    I'm researching about it and am seriously leaning towards microchipping our kitty cat. He's an indoor/outdoor cat (he loves to hunt!) and that would hopefully increase his chances of making it home if he got lost. He wears a collar and engraved ID tag, but of course those can get pulled off or lost. The Humane Society said that they routinely check every...

    Yay! Congrats on the negative tests. It always feels good to get a definitive answer. I was very relieved when my daughter tested negative for celiac.

    I mix my own gluten-free flour blend. 1 cup sorghum flour, 1 cup potato starch, 1/2 cup almond flour, and 1 tsp xanthan gum.

    It looks like Quorn is working on becoming celiac safe in the future, though, based on this statement from their website: "Some of our products, including Quorn meat free, soy free Pieces and Quorn meat free, soy free Fillets do not include any gluten-containing ingredients in their recipes. However, these products are manufactured in a factory which...

    Quorn does not make any products that are safe for celiacs at this time unfortunately. There are one or two of their products that contain no deliberately added gluten ingredients, but when the majority of their other products have gluten, cross contamination is a possibility. Quorn does not market any of their products as gluten free or make any gluten free...

    I love Bionaturae too, it's the best one that I've ever had. I wish that it wasn't so expensive! I might throw a couple of bags of it on my Vitacost subscription though.
  7. BlessedMommy
    Not Ronzoni, but has anybody tried the Barilla gluten free brand? I'm seeing that there's an option to subscribe to them on Amazon and the price is pretty good.

    I would say that I got there last year. Due to help from this forum, I eliminated some of the sneaky trace gluten from my kitchen and other areas, and I'm sure that helped.

    I'm at 5 years gluten free now and I feel really good.

    How many biopsy samples did they take?

    How did your endoscopy go?

    Do you have access to good frozen fruit in your area? That can be a good substitute for fresh, especially for expensive out of season fruits.

    I'm hoping for a clear answer for you. You've been through so much trying to figure things out! Keep us posted!

    Kissing your husband after he's eaten gluten can definitely gluten you. If my husband eats gluten, he knows that means he has to brush his teeth before kissing. I'm careful with the little kids too. I give them their goodnight kiss on their forehead instead of their cheeks if they've eaten gluten recently.

    If you can't be tested but have serious issues with gluten, then you need to stay 100% gluten free including cross contamination. Being 95% gluten free won't help you if you have undiagnosed celiac. I cannot go back to eating gluten either (serious neurological problems from gluten, 3 months of gluten would likely cause a stroke) and so I just go through...

    You can also purchase dehydrated veggies off of Amazon. I buy them to have them on hand for making soup.

    What about the Thai Kitchen ramen noodles? You could take those out of the package and put them in a cup and add boiling water. Open Original Shared Link

    Anybody have any favorite tried and true go to snacks that you pack in your purse? I've slacked lately on stocking my car kit and I'm thinking that I need to pack a little more in my purse. I ordered some Hellman's mayo packets in bulk and plan to keep some in my purse with a can of gluten-free vegan tuna, some gluten-free crackers, and a KIND bar. Then...

    Tom's of Maine's products are all gluten free.
  21. BlessedMommy
    I just read the labels to make sure that there are no gluten ingredients. If possible, I buy stuff that is labelled gluten free.
  22. BlessedMommy
    Yep, what kareng said! No need to make life any more difficult than it has to be!
  23. BlessedMommy
    I have to stay gluten free, because eating gluten for testing could be fatal for me(due to the nature of my symptoms), so I've been gluten free for 5 years now. It'd be interesting to know if I had celiac disease, but I can't even imagine eating gluten for 2-3 months straight. I had a TIA while on gluten for only 10 days, so I'm guessing that a full blown...

    I use this brand and my kitty loves it. Open Original Shared Link I've read the label and there are no wheat or barley grasses in it.
  25. BlessedMommy
    I agree. If you've exhausted all testing options to no avail, then it's fine to follow a strict gluten free diet, if that's what works to keep you a symptom free member of society. Nobody needs their doctor's permission to go gluten free.
