ARCHIVED Substitute For Pretzels To Help With Nausea
GottaSki replied to jackibar's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I find this thread interesting...with each pregnancy - long before I was dx'd I could only keep "oatzels" down -- they don't sell them anymore to my knowledge. Our family likes glutino pretzels very much, but have heard many times Snyder's are the best. -
ARCHIVED Anyone Take Activated Charcoal?
GottaSki replied to jasonD2's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Have no idea...did use on occasional evenings in my youth when we knew we "might" drink to much. I can tell you there is no "easy button" or "magic wand" when planning accidental gluten or dairy consumption. Do your homework and you to can travel safe. -

ARCHIVED Lab Results - Disappointed A Little
GottaSki replied to jackibar's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi Jacki-- This is actually very good news. The truth is gluten can cause very serious symptoms and health consequences even when it is "just" Non-Celiac Gluten Intolerance. Remove ALL gluten for at least three months -- I generally insert (six is better here) -- in your case I think six months to a year may be essential. Nonspecific symptoms that... -
ARCHIVED Afraid Yet Optimistic, For My Husband
GottaSki replied to nicoleashley's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
This is great news...most especially is your GI's analysis -- this is not common, but it should be. Caution -- Non-Celiac Gluten Intolerance can be just as severe in the areas of cross-contamination. Your husband will likely know if he is sensitive to minute amounts of gluten after a solid 3-6 months gluten-free. Congratulations on the good news.... -
ARCHIVED Gingerbread Men Question
GottaSki replied to HiDee's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Oh good start...sorry yours were a bit different then mine. Yes...definitely took much more flour to roll these than the pre-gluten-free version. It's been a year so I forgot...I found that I used a really small portion at a time leaving several small balls in the frig -- I only baked one sheet at a time in the oven -- not both racks. If you still... -
I finally learned how to MultiQuote Dave is the only non-celiac in the house hence he eats mostly gluten-free and has seen health benefits over the past three years. He has increased his bicycle riding to hundreds of miles per month -- before my diagnosis he was fit but packing a lot of unexplained weight -- sound familiar? Yay...

ARCHIVED Hi All
GottaSki replied to bm1984's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Welcome Ben! You certainly could have Celiac Disease or Non-Celiac Gluten Intolerance. It is VERY important to have your doctor order a full celiac blood panel BEFORE you remove gluten from your diet. The antibodies measured in these tests are produced in reaction to gluten ingestion. Also a good idea to be tested for nutritional deficincies - celiac... -

Yep...there are issues with spellcheck and Firefox. If you clear your cache it may help. Switching to Google Chrome is a better solution. -
ARCHIVED 3 Weeks In: Will It Ever Get Better?
GottaSki replied to Hala's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Welcome Hannah! You've already got some great suggestions - YES it will get better given time. Time gluten-free is often the most important factor. Your body needs time to heal all the damage caused in your small intestine - your body will work hard to accomplish this and may leave you tired - especially in the early days. Because you mention you... -

ARCHIVED How Long Does It Take To Get Over Gluten?
GottaSki replied to DavinaRN's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
It would be difficult to find a deli capable of producing food that is not cross contaminated. At 5 weeks you could be becoming more sensitive to the smaller amounts of gluten associated with CC. Take a careful assessment of your diet to remove any possible remaining gluten. Hang in there - I remember well the frustration that came along with... -
Ok...if any other kindle users stumble across this thread... When using the kindle fire's "web" browser feature with celiac.com once you enter a post you are switched to mobile mode automatically and the "Full Version" toggle button is then revealed. I will check if there is a url or other method to get to mobile mode without posting.

ARCHIVED Coughing As Symptom
GottaSki replied to SarahBear's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Isn't that amazing - my nonceliac hubby is mostly gluten-free as our house is - as his time mostly gluten-free has increased his minor pains and weight issues are vanishing - he seems to be getting younger rather than older -
Technology lessons suck - I am thankful one of my sons has the tech gift like me so I've been able to pawn some of my folks electronic house calls to him - its a win win - when he goes they give him $20 and I am far less frustrated - when I go I get stuck there and never receive a tip

ARCHIVED Coughing As Symptom
GottaSki replied to SarahBear's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Ps He is currently drinking nettle tea each day to see if it helps with his sinus inflammation - it seems to be helping - he has regained some sense of smell and his cough seems to be slightly improved - no promises, but it might be worth a try. -
ARCHIVED Coughing As Symptom
GottaSki replied to SarahBear's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Understand completely - the son I mention has been coughing consistently in the morning for over 10 years - it is far better gluten-free, but sadly remains unresolved. He has tried removing other foods and likely will give an elimination diet another shot - he's just not ready right now. -

GottaSki replied to jess-gf's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Triple batch sounds like a splendid idea - throw a ribbon on top and it becomes a great gift for all my bacon lovers - haven't even made it and I already know we'll need separate jars for each of my men or arguments will ensue. Thanks L2T!
