I have a question about oats. I have never had a digestive reaction to gluten-free oats, when I have had the occasional cookie or gluten-free granola. Recently, I decided that I needed to add some healthy whole grains back into my diet and started eating gluten-free oatmeal every morning. On the sixth day, I had such terrible brain fog I could barely function...

ARCHIVED Dealing With Rude Family Members
soccermom replied to ReneeBTX's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Interesting topic. My in-laws are more supportive than my own family. My mom understands (her best friend was diagnosed a few months after I was), but a couple of my sisters can be rude at times. Not the loud, in-your-face rude, but the subtle, under-the-breath rude. They usually just roll their eyes when I can't eat something. For holidays, they don't even... -
ARCHIVED For Those Who Were Diagnosed After Having A Baby..
soccermom replied to foodiegurl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I wasn't diagnosed after childbirth, but I believe that is what triggered the disease. I had a difficult pregnancy with my firstborn (bleeding, pre-eclampsia, emergency C-section after a long labor). I had never had any digestive problems whatsoever before the birth. Afterwards, I would get random bouts of D, but figured it was just my body recovering from... -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Items/meal Ideas You Can Find At Any Grocery Store/target, Etc.
soccermom replied to foodmakesmesick's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce is gluten-free? I love this stuff. I bought some BBQ sauce that was labeled gluten-free and it was terrible. I've been eating everything plain. This is a great thread. It has been about 6 months since I have been diagnosed, and have stayed away from everything that I wasn't sure about. I am really busy and don't have a lot of... -
I have been reading in a few posts about brain fog and wondering if it is the same as feeling lightheaded. This is the reason I went to the doctor. I was feeling quite lightheaded and wasn't able to drive or work. My doctor did a blood test and I was very anemic. She then tested me for Celiacs because of the anemia but said that being lightheaded wasn't normally...

ARCHIVED Glutened At Work-retail
soccermom replied to soccermom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I am the store manager and have educated everyone about this disease. We do have a no food policy in the store, but customers ignore it. Many bring in strollers with the trays filled with cereal, crackers, etc. to keep their little ones occupied while shopping. It is a small retail store in a mall with a food court. Short... -
Help! I have been recently diagnosed and have been gluten-free for about a month. I was so sick that I was off work until I felt better. I started feeling better just a few days after cutting out gluten. I have recently returned to work and I get glutened everyday. I work retail and there are so many ways to get glutened that I'm not sure what to do. My coworkers...
