  2. well, let me tell you your goodie tray is beautiful...... let me say it again beautiful........Your knitting is also beautiful. And I do agree selling handmade clothing would be less hassle for sure... The Food laws in the US are difficult to say the least.. I still think if you made gluten-free goodies for your support...
  3. You got some great replies...all are pretty much on target.. Do you belong to a support group? Many gluten-free bakers start out selling at their group meeting...most would know you & be willing to buy... But state & local laws can be rough in some places.How close is the nearest gluten-free bakery? Many states...
  4. did they take several biopsies when you had the endo done? I too am thyroidless from RAI...plus several other autoimmune disorders...it appears once your get one autoimmune more follows..... You can develop sensitivity at any time... There are many who only have anemia & docs put hem on a gluten-free diet.... Lost...
  5. there are several places to get tested for foods allergies....Not sure if all insurances would pay for it... have you thought about the roughage you consumed. some of the healthy foods can cause problems for us sensitive people. You had lots of nuts, split peas, kale, lentils..... that would be way to much for me.... Other things...
  6. There are celiac people who never get their levels down......also dairy is broken down at the tips of the villi too....
  7. hope things pass quickly ( no pun intended)....... a suggestion would be to take gluten ease or something similar before going out to any function that you don't know for sure about CC...it will not stop the reaction but may help ease the reaction some...I've been glutened by a family member for my 60 th b-day celebration......
  8. I love the book by Cleo Libonati, RN,BSN called"Recognizing celiac disease" It has been around for many years but oh what an insight on celiac..... it may be over kill for some but it tells it all....it may be over a lay person's knowledge or even caring to know but I love it...No bars held back....here.. For people...
  9. welcome It doesn't sound like your doctor is very knowledgeable about gluten. Could you seek out another doc? Many just never learned anything about this in med school your doc is not singled out there are thousands of them! I've been celiac for eleven years now along with daughter & two grandkids.... I think for ...
  10. We have made this recipe off the net for several years.. while it is good I'm lazy in my old age & we really like amy's tomato bisque with grilled cheese sammies.... By the way if you want a cracker that is most like a saltine try galbusa ..... very popular & good..... they have been available for several years...
  11. I think one of the hardest lessons in life is: we can't fix everything & make it all better ie: loosing a loved one to cancer for instant..... Do consider that you are having issues because you are still knew to the gluten-free ....not everyone gets better at t he same rate...some have a quick turn-a-round others it...
  12. remember how hard it is to understand this illness even, celiac folks have trouble understanding this at the beginning...as annoying as being asked constantly how you are someone truly loves you & cares for your well being....& if they are not experiencing the symptoms how could they understand when at times...
  13. hello.. here my opinion on a few of your ?'s......You could be celiac or gluten sensitive. Have you had your gallbladder checked? From years of being gluten-free I've always heard one should rotate their probiotic, not using the same one over & over for months..Have you tried digestive enzymes before meals? digestive...
  14. antibiotics are known for causing allergy type symptoms.....

  16. You can always google gluten-free breads for a bread machine.....I use breads by anna bread mixes in my machine... never had a problem I just reduce the liquid....
  17. Hello The only thing that can heal celiac is a 100% , 24/7 gluten free lifestyle.... digestive enzymes & probiotics can help along the way.... the digestive issues can take time to heal so stick to the gluten-free diet.... I do believe in essentials oils , but I have not seen any thing about this product you...

Nature's Pantry in anchorage has gluten-free foods.... Mrs...
  21. wow. sounds like a great experience.... Mu suggestion as an old time celiac(10+ years) would be to carry a gluten-free food pack with you for an emergency in your luggage.....and research , research, research the places where you will be traveling....in this day & age most places in the world gluten-free food can be found...
  22. sorry your school is so rotten....there are many of them....Have you considered a private school? Home schooling? We too have never had a problem with the kids being celiac until high school......it appears kids in high school skip & miss a lot of school so all pays for that! I honestly think home school would...
  23. glad you are finding some goodies you like! Try Van's cheese crackers.....Glutino or Snyder's gluten-free pretzels....Glutino parmesan/garlic crisps...plus soooo many more.....
  24. We have had two kids with celiac from grade school up to now high school.....I don't truly understand why but many teachers love to reward the students with candy, junk food*!*! what's wrong with that ? What's wrong with a new pencil or a non-food item... Kids in grade school usually have a B-day party with every kid...
