    I have found a great replacement for the confetti cake - it is a Dryers light slow churned special edition (edys in some places). It is an American Idol flavor (you vote for your favorite) and it is called Take the Cake. It's cake flavored ice cream with frosting and sprinkles and it is not only light but AMAZING! I was so excited - if you look on the website...

    Hi everyone, thanks for all the help. I went ot my first appt today and my Dr. suggested phenegren or Zofran also. I am glad to hear they are gluten-free, I couldnt fine that information. I will be much happier if I am not throwing up! I have a 5 and a 2 year old so feeling like I have the flu for 3 straight weeks is not fun at all! natmilly, I am due on...

    I am 8 weeks pregnant with my third and I am soooo sick. It started at 7 weeks just like with my last two and those lasted until 15 weeks. This time it is so much worse. For the last two weeks I have thrown up at least 4 times a day. All of the medications I have looked up say unknown if they are gluten-free or not. Has anyone taken any of these medications...

    I just found out I am expecting my 3rd as well. I was diagnosed last September so my first two were also not gluten-free (although I have never had symptoms). I threw up quite a bit with my first two but it didnt start till 7 weeks so I am just waiting to see what happens! I got all my blood work done and my antibodies were negative and all my iron, b12 etc...

    I was just diagnosed in October but I never had problems getting pregnant. My first was 1 month after we decided to start trying and the second was quite a surprise. I think everyone has different symptoms and luckily you caught it at a young age so I wouldnt worry yet! Stephanie

    Oh Yeah! I am in in Parker, I will be frequenting your bakery often! I just read about it in my newletter. When I started reading this post asking for suggestions I was so excited to see it was your place! This is enough to bring tears to my eyes! I was just diagnosed in August and went on my first vacation last week since being dx. We were in Aruba and...

    I have it too. I have had it on my knees and elbows since I was 2 (I'm 33 now). There have been times it has been a little better and times it has been pretty bad (a total body break out after getting strep throat - stay away from strep it can cause a breakout!). The only thing that works for me is diplorene (prescription). I've only been on the diet a month...

    Sharon, we are staying in Palo Alto on Friday as well (not sure what hotel though) but earlier that day we are going to visit a winery in Sonoma. I am not sure how long that takes or how long of a drive to Palo Alto. We are going to work out the details of out trip tonight, I will look at a map and try to figure out if we would be there in time for dinner...

    Sharon, we are staying in San Francisco the first couple of nights but we are driving to Palo Alto on Friday, so that could work. Let me double check with my husband and see where we are staying (he made the arrangments) and we'll figure out if that would work. Hopefully we can meet, I'll find out the plan in the next couple of days... Stephanie

    My husband and I are actually going. We have been wanting to go to San Francisco for a vacation and we had free tickets and hotel (he travels for work) so when I heard about the conference I was so excited and was shocked when he was into it! I am a little worried about eating out on vacation - we will be there for 4 days prior to the conference so there...

    Deb, the cookie/ice cream combo was YUMMY! Another FYI, I found some bars called Lara bars. They are made by someone in Denver and have no gluten (the apple pie one was apples, dates, nuts, cinnamin) they actually have the little no wheat symbol on them. I found them at King Soopers with the nutritional bars and they are really good and filling. at $1.99...

    I live in parker and I just bought some of their stuff at the water to go store in Castle Pines. I tried the pizza crusts (which I did not cook first when I tried so it came out kinda yucky so I will have to try again) and some snickerdoodle cookies. The cookies although not cheap are to die for (I know I can make them but I just like to have some in the...

    My favorite thing is when I am talking to my friends about my new diet and they (and yes several people have done this) ask if I can have fruits or vegatables I told my husband I so badly wanted to say "yes as long as they don't dip them in wheat juice" but instead I just smile and AGAIN explain what constitutes wheat, oats, rye or barley and move on...

    I actually did try that but I came up with some medical sites that I can't even come close to understanding!

    My only guess on the fajitas is that they may have gluten in whatever they are marinated in. My cousin makes fajitas that (pre-diagnosis) used to make me really sick - they are marinated in soy sauce. Maybe contact them and see if the marinade is safe -otherwise what a great dinner that would be (you could even bring corn tortillas) Stephanie

    I had my biopsy yesterday (which by the way really was no big deal for anyone out there waiting to do this). I am waiting for the lab results but they said they did find mild nodular gastropathy. Anyone have any idea what this means? The nurse told me they found some thing (I was still out of it a little so I can't remember wording) that was indicitive of...

    I am confused about the salsa situation. Why is salsa a no-no at so many placed (chilis, wendys etc) anyone know? Stephanie

    I am FINALLY meeting with a GI Dr. on Tues after waiting over a month to get in. all 3 of my blood tests came back positive for celiac. My meeting Tuesday is just a consultation - they wouldnt even let me schedule the biopsy until I meet with him. I am so worried that it might take another month to get the biopsy done and I am getting sicker by the day....

    Thank you all so much for your replies. I am so thankful to have found this board. I would feel so alone without it! No one understands what I am going through. friends are saying things like "well you were never a big bread lover anyway", they have no idea that just about eveything in their cuboards (and mine!) has gluten in it. It doesnt help that I have...

    I went to my Dr. last week because I have been trying to lose weight for 7 months with no luck (have actually gained 4 lbs). I am working out, tried eating less, eating more (after testing my rmr) etc. I also complained of bloating in my stomach. anyway, he ran all kinds of blood tests. while waiting for them to come back I cut out dairy and was amazed how...
