  1. Thanks for the reply and advice, there are a few groups in SD But they meet infrequently and I have not been able to go to any meetings. I actually drove up to Del Mar to go to a gluten free life style seminar at a store called JIMBOS, I was going to be late so I called them to make sure I could sneak in, they told me no problem and to come. When I...
  2. Hi, I was diagnosed last march, I figured out how to eat gluten free, only eat food I prepare and know my food, no guessing. That theory has seemed to work so far, I was captaining a tug boat in Egypt and traveling so it was really my only option. Thank god I'm not still in Egypt now... but since coming back to San Diego it's been really hard to deal...
  3. I have tried to cut dairy out for prolonged periods but I really see no differences. I almost feel like I should start eating wheat again to see if I get sicker or something? The gluten free diet doesn't seems to work this far, I'm going to go back to the doctors again. The doctor that Diagnosed my was un convincing, about to go on vacation, and told...
  4. Thanks for the advice, for now it's staying off the grass for me as well until I get this thing sorted out. I face a unique challange as I work overseas in a very remote Isolated environment. When I have time off and I'm travelling I try to find and bring back any food health items I can. I no there are a lot of wheat grass free super food products out...
  5. It would be really benficial to me to be able to consume some of these super food powders, usally labeled super greens or such. There packed with healthy ingedients, including wheat grass and barley grass sometimes. The one I saw was also labeled gluten free? Can We eat Wheat Grass or Barley Grass if it's gluten free, or should we stay of the Grass? Thanks
  6. Has anyone tried this My CELIAC ID ad thats on this site?? It seems logical and is alot cheaper then an endoscopy matched with blood tests. At least a stepping stone to those tests? I was diagnosed by both blood tests and endoscopy in March, sure it took me a few months to really figure out what gluten free was but I have been a super strict for the last...
  7. Thank you all for the advice. The issue with the nuts is that I have know Idea where they come from? But it's pretty common here to see shops that sell a variety of different Items in bulk. The pistachios and Cashews come salted, the mixed nuts come plan. I just worry that there are to many unknowns and chances for them to get contaminated. I figured...
  8. I posted a few months back, I have a unique Situation. I'm a Tug Boat Captain working in Egypt, and I travel frequently, don't really have a home. Obviously I face a pretty complex situation. thanks to some ideas from earlier post I have a pretty good system on board now. Basically I have all my own cooking equipment and do 100% of my own cooking. ...
  9. I, have been trying to get pots and pans for a month but appreantly my health is not that important to this comapany. I was diagonsed with Celiac right before I left and unforutntly, I have to travel Internationaly to work, due to weight restrictions I can't bring much back. I did have the foresight to run by a health foods store and buy a bunch of gluten...
  10. Thank you all for the repley's its been helpful. Yes they eat alot of beans, and rice, I actualoly got my hands on some brown rice, which is crazy. I ate really healthy before I got sick, the only gluten I really ate was from occational bread or pasta but mainly from muisli/granola that I would eat daily. I have always eaten alot of friuts and vegtables...
  11. I'm new. diagnosed in April. I though It would be easy to avoid gluten foods, you know? no breads, cerals, beer, etc. I never realized the disease was this complex. It seems managable for someone who lives in a built up city can cook in the safty of there own homes and shop at modern western shops. I however face a diffrent battle. I'm a Tug Boat Captain...
