    The turkey is from the Whole Foods Market and has no added antibiotics or hormones etc. and the only meds. she is taking are levothyroxine for hypothyroidism and Low-Ogestrel Birth control to regulate her cycle. Both I was informed are gluten free.

    My daughter is 26 years old and was diagnosed about 5 months ago with EE. She has tried proton pump inhibitors (omeprazole and pepcid) with no relief from these at all. She has continued chest pain and her GI put her on Flovent and said to eliminate the 8 major food allergens as well. She had already been gluten free for 1 1/2 years. So we eliminated the...

    Thanks GFM for your reply it is greatly appreciated. You say there is no long term nutritional risk to going a week or two on this limited diet. But if we are only adding 1 food back at a time after the week or two trial period it seems as if the would be pretty long term in order to get enough foods back into her diet. Maybe I am looking to deep into this...

    Hope I put this in the right forum. If not I guess one of the moderators will move it. I have a 26 year old daughter who has been gluten free for 2 years now. The diet has helped get rid of the daily headaches and stomach pains, as well as peroidic bouts of diarrhea. She was tested by both blood test and biopsy for celiac disease and both came back negative...

    Thanks so much to all of you who replied. Is all D3 supplements derived from fish oil as my DD cannot have fish. thought the one i bought her at whole foods said no fish ingredients. She does not live at home with me so I will have to check the bottle next time I go see her. She cannot read so I can't have her check it. Hope the one I bought is ok.

    Why is it vitamin d2 and not d3. Both of my parents are deficient and were told by their doctor to supplement with d3. What is the difference?

    My daughter has been gluten free for a year and a half now. She tested negative for celiac by blood and biopsy. Being gluten free has helped tremendously with the headache and stomach pains however, she was diagnosed 3 months ago with eosinophilic esophagitis. Her GI has said to eliminate the eight major food allergens (gluten/wheat,dairy, soy, eggs, peanuts...

    Thank you for your input and yes I am looking in to being tested for celiac but being that I went back to eating gluten I am trying to wait at least 3 mths. to hopefully get accurate results with a gluten challenge. Not to bad at this point. I hope I can deal with it for long enough. If not I will go back off gluten without a definitive diagnosis. I am also...

    I understand the feeling of being scared of falling. I was scared to drive also and it has taken a while to get the courage up to try it. So far so good.....

    I have suggested it but think it is on deaf ears as he was also diagnosed with non-hodgkins lymphoma mantel cell about 3 years ago (in remission right now)but they say it is most likely to recurr with this type. I mentioned to he and my mother to be tested for celiac because of the relation between non-hodgkins and also B-12 and he also just recently (as...

    Thanks so much for all your responses, they are greatly appreciated. Bully4You- My period has not been regular for about 3 years now. I go maybe 2-4 months without one and then it comes. I have mentioned it to my GP and she just says I am at the age of possible perimenopause and brushes it off. I guess it is possible there could be some connection but...

    Ravenwood and Reba thanks so much for your replies. It is much appreciated and I will try gluten free again to see what happens.
  17. glutengal
    Thank you very much for the information and I will definitely look into it. What exactly is it?

    Just wondering if being gluten free we are supposed to use gluten free personal products such as deodorant, toothpaste, soap, laundry and dish soap, toilet paper etc. When you go out to eat in a restaurant that has a gluten free menu you sometimes have to worry about cc issues with your food. What about the fact that the dishes you are eating off of are probably...

    For anyone interested I just thought I would let you know that per a conversation with a representative who checked and personally called me back that he claimed that all Claritin except the Reditabs are gluten free.

    Thank you for your reply and I may try going gluten free again to see what happens. In the mean time I have an appt. with ENT in Sept. and will see what they have to say.

    I was just wondering about the possible connection between vertigo and the consumption of gluten. I was gluten free for a year and was not diagnosed as celiac but because my daughter is gluten intolerant decided to go gluten free along with her. Well, the short of it is, I went back on gluten about 2 months or so ago and in the last month have had vertigo...

    Hi I have not been here in quite some time as I myself have been following the diet and have had great improvement (mainly with my constipation issue). My question is that my daughter who has been gluten free since June had tremendous improvement but recently started getting headaches again. She has not been glutened as she has been following the same...

    Im not sure but I think my daughter may have gotten glutened at Outback Steak House. We ate there on Halloween night and the waitress and staff assured us that everything was ok and they changed gloves etc. so I am not sure if she got glutened. She had not had any headaches or earaches since going gluten free 5 months ago and now I am frustrated because...

    I appreciate your suggestion as well as everyone elses. I did have a bm today that was pencil thin after a week of the miralax and am not sure about it being so thin but I will see how it goes in the next few days.
