    A smal part of me says yes! But a bigger part says no. Now that I have been on this diet I am so much more conscious of what goes into my body. Some of the stuff in processed foods ins't even real food. Going out and suff is harder now but... What can you do? You make it work... Also, i'm not going to live in the what if. I can't eat Gluten...That...

    Hi there! I was dianosed with a positive biopsy but my doctor first started looking into to the disease because of my chronically low iron. My blood tests started coming up with low iron when I was about 18 (I'm 25 now). Then in the last couple years my protien levels were coming back low and nothing was helping. I took iron supplements forever that just...

    this is just a shot in the dark and I'm certainly not an expert but maybe the headache is a reaction to withdrawls your body is having from the gluten?? Just a thought. Also, If you're only one day free of gluten...maybe it's just a headache...not related to your diet or gluten at all. Best of luck with yor new lifestyle! I'm just four weeks into all...

    Hey!! I would love to help in any way I can! I'm a television news producer and writing scripts is a big part of my job. Shoot me a message on here and let me know what you want me to do. I can even start writing something if you'd like...

    You should have them read this site... Maybe if they read the first person stories about how sick people have become after getting glutened from such small amounts it would help. But I can see how a published book or article might carry more weight...

    This may be a stupid question...but do the pills have gluten in them? I took Iron pills several years ago before I was diagnosed and they made me so sick I have to quit taking them. Then I switched brands and it got a little easier. You should talk to your doc.

    I'm not a man over 50 years old. So I'm not sure if this is the advice you want but this woman is definitely off her rocker. I'm 25, single and a very hard worker. I have a terribly hard time finding someone to date. But finding someone to date when you have no standards and only care about finding a person to support you rather than love you maybe it...

    So last week I was on vacation. I went home to see my family and it was great because I live far away and don't get to see them very often. I'm also not going home for the Holidays this year so it was a special trip. Now, my family is very supportive. They weren't at first but have done some research and now realize how big of a change this is for me...

    Hey Miss Vivian, I'm new to all this myself and you are right...It is so overwhelming and it can get serious...but it's also very manageable. Once I figured that out and got organized around my house...making the transition to gluten free went well for me. Some hope for you with the tremors when dozing off to sleep...I had this problem my whole life in...

    I've been gluten free for about two weeks now and I've had the opposite happen to me. Before I felt hungry all the time and often overate but now I eat a meal and it fills me up. I've been eating a lot of meats and raw vegetables too since I started with the diet. I guess this isn't a really helpful response but I just found the reversal interesting.

    I had a negative blood test and a positive Biopsy. Also, I agree with djmom. You need to decide what to do with your own child on your own time. You don't have to decide anything by Firday. What's going to happen if you don't? All the Doctors of the world are going to stop doing Endoscopies? I think not. Tell your Doc to cool it. I'm happy I decided...

    Thanks for the recipe! I'm excited to try them! What do you use in your own flour blend? I've found several online I could make up for myself but was wondering what ones were tested and easy to make, use, and keep?

    ARCHIVED H.pylori

    MollyBeth replied to lizard00's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    Hey! I had an H.pylori infection back when I was in college. It felt like normal acid reflux times ten! I had really bad chest pain. I took the prev pack and that got it all cleared up. I would definately move my apt up. My chest pain got so bad that I had to go the the ER and then they gave me one of those yucky green shots that numb your insides....

    Is there a free clinic you could go to anywhere? The antibiotics would help you a lot. Also, I was on prednisone towards the end of having mono. It really helped with my energy levels. If you don't get some rest though.... You won't get better. You have to slow down and sleep sleep sleep. If you don't get over it now you may start to fel better for...

    You need to talk to your doctor. I work in news and recently saw a story on this. Sleep-eating is a documented Sleeping disorder and it is treatable with medication.

    Hey RobinAnn, Welcome to the site! I'm just starting my second week on the gluten free diet and I noticed results almost instantly! I'm still have some digestive trouble on and off but I'm guessing my body is still flushing gluten out. Some people on here say it was two years before they were completely back to normal...some say it takes six months. ...

    I'm going to have to second Shay's response. As you well know...just the thought of giving up things like bread and all our favorite processed foods can be a challenge. It sounds crazy to me but some people would just rather deal with the symptoms than go through the hassel of changing their diet. When I first had my blood tested back in August I was...

    Hey Cat! I'm new to all this myself and I can tell you that joining this site has been one of the best hings I've done to help cope with the new lifestyle! Everyone here is more than happy to answer any question...No matter how gross or encourage you along the way as you start your new diet!

    I have a job that makes me miss out on holidays a lot and I just wanted to thank you for a great idea!!! I'm moving back closer to home (right now i live about 1000 miles from home) in the spring and this would be the perfect way for me to get everyone together on my food terms!
  22. MollyBeth
    This isn't too much to ask...and I too thought the idea of an island was just a joke and was pretty funny.
  23. MollyBeth
    Thanks so much for all your support and ideas!! I'll certainly be looking into making that cake Purple. Thanks for the recipe! It sounds like the perfect weekend project... Before my only plans were laundry and bathing the dog!

    I'm just days into my Gluten Free Diet. This is day five to be specific and it's been going well. I found a store that has a huge selection of gluten free products...including some pretzels that I actually like better than when I was still a member of the Gluten world....and I know some would say it's too soon to tell but already I am more regular in my...

    For sure! We will all need to be stylin in our new place!
