DoodleDog replied to DoodleDog's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

Vegies which include celery, carrots, peas, onions so far and I am cooking before I eat except for salad...that I am cutting up fine. I also am eating apple... -

DoodleDog replied to DoodleDog's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
How can I say thank you from the bottom of my heart? Thank you so much. Just knowing that what I am going through has happened to others is huge for me. I have been so worried that I have made things worse but your comments make sense. But I am also worried... do I need a doctor to do this correct? For example I did not know that rice could be a problem... -

DoodleDog posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
First I have to say I admire all of you and your dedication to gluten free life. It was this forum that made me feel I could try to do this. I am about ready to give up on this diet I am soooo frustrated. This morning I actually made a list of pros and cons. Of course the pros were much longer with 90% of my symptoms decreasing. But the problem... -

ARCHIVED I Don't Understand IgA And IgG Results
DoodleDog replied to DoodleDog's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I did ask for a full panel and I was told thats not how things are done to start. Do you think the Vit D is an indicator and if so should I ask for a full panel when they retest blood work in 8 weeks? -

ARCHIVED Is Extreme, Sudden Abdominal Bloating Part Of Celiac?
DoodleDog replied to ksangie's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
bekkaz, My symptoms are identical to yours! Fiannaly I don't feel crazy! I was diagnosed with IBS, symptoms exactly like yours when I was 17 now I am 38. My stomach pains are in the middle of my abs above belly button...so I question if IBS is a correct diagnosis for me. REgarding the belly, I am very thin and thought my belly was due to children.... -
To tell you the truth I am not sure. I have been diagnosed with IBS when I was 17, I am now 38. I have had so many additional problems this last year, belly pain, belly swelling, joints, numbness, anxiety, back, vision, concentration etc...that I decided to cut everything out after I read that IBS sufferers should remove gluten and dairy. So I just don...

DoodleDog posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Can I buy any kind of white or brown rice such as Giant eagle brand? Or is there CC issues? Is it safer to buy gluten free marked ones. Any advise would be greatly appreciated:) -
Since going gluten free about month and a half my hands are still falling asleep at night, not as much as before. One or both will fall asleep and wake me up, I move them around and go back to sleep. Sometimes my feet do this as well but not so much. During the day my right hand will swell and turn red while driving and etc...But for the most part my right...

First of all I have read many posts for about a month and I have to say you all are amazing! Going gluten free is not easy and I admire all your efforts!
