    Sorry dude Chicken soup is always good for the soul! Probably the chips were fried with something gluteny. Hope you feel better soon!

    I had a really nasty, full GI fungal infection prior to being diagnosed with celiac. I had to take the diflucam three different times for a total of 4 months. I can't really say if I was worse on or off, because I was still so sick from undiagnosed celiac. I am on probiotics for life, and you should probably be on a no carb/sugar diet to help facilitate...

    Most celiacs cannot tolerate regular oats. Oats are grown in fields with wheat and stored in the same silos. As a matter of fact, many celiacs cannot tolerate certified gluten free oats (my son included). Gluten is in: wheat, barley, malt, rye and oats. I would guess that's the issue.

    I just sent you a PM with some good info

    I had all your symptoms and more. I tingled from head to foot, especially my cheeks and the backs of my knees. It got better right away, but took about 6 months on a strict gluten free diet to resolve. I still get a bit from time to time, but it's barely noticeable. Many celiacs have thyroid issues. Since you have tested positive (blood test false...

    Everyone is different, but the thing to remember is that you are damaging your intestines. When I first went gluten free, I didn't notice cc too much. After about two months, I became incredibly sensitive and would be sick for days from cc. After a year or so, symptoms lessened, but then got worse again. Some people have delayed reactions, by days sometimes...

    I've never cooked it, but we snack on it all the time. Slice into sticks, squeeze lime juice and salt and yum!

    My mom used to make cheese toast. Toasted bread, put cheddar cheese and sugar on top, then melted it in the broiler til browned. I know, sounds weird, but we are southerners after all. My dad used to beg my mom to make it.

    Why don't you just throw them in the dishwasher? I did that with our Legos!

    I was told Synthroid cannot be guaranteed gluten free because of the suppliers. I take Levoxyl with no issues. Dont know about the other one, sorry.

    It's really still that way in Georgia. It's been about 6 years since I visited (I grew up there), and in the small towns, that is exactly what happens. Dinner is after church, and "a-callin" is still alive and well. My Granny still had calling cards! I still say M'aam. Can't get it out of my system!

    Dinner grits are good, too, cooked in chicken or beef broth, then add butter and pepper. Yummmm!

    I come from a long line of southerners. The preferred way of eating grits in my family is to smash up some bacon, fried eggs (still runny), pour the grits over all, add a pat of butter and moosh it all up together. Heaven in a bowl. My Granny also added a spoonful of grape jelly to the top. I love me some grits

    If you have not used it before, it makes everything taste like beans I sub sorghum flour for the garfava and/or garbanzo.

    Digestive enzymes can help a LOT for some people. Did for me!

    I was diagnosed first, then had my two boys tested. My 10 year old was positive. So, my 13 year old is outnumbered It's just too hard trying to keep track of crumbs and kids, so we all went gluten free. A friend of mine did the same because she kept getting CC'd from little kisses from her babies. Plus, your younger won't even know what he is missing...

    It's likely your body adjusting to the diet. It takes a while to purge the poison from your system. It would be a good idea to lay off the dairy for awhile, as most have a hard time with it at first. I felt a lot worse before I felt better, because my system had to "re-learn" how to process food. Since I had severe malabsorption and malnutrition, it had...

    HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHHHAAAA! Thanks for the giggles:)

    The LIE to them and tell them all that she has been officially diagnosed, so that they will take it seriously. I usually do not recommend lying to loved ones, but your child's health is worth it. Some people just don't get it. At Thanksgiving, all my inlaws kept dipping crackers into this lucious cheese dip, even after I explained cc. They did it again...

    When I first went gluten free, I had so many intolerances, I could hardly eat anything. (The good news is that most went away). I did something very drastic, and made a big pot of chicken soup with carrots, celery and onions. I ate nothing else for 2 weeks. Then I added things back in one at a time so that I could figure out which things were making me...

    I've been g'd a few times by "gluten free" items. I have chosen to be grain and processed food free, just because after eliminating all the bad things from my diet, I realized that grains and processed junk makes me feel bad. Well, except for peanut butter and salsa in a jar My doc told me that if everyone took such good care of themselves, he would...

    My son tested positive, and I have celiac, that was enough for us. Since he was 9 at the time, I gave him the choice to biopsy or go gluten free. He chose gluten free. If he were too young to make the choice, I would have made him gluten-free. I felt no need to put him through an invasive procedure when his blood test was positive.

    I agree that Super Gluten exists (no thanks to Monsanto). My original point was that the suggestion is that lower gluten flour would not make us sick. Since tiny bits of cc make me violently ill, I would not attempt to eat a low gluten bread product.

    I just made a pot of my Grandmom's bean soup. YUMMMMMM. Boil the ham in water, add cleaned white beans. After an ohour, add carrots, celery and onions, salt and pepper as needed. The KEY is marjoram, about a teaspoon. Add a can of crushed tomatoes near the end, and you will be in "hog heaven."

    I've been on probiotics for over a year. If I go two days without them, the belly bloat comes raging back. I think I am a lifer
