Too bad those kidnappers couldn't be nice enough to provide you with gluten free food while they were keeping you captive. So inconsiderate of them.

I had a nightmare the other night that I ate Nacho Doritos accidentally. When I realized what I was doing I tried to take all of the chips out of my mouth (to try and reduce the gluten-don't know if this would actually do anything) and there just kept being more and more chips. I couldn't get rid of them all. It was so awful. Not to mention that in my dream...

An elephant ear with cinnamon and sugar. Powdered donuts. old fashioned donuts.

I want a cinnabon. With extra frosting. I also want wheat spaghetti and toasted french bread with butter that I can dip in the pasta sauce.

ARCHIVED Shouldn't Have Taken Communion This Morn
Googles replied to srall's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
My situation is different because we pass a plate, and I'm in the choir so we have our own plate since we are in the loft. My church provides the gluten-free bread. One day the pastor forgot to bring it and someone else ran out and got it. Mine is put in a ziplock bag and then I have someone open the bag for me and fold back the plastic so I can just grab... -
I have had skin issues since I was a teenager, and never been able to find a solution. I ran out of milk a couple of days ago and haven't been to the store to pick any more up. And my face has cleared up. This might just be a coincidence, but maybe not. How long should I wait before I drink milk again. And does that mean I have to give up my mozzarella cheese...

I ended up having time to call them before class and they said it was gluten free (Big sigh of relief!)

Does anyone know if scope is gluten free? Or did I just unintentionally gluten myself? Thanks.

I did the store locater to try and find it near me and it is 50 miles away.

How Soon After Gluten Do You React?
Googles replied to Luvbeingamommy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I usually don't have reactions until the next day. Then it is 3 or so days for the neuro symptoms and aches to go away. The gut symptoms go away usually in about 6 hrs. But it depends how much I was eating at the same time and what exactly it was I was eating. At least this far. -
Thank you everyone for the support. I was feeling better about all this, and then the anniversary of the diagnosis came around along with a lot of other stress which just kind of sent me into a tailspin. As someone mentioned I do feel like my body has betrayed me. Like it plotted against me to make everything harder, as if it wasn't hard enough as it is....

When people respond with "well it could be worse" it makes me angry. It makes me feel invalidated. It makes me feel that my feelings don't matter. I'm sorry that person X suffered from disease Y. That sucks. But that doesn't mean that my distress is any less. And this just comes on top of my other health issues. It just happens to be the newest one. The one...

Thank you everyone for listening to me scream. I know this could be worse. And I was doing quite well for a while. But this has all just popped up again. I even wen tout to eat at a restaurant with friends for the first time. But I think this conference is terrifying me. I don't want to end up sick in another country. Ugh.
-
I feel like I'm stuck in the grief process. And I'm back to the anger stage. I really thought that I had accepted my diagnosis and that there was nothing that was going to make it go away. But I am just so angry. And there is no one for me to be angry at. Except myself. It's my stupid body that can't work right. It's my stupid body that causes me to be excluded...

Is flaking skin from Celiac? I have flaking skin. I hate it. I'm gluten free (for about a year) but my flaking skin hasn't changed. Is there something to treat it?
-
I went to the store today to get some cookies that are gluten-free and they did not have any left. I asked a person working at the store (which I think ended up talking to a manager. He looked at what I wanted and said that he couldn't help me because his "natural foods" orders didn't come in until Friday. Does that mean that all of his other food he has...

Thank you for your input. It makes me a lot more relaxed.

I just got a job babysitting. I was wondering if people have tips for cooking gluten containing food. I haven't cooked any since I went gluten free last year. I will be cooking dinner for the kids. I know to wash my hands really well when I am done cooking and not to taste any of the food to see if it is done (I'll have to use the kids for this one) but I...

The problem was that it wasn't written up specifically as a food issue, but when I asked what they were referring to in one section, that was what they said they were referring to. Yes I was anxious when I was talking to them about it. It was the first time I had to ask about food. So I was nervous about asking. Every time it comes up it makes me angry all...

I am angry. So angry. This happened a little more than a year ago now (about two months after I was diagnosed). I moved to graduate school and they had a welcoming lunch for the new students. I asked them where they were getting their food from and what they were getting making it clear that I just wanted to check and see if any of the food would be safe...

I am traveling to Montreal for a conference in November. I am dreading traveling. I don't know how many days I'm going to be there. Can anyone help me with information about where I can eat? I don't know where I am staying yet. Any information will be helpful. This is the first time I've traveled except for my grandfather's funeral since I was diagnosed so...

Thanks. That really helps giving me a place to start. -
ARCHIVED Alcoholic Drinks
Googles replied to Googles's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
The one time I tried wine (and yes it was obviously only one type) I almost spit it out. I was with some older friends (30-50) who had opened a bottle of wine at a retreat. They offered me some by saying that it was okay if I drank some (obviously they didn't think I was old enough to drink). Too bad I was already 22. Being that they were offering it... -
ARCHIVED Alcoholic Drinks
Googles posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I was wondering what types of alcohol I can drink. I don't really like very many types of alcohol I had tried before becoming diagnosed and I know nothing about what things are made of. I was wondering if people could let me know so when I go to parties or out to a bar with friends. The only thing I really liked that I found was an almoreto(sp) sour. Can... -
ARCHIVED "But You Can Eat Whole Wheat, Right?"
Googles replied to earthtoneNJ's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I guess I shouldn't have been as surprised as I was when I went to the grocery store. The cashier (maybe 16 or 17) asked me what I was buying since she didn't recognize the gluten free food. I told her that I was getting gluten free food because I couldn't eat wheat. She looked at me really confused. I said that I couldn't eat flour. She then said. Oh I...
