  1. My daughter discovered charcoal tabs (gluten-free) helped her greatly after she discovered a wait staff had brought a dish with gluten by mistake. She said she will keep them on hand forever now.
  2. I will have to add this to my cabinet. Thanks for the tip.
  3. I have not read all of the responses (im sorry) but wanted to say that I have been completely grain free for over a month now and I am amazed at how much deeper I am sleeping. I really needed the rest.
  4. I did ask my doctor who explains that my intestine is so inflamed, upset, and over worked that he has me on what is a "modified Paleo" diet. NO GRAINS. He removed tropical fruit temporarily because of the high sugar content that is in fruits grown in a high heat situation. Oranges have much more sugar content than an apple. Since my intestine has been so...
  5. Ok, um..wow. I came here hoping to find support, kindness, and maybe some recipes and talk with others who have been thru similar if not the same things. I must not be expressing myself well because I feel like each of my posts have been picked apart and inspected for holes in what my MD has asked me to do. I dont know why I can have nut butter, but not...
  6. I am sorry if this seems confusing, but my MD said NO flours. not grain, not wheat, not nut, not soy, not coconut NO flour of any kind. it is very difficult for an inflamed intestine to digest, and they have removed it from my list of approved foods. its not a matter of preference, or gluten, or even vegan its just that my gut is so upset and inflamed and...
  7. Thank you for all of the great replies. Let me try to explain a bit more. I am doing a flour free, Dairy free, Soy free, sugar free, tropical fruit free diet because I have MS, Gastroparesis, allergies, bloating, constipation, psoriasis, survived breast cancer, and my inflammation markers are off the charts. My biopsy came back negative 3 times for...
  8. Hello, long time no see! I joined this board months and months ago thinking I would do well to try gluten-free free with my MS to see if I could improve my sx. Well, I did it, and discovered my sx remained the same, so gluten-free was probably not my issue. I continued to bloat, have severe constipation, Multiple sclerosis sx, headache, nausea, brain fog...
  9. I am quite willing to entertain the fact that I MAY have a celiac issue. I know that many diseases are diagnosed without clear proof of what is going on. I am also aware of how much money is being made off of my illness. From medical check ups to meds that cost 40k per year. Check ups that run $1k a visit and $5k every 6 months to get MRI scans. I have demanded...
  10. How was I dx with ms? Spinal tap showed Obands. MRI reveals typical pattern of periventricular lesions in the perifrontal cortex. positive babinsky reflex After trial of interferons decrease in lesion load. Hx of numerous flares that involve drop foot, and other typical MS reflex responses. positive response on copaxone. Diagnosed by a local...
  11. Thanks for the advice. I didnt know they needed to take multiple samples. I have been assured that they have a cutting edge lab at this place I am going, and are well skilled, and have dx celiac in several patients in this lab. I have had these tests before, so I know its not going to be pretty the day before. They give you dulcolax tabs in the AM the...
  12. I have been diagnosed as MS a few years back. A wonderful friend who frequents this board (no names ***stares at Julie***) swears that she thinks I have celiac. Lately my tummy has been torn up! wooo! The MD thinks I may have a volvulous, but thats another story. I am trying hard to avoid having 4 feet of my intestine removed, and saw the GI MD who suggested...
