    I just started the gluten fee diet after my diagnosis of celiac disease the end of October. I have been doing alot of baking and was wondering everyone's opinion on premixed gluten free flours. The ones that have the xanthum gum etc. allready added. I have been using Tom Sawyer's gluten free flour mix with decent results. Roda Diagnosed Oct...

    Yesterday I developed an itch ( no not a 7 yr itch) on my thighs and upper arms. It was driving me crazy to the point that I scratched the blood to the surface. Now I do have dry skin, but this was a deep itch. I then noticed this morning as I was changing for bed, that I had left bruises all over from scratching. I don't think scratching should cause...

    Jason, I was diagnosed with celiac in October of this year. I have always had problems all my life with constipation. Pre celiac things that would help was shredded wheat and triscuit crakers. Obviouslly we can not have that anymore. If I consume too much dairy and rice it makes it worse. Since my diagnosis I have discovered quinoa. It is naturally...

    Yesterday after I got home from the colonoscopy I ate a little lunch and the rest of the day was spent shopping and running after the kids. For the most part I felt fine. I was wrapping christmas presents sitting on the floor when I noticed that I could not stand the waist of my jeans pushing into my abdomen. When I laid down to go to bed around midnight...

    Well the colonoscopy is over with. Hurray!! Actually it was not that bad. Wednesday was the worst of it with the prep and all. I did not swing at anyone this time. I think they remembered from the EGD and we were all joking about it. They must have given me more of the diprovan (sp?) this time. It took a lot longer to come out of it. From what my...

    Well I just got back from preregistering for the colonoscopy this Thursday. Oh boy. I have always heard about the amount of liquid prep and they were not kidding. Between the liqid diet, the bisacodyl tablets and the nearly gallon of the GoLytely to mix up, that should make for a really fun day Wednesday after no sleep from working all night Tuesday. ...

    Hi! I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience. When I went to the GI doctor for my initial visit he sent me home with a hemacult test to do, and if it came back positive he wanted to do a colonoscopy. I decided to do the EGD with biopsy first. Well obviously got my answer from the biopsy, so I blew off doing the hemacult test. Well...

    I wish getting through to my family was a little easier. I think my dad will get screened since I believe he thinks he has nothing to worry about anyway. My mom just gets mad at me anytime I mention it to her like I am blaming her for me. That is just not true. I just think she is in denial and has an unconscienous fear that she may have it and does not...

    Hi! You will have to pardon me, I am new to these forums and really dont' know how to navigate all that well. I have two boys age 7 and 3. I had their allergist/immunologist order screening for them. They both have had issues. Long story short for the past 1 almost 2 years they have both dramatically improved and are hardly getting sick. My oldest had...

    I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in 2000 during my 3rd but 1st suscessful pregnancy. I was already being treated for an underactive tyroid before I got pregnant with my oldest son. Found out about half way thru the pregnancy it was Hashimoto's. I am recently diagnosed with celiac in Oct. this year. I know everyone has different advice so you just need...

    Nov. 29, 2008 I am new here on this forum and thought if I can share my experiences and others, it might make a difference. I was diagnosed in 2000 with an underactive thyroid and Hashimoto's disease after two miscarriages. I now have two beautiful sons born Feb. 2001 and Dec. 2004, but the rest of my Celiac disease story begins in Feb. 2006. ...
