  1. What else did you eat yesterday? Food, drink, supplements, meds...
  2. I wondered if you are reacting to dairy. I cannot have fresh dairy products like yogurt. When I'm really sensitive, even the milk in milk chocolate can get me. I haven't reacted to that in awhile but in the early stages of the gluten-free diet, like you, I did.
  3. I am self dx'd. Most all my problems and symptoms have cleared up on the gluten-free diet. I don't know if I had gastritis but my dr said I had GERD. The only time I have any discomfirt now is if I eat too many alternate grains. I feel the best grain free. I eat only a little now. If your still having problems, you may have another sensitivity...
  4. I did not have this problem but I have read other posters telling how their BF babies reacted to both gluten and dairy that the mother ingested. I hope they will write in personally to you so you can get their direct stories. It certainly is worth a try. Can't hurt, might help, as the saying goes. Keep a food journal when you do it to show your ped how...
  5. Sorry you're feeling bad. That is no fun. You probably had CC from the grill and the utensils. The utensils touch the buns then your brat and whammie! If the grill wasn't washed clean of the beer brats, whammie! Sorry, I went to a family reunion yesterday where there was very little I could eat. But I ate what I could and had a Lara bar with me and had...

    ARCHIVED Gluten

    My DH eats gluten and I share his dishes. He also does all the dishwashing. If you're still getting sick, then look for CC.
  7. I guess I would just say, "Yeah, it really sucks but my body attacks even minute particles just like I'd eaten a big ol' loaf of bread! Then it's like Space Invaders (showing my age) in there and I'm sick as a dog for days."
  8. I think you know you need to change your priorities. Your health and healthy eating has to come first. I know, it's very hard to do that. We feel it's too selfish and other's who are "sicker" than us should be first. No one will put you first but you. This isn't an either or proposition. What I mean is, someone isn't going to be hurt or die because you...
  9. Jason, want to have a talk with my sister?
  10. My husband used to get them a lot. He's not gluten sensitive. A coworker told me she took lysine to cope with the pain and help them heal faster. It really works.
  11. I believe the percentage of overweight persons with celiac disease is 34% of total persons with celiac disease. I am one. I am self diagnosed and when I finally was able to see my dr, he gave me that look. You know the one, you are not skinny, I doubt you have celiac disease. It's likely you could have it. Your child inherited it from someone.
  12. I would probably add that if your child needs to use the bathroom, he may have D so please allow him free access to the facilities.
  13. It is correct that your son must continue to eat gluten for his test to be accurate. Can you be scheduled with one the other GI's? It needs to be a pediatric GI and there aren't many of those. If another will see you sooner or has a cancellation, maybe that would be the answer.
  14. I can only speak for myself. My reactions are worse as time goes on. I react to smaller amounts of gluten that I might not have noticed in the first couple of months gluten-free.
  15. I have been eating McDonald's double cheeseburgers with no bun several times in the last 3 months. Each time it was a different McDonald's as we were out and about. Had a great experience except once, and when was that? The time I stupidly ordered fries. I knew better, knew they had gluten just gave in to temption. I was lucky, my reaction was mild but...
  16. I was using corn tortillas also and they're good. Now, I'm eating less grains overall so I just take lunchmeat and spread it with cream cheese then wrap it up. Roll ups are yummy!
  17. I used accupuncture a few years back for a sore shoulder after a car accident. It gave me temporary relief. I assumed this shoulder just had arthritis and kept going. Guess what? After I went gluten-free, no more shoulder pain.
  18. Was your blood test a celiac panel? Can you post the results here? You said you did not have the genetic markers for celiac disease. CAn you also post those results here? The medical community recognizes different genetic markers in different parts of the world. It might help your confusion if you post your results here for a "second opinion". ...
  19. I guess I'm weird because I get it on my right side. It is gluten related but any grain can kick it up, usually a mild reaction if it's not gluten. BCD, I complained of this to my dr, usually I kept most of my symptoms to myself as I seemed to get nowhere, he sent me immediately for a chest x-ray. I have a very pretty set of lungs! It's where I used to...
  20. Could you please put the lab's ranges with those numbers? Each lab is different. Many, many people have false negatives but I have never heard of someone who actually had a false positive.
  21. I do not use gluten-free pet food. But you can bet if I start reacting to something and can't pin it down, I will switch my pet's food. And by the way, since I started feeding my dogs their breakfast with corn tortillas instead of wheat bread, my lab's continuous ear problems (his whole life) have cleared up. This is a first and we're not going back!
  22. My mom and my sister were having recurring UTI's but have stopped getting them by taking daily doses of Vit. C. This shocked me because this is the first time I can ever remember my sister actually taking a natural product and saying it worked!
  23. Puddy, Are these coworkers the same kind of people who make a scene about second hand smoke? They can't see if there is lung damage so why do they have to be so careful? Aren't they being just tad paranoid?
  24. You will probably have trouble unless he brushes well and rinses well before kissing. If his teeth are tight and trap food, he should floss too. Sorry, but we have to consider everything.
  25. I didn't see a dr to take sublingual B12 (methyl type). You can't overdose on it, extra just flushes out of your system. I tried it and I feel so much better. If I skip, forget, a couple of days, I'm draggin' my tail again.
