more time down the road when I know I'll be home and not doing anything. I didnt get sick for weeks, but had D for hours, just one day...I went back to my constipated self the day after its like my body instantly rejected them....

    I was excited to buy bob's gluten-free oats. I got the steele cut oats. The first time I tried them I got gassy and had some gurgling...wasnt dure if it was the oats or something else, so I waited a couple weeks and tried them again today, differant reaction : I got D for the first time in like 3 or 4 months!!! Not to be graphic, but it came out yellow...

    thanks. well since I am not eating gluten I figured that any blood work is useless... or is there something I'm missing? I'm also wondering if a biopsy would still show damage after being gluten-free for 4 months. I know intestines can heal fast, but judging by my symptoms, I find it hard to believe that villi damage would be completely healed after this...
  8. LuvMoosic4life
    thanks everyone If this is true, does anyone think that damage would still show up in a biopsy after 4 months gluten-free? I know there is the factor that damage could be anywhere in the intestine, and not where they take the sample.....but I am also in the dilema to get tested. I am seeing a g.i doc in a few weeks, which I dunno if it is...

    I think I might do that. it's just such a drive to get to where they meet. I wasnt sure if I need an official diagnosis to be involved...

    I just need to get some thoughts off my chest with people who understand....family just doesnt, especially with self diagnosis... I find myself thinking about gluten intolerance way too much, and my mind goes in circles. Sometimes I wonder if maybe it is all in my head. I read the symptoms of celiacs on here and although I've been through my share of...

    If it is debilitating you to the point where you cant perorm daily activities, I would just stay gluten-free and cancel the biopsy, you know whats best for you. If you think you can stick it out (depending on how bad you want the biopsy and official diagnosis) I would say go through with it....but there is always the risk of a negative. I will be in youir...

    I menioned this in another thread, but not sure if anyone saw it. I am not on gluten and told my doctor my symptoms. He understands I need to be on gluten to get positive results but still ordered a test for celiac when he took my blood, the sheet he gave me says the test is "celiac disease w/o gliadin" ......I'm confused. I thought the whole purpose of...

    I KNOW!!!!

    I stopped in. The chickens do not contain any gluten ingredients, although if you are extremely sensitive dont eat them, there is an allergen warning on the bottom stating that CC may be possible b/c of shared preparation areas, so there is even a chance of soy CC or other allergens ( I cant rememebr exactly what it said). I bought the chicken anyways because...

    I went to the doc finally! I decribed to him everything I've been going through, but didnt bring up celiac (purposely) to see if he would understand or have knowledge on the matter. Luckily he DID and ordered a celiac panel (even though I told him I am not eating gluten) the test he ordered said "celiac disease w/o gliadin" does anyone know if that is just...

    I'm finally seeing a doc tomarrow and am going to tell him all my symptoms I've had and what i am going through. but I'm starting to wonder.... Eliminating gluten as definitlly eliminated tremendously my bloating/discomfort and D. But lately my C has been acting up (nothing works for it. and stuff like flax meal causes me more irritation!!!) The bloating...
  17. LuvMoosic4life
    thanks. I'm stopping there tomarrow. IF the ingredients are safe I'll try it out and see how it goes.

    Has anyone that shops at Wegmans ever bought one of the pre-made whole rotisserri chickens? I was just wondering if they are gluten-free because I know most stores add a lot "stuff" to them. I keep meaning to check when I stop there but forget, and the list online doesnt say anything. I wanted to pick one up this week...but I'm thinking it would be too good...
  19. LuvMoosic4life
    this is a very good point! BTW I feel exactly the way you do since I'm self diagnosed. I only ate out once since going gluten-free and was afraid to even mention "no croutons" on my salad....now I'm realizing just being up front will make people more believing. Don't look at it as a burden or something to be ashamed or afraid to talk about, it's who...

    Hi try Pamela's cookies in the box.The chocolate ones are amazing, even my gluten eating mom said they are the best cookies she ever had.
  21. LuvMoosic4life
    ugh!!! so annoying!!
  22. LuvMoosic4life
    I forgot to add that I used quinou flakes and parmesean for the meatballs instead of bread crumbs, they held together really well!
  23. LuvMoosic4life
    thans. yeah, I heard that alll McCormick products are gluten-free, unless labeled otherwise....
  24. LuvMoosic4life
    This recipe can easily be made gluten free. I made it yesterday (with gluten-free pasta and with turkey instead of veal) and my gluten eating mom loved it. I also used "Pacific" brand free range organic chicken broth and vegatable broth.... Open Original Shared Link

    Are most brands of powdered sugar safe? and what about baking powder and baking soda?? Most of the ones I see dont have any suspect ingredients or warnings about the factories so I figure they are safe? I havent actually baked anything gluten-free yet. I asume to stick to pure vanilla extract also, over the imitation brown stuff? thanks!
