I hope she goes to a doctor soon! Blood is never a good sign and she should be checked for damage to her intestine if not for colon cancer. Good luck!

My BF can drink beer on occation and he is a Celiac. However, he does notice a small bit of a reaction. It all depends on the sensitivity. I would suggest she lay off the beer, as mentioned before. Even if it doesn't effect her, if it builds up in her system she could be feeling it later. It's good you worry about her but it's her choice.

I am Catholic and not a Celiac. . however, at my church we do not dip the wafer into the wine (only the Eucharistic Ministers actually drink the wine). Perhaps you could just take a gluten-free wafer and not the wine if you think it might cause you pain and harm. You could always talk to your priest about it, I'm sure he would better be able to take into...

Remember to check spices and seasons and read labes for "natural and artifical seasoning" which can contain all that stuff you don't want to eat.

I know my BF missed pizzia and Olive Garden bread sticks. . . If there was a pill my consern would be heath before luxury. If a pill a day could help relieve symptoms and help prevent/stop bodily damage it would be a worthwhile investment even if it wasn't a "magic cure". So much like insulin. . .it doesn't mean you can eat all the sugar you want but...

I would suggest getting checked by a gyno. It could be a yeast infection or something unrelated directly to a gluten-free lifestyle.

Steamed rice has gluten? Maybe they use something with it? My BF never had problems eating Chineese but he is not super-duper sensitive. He can normally eat soy and can have chicken w/ veggies. I would think they would be conserned with cross-contamination. . probably don't want you to sue if something goes wrong. Food alleriges are so icky.

I found Open Original Shared Link is a good resource too. Thanks for the link!

Hey all! I am in the same boat, my boyfriend is gluten-free and it's tough to learn to deal with his diet. I am able to eat anything (except chocolate) and it slips my mind when we go out. I know my BF was depressed when the doc pronounced him a Celiac even though he sort of knew a few years ago. Anyhow, if your sig other is a celiac, they...

You wouldn't want to deprive those 7 of a good, long life on your part. If possible, unless someone mentioned this and I missed it, try to spend a little time each week planning out your meals so you know. If you use gluten-free mixes for cookies and bread. . or a bake mix, mix up a big batch of it so it is always on hand if you need to make something...

Waya (my BF) gets very bad stomach pains, dizziness, diarrhea and mood swings and tends to have them for a few days at varying degrees. He is very careful about what he eats (even things that say

Hi. My BF is a celiac and was dignoised about two years ago though he had it all his life. I have been trying to find out as much as possible about it to help make his life eaiser. He knows what to eat and not to eat but things still happen and mistakes happen. I know there is no treatment other than a gluten-free diet but surely someone somewhere found...
