ARCHIVED Symptoms Worse After Starting The Diet?
kareng replied to Raeanne's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Enterolab's "Do it yourself lab tests" cannot diagnosis Celiac disease. Why don't you want to get a legitimate diagnosis? One you could use if you are ever hospitalized or as a reason to get your kids tested? Open Original Shared Link -
ARCHIVED Is My Husband A Celiac? He Will Die If He Eats Wheat!
kareng replied to frustratedpenguin's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
As serious as your husbands issues seem to be, I have to wonder why you want to go "the self-diagnosis with unproven internet tests" route? I think there may be some legitimate "cross-reactivities" with allergies but that wouldn't apply to Celiac as there is no scientific evidence for that.

ARCHIVED Blog Permanently Says "draft"
kareng replied to CaliSparrow's topic in Board/Forum Technical Help
I don't know either. It's just an interesting fact for the people who can fix the system to consider. Perhaps a system upgrade messed up people with previous blogs in some way. For what I know of computers - it could be that the gerbil that runs the " publish blog" wheel has run off. -

ARCHIVED Blog Permanently Says "draft"
kareng replied to CaliSparrow's topic in Board/Forum Technical Help
We seem to be having this issues with some accounts. Have you had a blog previously? Do you have an option for "publish"? Do you have more than 1 draft? Until this is worked out, Peter has been going in with his Super Powers and publishing them. -

ARCHIVED Lunches
kareng replied to GlutenStinks15's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I knew I had replied to one with a lot of ideas before. I used the google in the top right on the main forum page (if you use it from this page, it will just search this parent section). I put my name in for poster and the word lunch and selected to look at posts. -
I noticed this would happen if I had been in one position for a long time. Like laying down and then getting up , or sitting and then standing. Its like it was dammed up and the shift in the body position released it.

ARCHIVED Confused Whether To Start Gluten Free Diet
kareng replied to kmb4's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
About 30% of the population have at least one of the genes for Celiac. Most do not develop Celiac. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link However, why not get tested for Celiac? Do not stop eating gluten until all testing is finished - blood tests and possibly endoscopy. Open Original Shared Link -
ARCHIVED Hi, New Here, And To Gluten-Free Cooking.
kareng replied to ChiTownZee's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Are you doing gluten-free baked goods because its the " trendy" diet? Or for people with a real medical need? Those with a real medical need a lot more care in the preparing of the foods. There are many ways to contaminate the " gluten-free" baked goods and make them unsafe for Celiacs. For example, using the same kitchen, equipment, display cases, etc... -
ARCHIVED Candida Related? Doctor's Stumped
kareng replied to ilikepie's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Looks like she was last on the forum in 2011. You could try to send a personal message? Some people have that set up to notify them by email. If she would still have that email, maybe she would respond. I know we have had quite a few people who believe they have candida. Perhaps if you used the google function in the top right of the main forum page? ... -

ARCHIVED What Happens If You Eat Dairy Even Though The Villi Can't Absorb It?
kareng replied to Mike212's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Lots of people cut dairy but its not because nutrients aren't absorbed. It's because the substance that " digests " or breaks down lactose ( in milk) is produced int the villi. If the villi are damaged, they can't produce this substance. Some dairy products have more lactose than others. Some of your villi are not damaged. It would be rare for all of... -
ARCHIVED The New Celiac Drug Is Out There
kareng replied to gatita's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I figured these two people don't know how to cook because they seem to believe that gluten-free food is only produce and meat or not enjoying life. They seemed smart enough to know that doesn't have to be true, so I figured they may not be able to cook. Because gluten-free food is more than boring, unseasoned food and can be quite delicious and even... -
ARCHIVED The New Celiac Drug Is Out There
kareng replied to gatita's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Some of these posters may be a bit like my dad - it doesn't matter how much instructions you give them - they just can't cook. Eating more than just boring, plain food (when you can't eat at nice restaurants all the time) is something they aren't capable of if they must cook it. So, I suppose, for those people, I can see how Celiac really limits what they... -
yes that is true. I have seen that numerous places. It appears people with Celiac may require multiple tries at the Hep B vaccine. This does not appear to be true with other vaccines.

ARCHIVED Celiac Blood Panel - gluten-free Free Prior?
kareng replied to RMay's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It should be fine. But if you want to make sure...eat gluten for a few days and then get your blood work. You also need gluten in your system for the endoscopy if you choose to have it.
