ARCHIVED Protein... And Beef Jerky
LadyBugLuv replied to LadyBugLuv's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
thanks, guys . I'll have to look at those sites. I know, if the soy sauce substitute doesn't work for beef jerky, it still sounds yummy . I miss putting soy sauce and garlic powder on grilled ribs... so I am going to have to try that sometime! thanks again! -
Ok... so I am pregnant (going on 6 weeks)... and I just feel like I can't eat enough protein. I always craved it prior to my period too... but now I just feel like I need it more and more. I love beef jerky, and miss it. Especially now. haha. I can't find any that do not contain gluten or soy, and all the recipes I have for it contain soy sauce also...

Don't mind at all I was on birth control for roughly 3 years (started the month before we were married). I had to switch types a couple times due to side effects. Last year, I started having menopausal symptoms. I was 26. Not a good thing. My grandmother went through menopause at 38 and my aunt at 40 (looking back, I'm convinced my grandmother had...

Thanks lizsard00 . I did pick that book up from the library yesterday, and my sister is getting me a copy from a book exchange thing she does... so far it's pretty interesting. this is our first, and they are a surprise . I will be sure to stock up on good gluten-free snacks and easy prep foods. My naturopathic doctor has me on some supplements (along...

Just found out I'm about 4.5 weeks along. It was, of course, a surprise (see the topic haha) . I've never tried to conceive before, so I don't know if I would have had problems... I know my hormones were a mess. I've been gluten free for about a week longer than I've been pregnant. haha. so apparantly, it was easy for me. Does anyone have any good...

ARCHIVED I'm Hungry
LadyBugLuv replied to JBaby's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I can relate... gluten free for about a month, (and I had been for a bit before that, too, while on an elimination diet...) and it seems my appetite is HUGE. I can't seem to get enough to eat, ever. I ate 6 tacos for dinner, and I didn't even feel full. 6 tacos!!!! I always used to get bloated and uncomfy, and my stomach would stick out, and I'd have... -

ARCHIVED Experience With Parasites?
LadyBugLuv replied to mellowyellowmushroom's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Actually, I found out that I had a parasite before I found out about anything else... I got tired of the run around from every doctor on the planet, and decided to go to a chiropractor who is certified in naturopathic medicine and applied kinesiology. Not quite sure how it all works, but it does. Somehow, he figured out I had a parasite. So I took... -
ARCHIVED Annoying Muscle Twitches And More :)
LadyBugLuv posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Does anyone get annoying muscle twitches? Like the kind you get when your eye pulsates, but ALL over your body? Like in your arms... legs... side... buttocks... you can visibly see your body twitch, too. It doesn't hurt, but it's annoying! Also, does anyone get a really hot face/head for no reason (no fever)? And how about where it feels like your... -
ARCHIVED Do You Have These Symptoms Too?
LadyBugLuv replied to CeliaCelia's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I've had the nausea, the acne, the warts (when I was a kid... I had a lot of them on my hands), the feeling of hypoglycemia and the need to eat every few hours... I guess I never thought the acne or warts could be connected... Kind of frustrated w/ acne, because you think you'd outgrow it by the time you are in your late 20's... haha. haven't had the... -
ARCHIVED Is This A Symptom?
LadyBugLuv replied to LadyBugLuv's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Well, thanks.... there are quite a few of them, and no, no children . No miscarriages either. I was on bc, and was having major issues w/ that, and stopped about a year ago. they started when I was on it. but I had been on it for a while, (2.5 years or a little more at that point... started it when I got married). thanks -
Ok... I know this isn't the newest thread... but Hooray for fellow Pennsylvanians I'm originally from RI, but went to Duquesne out in Pittsburgh, PA, and now live in Lancaster County, PA . We love it. I work in Harrisburg, too. exciting.

ARCHIVED Is This A Symptom?
LadyBugLuv posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Just wondering... I had lost about 20lbs 2 years ago or so, and it was then that I developed 4 vertical red lines on my lower abdomen. Since then I've developed a lot more. I did put the weight on, and off again. But they didn't develop when I gained weight, but lost it. Odd. Almost remind me of when someone has a baby, but I never have been pregnant... -
ARCHIVED Should I Be Tested For Celiac?
LadyBugLuv replied to LadyBugLuv's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Well, it's only been about almost 2 weeks. but I haven't actually seen my family doctor since I've figured this out with my chiropractor. He's liable to laugh me off or try to cram unnecessary medicines down my throat... what would the blood test show that the saliva test didn't? The saliva test was showing antibodies to gliadin/gluten... I guess normal... -
ARCHIVED Should I Be Tested For Celiac?
LadyBugLuv posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I have spent a good year trying to figure out what was wrong with me... i had seen the family doctor numerous times, an opthamologist, a gynecologist, a rheumatologist, and an endocrinologist... I had numerous blood tests - all coming back normal (mostly thyroid, and autoimmune related), and a whole series of x-rays. I had HORRIBLE fatigue (especially mid... -

ARCHIVED Celiac Disease Body Type?
LadyBugLuv replied to r0ckah0l1c's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
growing up I could eat for a family of 5 and you could still see my ribs... haha. those days are gone. it caught up w/ me. but most of my weight is in my gut, and I do have the bloated belly (though it goes away with gluten free... so great to have my pants/skirts fit again! ... ) and I've always complained because I have no fanny. it's wide and... -

ARCHIVED What Else Can I Eliminate? I Still Don't Feel Better.
LadyBugLuv replied to B R I A N A's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Yeah, I agree... soy seems to actually make me feel worse than gluten... I get incredibly nauseous from it (even the soy lecithin in chocolate, sad to say)... and I did test positive for an intolerance to gluten and soy. funny thing is, as a baby, I was on soy formula because I couldn't have the dairy kind... go figure. and like gluten, soy is in...
