  1. Hi & Welcome Does your daughter's hair fall out all over or in balding patches??? Does she take multi mins & vits daily? You can learn alot on this board-- a great group.... I do not have a support group close enough so this is my lifeline so to speak. My final thought about you saying her thyroid levels were normal.We all don't fit in that...
  2. Jersey Angel We must have gone to the same school ,I too say pigs in a blanket is "Halupky" but I think the younger ones say they are the hot dog all wrapped up.... Water Chesnuts wrapped in bacon is a good one too.. mamaw
  3. Kathy Sorry but I never heard of not being able to digest a capsule so I can't help with that. But perhaps mixing the powder with applesauce or pudding might make it go down easier. Just a thought. That way something else would be in your stomach to make digesting easier. blessings mamaw
  4. Welcome Sue F. Just wanted to say welcome & give it some time to sink in. It is a shock to try to change a lifetime of wheat & gluten. It will work itself into your lifestyle , just don't get overwehlmed. Take it slow & start out with veggies, meats, & fruits you know are safe. Add new things as you find they are gluten free. Clan Thompson...
  5. Hi Lisa Hugs to you!! Family members can be soooo cruel at times.. But I agree with the others messages to you. And in as much as you don't want to move out that is probably gonna be your best move. That way you will control all aspects of your gluten free lifetstyle. My family was not supportive & now maybe one of them is looking at a celiac dx, after...
  6. I too found I could not enter the site yesterday. I always think its me doing something wrong but I knew the site must have been down .. Now, here we go again learning all the new stuff...... Thanks Scott for keeping this site up & running... I would be lost if you ever stopped... This site is my lifeline to celiacs as there is no close-by support...
  7. Can you pass a written drivers exam ? Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link
  8. I haven't seen a well trained man in this lifetime!!!! Only kidding...I do know if you find one you'd better keep that info to yourself or other celiac ladies will be after him!!!!!!! When I started out my soul mate was the same way until I got sick.He kept asking what happened so I then let him have it ... After I got over my rant I asked kindly that...
  9. okay don't buy the soy flour!!! I really think you can make some excellent things with the flours you have on hand now.....I can't use much soy as I react weirdly to it........ Hope this helps.. mamaw
  10. If your looking for places to buy gluten-free , there is a new Trade Joe's in Pittsburgh. Plus the East End Coop... I still shop in McMurray at Sunnybridge. They have a large selection. I eat at eatnpark alot & never had a problem..... mamaw
  11. Lisa sorry your having a misable day. I hope it gets better & you ace all the finals.. mamaw
  12. I agree with all the other posters suggestions & tips. I think the girl is trying to goat you & perhaps trying to be a smart a__. Some people are just cruel & enjoy it. Since you have already spoken to her about it I think I also would speak to the doctor. This stuff is bad enough but in a medical profession for someone to do that is just bad...
  13. I think the only way to be totally gluten-free without any worries would be to wash all cooking items in scalding soapy hot water. And from there cook everything that goes into your mouth. I truly think it is very hard not to get a crumb from somewhere or to breathe in .... Everyone of us react differently to foods,soaps & shampoo, so what fits one...
  14. I take vits & minerals on a regular basis. In the world as it is today all of our foods have been altered in some shape or form. They do not contain the nutrients they used to have. We are not eating the same as our forefathers..... the foods have definitely been changed & not for the better.. When you do take supplements you need to take the very...
  15. For Canadian Karen--- I never had to sign anything in regards to Bio_Set testing. But I don't know what Canada's laws are in regards to practitioners. That may be a common practice for your country...I myself would never sign a waiver. I could go on & tell you all how many times Bio-set has helped me ,physically, emotional, thyroid issues, blood issues...
  16. Hi Everyone Just thought I'd add my two cents on this topic. Since I have severe reactions to mainstream drugs I use alternative ways if possible..Yes, there are quacks out there, but I firmly believe if you find a reputable practitioner these things work... It's hard for some who only believe in mainstream drugs (which by the way are foreign to our bodies...
  17. Hi Debmidge I haven't tried it but I hear it is very good... I haven't needed to order anything lately so that's why I haven't tried it.. If you order it please pm me & let me know what you think mamaw
  18. I travel around alot & I have never seen any gluten-free sandwich bread in service plaza's or even Pamela's individual cookie pkg. I just carry my own with me. I sometimes but a slice of gluten-free turkey breast & add it to my bread in the car.
  19. I've heard of an IV Push that is like a vitamin cocktail....Is this what you are thinking of?
  20. Hi Lauren & welcome It does take some time to really start to feeling better. Being tired is just one thing that alot of celiacs feel. You said your mother has been celiac for 10 years. Does she not eat any breads? You said you have not been eating as much & missing sandwichs & so on. I eat everything pretty much as I did before - just without...
  21. Today we finally got our first real snow of the season.....It's about a couple of inches with maybe more thru the night.... I spent most of my day outside.... It is soooo beautiful....... we own 50 acres away from where we live so I started walking only to find some A--hole or several a--holes shot & killed 6 deer on the property & left them lay...
  22. Msg has no gluten but I haven a terrible reaction to it as well as alot of people.... mamaw
  23. Thank is so nice that someone would do gluten-free baking for your Dad...A true friend indeed.... By mailorder there are many places you can get sweets from: Deby's , Denver: Grandma Ferdon's , Hayward,Ia. :Celiac Specialities, Michigan.And many more....Kathy's Creations , Ohio. These are a few of my favorites..... good luck & happy birthday to your...
  24. wow. that is great that the new kid on the block is wonderful & cheaper then Everybody eats.... I love competition. Now, if only it wouldn't be so hard to get the product.I can't understand why when someone has found a good thing that they want to make it difficult to find or order. I would think they would want all the exposure they could find before...
  25. I use Anna's mix all the time. On her website she states alot of hints , one is if the bread sinks reduce the water by 3 tbsp. Now this is for her mixes but I would think it would be helpful for any bread mix. I have the zojurushi machine & love it. I bake her bread mix on the quick wheat bread setting. 2 hrs.8min.I alway cool it down & then refrigerate...
