    ARCHIVED Need Advice

    I suggest having your thyroid checked via bloodwork... TSH,T-4, T-3, FT-3_FT-4,reverse T-3, calicum, Vit D, & a complete physcial blood work -up....hormones levels also checked Also you mentioned B-12 being positive? What does that mean? Usually B-12 blood work comes back with a number & the range from the lab...
  2. It is a very hard lesson to learn but a great lesson. I think when this happens & one gets ill then they usually never will decide to ever cheat!..Feel better soon... Any mistake can be turned around to make a good lesson so really no bad mistakes if we learn & grow from them...
  3. mateo the gluten-free recipe is included with the very first poster.....
  4. Hope you feel better soon.. But a good lesson learned Please read labels or ask before putting any food in your mouth!!! This all takes time & knowledge but you too will get there....
  5. Did you do bloodwork before starting on B-12? It can cause some to get high energy, which for most is welcomed.. but maybe you are sensitive to this ... I suggest before taking B-12, Vit D. calicum, iron & such to have blood work done to see if you need it.... As with drugs , same with vits & minerals, you need to be tested...
  6. If the label reads just cashews its okay but you gotta watch for the seasoned nuts...or the spiced nuts.some may not be gluten-free due to the spice or seasoning ingredient
  7. It is a shame so I hope they lose alot of business! Maybe then they will consider bringing back the onion! celiacs unite to make a statement to bring back the onion... I thinkwe all should write letters to corporate & let them know how unhappy we all are!!!
  8. Tim Google DePumas Pasta. They are in Ct & I know there are restaurants that sell their ravioli & such. It is the very best I ever had... I do mailorder , its that good.... John the ownerwas on Food Wars I think several years ago. His wife is celiac Have a great time in CT...
  9. We eat Barbara's gluten free rice krispies, cream of rice cereal, cream of buckwheat, gluten-free oatmeal no corn in any of those...
  10. OrtegaTaco shells & Bi_Aglut pasta are te best....Bi_Aglut worth every penny.. Family has no idea they are eating gluten-free pasta...
  11. That is just gross.. most upscale places would check the stemware!...When we are someplace where they bring coffee in the cups & don't fill at the table, I always ask please check the mug......I also hate when at cheaper places they serve food on Melanie dinnerware & it's all scratched up.. Gotta be hidden gluten crumbs in...
  12. it works best to have all the thyroid stuff done at the same time..And by chance if you are on thyroid meds you should not dose before your blood work..
  13. Hi You said you have had all the tests done I mentioned but you only mentioned the TSH for ;thyroid -- that is not enough you need all the other ones I mentioned. Plus I agree you could be haviing allergies to other foods or a combo reaction when you pair two foods at one time... Vit C, can cause reactions for many...
  14. Chips & salsa,pretzels, beef jerky,non-dairy cheese, crackers, veggies or fruit kabobs...mini pizzas ( think micro-mini), proteinbars, rice chex mix, sorry I forget what all you said that is a no no...
  15. I don't have an answer for you but my cousin's name is Pat Collins!!!!!
  16. Just a few more thoughts. Are you a dx'd celiac? Have you had routine bloodwork done ? Vit B-12 & Vit D checked? Thyroid screening? all of it TSH, T-3 T-4 Free T3, FreeT4, RT-3. Total T-3, calicum, Glucose, sodium.... Stress test, echo???? Just a few things I suggest you have completed if you haven't already...
  17. Hi Keith I'm sending the docs name & info via pm to you...
  18. congrats & Dani Nero is correct.. Some people just don't care enough to learn , don't waste your time...
  19. It all takes time & understanding learning all about being gluten-free for life. in a way it sounds to me like you may be feeling food deprived besides the normal feeling angry & mad because of celiac...again this is a normal feeling --- feeling deprived...... I think after ten years I still at times get this feeling...
  20. I posted the other day for Pgh area but I guess I forgot to hit the send !!!! I know a good gastro group in Pittsburgh, Pa but they are not alternative docs...if you are interested just let me know... I run a support group...
