  1. You didn't say if you are sick in any way? If it were me I would do the diet and see how I felt. You know some never have any outward issues.Maybe the gene testing would also help you decide and the blood work if you haven't done that yet. good luck mamaw Sorry I reread and see that you already did the blood test. I've been having terrible brain...
  2. Fiddle-Faddle Did you have just therapy on your rotor cuff? If so I know several people who are using the cold laser for rotor cuff and having excellent results. I know it is a very new procedure and there is nothing painful to it. Very slick I think. I have used it for my neck pain and my hubby uses it for his knee ( he needs a replacement but is not...
  3. I loved Pamela's too but we all think Mona's is lighter and fluffier. I was surprised to think one could be better then Pamela's....Mona's mixes is from Washington state. I never liked pancakes in my pre gluten free days so my family laughs that I now like them. mamaw
  4. Hi Tiffany & Robbin I wish I could tell you more about the B-1 but Its winter here and I have the bottle in our fifth wheel and its in storage. I know years ago this was in Prevention Magazine plus several holistic docs also said its okay. I start taking it a few weeks before the skeeter season starts and I take only one extra a day. We used just about...
  5. Opps I forgot who said the vit. B's do not work for them,, sorry. Let me say that you need to take the straight vit B-1 by itself if you are getting the b-1 through the b-complex all together it is not enough. I take the complex b vits in my multi vit & mi but I also do the b-1 by itself. And maybe it will not help some people but I never had anyone...
  6. I don't know if there is a connection but I do know that if you take vit B-1 it will keep the pesty bugs at bay and eating up someone other than yourslf. When we were on our dream vacation to Alaska this past summer we hit several places in the Yukon that were horrible.I started the vit B-1 before I left home and my brother just laughed at me but when he...

    ARCHIVED Need To Vent

    I agree with others that you can learn more by doing your own research.I don't know when the U.S. doctors are going to figure this out that it isn't okay to cheat. It seems they no nothing about the effects on a persons system if they eat wheat & gluten. And then we pay them big bucks for their igorance. I know that our local gastro doc told my daughter...
  8. Hi Nantzie I haven't made the cream puffs but I know there are many versions that are wf/gluten-free out here.The funnel cake mix can be purchased through Marlene's mixes, she is from Texas. I do alot of researching for food items as I have two young grandchildren who are always looking for a new treat. mamaw
  9. I bought a zojirushi also and love it. I only eat anna's bread mix so I don't have any scratch recipes but there are many on this site. It cost about $200.00 but is well worth the price. Its a workhorse. mamaw
  10. fiddle-faddle No it wasn't the McKnight Rd one but before I was gluten-free I ate at that one and got a hair in my food and all they did was say I'm sorry, so actually this was my second and last visit to any BOB EVANS! The one I was at was in upper new york while I was on a mini get away.. Anyway I will not eat at any of them now. I also don't do Cracker...
  11. thanks, I got my kitchen aid for 05 christmas and been afraid to try it out so I will do your posted recipe thanks mamaw
  12. natzie What all do you buy from grandma ferdon's? I want to order from them so what's good? How bout their pasties? You can PM me if you like mamaw
  13. That's for the recipe .... If anyone has time to try it out would someone please PM me with the results?? Ihave been taxi driver for my adult son , he races motorcycles (semi-pro) and sustained an concussion last summer and now he is having post concussion symdrome , terrible pain and headaches that puts him down in a flash. I run to Pittsburgh several...
  14. Count me in for long eyelashes!!!!!!!!! They use to smear my glasses up so much that my eye doc would trim them. And I also have heard that long eyelashes and celiacs go hand in hand... I too wonder why that is? I think we need a outstanding doc who can answer all of our trivia questions.....I think its amazing all the different things people have alike and...
  15. I don't like Bob Evans period. When I asked about their breakfast menu so I could figure out what I could eat the waitress became so rude and she actually laughed at me. When I ordered an egg, bacon , and cubed potatoes she said I had to take the toast with it. I said no don't waste it as I again cannot eat it. Again she said I must and it was with the special...
  16. Anna sure has alot of fans out here because I thought I was her best PR person!!! I love her and her breads. I use the reg mix and have tasted the yf one. I like them both but I use the reg mix all the time... I do mine in a bread machine always As I don't have time to make from scratch... Lazy is what I should honestly say......Either way you can't go wrong...
  17. Do you use the butter flavored crisco for the shortening? And did you use a dough hook or a paddle when using a stand mixer? Sounds great. thanks mamaw
  18. Oops, I forgot to say that when I made it from a culture I never had strands of goo or strands in my drink!!!! Sorry but that would remind me of "snot" for lack of a better word. I don't think I would be able to drink that.... anyway if you do a google search there are a couple of sites that sell the culture for $19.95 then from there you will alway have...
  19. mango04 I really don't remember what the scoop was on it but it did give me energy and you do grow a fondness for the taste..It was fun making the culture and letting it grow. there probably is still a site somewhere on it.now that someone brought it up I want to make it again. I think that people were over drinking . I know some who used it for cancer...
  20. I used to make it from a culture at home. It is really weird looking but we had fun making it from scratch. It's been years since I made it but it did give me energy then something came out about it and I stopped drinking it. I also used it on my dog when he was sick. It kinda had a vinegar taste to it, but I'm sure the processed one is different.I don't...
  21. I was on cytomel for about 10 months and I felt like heaven then all of a sudden my heart would not settle down and my bp shot up to a horrible rate . after 8hours of trying to rest and bring it ddown on my own I ended up at the ER where I was put on a cardaizime drip (not sure of spelling) to bring my bp in a normal range.Oddly enough my thyroid started...
  22. I too started to get these painful foot cramps after being gluten-free for over 2 1/2 years. My feet just starts to get like its paraliyzed or like a spasm that will not go away.... mamaw
  23. Hi Linda welcome to the group. You will find and learn probably more than you ever wanted to know from this group.I am ever so grateful to find this group as I have learned tons of info. Smart group --- brighter than most doctors regarding celiacs!!! I'm from Pa and just a tad older than you!!!!! good luck mamaw
  24. Well add me to the list with fathers that have or had (in my case) this ugly disease. My dad was covered 90% of his body in the early 80's and in the hospital for 15 days. The dermatologist said the it was the worst case she had ever seen. He even bought his own puva lamp so he could take his treatments at home.....In fact I now would like to sell it since...
