ARCHIVED Suggestions For A Complicated Diet
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I rarely eat red meat due to its habit of causing IBD flares. For vegetables I can eat peas, lettuce, asparagus, cucumbers, and coloured bell peppers. I seem to tolerate pork well. Kinnikinnick white rice bread is my staple food. I avoid corn as much as possible, also due to IBD flares. Everything else for food I only eat once in awhile... -
ARCHIVED Celiac And Back Problems?
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Ugh, I've been having a MAJOR spasm this past week. Bad enough that I had to go to the ER for a shot. She gave me a low dose of Toradol (sp?) so that it wouldn't affect my hypertension too greatly. Tomorrow is my last day of taking Celebrex twice daily (the rest as needed), and Cyclobenzaprine half-to-one tablet up to 3 times a day as needed. If it... -

ARCHIVED Suggestions For A Complicated Diet
num1habsfan posted a topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I think I need advice from some of you, as I know I have heard from some of you that you have multiple allergies. I am of course gluten-free, and mainly lactose-free (I can tolerate some forms of dairy again). Since then I have developed the following complications: - some form of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (still undiagnosed after 5 1/2 years almost... -
ARCHIVED Gluten-Free Restaurants In Saskatchewan
num1habsfan posted a topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Wayyy back in the day there used to be a topic about gluten-free restaurants in Saskatchewan. But I know some of these no longer exist. I think we should start one up again . We may be a tiny province but with more and more Celiacs out there I bet this would come in handy! I've got a list as of July/2010: Saskatoon: - 2nd Avenue Grill - 6 Twelve... -
ARCHIVED Celiac And Back Problems?
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I'm still wondering, which of the 2 conditions can cause major back spasms to occur at random times? I had one again today where I nearly had to grab onto the table to keep my balance or walk because it hurt that bad and hit out of nowhere. This is the 5th time in the last 2 months i've had these random attacks now... Aww, sad. Wish she would go get... -
ARCHIVED Celiac And Back Problems?
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I will definitely mention it to her, then! May 10th can't come soon enough! :/. I wonder about the connection, also. If I do get sent to a rheumatologist I'm going to ask them what the odds of a connection between Celiac/scoliosis is! Can't hurt, right? I just refuse to go to the same jerk as last time, that's for sure. -
ARCHIVED Celiac And Back Problems?
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
No I didn't. Would it be a rheumatologist that looks at something like that, or can a regular family doctor order it? I plan to see my family doctor but she's so backed up that I won't get in to see her until next month. -
Hi everyone. I was wondering, is there a connect between back problems/bone diseases and Celiac? I had x-rays done on March 17th and got results from my physiotherapist last Monday...and it wasn't very good. The x-rays showed levoconvex lumbar scoliosis (still considered mild) beginning in my first 5 vertebrae. But that's not all it showed. The...

ARCHIVED It's Official, Gluten Must Be Labelled!
num1habsfan replied to num1habsfan's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Adab8ca, those are some ridiculous comments, wow! But sadly, it does not shock me. I always get people assuming that 'gluten intolerance' and 'wheat allergy' and the same thing. And still constantly hear that "a little won't hurt". People don't realize how hard being a Celiac is! I also agree that I wish it wouldn't take as long as 18 months, though I... -

This is the latest news as of today: New Health Canada rules expand food labels to specify allergens, gluten By: The Canadian Press Posted: 02/14/2011 10:38 AM | Comments: 0 | Last Modified: 02/14/2011 1:42 PM OTTAWA - New labelling rules will give consumers more detailed information about the presence of allergens, gluten and sulphites in food... -
Okay, people of Saskatchewan (and perhaps other areas of Canada?). I have a Taco Del Mar right by my apartment and I have never stopped in there before. After grabbing a yummy Hot Cider from the coffee shop next door I looked online and the website listed a bunch of gluten-free items. I walked into the place and asked the guy if THEY have anything...

Hey guys, I was just wondering if there is any connection between Celiac and Nocturnal Hypoxemia? I got diagnosed with this about a month and a half ago, but have not had any further testing or diagnosis yet. Apparently my respirologist is waiting until i'm scheduled for another breathing test. I didn't know the exact name of the condition I have until...
