ARCHIVED Help! I Got Glutened!
Kim27 replied to xpaperbackwriterx's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Try a combination of the Miralax and Magnesium Oxide pills. You can get those at any pharmacy, even WalMart, it is usually held behind the counter but is not a prescription. -
ARCHIVED What's The Deal With Post's Fruity Pebbles Cereal?
Kim27 replied to JennyW's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I eat the Fruity Pebbles a few times a week and I've never had a problem. As far as I know the laws don't regulate "made in facility". There are some companies that willing put that on there, but they aren't required to. That's my understanding. That said, if it's a designated gluten-free line within that same facility , I think it's unlikely to give someone... -
ARCHIVED Are There Alot Of Keurig K-cups That Are Gluten Free?
Kim27 replied to tiredofbeingsickandtired's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've had a Keurig machine since last winter and I love it! I know for sure that VanHoutte French Vanilla is gluten-free, that's my favorite and I have it everyday. I emailed the company to ask. If you are unsure you can always email/call the companies that make the coffees. I have done that a few times and they've always sent a reply (and 99% have said they... -
ARCHIVED Suggestions For A Pumpkin Bread Mix?
Kim27 replied to Sunshine24's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Thanks for this website!!! Wow it has some yummy sounding recipes! Especially for holiday ideas! -
Here's another thought... They could possibly have gluten-free options there at the restaurant. It seems to be an oxymoron but I have found (at least in my city) that the Italian restaurants actually have gluten-free menus and are very knowledgeable about it. There is Olive Garden, Belle Notte, Carinos, and Carrabas. They ALL have gluten-free menus even though...

ARCHIVED Redbridge Beer
Kim27 replied to BcG3987's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
i agree with kareng. i like it. it does taste like a "light beer". -
Most restaurants would not allow outside food in their kitchen. Violation of health rules, blah, blah.

ARCHIVED Recenly Diagnosed & Somewhat Struggling
Kim27 replied to yalebabyrn26's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
It has only been a few months. Even if you are doing every single thing right, it's not definite that your antibodies would be undetectable by now. That big drop is a good sign. I went from 168 to 23 in 4 months and my GI doc was thrilled. I think you're on the right track, don't let the doc discourage you, just keep up the good work. -
ARCHIVED The Rice Krispies Conundrum - To Eat Or Not To Eat
Kim27 replied to Tragree's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Along the same lines as this... Are there any other mainstream cereals out there that Celiacs can safely eat? I know about the Chex cereals and I also eat Fruity Pebbles almost daily I have heard there are possibly other types that are okay? It would be great to be able to expand the cereal choices. Thanks! -

ARCHIVED Anyone Have A Costco gluten-free List?
Kim27 replied to jasonD2's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I asked at my costco for a listing of items & they said they didn't have anything like that -
5 is actually my favorite brand. They do have SOY in them, if soy is a problem for you. Just a thought.

He apparently doesn't know much about it. Constipation was my main issue & ky bloodwork & biopsy were positive

ARCHIVED Once You Have The Diagnosis, How Often Do You Go For Checkups?
Kim27 replied to SaraKat's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I was diagnosed in April. After the biopsy my doc communicated with me a lot via phone or email. I haven't actually been back to see her (going to tomorrow). She sent me for some vitamin/mineral tests right after the biopsy, to see a dietitian, and for a bone scan. I just got some more vitamin/TTG tests run last week in anticipation of the appointment tomorrow... -
ARCHIVED Sluggish Digestion Problems... & Why Do I Need So Much Magnesium?
Kim27 replied to Tidings's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have the same problem. I usually take 2-3 a day plus Miralax. Still, I continue to have problems. I don't think there is need to worry about OD of Magnesium Oxide. I used to take one a day b/c it says one a day on the bottle, but my GI doc told me that she has people take way more than that up to 6-7 a day or so. She made it seem like it wouldn't hurt....
