  1. Is the Lame Advertisement the back scratch test? It was such a long time ago that I was tested I forgot all the ins and outs about testing. i was really good about avoiding ( eccept Gluten) that i think that is why the blood test turned out negative?

Officialy you are not allowed to be discriminated against due to a diseas. Also Crohn's diseas is known to be the young persons diseas meaning even kids can get it and you are lucky if you have a diagnosis. but not everyone...
  7. Iguess it is time to see the Doctor AGAIN. I have been ignoring him for 2 weeks! The whole diagnosis of Celiac took many Doctors about 7 years, My last doctor a very patient man still has not chased me away, since I have been seeing him so often with all my symptoms of Celiac. I have to tell you that the major reason I never was diagnosed earlier was because...
  8. Hi Sandy; Thanks for the info. I saw this thing on T.V last night that this Doctor from UCSF ( that is where he studied) he said I think that you can reverse the onset of Diabetes? If I start shaking when I get hungry is that a bad sign?
  9. Hi ; I was told that I should not buy the "organic" home made Marshmelows because the Gelatin in that product might be derived from Fish. I am allergic to Fish, and it is particularily difficult to cook anything for me since I have many food allergies.
  10. I had a negative test first I was very ill I had lost a lot of weight in a very short time, I was so ill I could hardly eat . The nutrisionist told me to go on a wheat free diet , because I had so much abdominal pain, I only realised later that they had tested me for Celiac again and the reason it was negative is that I was not eating wheat. I started eating...
  11. Do I have to check for Diabetis? After a few weeks of the gluten-free diet I am constantly craving sugar? I wonder if I am eating sweets because of the chrnic fatigue and I need the quick energy or is it Diabetes? Am I at higher risk of getting type two if I have Celiac?
  12. In General I think it is in the 100, 000's for most patients... If you think of unnecessary surgeries that doctors do. One of my Doctors said that many patients whom are diagnosed with abdominal problems, have the most unnecessary operations of all, because and I have heard this before that these patients keep running to the Doctor and then they get tiered...
  13. I do put sugar in my tea. Strange thing though , I think that ever since I went gluten-free Ihave been craving sweets. I worry about that?
  14. I have always had a problem with the yellow of the egg ,it is so bad that I even ( could not tolerate the pie that is brushed with the yellow) So I eat egg white freid with salt and pepper, I used to put that on toast , I just eat it with potatoes. i think it is the Sulfa that I am not able to digest.
  15. I have a question, I hope someone can help. I have been very ill in the last 5 years, It started out with Migraines every day, Neuropathy and then shoulder and pains all over. Then it turned into severe abdominal pain. Have been hospitalized etc.. developed all these new allergies to everything. Tested positive for Celiac disease recently but my doctor...
  16. What I was wondering , is what if you have damaged Villi here and there? That is the reason I did not want a repeat Endoscopy. If you have Ulcers they are sores spread out here and there , so is that the same with the Villi?
  17. I am new at this , but I am reading Dr. Peter Green's book Celiac Disease a hidden epidemic , what I gather from his book that after a pregnancy a n existing predisposition for Celiac can start with varying symptoms: one of which is Anemia, which i had as well. I was told to eat steak and always with orange juice for better absorbtion and was put on Iron...
  18. I just want you to know that I am new at this myself but this is what I know:The most important thing is that you have to eat Gluten so pasta for dinner, Pizza for lunch and Doughnuts for brakfast! for a while I am not sure how long I guess it depends on how long you have been off of Gluten. According to my doctor 10 and above is a yes on the tTG. If you...
  19. I really like to drink tea although sometimes I have abdominal pain (reflux). I sometimes have the same reaction with bananas, strawberries, and watermelon. gluten-free for 3 weeks also lactose and soy free.
  20. Almost every food tht I eat hurts I only started gluten-free recently and I am still learning. I wonder if I should stop tea? I can't drink herbals due to allergies? I am surprised to hear that sugar can cause reflux?
  21. I am having one of those days, the dilelma day? should I jump ship and find a new doc( taking the risk that He or She knows less about Celiac or stick with the old guy who likes to diagnose each patient with this same sentense" You have IBS. What I am about to tell you is that you are not going to die from this you need to get your mind body to function...
  22. if something contains: Corn Syrup, sugar,modified corn starch, dextrose, water, gelatin, blue 1, natural and artificial flavor, and tetrasodium pyrophosphate, is is gluten free?
  23. if my Ttg was 14 I am positive for celiac right? they want to do an HLADQ test but i am finding out that that is even not accurate enough to predict celiac disease. They did an Endoscopy 6 months ago but no one is answering my question: did you take a biaopsy? I am getting sent from one doc to the other , I have more doctors than ever before, see previously...

I tested postive for the Ttg test, and they want to test me with a HLADQ test. my biopsy was normal and my Crohn's is in remission. the pain is unbearable. i have had several miscarrages, pain...
