  1. I have stopped drinking coffee as it made me sick to my stomach for days after. I also read some where that the roasting of coffee changes it some how and people who are gluten sensitive like me react to it.
  2. I have found that anything that has cellulose in it makes me sick. I have to watch the labels very carefully. Even my toothpaste got me.
  3. Not sure you can get this in the states, but in Canada we have VH sauces that are gluten free and have a great soya sauce
  4. We have tried rice pasta and found that it breaks up easy. Corn pasta holds better and tastes better (I think). It acts like the wheat pasta.
  5. I had a strange reaction when taking Advil for back pain. Rash all over, stopped taking it and just take Tylenol and I seem to be ok.
  6. go thru all the testing first. I am after 2 yrs back on gluten for the last 2 month for blood test and now a biopsy. I has been a battle with the doctor but so looking forward to finding out exactly what is going on and also getting back of gluten and all symptoms going away.
  7. Well after 2 yrs and symptoms back I finally have some new tests to do. New celiac blood work up, referral to gastoroligts(sp) and blood work for lupus. Has been a struggle to get these tests as doc has not been on board with me and my pleas. Does anyone else have lupus symptoms?
  8. Can never cheat, it is too painful. It is poison to me.
  9. You might want to check the "veggie" burgers, I have noticed that a lot of them contain wheat. Just because it is vegetarian doesn't me it is save for gluten-free.
  10. read the ingredients, my favorite candy. But there is wheat in the ingredients of the ones that I can get at my stores.
  11. I too am self diagnosed. My doctor basically laughed at me, did a blood test that came back false positive. Years ago I had allergy test done which showed that I am allergic to wheat. Was told to quit my job at a bakery but no body ever told me to not eat wheat. Have been gluten-free since Jan 10, no more headaches, brain clearer,not so gassy, BM is more...
  12. I agree with you,I too am from Vancouver Island. Emailed the chapter in Nanaimo and no response.
  13. Corn pasta is my favorite. It has more flavor and same texture of regular pasta. My husband who isn't gluten-free loves it too.
  14. Two things come to mind when I read this. I react to regular sugar. Now I used cane sugar or raw sugar. Pre shredded cheese from the store have a powder coating on them that is a wheat product. But I thank you for the pizza crust recipe, I will have to try.
  15. My son has ADD and at the time I was called a "day dreamer". I have suffered from bad anxiety attacks and I am hoping that they are getting better after 9 months gluten free.
  16. Chapman Ice cream has gluten free flavors and are very good.
  17. I too have felt bad after eating a reese's peanut butter cup, I read the label the next time I was in grocery store, had a may contain wheat. Too bad cause I loved these chocolate bars.
  18. Read your labels, Soya sauce has wheat in it to ferment it faster. That could have something to do with it.
  19. From having a restaurant ourselves, yes the au jus should be the drippings from the roast but you will have so many people to feed that you make it bigger. Adding beef base which has gluten in it and maybe a little flour for a slightly thicker au jus.
  20. If you eat out and have salad with cheese on it I would say no to the cheese. Most restaurants have pre shredded cheese and they have a powder on them to stop the sticking, this has gluten in it. So please don't know the waitress or the chef for the question.
  21. If your husband can eat anything than he can eat what you do. We recently went camping and I was fine. Hubby had his snacks and bread, had the same butter. Just a matter of being careful and watch for CC. I would say relax and enjoy.
  22. You are not being agressive you are being safe. I would have sent it back. I have when I have gone out. From owning a restaurant we want you to come back so best we fix the problem then not and have you not come back.
  23. I serve what ever it is that I eat. My husband and mother in law are not gluten-free but eat the same as me except the bread. A sandwich buffet is a nice idea, maybe a small loaf of normal bread for them. Good luck.
  24. I find that when I am having a bad time, homemade soups are what my body craves. Lately it is borscht, boil the beets and save the stock. Same with veg and chicken, save the stock cause it has all the vitamins and good things in it. The soup too is easy on your mouth and easy to chew even with some meat in it. Good luck.
  25. Worchestire sauce has wheat in it to help the fermenting. In Canada there is VH sauces that don't contain wheat products. Knorr stocks (dry and not cubes) don't have wheat products. Suggestion, read labels and look up ingredients online. Good luck.
