    Hey guys. I need your help within the next week if possible! We're doing a project on food allergies and Campbell's in my Business Admin. class as our major project! All you need to do is reply with your e-mail address (or PM it to me) and I'll e-mail you a copy of the short survey. Fill it out and send it back! That simple . I promise the data...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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.
  10. num1habsfan
    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...

    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...

    I have always wondered if I had both due to all of my intolerances. And oddly enough, I have had many times a candidial infection in my mouth/throat. Thankfully I have never had signs of it in my stomach (I have been scoped a few times in recent years). I think for me the Celiac caused all of these other conditions. I am on an IBD diet meaning no...

    I had all of that bloodwork done and no phone call from the doctor's office so I am assuming that everything came back negative - which would be pathetic. The only update I really have besides the fact that the sleepiness has not gone away is that on Sept 14 I am having a take-home sleep apnea test done. I guess they chose to give me the machine that...

    I've been on Synthroid 25 micrograms for over 3 years now and it sure has seemed to do the trick, but if you read my post called excessive sleep you'll see that it's possible my thyroids may be out of whack again or that the Synthroid is no longer doing the trick. It is the only hypothyroidism med that I've been prescribed but I like it. I don't seem...
  19. num1habsfan
    well here's a list of everything bloodwork I'm about to get done, to investigate the cause of my fatigue: Hematology: CBC (Hg, Hct, RBC, WCB, diff Indices, plt) Chemistry: Glucose Fst (8 hour Fst) Renal Panel: Urea, Creatinine, Electrolytes Left Panel: ALT, Alk. Phos., Total Bilirubin, Albumin, GGT Serology: CRP, Mono (spot test and serum pls) Chemistry...

    ? Yesterday I had a breathing test and my respirologist asked how I'm feeling. I told him I was on prednisone again and that I have hypertension now. Also mentioned the fatigue. He asked if I snore, I said no. He asked if I get up during the night, I said yes to pee almost every hour, sometimes more. He asked if anyone ever told me I stop breathing,...
  21. num1habsfan
    I was presented with a new theory on the cause of my fatigue... diabetes. What do you think? I already have hypertension, and I pee a lot (sometimes more than once an hour) and have been really achy with arthritis acting up more often than usual and i get a lot of headaches....
  22. num1habsfan
    Thanks for the replies, everyone. I appreciate your opinions! Sounds like you are all agreeing on it being either a deficiency or a change in my hypothyroidism. I had my thyroid levels checked I think it was 5 or 6 months ago now and it was fine. But no further bloodwork since then. I guess I will be sleeping a lot for the next couple weeks yet. Can't...
  23. num1habsfan
    Hey everyone. I wasn't sure where to post this but I'm pretty puzzled about something and I'm wondering if anyone else has a similar issue. For the last while I have been on spree where I can literally sleep 24 hours a day. It doesn't matter if I sleep 2 hours or 10 hours, or if I'm indoors or outdoors, within a few hours of waking up I'm ready to be back...

    Glad this topic was up. Will try find the Celestial Seasonings one for sure. I've been having some iffy situations right now involving the kidney and I've been told that green tea can help prevent UTIs.

    Thank you for that update! I just wish they would EXTEND their gluten-free available products, not mae us even more limited!
