  1. I have raynauld's , celiac, dry eyes plus hypo /hyper thyroid after Rai.... plus grave's.... I haven't seen much improvement with skin except rosacea has improved since twelve years of strictly being gluten-free...
  2. Kareng, you are right --- I carry enough for several people so in the event something happens I can also share with other hungry people...When people ride with me they are always looking for my goodie bag! even the gluten eaters! I do also always have a bin in my trunk with water & juice......gluten free people who ride with me...
  3. I think gluten free on a shoestring has a recipe .......Trader Joe's has a noodle bowls that should be microwaved but we have done them with just boiling hot water when primitive camping....
  4. in my purse I carry a kind bar, jerky (individual size) , nut butter packet, apple....trail mix, not all of these but a couple of them.... My car has a whole array of shelf stable gluten-free foods... I love St Dalfour salmon & veggies with crackers....jerky, protein bars, kids gluten-free squeeze pouches, several kinds of...
  5. sorry about your daughter.....but I think the blood work speaks volumes .....our kid was 2 1/2 when we had a endo with biopsies done, it is scary for a small child, I feel your pain.....of course no one want to be celiac but I too believe it is great that it got caught early so no horrible damage ......You need to test...
  6. sounds like you have lots going on..... What type of doctor is the new one? You could ask the office staff if the doc handles celiac before you go... If you are wanting to be tested for celiac you need to be eating gluten for proper results.....some say two slices of bread a day others including me feel more gluten...
  7. I know many who enjoy Green's beer......I use it for the liquid in beer batters for seafood....I second the clam chowder & Progresso creamy mushroom....all progresso soups are labeled... but no beer just yet! there are also many hard ciders that many enjoy...not just yet for you tho!!!
  8. Our kitties eat all the varieties mentioned plus a few more... they are kitty foodie snobs .... They like the wellness canned too....
  9. have you read the newbie thread? it can be hard in the beginning but some of the food items you mentioned are or could be okay to eat if your gut had already been healed up... Remember food in the naked/raw natural state I.e. beef, chicken, fish, pork, fresh veggies & fruit are all gluten-free... it is when ...
  10. I eat them too with no issues...yummy
  11. My endo doc said for positive without synthyroid paying for fellows & being in their back pockets things would not be pretty....We have part of a building funded by Mylan Labs....& a thank you plague to Mylan!!!! I do believe the big drug players do control much of the medical community...& I mentioned...
  12. how nice.....
  13. that's the medical profession!!!! I understand your pain & anger, ... but I wouldn't expect much more from an endo doc... .non-caring & ignorant....remember the drug mfg owns these guys .......honestly I think endo docs are the worse .... sorry I wish I could find something nice to say about them....I would love for an...
  14. Erfa is the other one I had said I would take....My doc here would not prescribe it for me because it wasn't US regulated which made me laugh...at that time Mylan had several lawsuits happening... I laughed & said I would rather take my chances on a Canadian drug...but he gave in to the one I now take. I never want...
  15. I've heard the new reformed armour is not the same as the old armour...but I can't say for positive as I never used it.... Synthyroid can not guarantee its gluten-free now.... years ago the 50 mg was gluten-free but they have since changed that statement.... angio lympathic edema is one of the most horrible things...
  16. I took one pill of levothyroxine & felt something wrong.... I developed angio lympathic edema for nine months from that drug....not a pretty picture.. Now I am super sensitive to drugs.... Mylan does not guarantee their synthyroid is gluten-free..... Tirosint is a newer drug that has very few ingredients so is less likely to...
  17. Kraft & Sargento are safe shredded cheese .... but I doubt one of those is used in a fast food joint....I venture to guess they use a cheap brand of shredded cheese ........ where more generic junk is added...for looks & taste. anti-clumping agents used by cheese mfg's include powdered cellulose , potato starch, or calcium...
  18. I agree with the other posters, you need more solid info & need testing.... don't jump on the celiac truck just yet , there are many illness/ diseases that can mimic celiac....and vice versa. Plus for correct testing you need to be eating gluten....... A side note twelve years being celiac..... I never was glutened by Wendy's chili or frosty....I don...
  19. thanks for the input... they are not in my area yet...To me it appears these mainstream companies want on the gluten-free money wagon but don't consider any nutritional value ... Most stuff just has a lot of added sugars & sodium to make them taste better... I know in my beginning journey I never thought about healthy...
  20. I was just at Costco & they lowered the loaf to $6.99 a dollar less than before...... I feel very lucky when I see what others are paying!
  21. Our kids just completed their cooking semester....We had the option of skipping that class but kids Boys wanted to take the class..... So our kids had their cooking class in September , first period so the room was cleaned before school started in Sept. the cooking room is cleaned every evening just because of the mess daily. So this is when we felt the safest...
  22. my computer just started this * I don't have a mac!.. I'm not computer savvy so I don't know why this started maybe a computer genie will step up & tell us...it is annoying!
  23. how great.... hope she wins...... a wonderful testament to her teacher! Kinda makes one feel like a proud mama......it is always nice to hear about the kids who are striving to make something out of their life, a benefit & help to our society.....please tell her our celiac community is cheering her on ...
  24. I have had low folic acid for years , long before my twelve years of being celiac....
  25. when you are typing does it break a word up on two lines? If that is it I too, have this happen but it just started doing that, but when post it is all okay....
