I know you had a baby not long ago. Could some of this be from hormones? They took about 6-7 months for me to get back to normal - I wasn't breast feeding. I think it takes a few months after you stop breast feeding. Just one more thing to think about?

ARCHIVED I Don't Know What To Do Anymore!
kareng replied to lovechild's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
That link is just confusing. It is a link to a group that wants to make money off of people with Celiac. It is not " scientific" . Corn and rice are safe. Foods that are tested below 20 ppm ( many certified gluten-free foods in the Us are actually tested at 10 parts per million or less) do not necessarily contain 19 ppm of gluten or 5 ppm. They may... -

ARCHIVED New To Celiac...
kareng replied to SusanB26's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
If you have been gluten free, an endo won't diagnosis you with Celiac. You need to be eating gluten, making antibodies and destroying your intestines to get a positive biopsy. -

ARCHIVED Nightmares/strange Dreams When Glutened
kareng replied to BelleVie's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I suppose they could lie about their testing for gluten or the fact that there is no gluten in their products.... Not sure why a large and reputable company would want to do that? Maybe some of these " iffy" Internet " supplements"? -

Something odd happened and a few people who had blogs, can't post anymore. New people seem to be able to. My personal opinion is that some gluten got to the hamsters that run the main system and they have never been right since. :(

Sorry I was so abrupt. I got a call to go to the hospital when I was typing. Anyway....if you have been off gluten for 9 months, it isn't likely there will be any Celiac type damage found in the small intestines. What I was trying to say is the gluten-free diet might not have any effect on gastritis.

ARCHIVED Need Help For Next Step In Diagnosis
kareng replied to scottb2240's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
You might want to get a copy and look for yourself. Make sure there are even any Celiac tests on it. Can't tell you how many people come on here and say " the doc said my Celiac panel was negative" but find out they didn't have one or the doc ignored the positive, etc -
ARCHIVED Need Help For Next Step In Diagnosis
kareng replied to scottb2240's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Why not get tested for Celiac? Instead of just guessing ? You have some of the symptoms. Have they tested your thyroid? Iron, Vit D, B12, etc? Those deficiencies can cause fatigue and vitamin deficiencies are symptoms of Celiac Open Original Shared Link -

Kettle corn hot from the big cauldron! ( appetizer?) Salmon on the grill with a grilled pineapple salsa, asparagus & some cheesy, roasted garlicy mashed potato thingy. Maybe piña coladas for dessert? Boys working until about 2 a.m -
Those iron pills can be hard to take. I would wait until Monday and insist on talking to the doc. How low are they really? Is he looking for a reason they are that low? Extra heavy periods, ulcer, etc. Google lists of iron rich foods and start eating them. Add a B12 under the tongue. Do not eat iron rich foods with calcium. Skip your glasses of...

If they clearly labelled " wheat" as an ingredient.....I don't think it's the companies fault if you have been using them. You just have to get into the habit of reading ingredients. -
ARCHIVED Am I Starting Over Everytime Time I Get Glutened?
kareng replied to Mike212's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I think it is like " Mommy" said. You wouldn't want to mess up every day or even every week. Its OK to make some honest mistakes, especially in the first couple of months as you are learning.

kareng replied to jimhalpert625's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Won't it be hard to eat gluten-free in the military? MREs seem to have a lot of the calories coming from gluten. Something to think about: I would worry that you might not be feeling as good as possible while in dangerous situations. People's lives may be depending on you. If you have Celiac and are eating some gluten, it will get worse as the months... -
ARCHIVED The Body Ecology Diet - Anyone Tried It?
kareng replied to Lisa79's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I know some people have had success with their own fermented foods. I would be careful of the products this site wants to sell you. One is made with wheat that they claim is "digested". Not sure how they know there is no gluten in it or if I would trust that they have any clue about gluten content. -

Not surprising that alcohol is not allowed in a restrictive diet meant to help people heal from an ailment. That is just normal for many of those type of diets.
