    What medicine do you use to control your symptoms? This is the first time I've heard of anyone actually saying anything about medication!

    Ted's Montana Grill was really great and have a gluten-free menu. The one I went to was in Crystal City (Arlington) and is a very short walk from the metro. I know this may not apply to the original poster but it may apply to those still looking lol BTB, does anyone know if you can get to that Lilith Cafe from the DC metro? I am living in Crystal City...

    I ate at the Ted's Montana Grill here in Crystal City today and it was AMAZING. I've had the flu the last couple of days and wasn't sure what I was going to be able to stomach but seeing as how my Uncle and I are from New Mexico (where 1.2 million acres of his 2 million acre estate is located), he thought he would take me there. [bison (buffalo, whatever...

    Thought I would give an update since I have posted in like eight or so places about my disdain from them. Not only did I get the standard chain-reply, but I ended up getting an e-mail from the regional manager, the owner of the particular McDonald's, AND the general manager of the McDonald's in question. I gave them hell about the return of symptoms, this...

    I wouldn't listen to that. I had Cool Whip with Modified Food Starch and wished it had killed me because I was throwing up and swollen for a week.

    I don't know if this is still relevant, but the Cool Whip I picked up a couple weeks back had Modified Food Starch in it. It did not say from what source but I assumed that because it didn't say wheat, rye, or barley that it was probably fine. Wasn't fine. I hate not half a cup of cheesecake pudding* and was throwing up for a week and was extremely swollen...

    I don't know about Reddi Whip but I do know that when I ate Cool Whip I deeply regretted it. I know that modified food starch doesn't have to come from wheat, rye, or barley but I can say that I was throwing up and was extremely swollen for a week (after being almost completely gluten-free for 8 weeks). NO BUENO. Just a warning. I've eaten the healthy...

    Your left upper quadrant is stomach and intestines. Your pancreas is lower than your stomach. You might want to ask your doctor for an ultrasound of your pancreas. There is also a chance that your "guts" have found a divert in that area. For me it's in the upper left. When I get glutened, the gas from the episode builds up and is immoveable until I get...

    My doctor told me to stay away from inflammatory foods now that I'm gluten-free. Bananas and potatoes were the first things she crossed off my list T.T I don't know if you take any meds for hypothyroidism or anything, but some meds block the uptake of calcium and that could be contributing to your problem. You may also want to see a chiropractor and...

    ARCHIVED Pappadeaux

    imouse1 replied to texas's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    Went to Pappadeaux today for Mother's Day. They have the freshest fish in NM and my grandmother is from Portugal so we thought we'd treat her. After much searching on the internet I was very hopeful because many of the sites said they had a gluten free menu. Not the case here in Albuquerque. My parents went ahead to get the table while my brothers and...

    The McDonald's in ABQ vary greatly not only in service but in the meaning of "no bun". I've given up going there, especially after the last time I went. My brother went to get dinner for the family and ordered it without the bun. It even said on the receipt "no bun" and it not only came with that, but with mayo that shouldn't have been on the burger in...

    ARCHIVED Fuddruckers

    imouse1 replied to Camaro1979's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I am very gluten intolerant but don't have Celiacs. I went to Fuddruckers here in Albuquerque today (87109 location) and they were extremely helpful. They're all college kids, as am I, and I couldn't find ANY information on their website about any ingredient list. However, my brother wanted to go today so we went after seeing Iron Man 2. When I asked...

    Melatonin is a large-molecule hormone that can't pass the blood-brain barrier. Unless you're taking a supplement that helps the brain to produce more melatonin, taking actual melatonin doesn't actually do anything according to the research. It is produced naturally in the body and regulates your sleeping cycle. The pattern you have in your adolescence...

    I urinated less frequently for the first couple of weeks. Then I had one piece of delicious, delicious homemade Irish brown bread and got sick for a week. I have since returned to a gluten-free way of living and eat the same things I did in those first two weeks but I'm having to wear a sanitary napkin because I can't always hold it all the way to the bathroom...

    I would definitely go in. I had no idea that I could even have gluten anything because I've been flour-fed my whole life. I was extremely tired--some days I couldn't even get out of bed. There were days I couldn't walk--tripping up the stairs isn't as fun as it looks. With the exception of overeating, my diet gave me great cholesterol and other stats...
