  1. I know that this is a hard time at this point however just remember that it will get better. I hated going gluten free in the beginning and now (even after eliminating other items such as olives, cheese, milk, meat etc.) I feel that I'd rather not eat those foods than suffer through the pain that comes after eating them. I agree with the entry that said food...
  2. I get really bad stomach aches after the majority of things that I eat and have cut out dairy as of a few days ago. It's really starting to interfere with school, when I get a reaction it feels as though somebody has punched me in the stomach and my thinking gets somewhat distorted. I had surgery on my stomach a month ago and it took suppositories, miralax...
  3. 1) By all means if you don't want to smoke it try it! Just keep in mind that the effects are going to last longer 2) As long as you don't indulge it in the few hours before you go to work you should be fine. I have school everyday in the morning until noon and as long as I make it through the work I need to do (maybe take a small dose of advil or ibuprophen...
  4. It's a great way to get your appetite back in times of loss. For me it's a never ending cycle, if I get nauseous and can't eat, and because I can't eat hypoglycemia kicks in making the nausea worse etc. etc. Using medical cannibis wisely helps to end the cycle everytime. Even for things like minor headaches, fibromayalgia, and the other many symptoms of celiacs...
  5. Who said that the people posting that they have smoked haven't already recieved the proper licensing?
  6. I didn't see a location, but if you live in the los angelas are I would recommend speaking to my pediatric GI doctor, Dr. See in West Hills. She works with a lot of different people and has referred me to other doctors including my surgeon that did a laparoscopic nissen fundoplication on Sep. 11 of this year. If not, I'd suggest having your regular doctor...
  7. Trust me i know what you mean. Sometimes theres just those times when you know that something upsets you a lot, but you have no idea why. It's the worst when I get into fights with my boyfriend because there are those times where he doesn't realize I'm not trying to be emotional and sometimes there's no reason behind it. There are times when I'll fight with...
  8. WAIT!!! not all are safe! flavored vodkas need some checking up on. I know that all flavored smirnoff vodkas are NOT gluten free.
  9. Here's a link to a wonderful Gluten-free grocery store in Thousand Oaks: Open Original Shared Link Not many cities have the benifit of having a specialty store like this and trust me, it's worth checking out. (Whole foods on Moorpark Rd. is good too) If you want somewhere closer, all trader joes carry lists of all gluten free products in their...
  10. Just a little note*** PF Changs is now gluten friendly :] Open Original Shared Link That's their gluten free menu. Some other restaurants I've found helpful are Chili's, Pizzasalad (if you're in the area), Wendy's (if you want fast food), Chipotle, BJs (last I checked they were reformulating their allergy menu) Honestly if you just alert the manager...
  11. Gluten free food is higher in calories though because it has a higher carb concentration. It doesn't seem logical to switch to a gluten-free diet unless you have proven or suspected insensitivity. His article is very misleading. Look at the debate: https://www.celiac.com/articles/21874/1/Ron...late/Page1.html
  12. Trust me you're not alone on this one. When I come in contact with gluten I get all of these symptoms over the next two day period, and sometimes it's quite unbearable. You just have to remember that it's the gluten that's making you feel so bad and it has nothing to do with outside factors. I've found that taking a vitamin B complex combating stress and...
  13. I was wondering if anyone else has experience chronic acid reflux along with celiac's? For me, the problems started 2 years ago when I missed an entire month of school because i was in so much pain. The doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong with me until my regular doctor referred me to a gaestroenterologist who scoped and diagnosed me with GERD. I stayed...
