ARCHIVED Do You Think A Person Can "recover" From Gluten Intolerance?
GottaSki replied to Monklady123's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
No. My guess is her symptoms will return in time if she was NCGI or Celiac Disease -- there are those diagnosed with Celilac Disease that have no gastro reaction to gluten ingestion -- also she was gluten-free for long enough to heal damage to her small intestine (if there was damage) and it may take some time for the damage to return which will bring... -

ARCHIVED Yay More Coupons!
GottaSki replied to powerofpositivethinking's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Just an update to amazon's subscribe and save program...originally it was an automatic extra 15% savings off their already low prices on gluten-free items -- as long as you are willing to purchase 4, 6 or 12 packs of things. Then it changed to 5% auto savings...I just realized if you have 5 subscribe and save items ship in the same month they all receive... -
Anyone remember the old make the high school girls carry around a ten pound bag of flour or sugar for a day to get the message across that teenage pregnancy aint as cute as it looks??? I propose all journalists that wish to discuss food allergies and or any "gluten people" issue MUST order and eat completely gluten free / nut free in every every restaurant...

GottaSki replied to greenbeanie's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It can be genetic -- I have a friend that went white in his 20s...he remains the picture of health in every way. just saying for me...seems it was an indication of malabsorption -
ARCHIVED Mushroom (Neroli) Memorial Thread
GottaSki replied to Scott Adams's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Did you get it to Nicole? a few days ago there was a mushroom shoot in my grocery bag tomatoes -- got giggled at by someone whom has mushrooms everywhere this time of year -- but they are rare in my neck of the desert then yesterday I was watching the movie 'Epic' in 3D with the son -- in one scene the forest magically comes back to life and one of... -

ARCHIVED Rapidly Greying Hair While On Gluten Challenge?
GottaSki replied to greenbeanie's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I have gone prematurely gray twice!!! Once in my early 40s prior to diagnosis -- the graying slowed about 2.5 years gluten-free (timing of my complete elimination diet) --- sadly I had a few very bad autoimmune flares during years 3-4 and I went nearly gray --- Good NEWs -- I haven't had to dye my roots in over three months and I have only a few grays... -
ARCHIVED Why Do Potato Chips Have A Bad Reputation?
GottaSki replied to powerofpositivethinking's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I think I must have missed something...I would never suggest eating a whole bag of processed chips every day. -
ARCHIVED Why Do Potato Chips Have A Bad Reputation?
GottaSki replied to powerofpositivethinking's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Potato Chips are awesome! Until I get Potato and Sunflower Oil back...I make sweet potato chips and fries regularly... Salty chips are my absolute favorite late night snack -- ya, I know tis not good for me...but heck neither is the ice cream my hubs craves late at night! -

pineapple mint.... must find this along with the bright pink carrot seeds! -
This makes sense to me....as there is no way a Replicator will ever match L2T's culinary skill Even if you are not a science fiction fan....young JT Kirk would make a fantastic addition to our staff!

ARCHIVED My Only Celiac Friend Started Eating Gluten Again, And I Feel Alone.
GottaSki replied to rorenchan's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Welcome Back!!! Very sorry to hear your friend is dismissing the positive blood tests -- my guess is she will regret returning to eating gluten -- hope it is sooner rather than before irreparable damage happens. My advice for you is continue living your own gluten-free life -- take care of yourself -- maybe hang out here as there are many of us that... -
ARCHIVED Biopsy Results Inconclusive; Early Celiac, Sibo, Something Else?
GottaSki replied to NotMollyRingwald's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
So frustrating.... First -- not having the two genes generally tested for can NOT rule out Celiac Disease -- although my guess is you are carrying them. Second -- request a written or electronic copy of both the procedural report AND the pathology report and let us chime in if you feel comfortable to do so. Third -- the most important factor is... -
ARCHIVED Just Ate The Best Meal Of My Life In Croatia...

Hi ABQ-- I agree with what others have said above....thought I'd add if you want a good giggle...go back and read what some of us were posting our first months gluten-free -- we all stomped our feet threw a few pity parties and were at times pretty darn grumbly nearly all posts on this site come from a place of wanting to help others get through... -
Good to hear....let us know how it goes...oh I think we already told you --- but do request written or electronic copies of BOTH the Procedural Report & Pathology Reports!!!

ARCHIVED What Do You Miss The Most?
GottaSki replied to Slr38's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yep...good brownies are essential -- especially when going to a party, picnic or when those pesky "I can't have this or that" mood strikes! I'm copying Karen next time...I do everything but the raspberry -- that will kick it up a notch For Brownie Frosting I use: 2 cups choc chips 2 teaspoon vanilla 1 can sweetened condensed milk Melt in...
