    Maybe being off the major wheat sources brought her blood count down but even if her blood tests came back normal there will be damage done. All gluten will give you damage. Even if you just have it now and then not only are you damaging yourself..you are pretty much setting an early death date for you by ignoring the diet...she is very ill informed and must...

    They have light, medium, dark and like 5 or 6 foundation colors. The colors are pretty much like other foundations so whatever you would get there order that color. It lasts a very long time. The eye shadows and everything also last a long time. I have the light/medium foundation and I'm almost halfway through it at 4 months or so...so it lasts a while.....

    The health food store...not the manufacturer of course be careful with it...they have never had a problem with it where we go

    Haha great alternative story

    You could have been unresponsive due to the corn or because you often cheated.

    That is very supportive of you. The best thing to do is keep the house gluten free to ensure she will not get sick. Are you going to follow the diet as well? If not you should mouthwash or something after eating so when you kiss her you do not contaminate her. The best thing you can do is continue to be supportive and encourage her with the progress she is...

    I haven't seen it in regular stores. We order it by calling QVC(my mom does not like ordering over the Internet so we avoid that)...they have makeup kits and so forth that are much cheaper then the actual bare escentuals store.

    Celiac disease is not contagious and can not be given to anyone through contact, kissing, etc.... You are born with the predisposition and genes for it but it may not be activated until something triggers it later in life. If there are family members who have it that shows it runs in the family. It is a genetic autoimmune disease. It can be triggered at any...

    If you were diagnosed you have it...... They would not be wrong with their original diagnosis...for them to catch celiac they deserve a pat on the back. Of course being gluten free will cause you to have a inaacurate blood test even if you cheated...you need to be solidly on gluten for a good 3 months to get accurate results. You need to be eating a lot...

    Alot of the ingredients are complicated so the best thing to do is call the company. Alot of lipsticks have wheat starch in them. I had some lip balm I was using and I was feeling awful and called and the vitamin e in it was derived from wheat. They can hide it under pretty much everything. I changed completely to Bare Escentuals because all their makeup...

    There was probably a chemical with gluten or something in the pool...had to be something since you have one yourself and have no problem
  12. KaitiUSA
    Just because it showed up no malabsorption does not mean you do not have any damage. It could just be starting and not enough to detect as of yet. Your body obviously has an issue with gluten as well as milk. Alot of celiacs have trouble with milk ...I used to until I went gluten free..now I have no problem with it. Whether your 2 are connected or separate...

    If I read the ingredients on the shampoo bottle I think I would need a dictionary...

    What you can do is buy them and taste it then return it if you don't like it. Companies around here will do that. We got apple muffins that were gluten-free and tasted them and they were horrible so they took them back

    Well for me I can't have it touch my skin because my skin gets irritated...and if you wash it with wheat containing shampoo even when it dries it will have wheat in it...and how many times do you touch your hair without washing hands...there are ways it can get to your mouth.
  16. KaitiUSA
    Or you can try digestive enzymes, they helped me alot. With celiac it is common to have lactose intolerance until your intestines heal. I was lactose intolerant on and off my whole life and when I went gluten free it got better and I can eat it now. Yogurt is a good thing for your child. Yogurt is usually ok for lactose intolerant people because it contains...

    I usualu don't get mine washed there I usually just get my hair cut and then go home and wash it and style it....if I decided to get it done there for a special occasion or something I can bring my own shampoo in and they will use it.
  18. KaitiUSA
    I don't feel bad about it...he knew about celiac when i went out with him, he had the problems before, he has just been in denial. I thought it was a joke at first...I couldn't refrain from laughing. He won't get tested so he doesn't even know if he has it...but digestive problems run in his family...i think he just thinks he has it and wants to blame me...
  19. KaitiUSA
    I suspected my ex has celiac...of course he wont get tested ...all the symptoms...anyway I was contacted recently by him and he says he thinks I gave him celiac ...he has DH and when he eats certain things he gets itchy and feeling bad....and now he wants to maybe file a lawsuit against me for giving it to him if he has it. Hes going to look so stupid...
  20. KaitiUSA
    They really should be tested whether they show symptoms or not. Since you have it there is a real possibility they could have it. Insurance will cover some of the tests I guess depending which lab you send it to. I'm surprised the doctor was so closed to that considering you have that. I take it he was one of the doctors who is not well versed in celiac...

    I would have been like well I don't know if I could ever have kids with a jerk that is crazy . wow I don't blame you one bit for kicking him to the curb he deserved it...how do people think they can treat us like this? o well there are some really good guys out there and this will not be an issue for anyone who really cares
  22. KaitiUSA
    celiac3270-If it was only the eating thing I could get over that but the fact that he forgets about it all the time...I don't want to explain it anymore to him...he should know by now. He laughs about celiac ...hes the kind of guy who says just have a little gluten while your out with me

    ARCHIVED Gastro Dr.

    KaitiUSA replied to sdore's topic in Doctors

    Definitely no gluten again. The doctor needs to be informed a bit about celiac disease because your doctor doesn't seem to have a clue. As celiac3270 said, your intestines will be healed but eating gluten will set you back to square one quickly. The more you are off of gluten the more you become sensitive to it as well.Your body will not like it if you try...
  24. KaitiUSA
    haha yeah well if she is anything like him they would be perfect for each other
  25. KaitiUSA
    Ian-Exactly...thats my point... He has known me for a while so for him not to remember that is kind of an insult to me. If you care about someone you remember those important thing. I have to explain it to him just about every time I talk to him. I know not everything revolves around food but why bother with someone that you tell something to goes in one...
