    THANK YOU!!! Now, that is what bread is supposed to look like. I'll give the recipe a try this week.

    There's still gluten in my house. I have two very young children that are quite picky. They haven't been very receptive to my gluten-free cooking. BUT, now through trial and error I am slowly finding gluten-free recipes that the entire family appreciates. One day I hope to have my family eating the same gluten-free meals as me (It's no fun having to prepare...

    I'm searching for a good gluten-free bread recipe, because I'm starting to miss sandwiches. I tried making a corn-based version the other night and I don't know if it came out right or not. When I cut into my loaf it was a pale brown color. Very dense yet springy and spongey at the same time. It was very unpleasant. Did I do something wrong? Any advice would...

    Oh, I really feel for you! Hang in there, though. I was misdiagnosed for 19 years, and just found out last year that all of my ailments were caused from Celiac. I started the gluten-free diet back in September and I swear my diarrhea (sorry if TMI) got way worse--and it was already pretty bad! By November I was ready to give up the diet, but I decided to...

    WELL NEVERMIND! I apparently still don't know what's wrong with me. I just heard from my doctor's office today that they ran the wrong test!!! For some stupid reason, they did not run the full Celiac panel. They only ran one part of the test, and it was the part I had been getting a negative result before the diet. So my 3 months of being gluten-free was...

    Well, a couple of months ago my GI doc said that if I do have Celiac or gluten sensitivity that she thinks it's a mild case--since my biopsies came back negative and my blood test results don't show damage... just raised antibody levels. I have to see what I can get away with. If my symptoms stay bad after 6 months to a year of being gluten-light then I'll...

    Not sure if you remember me, but I posted on here about a month ago. I had positive blood work for Celiac (b/c of increased IGA antibody levels--the other parts of the blood test were negative). And, a negative biopsy. I decided to go gluten-free for 12 weeks. WHICH WAS SOOOO HARD FOR ME. They drew my blood last Monday for another Celiac test. Today I found...

    Hi there, I'm still not sure if I have Celiac yet or not myself. You can ask your doctor's office to see your actual test results, that may give you some clues. As for me, I tested positive for the gliadin antibody part only--which could mean that I might have something other than Celiac from what I hear--but what that could be I have no idea. I had an endoscopy...

    Hi there. I'm not officially diagnosed with Celiac yet, but I have had a migratory joint problem that has plagued me for around 10 years or so. And it's gotten worse over the past couple of years, so I finally decided to go see a doctor about it. Because I was scared it could maybe be RA. But, all of the tests they gave me came back negative for RA, Lupus...

    Hello! I'm new here, too. I'm still not 100% sure if I have Celiac, but I'm trying the diet out to see if it helps my crazy symptoms I've been plagued with for years. I've been gluten free for 2 months now. Just wanted to let you know that I've also had that same terrible pain on my left side. I've been dealing with it for almost 19 years now. Mine feels...

    I am so glad I posted on here! Thank you all very much for your input. I was so close to giving up on this diet! I never thought about cutting out the dairy or even testing for food allergies. Nor did I think about the lipstick. I'll have to check into that. I'm pretty sure I've been good about keeping gluten out of my diet, but I do eat at restaurants from...

    Hello all, I'm a newbie here. Before I go into my ramblings... My main question is how long did it take for your Celiac symptoms to start disappearing after you began a gluten free diet? But I'd really like it if you had a few mintes to read about my history and tell me your opinions. Here's my story (btw, I'm currently 29-years-old). * Not sure if this...
