    ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosed

    Fey replied to ckmass's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    I'm very picky as well. Foods with the wrong taste, texture, flavor, etc -- I just can't force myself to eat it. That being said, there's still a variety of foods I have found to eat. I'm living off rice, pinto beans, potatoes, meats (beef and chicken, I don't eat pork or fish) for meals. Snacking on Larabars (fruit-based, you may not like it, but they...

    I'm on day 10 of being gluten free, and days 2 and 3 I had more energy than I could handle. Since then, however, I've been extremely fatigued during the day, and don't get my energy burst until the evening, and then at bedtime I can't sleep because it's like someone finally turned my brain back on and I get restless. I bought some homeopathic supplements...

    After being hospitalized/taken to the ER more times than I can count since my very first period, with lengthy/heavy/inexplicable periods. First OB-GYN, when I was 10, gave me medication for post-abortion/miscarriage. Not only did it not stop the bleeding, it intensified the cramps. Another OB-GYN, 6 years later, insisted I had been bleeding for 30 days...

    I've had heavy bleeding problems since my first period when I was 10. Unlike you, I was never diagnosed with endometriosis, and every single sonogram/pap came back normal (until I went in for an emergency appendectomy and they found a ruptured ovarian cyst that all the ultrasounds missed for who knows how long). I'll literally go through a super sized...

    I said my goal was to find as many junk food items as possible that were gluten free. It's the only way to keep me from bawling every time I open the pantry and see Oreos. I am eating much healthier (cooking from scratch vs hamburger helper or burgers/hot dogs for dinner), but it's also a relief to know there's a wide range of easily found snacks that...

    I'm just starting out as well, and I am just making sure that I scrub all pots and pans very well between uses. For baking sheets, I cover them with a layer of foil whenever I use it, since my SO uses them to bake Pizza. I separated the pantry to put safe items on the right, and gluten items on the left, so I don't accidentally pick up the wrong can...

    *sigh of relief* Whew, thank you. First day (having had pasta the previous day) I felt awful, but the next 2 days I felt wonderful! Now (day... 6?) I feel kind of cr*ppy again - not as bad as before, but I feel my body has completely changed how it absorbs oral medications I take (7+ pills a day), and mild allergies have turned into full blown hives/trouble...

    Hi, Posting here for the first time and figured I'd piggy-back on this post. I have had a migraine for four weeks (almost going on five now) that has been unresponsive to every medication I've tried so far. After a couple of people recommended that I try eliminating gluten, I looked up diets and came across celiac. I'm a 25yo female, with a long...
