    Hi everyone, I saw a few threads on Mohegan Sun but they're a couple years old. I'm heading to the casino in Uncasville, CT and am looking for ideas for Gluten Free Friendly places to eat. I know that Margaritaville has a fantastic menu, and we plan on going to the Michael Jordan Sports Bar for burgers (mine without a bun...and hopefully with something...

    ARCHIVED New To Milford, Ct

    Hey everyone, I just moved to Milford, CT and need a new primary care physician and GI. Anyone have any tips?

    the Larabars are good but can be pricey, i tend to stock up when they're on sale. they're gluten, dairy, and soy free, vegan, kosher, unprocessed, raw, and have no gmo or added sugar....yet they still have flavor, it's pretty amazing!

    i don't think the betty crocker mixes are out but you should try the Bob's RedMill gluten free chocolate cake mix, it's really good.

    i just tried food from george's english muffins...so good for egg sandwiches! I haven't tried to make pizzas yet with them but i think it will be a success also, the against the grain sun dried basil and tomato bagels are fantastic. things like this make me so happy i love good gluten free carbs

    you're an amazing friend. really, you are. 1) i prefer lactaid milk over soy milk, it tastes almost exactly the same, it's just a little bit sweeter. 2) butter has dairy in it as well, and if she has celiac she most likely cannot process dairy either, at least for now. i would get her a tub of the Simply Smart "butter" spread...it's not too expensive...

    That makes me so happy!! I'm pumped to have more variety in our cereal selection. I went onto the general mills website and sent them a thank you for making more of their cereals gluten free. hopefully it makes someone's day when they're sifting through all of the questions and complaints and they get one that's actually happy,

    i'm going to try joans tomorrow as long as the store still has them when i go! do you guys happen to know how much shipping usually is for the georges food? it won't tell me unless i order something..

    I used to get migraines very often and Excedrine Migraine, a cold eye covering, and a very cold bathroom floor were always my solution (it often made me vomit as well). Stress and my period would give me migraines...maybe the gluten mixed with the stressful day caused yours?

    It can be really tough at first but it does get easier. Although reading labels is usually very helpful, things that say "Natural Ingredients" may contain barley which we cannot have. Also, almost all "normal" cereals, including rice cereals, have "malt flavoring" which is made from barley. Most deli meets have gluten in them as well as some chip flavorings...

    thanks so much! I guess the sell them at a natural food store near me so I'll definitely check them out.

    I haven't read all of the replies so I apologize if I'm just reiterating things. It does really suck especially when everyone's like "Let's go out for Chinese food!" which we can't eat, or at a Mexican place I can't eat at. I'm a girl but I hang out with almost all guys, so it's not like I can be like "Guys, it's really getting on my nerves when you make...

    I was at my friend's house last night and she made pizza on an english muffin. i miss those sooo much! do you know of any bagels or english muffins that would be good for making pizza bagels or pizza english muffins? thank you!

    I'm a junior in college in Rhode Island and I just got diagnosed this October after being sick for a good 6 or 7 years. It is really tough being at school because the dining halls don't cater to this if they even know about it. I don't have a meal plan because I live off campus with a couple friends, but one of the cooks in our dining hall has celiac so...

    Hi AliBell! I don't have a mealplan but apparently one of the cooks in Butterfield has celiac, so they have kinnikinik bread and stuff there, and he's really nice and willing to tell you everything you can eat. There still aren't very many options on campus. I tend to bring rice crackers or rice cakes and peanut butter, fruit, envirokids bars (I'm pretty...

    a lot of people have mentioned that they have gotten more sensitive as time goes on, so maybe you're getting more sensitive to the corn and/or butter as well. You could try a popcorn that's butter free to see if it still makes your feel better and narrow down the problem.

    Nature Made are labeled Gluten Free on the bottle and aren't that expensive. They were just on sale at Stop & Shop for buy one get one free and at CVS for buy one get one half off so they probably go on sale often.

    I would also print out some of the posts in here about parents saying how badly gluten changes they're childrens' behavior... https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/lofivers...php/t10602.html https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/index.ph...;show=&st=0 i know there are more than this as well, they should show her that it seriously affects behavior....

    ARCHIVED Recommend A Doctor In You State

    mindiloo replied to a topic in Doctors

    Dr. Murdocco 360 Kingstown Rd Narragansett, RI 02882 401 789 0226 He has Celiac himself and was the first person, after six years of tests and "I don't know"s from other doctors, to even consider the possibility of Celiac. He's awesome, understanding, and really nice.

    that is odd, i would tell your doctor and see what he/she thinks. it could be psychological, you always go to the same thing to make you feel better so when you eat them you automatically think oh hey this makes me feel better, then you feel better.
  22. mindiloo
    thanks for your replies, it's good to know that it's pretty common. if i find any way to help it i'll be sure to let you all know!

    I've been gluten free since October but my stomach is still really loud, especially when I'm laying down. I'll be laying on the couch or in bed and my stomach just yells at me, it can be pretty loud sometimes! It happens when I'm hungry, full, satisfied, anything. It is pretty annoying, especially when I'm around people. Any ideas of what's causing it...

    I really like the Envirokids cereals, and depending on where you get them they're not too expensive. You can buy them in bigger bags at Whole Foods which makes it cheaper. I love Rice Chex- you can eat them plain as cereal or add bananas or craisons, put them in a baggie for a snack and add craisons to that too, make them into Muddy Buddies for snacks...

    when I first went to my allergist to find out what was going he asked me what my nationalities were and when I said that I'm Irish and Italian he responded "Oh you didn't want to tell me that." I blame my parents for all of this hahah I'm not sure where it originated, but apparently Celiac is the most prevalent genetic disease in Italy, and it's also quite...
