  1. It has been a few months now and I have been so careful. My darling hubby made me a home made gluten-free pizza (we thought) two nights ago and the morning after I ate it I had terrible tummy cramps the first half of the day and then had a headache for most of the rest of the day. We narrowed the culprit down to some gherkin relish he used, that had...
  2. Please help I made the original recipe (not the one in the first post) and it was thick and eggy. I substituted buckwheat for the flax meal. It came out flat, quite chewy (not like bread) and definitely has an eggy taste. It's sort of like a really odd omelette LOL It is also very very dry - quite hard to swallow. Any ideas on what...
  3. I have a date with Sven today! My darling hubby gave me the Wii Personal Trainer, and some balance board height thingys phor me and Sven to use to achieve maximum Svenability. I had to explain to him today who Sven is
  4. It's my burpday!!!! A very ancient 39! My hubby got me the Wii Personal Trainer and a step height growy thingy so I am very happy. Who eva faught I would be happy wiff exercise equipment for a present??? Gosh times change LOL I have also lost about 5 or more pounds in the last few weeks! Woot!
  5. Around the front of my forehead. Am thinking it may be caused by pollen as it is spring here. Maybe it is particularly bad this year (spring did start very early)
  6. My poor dad had to cope with my mum and us 3 girls, all cycling at the same time. Even the cat was female! No wonder he spent a lot of time at work or in the garden.......
  7. If you can have one with no other symptoms LOL then it is possible. Last night I started improving thankfully, will see how I go today. I do know bright lights and loud noise did make it a bit worse.
  8. Still there, seems to be bright lights that bring it on mostly. Thankfully not a rip my head oph pain though! Anyone want to help me tidy up my house? I have an aversion to anything remotely related to housework I hope all the phlooies are pheeling much phiner soon! I am amazed we escaped the piggie phlu. We had close contact with phamily...
  9. Did anyone else have really bad times with bran muffins before diagnosis? For all of my adult life and part of my late teenager years I could NOT eat a bran muffin or I would have terrible "d" and a horrid stomach. Looking back now I wonder if it was gluten even way back then....
  10. Went to my parents phor the aphternoon and we all sat and compared thumb sizes My mother has a really long thumb compared to me! Not that it means anything as we are women.... It was good phor a giggle though!!! On a more serious note - any headache cures? I am on day phor and it is getting a bit old.....
  11. I have been off gluten for over a month now, and the anxiety and fatigue and mildish tummy problems cleared up overnight. However, for the past 4 days I have had an almost continuous headache. Not a really nasty one, just enough to let me know it is there. I am drinking enough water. I never get headaches, well very very rarely. Is it likely to be...
  12. Oh wow! That is just what I would do! It kept me full overnight and helped me sleep for sure. It was also cheap in calories LOL
  13. I have thyroid issues. What can I replace the flaxmeal with?
  14. Phanks!!!! Just a newbie at being a sillyak so figgered I would give my brane a brake from all the sillyak reserching!! Lafter is a good mede sin!!!!
  15. This was me before going gluten free. Esp the multiple times and never feeling "finished". Haven't feel like that since going off gluten thankfully! I can empathise with you for sure!
  16. Oh noze I feel myself being sucked into this fred!!! Helip!!!! Is there mushroom for one more phunnytwitt??
  17. This is interesting. I am self diagnosed and have felt a lot better off gluten for the past month and a bit. Normally I never have headaches, but I have been having oatmeal every morning the last 3 days to see how it goes, and each day I have had lingering dull headaches most of the day, which only started when I ate the bowl of oatmeal... Can you have...
  18. Wow this sounds amazing! I will definitely give it a go! Thanks! Now can anyone come up with a home made gluten free microwave to oven pizza base? LOL
  19. I can't remember him ever mentioning gluten or celiacs. I just stumbled across it when trying to cure Dyshidrotic Eczema. Someone had mentioned it could be related to gluten... and well here I am LOL I have been off gluten for over a month now, but less than two.
  20. I am glad you are starting to feel a lot better. Being anxious is NO fun at all is it? I am very glad mine is much better, I bet my husband is too LOL
  21. No treatment, just blood tests every 3 months with my diabetes tests. I can definitely feel them, they feel huge to me of course. You can just see it on my neck (but I am ummmm not skinny LOL ) My doc could definitely feel them too, but my tests all seemed to come back fine. I did have an ultrasound, which showed I had quite a few nodules but none...
  22. What I mean by that is not even close to being celiac as far as damage goes? Maybe I caught it early? Saying that I was diagnosed with IBS when I was a teenager and have always been tired. used to fall asleep at work, which is why i work from home now - easy to catnap LOL
  23. Thanks for the welcome. Does this sound like I am only slightly gluten intolerant - the fact those two things cleared up so fast?
  24. I have been gluten free (self-diagnosed) for over a month now, but the biggest mental change I have noticed is that I no long have high anxiety. It cleared up overnight. Of course I still worry about some stuff like "normal" people do, but nothing like I did before. I was spending all day worrying about stuff that might not even happen. It was driving...
  25. Yet another Cantabrian here, wondering where our winter has gone. I just joined this forum, have self diagnosed and am feeling so much better. When I was eating gluten I was perpetually tired, brain foggy and had very high anxiety (almost to a paranoia level). After suffering for months from Dyshidrotic Eczema I read about how someone went off gluten...
