Part of my celiac disease symtoms is chronic indigestion. I have been taking digestive enzymes but they don't seem to be working at all. Everytime I eat (no matter what I eat) I can feel it just sitting there. Or sometimes it just runs right out of me. I feel if I could just get rid of the indigestion many of my other sysmptoms would probably get better...

For me - my problems are chocolate . . . candy bars, cake, hot cocoa, etc. I could never get enough of it. In the past, I would even have chocolate bars in the morning. If I saw them, I had to have them. I knew that I had to do something about this. So I got them all out of the house which was very difficult for me to do. But at the same time, it helped...

I am looking for a ranch-style salad dressing that is dry (packaged) to use as a marinate (sp?) on chicken/pork. My mother-in-law is doing Christmas dinner (surprise, surprise) & starting the meal with kabobs. I couldn't believe that she volunteered to do this. It was either she do something or we were going to stay home by ourselves. ...

LynnR replied to BAF716's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications

Open Original Shared Link Canned Spaghetti in Tomato Sauce Orgran Wheat & Gluten Free Spaghetti in Tomato Sauce is produced from a superior... -

I started on a a new hemopathic remedy a couple weeks ago but it seems to be making my symptoms worse not better. It is made from alcohol (gluten free) along with some other things. Could the alcohol be causing my additional problems?

ARCHIVED Gf Bagels
LynnR replied to LynnR's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
My local grocery store, Shaw's is going to try & get some Kinnikinnick bagels for me. They have a very nice gluten free section & have been very helpful. Thanks for the suggestions. -
Over the last couple of nights, I have been getting leg pains in the middle of the night which wakes me up. It is so bad that I can't go back to sleep. I don't like to take Advil all the time so I just try to push my way through it. Last night it started at about 2 AM. It was very painful. I tried turning to a different position, sitting up, walking...

I have a friend who has been back & forth to doctors. She now knows it is either some sort of Thyroid Disease or celiac disease. Are there some distinguishing factors or symptoms that could tell her which of these conditions she has? Doctors aren't giving her much help so she is trying to figure things by herself until she knows more for sure.

ARCHIVED Vitamin / Ingredients
LynnR posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I was just looking at the vitamins that I am taking by Vitamin Power. The multi-purpose vitamin has an ingredient - Green Barley Grass. They say that it is gluten free . . . but I want to make sure. -
Hi Melanie, That is funny that your Mom is a nurse b/c my natural Mom was also a nurse until she was in a car accident & injured her back. Because I have been sick so long I thought by contacting her, I would be able to find some medical information regarding my background. Unfortunately, we ended our relationship a year ago last October 10th....

We usually go out for dinner on Thanksgiving but I was very reluctant this year since only being gluten-free for a couple weeks. But I went ahead & made reservations for 10 people - I could cancell them later on if we changed our minds. A few days beforehand, the restaurant called to confirm our reservations. My husband took the call & asked...

I live in Conneticut also but not near Norwich. I live in Weatogue which is near Simsbury & Avon. -
I was adopted at the age of 6-weeks so there isn't much background information especially on my Natural Father's side. Mom - Polish Dad - German I did meet my Natural Mom about a year ago. She was having "some" health issues that she attributed to IBS - couldn't lose weight, constant diarrhea, & others that we just didn't get into at the time...

Has anyone been able to collect any type of Disability Compensation because of having celiac disease? I haven't been able to work because of this. It is very difficult having to live on only one paycheck. I was just wondering if we had any other recource.

I have what I will call a wierd symptom of celiac disease that I haven't seen or heard by anyone else with Celiac Disease. Some people might call it anxiety but my husband refers to it as Nervous Energy. I am extremely tired all the time. I have no energy or motivation to do anything. But at the same time - when I am doing something, I am always thinking...

We are invited to a wedding in June & I am already getting worried about it. If I could, I would not go. But these are very close neighbors of ours & are wonderful people. I don't want to go & sit there while everyone is eating all sorts of goodies & I can't have anything. Usually weddings have everything from soup to nuts. ...

Can someone give me a recommendation on some "good" gluten free bagels? I tried some (I can't remember the brand right now) & I didn't like them at all. They were very hard even after I microwaved them. Thanks!

ARCHIVED Daughter With Cd?
LynnR replied to LynnR's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I did try putting her on a milk-free diet. It has helped out somewhat but not entirely. I also forgot to mention they she also has Eczema. Upon coming from China, she was covered with it especially on her face, arms, & legs. Now it is much better but she still has it throughout the year. -
We adopted our daughter from China when she was only 18-months old. At that time, she only weighed 16-pounds. She was very underweight, had no color, & could not walk or crawl. Everytime we fed her, she would have acid reflex. But we were told by doctors that she would outgrow it. She always have been smaller than kids her age but we thought because...

The ingredients are imported parmesan and italian systle cheese (part skin cow's milk, cheese cultures, salt, enzymes). Thanks!

Oops - My daughter will be 9 in March. -
I also have gotten the low-grade fevers. I am just starting with a good doctor so I am hoping in time, all my questions will be answered. I usually have gotten them when I got more runned down or I pushed myself too much. But I also get them when the weather changes - mostly warm to cool. I also sit near a heater at times b/c I am so cold that I can...
