  2. Thanks so much for all the great advice. I have been lactose intolerant my whole life. I discovered my soy intolerance after i was diagnosed with celiac. I am hyperglycemic so i do watch my sugars as well. I eat fruit and salad every day. never thought tomatos or peppers could be a problem. I think I will ask for the ELISA and find out what other allergies...

  10. Anyone wish they could have a Girl Scout Cookie? i am really missing thin mints and thanks a lots (no pun intended) I emailed GSA suggesting a gluten-free cookie and was quite disappointed with their repsonse. I am forwarding it on in case anyone else wants to write them with the suggestion that they come up with a gluten free cookie. With all kthe...

  12. I have had the same problem for several years now. I cramp in my toes, hands, and legs. my mom always said grab on to something metal thats cold and squeeze. beleive it or not it works! I tried magnesium but it didn't help. I started doing a lot of walking and that has helped with night cramps. I also take an excercise class that invloves a lot of...
  13. Yes! it is a huge pain to clean it all the time.
  14. have him read up on it. i emailed my family several articles I found online to help them understand. the gluten free bible is an excellent book. I am in the same shape you are. not only can you not use contaminated products, you have to be sure your toaster and microwave are clean as well. hang in there-it gets better.
