    I haven't posted on here in a while...I sort of fell off the gluten free wagon. I went to the doctor for severe constipation, got diagnoised with Celiac, spent two years strictly gluten free, still severly constipated, threw in the towel and started eating gluten again.... It has been about a year of gluten binging...and along with it came an episode...

    <br /><br /><br /> I am still pretty new to figuring out the dairy intolerance, i will still need to narrow it down as to whether it's lactose or casin, i am pretty sure it's lactose, but not 100%. I am off on vacation next week and on a cruise, so i am not going to go crazy over this til i get back. i really appreciate all the help...

    After many months of narrowing it down, i think i have dairy issues. Seems like i'm fine if i eat say gluten free bread that has milk in it, but if i were to have ice cream, or lots of cheese i am not. I have read that you can't test for dairy issues.....does anyone else experience this?

    are you doing weight watchers on line or going to a meeting? I want to try weight watchers, but wasn't sure if it was adaptable to the gluten free diet, i made a post on here about it but no one replied If you have good weight watchers experience, i would love to know!

    So, i am one of those celiac's that gain weight...like it's my job! I am considering doing weight watchers online, and am wondering if anyone has tried it and if it's been adaptable to the gluten free lifestyle. Thanks!!

    Yesterday was a rock bottom sort of day. I am to the point where i am aware that the little bit of gluten here and a little bit of gluten there is hurting me...back when this first started, it didn't bother me..so i am sure my intestines are like really??? You did this to us again???? I am an excellent cook (even if i do say so myself) and can, have...

    So, 2.5 yeas after diagnosis, still not feeling better, still presenting to my doctor with the same symptoms, have done the food journal, and had other tests run and no other food allergies, so we'll rule that out. My doctor suggested retesting my Celiac, and had me eat gluten for 2 weeks.... blood test showed positive, so we didn't bother with another endoscopy...

    I have not been tested for this. I googled it, and it sounds like some of the symptoms i have ...i am going to ask to be tested! Thank you for the suggestion!

    His theory is that because my small intestine holds the waste for such long periods of time, that is is causing the ulcers. Like, if you lay in bed for two weeks and never get up or move in anyway, you would have a bed sore, that kind of thing. He feels that by relieving the constipation, the ulcers will heal, he didn't say i wasn't Celiac, he just thought...

    SBC is saccharomyces boulardii and he's not making money off me, he treats me at no cost. I sought him out for help and so far, he has been the only doctor in 11 years to tell me that pooping twice a month is NOT normal. It isn't feasable to scope the entire small intestinal tract i am glad to be feeling better for the first time in a long time, and...

    After two years of following a gluten free diet ( to my knowledge, i have not consumed gluten in two years) I am still feeling the same. I sought out a new doctor, he seems to think i don't have Celiac, but that I have ulcers in my small instestine that are being aggrivated by gluten, due to SEVER constipation. He gave me some stuff called SBC to help regulate...

    I follow a strict paleo diet, gluten free, grain free, dairy free. My only indulgence is diet mountain dew. I feel better most days, but when i feel sick, it's like it was before going gluten free. I eat only fresh meat and veggies..all house hold members follow this diet. All vitamins and supplements i take are certified gluten free. I am not sure how...

    I have been gluten free for two years tomorrow....i still feel like crap...there could be a number of reasons...like for example, i hate my job!!!!!!!! and I like being sick from it.....but, I am not here to complain about work.. I was diagnoised with Celiac via an intestinal biopsy.....the blood test was negitive for the IGA stuff they look for.....it...

    OK, typical food day.....breakfast, eithers hard boiled eggs and bacon, or salad. it depends on what is in the fridge. I usually can't eat to early in the AM, so i make my breakfast and bring it to work with me to eat after 8am. When i first went gluten free, I craved a lot of salad, so i got use to eatting that for breakfast. When we have spaghetti for...

The trainer told me that if it was water retention it would also show in my neck, but my waist was up 2 inches from when i started and my neck was down 1. My weight is exactally...

    The sugar cravings are terrible after a gluten attack..otherwise, i am able to control them much better. My doc has me drinking coconut water and taking magnesium. I do eat a ton of veggies and can now tell when i need to eat them....even my boyfriend has to have them now I also often eat dinner for breakfast, i never liked cereal prior to Celiac....so...

    Can Celiac cause panic attacks and seizures? For a 4 month period approximately 6 years ago i had panic attacks during a very stressful time in my life.....as soon as the stress ended, so did the attacks. Now they are back, and with a vengeance. They have been mildly coming back over the last year (I will have been gluten free and a diagnoised Celiac...

    So..Monday...against my better judgement, but seriously, sometimes you just gotta follow your heart...I got an ice cream at the local scoop shoppe! I got it in a dish, and i asked them to get a clean scoop....I know that won't stop the cross contamination but it will help some.....anyway, i got a scoop, and the best ice cream i have had in a long time and...

    I think I got glutened at my mom's this weekend..and perhaps that is why I am crying my eyes out while I type this. You all on this forum have been so kind to me, maybe you can help with this problem too. I have been dating my boyfriend for 6 months now. He is very good to me, caring, concerned about my feelings, understanding and careful with gluten...

    Last night I dreamt of Burger King Whoppers, Greasy Sweet and Sour Chicken with Pork Fried Rice and two egg rolls on the side....and Beef Wellington. With the exception of the Beef Wellington, which I have never had and only seen on episodes of Hell's Kitchen, I am easily able to make my own "whoppers" and my boyfriends says my gluten free chinese food is...

    Yeah, i found the same thing on Wikipedia....and you're right, there doesn't appear to be any gluten in it. It could be the mold I am going to eat it again and see if i get sick! it was the best meat i have ever eaten in my life!! It's expensive so i feel guilty buying it again to see if that is what made me ill.....
