I have tried a lot of them this one is my favorite so far. I did buy a less expensive one from my local grocery store under $2 for a bag of brown rice gluten free pasta. I have yet to...

ARCHIVED Does This Sound Like Celiac?
serenajane replied to veggiebite's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Well I had the cloudy urine with no uti too I also tested positive for blood in urine prior to being diagnosed the cloudy urine I have experienced before and after diagnosis. After being on gluten free diet 4 months or so ( NO CHEATING) I didn't even eat out anywhere during this time I was just trying to wrap my head around the label reading and the... -

Wow hope you aren't offended but it seems like you have some real (JERKS) in your family. I can see asking to bring something that you can eat because they can't be sure of gluten in foods but to ask you not to come how terrible. my sister in-law has tweaked Thanksgiving dinner for me she isn't going to stuff the bird and she will use organic gluten...

Hello all I was just wondering everyone if I got the same information as others I asked my GI about gluten in cosmetics and shampoos (if I needed to avoid them) She said if i didn't have DH everything else was alright except lipsticks and glosses that may be ingested by default. I get dry patches on my hands sometimes but I am unsure the cause. ...

serenajane replied to serenajane's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Wow sounds like you have been through it.... It is so awful to feel bad and then get the run around and feel bad for longer than needed. I have been trying to find out what was wrong with me since around age 27 and I am 40 early on I had lots of bacteria testing and blood work the doctors passed it off as stress. I feel like it is being noticed and... -

serenajane replied to serenajane's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I agree this is a great place and people are very kind and supportive. I was officially diagnosed in feb of this year. for the first few months I didn't eat out at all and I started to fell a little better. I felt the brain fog lift. It wasn't very responsible of me to have my fair day. but I did it and I learned that it didn't make me feel very good... -

Thank you I do try to avoid the gluten we have a no double dipping in the butter, peanut butter and other shared condiments in the house. My husband and son are very good about it. We try to have most meals at home and they are gluten free. I think we are on our way to only having udis bread in the house as well my husband likes it and he isn't crazy about... -

serenajane replied to serenajane's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I don't eat chow mein noodles I have everything made free of wheat and gluten when I have had chinese food. I have been being very careful not to eat gluten laced things. I don't know what got in to me about the fair but I convinced myself that I was giving myself a day off. I am really pretty careful about what I eat. I mentioned the holidays... -
Hello all, I am back checking in on the celiac forum. I was being good on the gluten free diet I had a couple of things by mistake later finding out I had ate something containing gluten. So after 8 mos being very cautious passing up cakes and all kinds of other delicious temptations the annual fair was in town and I decided that I was going to have a big...

you would be surprised my 6 yr old son has a good idea of the things that i am allowed to have. My husband goes on the hunt and brings my home gluten free things to try all the time. They are very understanding they make sure that they use their own butter. and we don't double dip in any containers when making sandwiches. It takes a little adjusting but ...

ARCHIVED How Well Do You Feel Gluten Free?
serenajane replied to dhiltonlittle's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have been gluten free about 6 weeks now. After the first 2 weeks the fog lifted (eyes would feel heavy felt like I was looking at the world through a haze) I felt less bloat at first. I am still making the frequent trips to the lavatory. I am still not fully absorbing the nutrients I should be. I have also gained a little weight not real happy about... -
ARCHIVED Falling Off The Gluten-Free Wagon

I had gluten free snicker doodles they were soft and they were yummy. I think made by enjoy life. I found them in the bread and cookie isle of my local grocery store -
ARCHIVED Falling Off The Gluten-Free Wagon
serenajane replied to kare101's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I must say at first glance the comment seems a bit lacking in the compassion area. However it is really hard to know how someone's tone is intended with typed words. I don't think they intended to discourage or to be hurtful. For me I was sad when my diagnosis came about. BUT I know that I can choose to live a better life doing it gluten free or I... -
ARCHIVED Having Gluten Nightmares
serenajane replied to sandsurfgirl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I hear you. I have had dreams that I cheated and they feel so real I have to remind myself that it was a dream. I had similar dreams years ago. I used to be a terrible nail bitter and at the age of 16 I stopped. When my nails grew in people would comment on how nice they were. I groomed them often to change my habit. Well I would dream that I would bite... -
ARCHIVED This Is An Odd Development
serenajane replied to sandsurfgirl's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
My sense of taste is a bit different as well. I found some gluten-free snicker doodles in the cookie/cracker/bread isle I thought they were great my husband not so much he feel like they are gritty. I am finding more gluten-free signs at the grocery store every time I visit. I hope this means that the more that is sold the better the taste and I hope it will... -

serenajane replied to canutillomom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
WOW I am really taken back by this, What a NASTY _____ (well you know what she is) I have had one of my co-workers show me a bread recipe that I could make just playing of course. They have listened to me ramble on and on about gluten free this and that and they are good but most likely tired of hearing it. LIVE WITH IT AND YOU WILL REALLY BE ANNOYED.... -
I wanted to go to brunch with my family this am. I did pretty well avoiding the things that contain gluten. I stayed away from the chocolate fountain which is not very good anyway. I even stayed away from the little cakes and muffins. the one thing that gets me is the chinese food. I am ticked that soy sauce contains gluten. They have a sushi section......

ARCHIVED 1 Month Gluten Free Things Aren't That Much Better
serenajane replied to serenajane's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thank you it always helps to talk to others just to see if something stands out that I am not seeing. The bars that I made didn't contain oats I have been holding off trying them. The GI doc said that I could have multi symptoms and pretty much told me just because I have celiac doesn't mean I don't have IBS as well. It is odd that I was feeling better... -
ARCHIVED 1 Month Gluten Free Things Aren't That Much Better
serenajane posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have been gluten free 1 month I have been careful about ready and finding out the hidden glutens in all our food. Has anyone been sensitive to apples or bananas? I have had cheese and corn so it is hard to tell if I am sensitive to one or the other. I never used to have a problem with cheese or any dairy product. I have used a recipe that I got for gluten...
