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...

ARCHIVED Aha Test Results Back!
dbuhl79 replied to dbuhl79's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
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... -
ARCHIVED Aha Test Results Back!
dbuhl79 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
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. -
ARCHIVED Bubba Burgers

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...

ARCHIVED Niece, Food Alllergy Testing Results..
dbuhl79 posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
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... -
ARCHIVED "you Might Be A Celiac If....."
dbuhl79 replied to VegasCeliacBuckeye's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
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...

ARCHIVED Ouch! Now What Do I Eat?
dbuhl79 replied to trying4faith's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
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!

ARCHIVED Gained 15 Pounds 2 Months
dbuhl79 replied to whitelacegal's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
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... -
I recently bought some corn tortilla shells and didn't care for them as wraps as they seemed quite dry. In order not to waste them I gave the following a whirl. Take approximately 3-4 circular small sized corn flat tortilla shells and cut them into quarters. Spray a flat cookie sheet with pam or some other non-stick spray. I typically use the "butter...

Thanks for the tips guys. I hadn't thought of a lack of protein being an issue, but I imagine that may be potential cause. I'll give it a shot altering my diet.. quite frankly, its just a matter of time to grocery shop!!
-
Does this sound firmilar to anyone.. I've been a saint the past few weeks about my gluten-free diet. I haven't touched ANYTHING remotely questionable (i.e., natural flavorings, food colorings etc.) Mainly my diet has been steamed veggies, fresh fruit, rice etc. Suddenly last week or so I've suffered from what I call are hunger aches in the pit of...

Thanks so much you guys! This was wonderful help and really eased my worry of finding something for the wedding to please all!!

I'm getting married next year and am now in that process of just beginning to think of bakeries etc, that may be able ot produce a nice Gluten Free Wedding Cake. Does anyone know of flexible bakeries in Michigan that might be able to do this? Any suggestions are very welcome! Thanks!
-
Thanks folks! Stef, its just a matter of stupidity really. I've made a new commitment to myself this weekend that it was the end of my misbehaving. I'd gotten so sick and spoiled a pleasant time. I'm tired of being unable to go out without having the black cloud over my head of anticipated stomach pain, bathroom runs, or fatigue. Thanks for the pep...

I've been through the mill of doctors and specialists. None confirming I have celiac. Nor anything else. So its pretty much left to "gee if hurts then don't do that." basis. Trust me.. I just need to get my rear in gear an dback on the wagon. I am sure I suffer from an sensitivty to gluten/wheat if nothing else..
-
So, I slipped off the wagon, a few times now. Even with constant reminders from my fiance, future-in-laws, etc, that "you can't have that..". But I do, and guess what, I don't always have symptoms, so the next day I eat it again.. and then I suffer. So I figure I'd come here for a pep talk or a lecture from my dearest gluten-free friends! I guess the...

ARCHIVED Doctor Follows Up Weeks Later?
dbuhl79 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm sure many of you have followed my previous posts but I'll recap briefly. After a lot of digestive episodes, I was referred to a GI specialist (who specializes in Celiac Disease, IBS, Crohns). I was tested for Celiac Disease. After calling to receive my results, I was informed that they all came out negative. No exact numbers were given, nothing. And...
