    Thanks for the honest answers. I know I can live with the gluten free diet, it just means I need to follow it when I go out with family and friends even if the dear hubby is not with. After I put this out here it got worse for a few hours, I was passing gas every minute or two. I went to the spare room to sleep just so I wouldn't gas my poor husband. Than...

    I have an embarrassing question to ask all those who are not celiac but eat gluten free because of a family member. I find that if I go out with friends now and have a pizza or something with wheat in it, I get severe gas. And I mean severe! Not an few minor farts, but long ones every minute or so, and this lasts for hours after eating gluten. If I hold it...

    I am so sorry to hear how your Mothers Day was ruined We have never tried Amy's products because of all the horror stories we've read. Stick with a fairly blan meal for the next couple of days until you fell better. You need to give your system a rest after that. When my husband has a flare up no matter how small or large we go back to the basics, easily...

    I agree with ravenwoodglass, the doctor should be congratulating you on a wonderful job done on bringing that number down so low. And you're only 8 points away from where he wants you be below. I think you are doing a fantasic job! And having a more experinced celiac mom come into your kitchen is an excellent idea. She not only can tell you what you need...

    I see all your response are from the gluten free half of the equation. My husband is the gluten free (the one with Celiac)half of our equation so to speak. Since I do the cooking we are both gluten free. I have learned how to re-create some of his favorite meals and desserts so he doesn't feel to deprived. We have found that we absolutely HATE gluten free...

    I understand how frusrated you are! Still dealing with frustrations of our own. I think it might be time to check other food intolerances, not just gluten. Other foods can and will give you intense intestinial issues depending on the severity of your intolerance. If your docotr is not very understanding and supportive it might be time to find a different...

    Keep on being positve! And don't shut yourself out from the world. We went throught the same thing. Friends would ask "are you still on that weird diet?" or "Are you on that diet yet?" It was so frustrating to my husband who has celiac (I eat the same way so he doesn't have to worry about eating something he shouldn't when I'm not home). Than in December...

    My husband and I went gluten free in late October. He has had several wonderful weeks at a time and then out of the blue a day or two of discomfort. He says compared to what he went through prior to starting this gluten free he can handle the discomfort. From what I've read it can take at least 2 years for your system to completely heal, so 40 days of feeling...

    Tried it, it logged me out but I still have the list and not the forum where I can read each one without opening each individually. Is there something else I need to change??

    Hi there! We're from Milaca. I do enjoy the posts and seeing we Minnesotans aren't as few as it feels like. To bad we don't all live close by, lol! I live in the country and raise a huge garden, chickens for eggs, and some for butchering too. But when it comes to stuff you can't grow on your own I get frustrated sometimes because of the limited resources...

    I am also from Minnesota. But central MN and I understand your frustration. We live in a small town and theres nothing here. We have to travel to the twin cities for anything like that. I don't know how far you live from Rochester but there is an All gluten free shop in town that might be able to help you find groups in your area, depending on how close you...

    No gravy packet in this turkey, and from what I've read only there turkey parts, ex. thighs, drummys etc are not basted. I thought it was the gravy packet at first to, but there wasn't one in it and I gave the others away with a request to tell me if they had a gravy packet in them. So far of the two given away the answer was no gravy packet. So I must assume...

    My husband & I have been gluten free since early November. Not knowing that even our toaster could be a problem was scary, as he ended up in the hospital dec 12th. Basically it was to little to late for him AND possible cross containation from items that never crossed my mind. Since than my kitchen as had a complete overhaul, all wooden and plastic items...

    My Dear husband came home on December 16th late in the evening. He had an endoscopy that afternoon before being released home. As it was the holidays we have not heard anything yet. Friday I called and asked that someone look into the results and get back to us. My husband is doing much better and is not falling asleep at 4:30-5PM anymore, he is now making...

    Good article for someone just starting out. However it should have given a web site or something on how to locate a support group near your home. I live in the middle of no mans land and don't have a clue where to turn for a support group that isn't 2 or 3 hours away. So far this has been my support group and where I get some of my information. One other...

    Always, I repeat ALWAYS read the label. I bought a Jennie O Premuim turkey when I started this thinking turkey is safe, and got the shock of my life when I got home. WHO puts wheat flour in their turkey??? AND WHY????? Needless to say I now read everything, even if I've bought it in the past, you never know when a product will change. I just don't get why...

    Simply put, MSG is not a problem for people with celiac. Period. richard Richard, although MSG no longer contains gluten it IS a problem for some people, Celiac or not. Period, as you put it. Do not be so dismissive of something just because you do not have a problem with it. For those how want to know, MSG is made from beets usually. And unless your...

    I have read several books on this subject trying to get an understanding of this disease as my husband and I are new to this. The only book I have found that touches on this subject so far has been "The Gluten-free Bible 2005 edition by Jax Peters Lowell I has quote what I found on page 18 and 19 below...... "MSG or Monosoduim Glutamate. Unless you are...

    Oh and I forgot, if you see a name of a book listed anywhere see if you can check it out of your local library. I have checked out at least a dozen books so far and gotten tons of information. Do realize that some of this information is old but still worth the read. I have found a few I want to buy for my personal library at home after reading several I didn...

    From one newbee to another. My husband got so sick he ended up in the hospital. Have you gotten a new, toaster for your gluten free breads? A new cutting board? A new frying pan? Etc... You can get glutened at home by not replacing the MANY items that you use to prepare your meals. Anything wooden or scratched needs to be replaced. Yes it can and will make...

    Dear Hubby came home Wednesday night the 16th. We have been very careful and are slowly prgressing from soft and liquids to slightly more solid foods. We are having chicken tonight. Each morning he has gotten up and said I feel better than I have in a long time, and it surprises him it continues the next day. Before if he felt really good, the next day he...
