  1. Do they have an explanation as to what type of infection could cause the elevated TTG?
  2. We've tried the normal stuff, like snap traps and putting out new trays of poison under the house 1-2 times a year and we now have an outdoor kitty cat as well. What else can we do? We live in a mobile home right next to a cornfield in a heavily wooded area and let's just say that using the normal means to try to control the mice population makes me feel...
  3. How do you do this? Are you a good artist or do you use skull and crossbone stickers? If it's the latter, where do you buy the stickers?
  4. I'm sorry that you don't have a clear answer! Could you stay on gluten long enough to get the rest of the blood work run? It's best to run all of the blood tests, if only one is run, it may miss celiac. If the doctor refused to order it, you can order it through a private lab and self pay.
  5. I'm glad that you're feeling well on the gluten-free diet! Could you share your recipe and instructions on how to make a peach cobbler in a dutch oven? That sounds SO good!
  6. I'm diagnosed with GAD with OCD symptoms and it could be just my imagination, but I think that my episodes of anxiety are much less since I became strict about cracking down on CC issues and making sure that trace gluten wasn't sneaking into my diet.
  7. This lasagna idea looks interesting! Open Original Shared Link
  8. LOL'ing over here at that! Maybe put a skull and crossbones on your food?
  9. Plus, technically speaking, their employees shouldn't be giving out medical advice, right? Imagine if someone was newly diagnosed and was ignorant of some of the basic facts of celiac and thought, "Oh, I must not have it then," and went home and started eating gluten and got seriously ill or hospitalized.
  10. Frozen dinners are awesome! Sure, they're a little pricey, but it's a great and safe solution when I need it. I love Amy's gluten free/dairy free macaroni and cheese and lasagnas.
  11. That's just plain ignorance speaking. If they knew anything about celiac, they would know that you can have the genes for it and have it activated later in life by a traumatic event (illness, surgery, pregnancy, etc.)
  12. ^Yeah, exactly Kareng. I remember one of my celiac support group leaders who didn't have celiac--but her husband did and therefore she was heavily involved in cooking for him, etc.
  13. Well, so far I've found almond flour lasagna noodles, but they're WAY out of my price range to say the least. LOL! Open Original Shared Link These are rice free, but have milk in them, so that's a no go for me. Open Original Shared Link And I found a blog post mentioning Living Bean brand lasagna noodles, but for the life of me, I can't find...
  14. So, the employee didn't know your medical history, didn't know your testing history, didn't know your symptom history and they blurted out that line? WOW! Sure, I look healthy. You can't tell by looking at me that I spent an evening in the ER with neurological problems due to gluten. I mean, the fact is, being sick or not is no proof of celiac. People...
  15. Wow, that is just ridiculous! That is like saying that a person with a peanut allergy is healthy and doesn't look sick, so therefore they can go eat peanuts. It makes no sense!
  16. Wow, seriously??!! I would not only take my business elsewhere, but I would also file a written complaint with the store. Their employee stepped way out of line. Last I checked, there was no law saying that you had to have documented celiac to buy gluten free food anyway. It's not like the employees have to check your medical records before they...
  17. Aldi's has a variety tray of hummus ("hummus quartet") now that's gluten free. Yum!
  18. I'm hunting for gluten free rice free lasagna noodles and that seems to be a tough one! Anybody know of a brand that I'm missing?
  19. LOL!!
  20. Oops, I meant my daughter's new doctor, not her new daughter. Lol
  21. It's good to be able to put all the info together for the visit with my daughter's new daughter. I feel strongly that my daughter needs to do a gluten trial and get properly diagnosed (with whatever she has, whether that be celiac or something else) and it's good to be prepared with information for any of her symptoms.
  22. Anybody tried these? How do you like them? Open Original Shared Link
  23. Thank you for sharing this.
