I have two sisters recently diagnosed with Celiacs. I have some poss. mild symptoms, Irritability, fogginess, inability to lose weight, very irregular cycles, anxiety and panic attacks. Is it harmful for me to attempt a gluten-free diet even if I may not have Celiacs?

Has anyone thought that the gluten could attribute to having anxiety? For various reasons I've gone back on gluten, since they're telling me its all IBS, acid reflux/heart burn and stress related. I'm now having bouts of attacks of anxiety and its really starting to concern me. Pondering going gluten-free not to mention the diarrhea's back and abdominal...

Yes this was all I was tested for. I went off gluten for about a week or so approximately before visiting my GI. Suddenly allmy digestive issues halted, and were gone! (Thankfully) Unfortunately, I realized that if I was to talk my GI into testing me for Celiac, I would hav eto go back on gluten. I did for about a week before they did the blood test...

So after fighting with my doctors office, I finally got copies of my test results back. Good news is it does look legitimate I don't have Celiac Disease based on these findings. Maybe just a gluten intolerance? I don't know! I've been having a heck of a week digestively as it is, thinking I've snuck something in my diet my body isn't loving.. or maybe...

They're a brand of boxed frozen hamburgers. I'm unable to find ingredients listed on the boxes or anything on their website.

Does anyone know if Bubba Burgers are on the gluten-free safety list? Thanks for the info!

So my fiance's co-worker invited us over for dinner. No description of what dinner was, just to bring beer. (of course a significant indication that it wasn't wheat free) In this scenario where my fiance may not be entirely comfortable expressing to anyone or everyone who invites us to dinner that I have a wheat intolerance. What do you do with this...

I'm curious to find if anyone else has heard of these type of "test results" when having their children tested for food allergies or intolerances. My niece whom is 10 has suffered from as her mother puts it a very bloated stomach, some constipation, and in general is overweight for her age. (To the unfortunate point of teasing now, mainly due to extra...

You might be a Celiac if... You have anxiety attacks when dinner party invitations are extended. Only have to give your spouse "the look" and they know its a marathon dash to find the closest restroom. You've taken account for every public rest stop on each commuting route to and from work. Given up hopes of enjoying a real meal outside of your...

I don't officially paricipate in Weight Watchers, although I think it is a WONDERFUL program, just going the cheaper route of on my own. I just wanted to post and say congratulations to all of you women who are working so diligently at your weight loss! And being gluten-free at the same time is not easy I know! Way to go on your progress. Current...

I can relate to how you feel completely. Once my glutened symptoms come on, my appetite is completely diminished if I have any at all. I build the courage to eat some rice, steamed veggies things along those lines. There is a brand of soy sauce (for the life of me I can not remember the name) that I have found in every grocery store I've shopped...

Boy can I relate. In fact I find these posts so comforting to know I was not alone. I hadn't read much when I first looked into celiac disease about being short of breath and was panicked something else was wrong with me! In the beginnings of my gluten-intolerant symptoms, I was so fatigued and short of breath walking up a short flight of stairs it was...

What specifically is the SCD Diet?

Fonda, I've found hat the protein does seem to add that extra little bit I needed apparently. Hopefully I'll keep losing weight in addition to this! Good luck with yours as I know that ache hunger pain is not pleasant!

I've found too that I've lost weight since being strictly gluten-free. I do replace a few breads/carbs with gluten-free items but not frequently. Simply because I don't find that I have a lot of time to do this. I recently read something about eating in the volumetrics life style. By weight of items and volume, not content. As it is styled by the concept...
