  1. Maybe you could see if your nearest health food store will order the bread, at least. It is so worth the try. I was making Bob 's Red Mill bread, and now I can't eat it, becasue Udi's is just that much better. I've also had the Udi's pizza crust, which is delicious. You can order from their website, although the shipping is more than the price of the bread...
  2. I am super excited because I bought some Udi's cinnamon rolls from Whole Foods for a special Christmas morning breakfast! I cannot wait to eat them, they look sooooo good! Just thought you all could share in my excitement
  3. The whole foods near me just started carrying tons of Udi's products...get ready for this, I bought the pizza crust and made pizza tonight, I almost died...so good! They have these giant cinnamon rolls I was eyeing, and udi's tortillas, muffins...I thought I was in heaven! Love thebread, but now I want everything!
  4. I just have to post my sympathies when you say your sister-in-law tells you that her disease is worse (in so many words)...I have similar experience. My sister has MS, and has made it very clear that no one (in the entire world) has it worse than she does...the difference between her and I is, I learned to live with my agony from birth and she became sick...
  5. Hooray Isn't it awesome to finally put the pieces together? AND...you have your sister for continued support! I'm glad you are feeling better...loads of people here are also self-diagnosed and never going back. This is an excellent place for resources, and...I'd say that since you are so much improved from the diet, you are on the right track. I'm almost...
  6. I'm not an expert, Iam just takingthe supplements my dr told me to, but the one he said would help with some of the "brain fog" is Acetyl-L-Carnitine. I haven't taken it yet as I am slowly introducing new vitamins. I would at least research it before adding anything myself, or ask a dr about it. Another idea, to find a specialist, would be to contact your...
  7. OMG...she'd get so angry if I said that to her...hahahahhahaha...she's not the nicest person, either. Maybe I should whip this one out at the dinner table on Thanksgiving
  8. Hmmm...she was diagnosed bc she lost vision in one eye (optic neuritis) and lesions showed from a MRI. She was on rebif for a while, and then diagnosed with lymphoma. After chemo and radiation, she had a bone marrow transplant and now she doesn't have any MS symptoms, besides her vision never fully returning to the one eye. It's been quite a while and...
  9. You should go dancing in your not so fashionable leather shoes...and strut the heck out of them
  10. Thanks! Both excellent advice. I'm so happy I can come here and vent. I don't know why I get so personally upset about other people. This whole experience has made me somewhat jaded with the medical industry, yet alone my own family. Funny, my dr didn't have to prescribe me any medication, or sell me anything...yet, he still makes a living *sarcasm* and...
  11. I second the notion on Udi's bread! I've recently discovered it myself and you don't have to toast the crap out of it! You don't have to toast it at all! So good. Also, ditto on your experiences, you are not alone. Definitely keep reading these forums, you'll find the support and knowledge you need to keep you motivated without an actual diagnosis....
  12. I was diagnosed with Gluten Intolerance several months ago by an allergist/immunologist who practices both conventional and some holistic medicine, never had an endoscopy bc I was fed up with drs and the constant amount of medicines and IBS diagnosis'. My husband has suffered from depression, ADD, etc for quite some time. I decided to force him to go and...
  13. Hahahaha...don't think I didn't consider for a moment making a BLT out of the nasty, slobbery, gnarled portion left on the floor!
  14. Earlier this week I caught him licking the top of my gluten-free beer...I think he's an addict!
  15. I'm not gonna lie...yelling DID help...
  16. I know, I know...my husband and I went on a date last night and I had the manager and chef at the table, and I just kept saying, "I'm sorry". I hate all the attention and drama (and sending the waitress back and forth). I've been really researching the internet and finding all the local and chain restaraunts that offer specific menus. I've also called ahead...
  17. I agree. It's a really good idea to have the test done. I've recently gotten my tests back and my dr made a chart of many different vitamins for me to take, as well as B12 injections. From what he explained, a multivitamin wouldn't provide the appropriate amount of supplements. He also stated that it could take a year before I feel 100 percent, so I needed...
  18. I even put up a baby gate, bc I knew he'd be tempted while it cooled...argh. He knocked it over and escaped! I planned, but he outsmarted me
  19. My dog just ate a loaf of gluten free bread, fresh from the oven! Words cannot express the anger...I'm sure all of you know the time invested in this delicious treat, and the fact that the mix cost well over 5 dollars...hold me back, because I may just kill him. Boo-hoo.
  20. For me, people will be talking to me and I'll be listening and I stil have to go "huh? What did you just say?"
  21. Ugh, I sure hope you don't have to have your gallbladder removed! I had mine out about 12 years ago. I've spoken to several doctors who suspect I never really needed it out at all, as it was just a guess that it may have been the cause of my mysterious stomach pain. This was of course before I was gluten free. I would get pain like you are describing that...
  22. I don't have the links available, but I've seen a little research that indicates people with ADD could benefit from a gluten free diet. My husband has ADD, and although he's not 100 percent gluten free like I am, we've discussed him giving it a real try to see if it helps May be another incentive to stick with it as soon as you have you appointment, and...
  23. I find that pretty odd, too. There's definitely the possibility of a false negative, and gluten intolerance without celiac. I think she's probably just trying to say it is a challenging diet for anyone, let alone someone who hasn't had a formal diagnosis. That being said, if you have to live that way, it would be a lot easier for him to try the diet as well...
  24. Thanks for the link (I'm learning so much these day from you guys)...I gave myself my other shot earlier today after a meal and didn't have the same shaky reaction. It must have been bc I hadn't eaten...maybe it was too much of a "jolt"! I hope the treatments do work soon, no numbness yet this week. It's usually sort of sporadic for me, so who knows. Still...
  25. I had my 1st B12 shot yesterday and holy cow, I felt like I had taken speed. I was shakey and weird. (I hadn't eaten yet, and I've also discovered via my dr. That I am hypoglycemic...so that may have had something to do with it). My dr has ordered that I get the shot twice a week (along with a loooong list of other vitamin supplements) . So, my questions...
