    "But this guy claims he can tell (possibly) if a person is Celiac after they have adopted a gluten-free diet and have healed? That's a first!" You're right, Gemini - it really doesn't make sense. If he can tell I had damage in the past then why the heck would I need to do the challenge at all. Good point. I have a lot to think about. Unfortunately...

    wow good post. i was an terribly anxious child, just terrified of everything. when i got into college i had major panic attacks and have had 2 two-year periods in my life of being on anti-depressants. the first round helped in 2000, later in 2005 the drugs made me into a zombie (slow moving, lack of personality, just droning along) and also made me...

    I really like the Whole Foods brand, "365" I believe it is. The pancakes are light and fluffy and delicious! I believe there is milk in the mix, so caution there I tried Trader Joe's gluten-free pancake mix and both my fiance (not celiac) and I felt HORRIBLE after eating them. They sat like a huge brick in our stomachs and we both were uncomfortably...

    one more question! This reminded me...GI had paperwork from a biopsy that i didnt even know about in 2006 when I went in for upper endoscopy for gastritis. Results just said "normal" He said they might have done the biopsy because I was low in iron, but at that time i had none of these symptoms i had now. He also said they might have been sampling a different...

    Hi and thank you so much for reading my post. I agree that it seems ridiculous to do this to myself with the slim chance of a diagnosis. The doctor seems concerned about gluten-free, that it is such a restrictive diet, but I am already on it anyway. And chances are the biopsy will be negative, he said so himself, and then I'll be exactly where I am now...

    Hi everyone, I have been wheat-free since December and Gluten-avoiding since January, and am feeling 1000 times better. I have had unexplained chronic fatigue and anemia in the past as well as a few kidney stones. I am a 28 year old, 5'7" female. I normally weigh about 117, but by 2008 I had gone up to 136. Then I started having chronic constipation...

    thank you ravenwood! i checked out the site, the plant base ones looked good for me also, if anyone is interested, i bought a brand in whole foods called "source naturals - daily essential enzymes" that were hypo-allergenic and plant-based for a lot less $ than i was paying for the garden of life pills ~newburyport

    Hi Everyone, I have read every post I could search for about maltase/malt diastase/maltodextrin and it seems like everyone agrees that they may not be safe for celiacs. I just ran out of my Garden of Life - Omega Zyme digestive enzymes and realized after a few days that I was having less constipation than usual. After reading the label I noticed they...

    Hi Friends, I've only just begun figuring this all out - but I'm definitely allergic to wheat, probably celiac (history of fatigue, anemia etc)...have been having crazed bloating & constipation all year. Like my digestion just came to a halt. Just went to naturopath a few weeks ago.. -on anti-inflammatory/hypoallergenic diet for 3 weeks -2 weeks...

    Hi there, I am a 28 year old, 120 lb. female, generally healthy until about a year ago when I started having constipation, bloating and styes on my eyes every single day. One eye, then the other, top lid, bottom lid, totally random. I would wake up with my eyes sort of crusty or stuck closed. My opthamologist told me I had blepharitis and suggested...
