  1. Yeah, my wife has been going through everything and trying to catch the hidden ones. Now I am pondering whether I should invest in gluten free stock somewhere... Schar?
  2. Thanks guys for your feedback, i guess its live and learn. Have a good holiday! A
  3. Hi All, its been a while since I wrote. I self diagnosed my problem and have been enjoying a gradually better and better life now that I now what was hurting me. It was a miracle. But Like most celiacs I have been surpised and on recent travels deeply frustrated at attitudes at some restraunts and even friends. Granted they dont know much better, and we have...
  4. Yes, we cook in most of the time but this kind of resulted as the final nail in going out. Today on the other hand we went to a Barcelona store that had "celiac safe buns" I was asked to make my special hamburgers. For the others however they got normal buns. Upon getting home and sitting down later to dinner we tried them and they fell apart like sawdust...
  5. Hey all, Not much of a complainer but I am in Barcelona and my wife and I were hoping for a good restaurant moment when we dropped by one that was recommended. We ordered the black paella (arroz negro) and octopus. We had our celiac card info saved on our iphone and it explained in spanish at least what the things were to look out for. The waitress called...
  6. Addressing Testing, just FYI, If I had to do it over again I would be tested, however I dont dare to eat any gluten again based on my reactions. Its just too terrible to go back. But I am loving life being off it. And uh, my wife is much happier too knowing I am not always in a stupor and more alert!
  7. Oh man, I had no idea. Well thanks for letting me know. I use all kinds from Old Holland to Rembrandt and some cheaper brands....depends on whats needed. I will keep an eye out.
  8. Hi All, The mind fog was like a cobweb sitting over my brain. I would have trouble processing information, and seemed strangely enough to focus more in my immediate area visually. Like I was struggling to just get around. Thats been strange being off gluten, its as if I can see further, but its simply a clearer head I think. I was diagnosed with ADD...
  9. I just wanted to report in and say despite me not being tested I have witnessed a miracle since going gluten free! Acid Reflux/Heart Burn- Gone Dark Circles under my eyes- Gone Bleeding from the end...- Gone Extreme Fatigue- Going (I can now go out more easily and dont feel like only one outing in a few days is the max) Irritable Stomach-Gone Uh, gas...
  10. Yeah for me it was thinking I was Hypoglycemic, once when I was on the short end of money, I reverted to just eating sandwiches, basically wheat overload. I lost 20lbs in one month and had heart palpitations. The dietician showed me a food chart! She said I was not eating enough...well, I was eating okay, just all wheat based things. I stay away from...
  11. Oh, it was just the wheat in the sauce I think. I am okay with other soy products, thanks for you comment. A
  12. Yes thanks, I am just 35 and thought, well I am getting old, but everyone around me was not having the same problems...
  13. So I have been gluten free now for two months, and I wanted to state not only has my constant mind fog dissapeared but I seem to be seeing farther. Or rather, I have the feeling I am seeing farther. For years, and especially in the last 3 it was as if I would look only 50 feet from me. As if my brain would register a "sight zone" at a certain distance. Now...
  14. Amazing, I have been gluten free for almost two months now and I have noticed something nice. I am eating less and very gradually losing weight. I almost always used to get 2-3 portions, at least two at each meal. Now I find I can stop after one serving! It occurred to me that this could be that I am getting my nutrients that I long was without. I am taking...
  15. Adding to the chorus, I recently discovered I had celiac disease, my poor wife was putting up with my breath for years, but since i removed gluten its relatively gone. I also thought it was stress related, but no matter what I did to help I had no relief. Sort of fermented dead mouse smell....pretty bad.
  16. update, it seems I started something across my family. One brother who suffered the same symptoms, with bleeding, dark circles under his eyes, extreme fatigue, depression, also eczema and other things tried going off wheat for 3 days and some of the symptoms stopped. He was convinced enough to get tested, hes a bit more skeptical and loves junk food so he...
  17. Thanks for the supportive reply. You know there was a period 7 years ago where I lost 25lbs in like 6 weeks, I had heart palpatations as well. I was checked out and they could not find anything wrong with me at the time. But again they had not done any bloodtests, just heart monitoring and although they saw it, they thought it must be somehow generated by...
  18. Well I say internal but it was some more bleeding from...well the end. I will see about a doctor again. I did see one several years ago and had a colonoscopy but they said I was fine. But they did say it might be an allergy. I dont know why they did not do any blood work. Yeah, I just feel so much better and do not have the problems I had before. I'll see...
  19. Thanks, but im afraid now to go back since I had such a bad reaction to trying Rye. Is it really worth getting exposed again?
  20. Wow, three weeks ago I started the south beach diet and within 5 days I started feeling different, internal bleeding stopped, IBS stopped, heartburn disapeared, I had more energy, and most interesting it is as if I can even see farther. Before it was like living in a fog. Even my ADD seems to be better when I am off wheat products. However this weekend...
