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...

mamaw replied to Pickle4's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
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... -
ARCHIVED I'm Totally Lost. Help Please?
mamaw replied to Eli1007's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
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... -

mamaw replied to JazzyJake's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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 ... -

ARCHIVED What Thyroid Meds Do You Take?
mamaw replied to HappyMom623's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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!!!!

ARCHIVED What Thyroid Meds Do You Take?
mamaw replied to HappyMom623's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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... -
ARCHIVED What Thyroid Meds Do You Take?
mamaw replied to HappyMom623's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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... -
ARCHIVED What Thyroid Meds Do You Take?
mamaw replied to HappyMom623's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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... -
ARCHIVED What Thyroid Meds Do You Take?
mamaw replied to HappyMom623's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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... -
ARCHIVED Nabisco gluten-free Crackers Or Wendys Cause Of First Glutenin
mamaw replied to indianaharlegirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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... -
ARCHIVED Nabisco gluten-free Crackers Or Wendys Cause Of First Glutenin
mamaw replied to indianaharlegirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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... -
ARCHIVED Waffles: Van's Vs Eggo
mamaw replied to plumbago's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
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... -
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!
