ARCHIVED My Histamine Journey
GottaSki replied to FruitEnthusiast's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
So sorry to read this...can honestly say without any humor at all...been there, done that. Perhaps tell me what you know you can eat. I am a magician at turning 20 safe foods (individual ingredients) -- yep that is all i had for a very long time -- into very real meals. Hang in there - breath - and take one step at a time. -
ARCHIVED Dr. Fasano's Gluten Freedom Discussion

My copy arrived last week...can't wait to read it! -
If my response was perceived as aggressive -- it could not be further from the truth. I'm all about the research -- I'm returning to school at my old age to - hopefully - obtain a Chemistry degree and become a real live medical researcher - rather just playing one in hyperspace. I said clearly that I don't think the OP should resume a gluten filled...

ARCHIVED My Histamine Journey
GottaSki replied to FruitEnthusiast's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
IMO...since you have removed a great many foods besides histamines and had a marked improvement since the elimination of histamines -- I would stay strict with the low histamine diet while taking the time needed to safely trial all the other foods you have removed. Took me nearly six months to trial each food (not food group) individually during the... -

There are indeed a multitude of presentations within Celiac Disease, yet as it stands today -- there is only one treatment which is the complete avoidance of the gluten protein. If you decide to return to eating gluten, I suggest you gather real data while you are experimenting with your health. Before you start, have a complete celiac antibody panel...

We have the three ring binder that started the day I went gluten free with the dividers -- Still use an old copy of 'Better Homes "New" Cookbook' for basic "stuff" and of course there is now a laptop on the kitchen counter that didn't live there a few years ago. -

Ok...just printed this recipe to put in the old-fashioned paper notebook. Variations were: I used one 3 pound pork butt roast -- cheap, tender and what happened to be in my freezer Used all the left over juices as gravy -- next time I may even increase the sauce ingredients and use a larger roast so we can have encores. This made enough... -

Roast was AWESOME and everybody loved it -- was nice new flavor -- funny it kinda smelt like I was serving good hot dogs with the works during the first hours of cooking -- J came home and started salivating around 2pm and the smell got much better/richer. I have to print the recipe...I didn't look at it after I loaded the pot, so not sure if it suggests... -
ARCHIVED Waiting On Daughters Biopsy Results, And Have A Question.
GottaSki replied to mom2J's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Anxiety is a fairly common symptom of Celiac Disease. My now 20 year old son with celiac disease had mild anxiety as a child that worsened in his teens. He removed gluten at 15 - it took a few years for his anxiety to subside, but it did improve. Today he has no more than occasional situational anxiety. As your daughter's time gluten-free increases... -

Great Idea...hmmm is 6am too early to start on wine? Perhaps I'll move the magical bath to bedtime -- some say epsom salt is better at night. PS...the pork roast in the crock smells amazing -- sides turned out to be simple rice and honey carrots. -

yep, lucky us like Irish...my history with being dismissed or misdiagnosed by a multitude of doctors is the reason I hang around here -- shouting at times -- proper testing, proper testing, proper testing -- do not remove gluten before you have been properly tested Have also got my primary, OB/Gyn and allergist all testing (full celiac antibody... -

GottaSki replied to gaufu's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
If your vitamin deficiencies improve on a gluten free diet -- that is another piece of the puzzle. Would be nice to have a certain answer -- but this may be one of those that removing gluten is what is needed to confirm you have an issue with gluten. Hope that makes sense. Take a read through this thread...it has wonderful info to help fast forward... -

I'm double DQ-2 and single DQ-8 .... can trace symptoms to back to when I was a toddler. I was chubby with chronic constipation (I didn't know it wasn't normal to not go for a week as a child because no one talked about such things and tummy aches were met with a toughen up attitude)...I simply was not allowed to be sick so I didn't complain much -- it... -

Happy Easter Addie and Hubs!!! Ruth...I buy locally...we have it several places, but recently found a market that sells it for 4.59 compared to 5.99 everywhere else -- used to pay 6.89 for it when it first came out -- the men didn't get it much then.
