  1. 15-20 mins my stomach starts to bloat and hurt. This lasts for hours and then the humdinger bathroom visits are usually 6-8 hrs later.
  2. Yes, when I get glutened. I just posted about this very topic two weeks ago!
  3. My natural medicine doctor was not big on colon cleansing either. He had me do detox by supplements, rebounding :-), and sweat.
  4. Many of us have thyroid disease as well. I have not noticed any change in my disease since being gluten free. That would be wonderful if you experience that benefit. I think it depends on the amount of disease you have, whether you will experience benefit from being gluten-free.
  5. hee hee that was funny Jestgar. Thank you for all the great info everybody. I appreciate it.
  6. I've been dealing with that for two years. Every time I go, I end up with another Rx for 50,000 IUs a week. Usually for 3 months then a recheck. A doctor told me to just start taking 4,000 IUs daily. I do, and haven't had a problem since.
  7. I think at this point, I just give up. I have been eating gluten-free, and will just continue to eat gluten-free. It doesn't matter that he thinks it's not really necessary. I know my body. And I knew he would not hold any accountability to the Enterolab report. Sigh... it's like no one believes me. I will be dumbfounded if my labs show anything on...
  8. I have been gluten-free for six months. I did enterolab testing and that came back with very high antibodies (Transglutaminase IgA: 98 AND Anti-gliadin IgA: 57)10 and under is considered normal. I cut gluten out and had a literally miraculous recovery. I finally established myself with a new doctor and told him my story, and of course he said the stool...
  9. Can I ask if the test was painful or uncomfortable? Did they put you to sleep? I'm sorry to intrude, but my doctor wants me to have the biopsy and I am afraid.
  10. yes- left hand and left foot!
  11. I agree. I think many of us go through this. I did it myself a couple of months ago. I ate two sunchips, just to "see" what would happen. I WILL NEVER do that again. My reaction was so severe, I was sick and in agony all night long. If you decide to do it, just know that you could have that type of reaction.

    ARCHIVED Joints

    Yes, only after I have eaten dairy or gluten. Then it seems to cycle out and become normal again.
  13. I also say food allergies. If they ask for specifics, I tell them. Most people just say "oh" and that's the end of it.
  14. Success! Sweet sorghum flour- I really like it. Anybody else ever try baking with it? I have tried every kind of bean, potato, tapioca, etc. Finally, something I like!
  15. I use it, never a problem for me.
  16. I met a lady yesterday that tested positive for Lupus years ago, but never developed any symptoms. I wonder if that would be similar in any way.
  17. I still use all my old dishes and pans, but that's just me. Never had a problem. I would think the super duper scrubbing would do it!
  18. I am sensitive, and Reese's cups are a staple for me! ;-) Never had a problem here. Did NOT know about the snickers woo hoo
  19. My doctor pushes fish oil. I do think my joints feel better from it. Could be the placebo effect. I don't have pain unless I actually get into gluten. Normal every day is fine.
  20. Agreed- glad you are on the road to no more rashes.
  21. If I don't cook it myself, I feel there is always a chance of getting hit with gluten, even if the restaurant swears it is gluten free. It's just not worth it, but it is almost impossible to never eat out.
  22. Last night got so bad, I thought I was going to end up going to the hospital. Today I'm back to normal. I VOW to be more diligent in reading labels!
  23. Thanks for the replies. I'm so uncomfortable- ugh.
  24. Does anyone else suffer with joint pain from being glutoned? I don't know which of my symptoms is worse... The GI symptoms, or the pain in my joints. I go from feeling completely normal to being an arthritic crumpled up popping, hurting, barely able to function debilitated person. Not only do they hurt, but they must actually be swollen or something because...
