ARCHIVED York Food Allergy Tests
KaitiUSA replied to lindasheppard's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Did it say how sensitive you are to these things? I know I am sensitive to dairy if I have alot of it but I can have some in moderation. Also I would value what these tests have to say...I for one did not have one done yet but plan to sometime in the near future. Fruits and veggies are good though -
ARCHIVED Tylenol
KaitiUSA replied to seeking-wholeness's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've never had a reaction to Tylenol or Advil. They are on my gluten-free list too but I guess some people just have different reactions to different things. -

ARCHIVED Dealing With Fatigue And Lack Of Stamina
KaitiUSA replied to jymles's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I was also very active with sports. I played in tournaments 5-6 games a weekend, had alot of endurance and never got tired. I got mono first which I was tested for it 3 times before it was positive. Then I was diagnosed with celiac after that. Liquid vitamins get into your bloodstream quicker so that may be why your body is liking them more. Also Sublingual... -

ARCHIVED Yet Another "cinderella" Story?
KaitiUSA replied to FaithInScienceToo's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
FaithInScienceToo-Yes I can see how you made your decision. Your reasons make sense and if you want to go for it. They need to be alerted somehow on what not to give you. How was the day with your 4 year old niece? Little kids are so cute Talk to you all later -

KaitiUSA replied to absurduk's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
All of the Bare Escentuals makeup is gluten free. Toothpaste I use Crest. Shampoos, conditioners,hairspray soaps..I use Dove..all of their products will not hide anything. Moisturizers I use Neutrogena...they emailed me a huge list of their gluten-free products. Kraft as Stef said will not hide anything. Unless their products say wheat,rye, barley, or... -

ARCHIVED Yet Another "cinderella" Story?
KaitiUSA replied to FaithInScienceToo's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
He sounds like a very good doctor like one that actually deserves his paycheck I drive an hour to see my reg. doc and my GI doctor...but it is well worth the drive to have a good doctor. I had mono that triggered it but my old doc for a year kept telling me the mono takes a long time to get over(she didn'e know what was going on thats why she just made... -
ARCHIVED Will My Kids Have Cd Too?
KaitiUSA replied to newby's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Going gluten free will reverse the damage done to your intestine. For some people the damage heals quicker. Depends on the amount of damage. As far as infertility I have heard that is if you don't follow the diet but I'm not sure if that is true. I haven't done to much research on that side of celiac yet. I'm only 17 still and I don't have to worry about... -

celiac3270-man missing it by 2 months next election I would scream I had a cow missing this one. I still went to the polls and spent all day handing out stuff and had my car advertising too Yeah there is not much I could teach my doctor and GI doctor they both know about celiac very much and are awesome. I had to switch doctors a few times to find... -
ARCHIVED Yet Another "cinderella" Story?
KaitiUSA replied to FaithInScienceToo's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Yes I agree celiac3270 it would be a small price to pay if your laying there unconcious. I think my parents would be there to make sure they put nothing into me that contained gluten. I also carry a card in my wallet that says I am a celiac. I would hope they would not put anything into me that contains gluten. If they did thats a big liability factor... -

FaithInScienceToo-Actually I didn't vote for him. I would have if I could have but I am only 17. I will be 18 in 5 months. That's cool if you call me by my name. I have alot of friends who don't think the same thing I do and I have no problem with that. I agree that since it is not life threatening it probably wouldn't be the best to have a medic alert... -

ARCHIVED How Did You Know?
KaitiUSA replied to anerissara's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
flowers-if the blood test was positive I would not rule out celiac disease. If there is not enough damage to the intestine a biopsy will not catch it. Many people don't even have symptoms with celiac. Celiac is very underdiagnosed.I would also find a doctor who is knowledgable in celiac in your area. If you go to the homepage of this site there is a link... -

celiac3270-That is so great that they found that!! I had that done before to and had to drink all that chalk like stuff. At least they flavored it but it was still pretty nasty. I hope that makes you feel better when you have the surgery done...I'm so happy for you! Good luck -
ARCHIVED Will My Kids Have Cd Too?
KaitiUSA replied to newby's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
When you have kids they need to be tested. Celiac is genetic and runs in families. Doesn't mean they will have it but they could. Also they should be tested for any allergies as well. My mom has a severe wheat allergy but not celiac, my dad has no food restrictions as of now. Nobody in the family has been officially diagnosed with celiac although...
