ARCHIVED Glutino Frozen Pizza Crusts
LuvMoosic4life replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Well, when I say I'm not a picky eater, I mean it. I had the glutino pizza crusts tonight and I thought it was really good....but then I have nothing to compare it too b/c this is my first gluten-free pizza. I microwaved it to thaw first and then put the toppings on it was done in like 10 minutes. The outside of the crust got crispy and it was soft in the... -
ARCHIVED Gene Test
LuvMoosic4life replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
thanks. that was basically my main concern b/c I've heard so many things about issues with insurance. I have "supposily" good insurance, it is through the state, but yet I am in debt b/c of medical bills they didnt cover...actually my insurance problems with doctors is the whole reason I didnt have a doctor at the time I found out gluten was causing my problems -
ARCHIVED Testing
LuvMoosic4life replied to mstrain's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
You should have repeat testing done to make sure you are healing and that you are not getting gluten in your diet. -
ARCHIVED Gene Test
LuvMoosic4life posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
My G.I didnt test me for celiac because I have already been gluten-free for months. He said continue to do what i'm doing since gluten seems to be the obvious cause to my problem. I completely forgot to ask him about the gene test when I was there, and now it is bugging me b/c if I had that done, it would at least rule out celiac (if negative) and if... -
ARCHIVED Shampoo?
LuvMoosic4life replied to wsieving's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
since this is about shampoo and related stuff....if someone could answer this it would be awesome.... I'm confused about products like shampoo and what ingefients I am looking for. I know the obvious oat extracts, wheat, barley rye...ect... but is there a commonchemical that I should look for in these products that contains hidden gluten? I heard it... -
ARCHIVED Vaginal Discharge And Celiac Disease
LuvMoosic4life replied to Maya T.'s topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
well, since everyone else is putting it out there. I myself saw the gyn b/c my pms symptoms have been worse gluten-free (some things are better, some are worse--wierd!) I think it is my body re-adjusting....anyways..... I've had discharge since I was a little girl. more recently I've been having discharge that is similar to what comes out of my nose when... -

ARCHIVED Picked Up Some Neem, Will Let You Know How It Goes.
LuvMoosic4life replied to Pyro's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm just curious, because I have been having bloating off and on- is your bloating gassy bloating, or just bloating?? I know not a very specific question, I dont know how to explain it. but I ask b/c my bloating I've been experiencing seems to get worse as the day goes on, but it isnt like when I was on gluten where I would be bloated and extremly gassy... -
ARCHIVED Glutino Frozen Pizza Crusts
LuvMoosic4life posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I swear everytime I make money, the first thing I spend it on is a new gluten-free product I havent tried! I havent ate pizza in over a year and have never tried gluten-free pizza yet so I bought the frozen glutino personal size crusts at the store today and some toppings, all of which were gluten-free- yay! but my second time trying cheese again in 5 months... -
ARCHIVED Writing Article For College Paper
LuvMoosic4life replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Publications & Publicity
hi, thanks. I actually have more than enough contacts right now. I'm actually worried my article might take up the whole paper!! -
When I first started the gluten-free diet I hated talking about it and was nervous to bring the topic up. I even sometimes would eat gluten instead of being up front about it and saying I cannot have it, i felt as though I was a burden. I was always afraid of what people thought because I usually got criticized Now I really don't care anymore and have...

I'm not sure how official it is, but I saw newscasts and articles about october being celiac awareness month. I think it is through the CSA. If any of you have facebook, I created an event. I know its not a huge thing, but I'm trying to do anything possible to get this more recognized. So join it and invite people! If you do an events search on facebook for...

it's half and half for me. Some people completely get it, others arecompletely ignorant. My roomate fo example thinks I'm on a diet and look at ingredients for caloric/healthy reasons, even after i explained to her what happens when I eat gluten. She understands not to use my silverware and dishes, but then she'll ask me qestions like "so is it hard not to...

ARCHIVED Rash And Tongue Bumps
LuvMoosic4life replied to Tykes's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
sounds like DH. I get a burning tounge, mouh sores and little red dots in my mouth when I consume gluten....no fun, especially the burning tounge. -
Does anyone feel like they want to keep eating after they have been glutened? Not neccesarrily right after it happens, but for like a day or two afterwards.... I wonder if it is because my body is robbed of nutrients when it is glutened....ugh....so frustrating, especially since I'm feeling bloated and crappy to begin with and heartburn stays with me for...

ARCHIVED Glutened By A Sloppy Drunk!?
LuvMoosic4life replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
LOL! yeah I'm starting to re-think ever going out where there are sloppy drunks again! I still feel like crap today and even have a slight migrane and tingly legs and feet/toes- BLAHHHH!!! I thnk I'm going on a liquid diet for a couple days, everything is making me naucious! and I was feeling so good for a while -
Sorry I've been posting so much in here, but I can't believe I was glutened by a sloppy drunk/high dude! I was at a festival (with loud music) and he comes up to me and stands really close, talking loudly in my ear b/c he cant hear very well. As he was talking he was holding a large glass of beer and eating cheese crackers from a bag....his glass was wobbly...

ARCHIVED Writing Article For College Paper
LuvMoosic4life replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Publications & Publicity
HI, sure, no problem, I just need to write it first. Do you need it soon? I have to meet up with some people in charge of the news paper first since I am new and havent written for it yet. I'm hoping it will be done by the end of next week assuming I can interview some faculty and students by then- which seems pretty good so far. -
Glutened Through Instruments?
LuvMoosic4life replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
thanks, thats what i was thinking too. beer has a lower gluten content in it too, although I'm not so sure about the crappy killians they were giving us for free at the gig-lol I think I'm going to buy some wet wipes, or whatever they call them. I'll look like a germ freak, but oh well, better that getting a migrane. -
I dunno if anyone else in here plays an instrument, but I am a musician and I play gigs out with other people, in bars and places where people eat and drink. Before finding out I was Gluten intolerant, I would drink beer while i played gigs...sometimes I would eat stuff..... I play clarinet, and for those of you who dont know, it requires a wooden reed...

ARCHIVED Eggs
LuvMoosic4life replied to modiddly16's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
if thats the case, i better walk around in a bubble. I would think that protien (gluten) is broken down into a differant form before it is absorbed by the animal. It would be impossible for a whole protien to make its way into the chickens egg. The egg has protien of it's own. besides, wouldn't they have to label that eggs contain wheat? pretty rediculous... -
ARCHIVED Dried Fruit Vs Regular
LuvMoosic4life replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
the dried apples I bought are organic and have nothing added to them. but good to know I'm not the only one! this stinks since I love dried fruit too -
ARCHIVED Dried Fruit Vs Regular
LuvMoosic4life posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
When I am at school I sometimes stop in the convienience store on campus and pick up something to eat if I feel super hungry. There are only a few gluten-free products there, one of which is dried apples by "bare fruit" which is labled "gluten-free" right on the bag. I never have a prob with regular apples or really any whole fruit, but it seems dried... -
I saw the g.i doc today. I told him how I went gluten free by myself and explained all my prior symptoms, ect, ect. I was so worried he would want me to go back on gluten to get tested, but luckily he knew what he was talking about and said it's not worth it and the tests would more than likely come back negative anyways! He also told me the fiber meds my...
