  1. please let me know how your results come back. I'm really curious and all info might help m,e when i see my doctor again. I do have regular bowel movements again every morning but am still very bloated and dealing with gas!! thanks beksmom
  2. For some reason i have become bloated, and only able to have a bowel movement every four plus days ?? Prior to being on gluten free diet (since Dec 2009) I was the most regular human in the world, my b m were faithfully every morning. Any suggestions or advice? Thanks for any and all input, beksmom
  3. I just want to thank all my friends hee on this forum for throwing out your advice and giving me some directions to try. I love you all and will be keeping you posted as tests are done. God Bless! Beksmom
  4. That is a good point i will ask my doctor to run a panel on food allergies since i've totally changed to 100 percent gluten free maybe i am over exposing myself to an ingredient that i now am allergic to. Who Knows ? But it certainly wont hurt. If you come up with any other thoughts please let me know.. Have you ever heard of anyone with airborne issues ...
  5. I live in Mt Shasta, CA Its Northern California about 2hours from the Oregon border. I was thinking airborne because i have been gluten free since December and i'm thinking maybe now that i'm not ingesting wheat maybe my body doesn't have it in my system to resist it in the air??? i really don't know i'm just starting to get scared nothing has changed in...
  6. It is Saturday June12, 2010. I have been in and out of the hospital for four days with severe hives and back to back anaflactic reactions. Ive been put on high doses of prendisone, benedryl, my potassium is low so they put me on klor- con 10 mg. ive had to use an epi pen once already and theyve had to give me it twice at the hospital. Being that i have taken...
  7. What is cc? And was your abdomen severly tender?
  8. I was in a health food store last week and asked if they had a gluten free section. The employee actually handed me a list of all of the products that they claimed to be gluten free. As i explored these products i discovered that 90 percent of them had printed on there ingredients that they were made in a place that also has wheat, and that they could be...
  9. I have celiac spru, PLEASE HELP. After eating a quarter of a nestle crunch ice cream bar yesterday afternoon and am still having problems tonight form it. I am VERY bloated and my intestines hurt to the point that just touching my skin hurts. Is this normal and if so how long am i to be like this? I was informed it contains barley malt, MAJOR OOOOPS ! I'm...
  10. I want to thank you for you response. It gives me confidence that i am doing the right thing . My son has an appointment this Friday with a surgeon for consultation for the biopsies . Do you have any advice as to what i should say if he tries to say its not necessary at this time. I really feel i want to be on the safe side and not allow him to get to the...
  11. Thank you for the advice . I will look into BVR for sure. Hopefully they can help. : )
  12. From a HR perspective I would just like to ay that I hope more and more people become aware and educated re: Celiac Disease. This is a manageable disease, however the other complications that come along because of it are not always manageable. I'm finding this to cause alot of changes in my life, my families life, and of course my working abilities. It is...
  13. I am waiting for approval for medi-.cal and will for sure go to an orthopedic at that time. My primary dr. doesnt seem to be very educated on the entire Celiac disease and the Gastro seemed to be very busy but hopefully my 1 month follow up since biopsies with him will go better.
  14. I actually want and desire to go back to work. I enjoyed my job very much. I,m just a little concerned and trying to do some research. The gastro that did the biopsies said my vili's are severly damaged and are not sure but hoping being gluten free might reverse at least some of the damage. " I hope ! " And my doctor said there is no reversing bone damage...
  15. What is it?
  16. Stacy, I apparently have been Celiac for my lifetime just constantly misdiagnosed. They removed my ovaries a yr ago saying i must have chronic ovarian pain and am on hormone replacement now. I have lost over 23 pounds, I have osteopenia in my spine, osteoporosis in my lumbar, my hips are shrinking and thinnned out. My vitamin d is depleated, I've gone through...
  17. My newest favorite quote found from a "new friend" "Life is not weathering the storm; it is learning to dance in the rain"

  18. So at what degree of being Celiac is a person considered to be disabled ? Or not ?
  19. My 13 yr old sons labs came back low positive but he has no symptoms should he still go on a gluten diet??
  20. TANKS FOR THE TIP FREEATLAST I APPRECIATE ALL THE HELP i CAN GET. :)p
  21. Thank you Neroli you are probably right because i don't think i'm allergic to soy so it was a reminder that some soy foods have gluten in them. Do you Know which soys have gluten, or just need to read, read, read ? ha ha Also is soybean the sameas soy? Please don't laugh but i'm just getting a little causious. Debbie
  22. I'm a little confused. . My gastro dr said NO Gluten,Wheat,Soy,or Barley. Are these all celiac no no's or is it just gluten. I have noticed in the gluten free mall that some of the foods contain soy in the ingredients. Please help me on these ingredients are any of them or not ?
  23. My 13 yr old sons doctor told me today that his lab work came back showing celiac "mild" and that he feels he is boarderline ? Should he have the biopsies done? and should I put him the gluten-free diet no matter how those results come out? I am a newly diagnosed celiac with severe damage to my vili. I have had to get six infusions of ferritin to bring level...
