  1. hi Garys girl, Wish I could be of help but I'm like you, playing the waiting game. I've had the brainfog for 12 yrs now. For me that is the hardest part. I don't think I'd be so tired all the time if it weren't for that. But, going gluten-free, milk free & corn free has given me hope. I'm not as depressed because I feel like I finally found what...
  2. I gained 20 pounds like nothing after my son was born... Lost 5-10 so far, it bounces... I think mine is mostly water weight... Still trying to figure out how to lose it... I know that eating corn makes the scale jump so I believe it makes me retain... I ballooned out years ago when I first starting having major symptoms. Was heavy for a few years. Lost...
  3. I don't have faith in Dr's... If this one isn't helping you, you should see someone else. It's hard to find a Dr that takes you serious & listens... I had a Dr who atleast listened & tried to help. But I moved... I have went to numerous Dr's around here & have yet to find someone. But when you do, it's a really good thing Kayo is right. You...
  4. That's allot of weight in 2 weeks... You should talk to a Dr. & have some blood work done. Trust me, I can't stand Dr's... But maybe there is something else going on... When I was pregnant last year I gained 25 pounds & lost all but 10. When he was 2 months old I started putting on weight. In just a couple months I had gained 20 pounds... So, I...
  5. To much magnesium will cause insomnia?
  6. Hey there I have been hypothyroid for years. I don't know how anyone survives on stuff like Levothyroxine... I always felt Hypo on meds like that. I like Armour, but soooo hard to get! You don't want to lower your meds & be more hypo... I've always had Insomnia probs. After going gluten-free it was really bad for over a week. I was getting 3 &...
  7. I had an xray the other day (I have a bad back, going to a specialist next week). Anyhow, the Dr said I am really constipated. I've always had probs with that but thought I was doing better on this diet. I thought on it... Maybe that's part of my weight, water retention & poor circulation? So, it's been my goal the last few days to "clean my system"....
  8. I wish I could help... I'm backup up myself... Wish I had a schedule... I've been doing everything from magnesium, Citrucil, Stool Softners, Sea Salt, even my sons prescription relief... Going to try milk of magnesia today, last resort, ick. Nothing works so far... I do think things will regulate with time. I've been gluten-free around 6 weeks now &...
  9. I didn't really think about the ovulating... I went to a Dr today & had x-rays done. I have a bad back... The Dr was horrible! She about had me in tears twice! Anyhow, not to get off topic, still upset.... Never have liked Dr's... So... She says I'm really constipated... Not that you wanted to know that of course... But maybe that's it... I'm surprised...
  10. What are good gluten-free, Corn Free & Milk Free Snacks? I've been doing well keeping away from all milk, corn & gluten... Eating meat, veggies & fruit. I'm even keeping away from most condiments (Corn syrup)... but here I am, wanting something to snack on... Hungry but not enough to cook... I would love some corn chips or popcorn... But it makes...
  11. To be more blunt... Period like cramps... I've noticed the last 2 days I've had very mild cramps, like mild period cramps. I know I've been alittle more hormonal... Wondering if this is hormones straightening out... I do believe eating gluten for so long messed up my hormones...
  12. Hi Mark, I'm new but will do my best to help You want 0 Gluten, even a slip up. If milk is bothering you, 0 on that also. It's just not worth it... & all it takes is alittle bit... What worked for me is going on nothing but Meat & Veggies for 5 or 6 days, not even fruit incase fructose bothers me also. After that time I introduces milk ...
  13. Armor is natural so can be hard to get. I think the biggest reason is because it is cheap & pharmacy want you to get the expensive stuff... When I didn't have insurance I was paying $11 out of pocket for the Armor. I believe ti's went up alittle since then but it's only been a couple years... I have a hard time thinking of Thyroid meds as a supplement...
  14. I was eating rice but I think I'm burnt out plus trying to keep away from it since it may be giving me probs... Otherwise just meat, veggies & fruit. I'm not a big bread eater so don't miss it... We don't have a healthfood store around so just the basics... Meat keeps me pretty full I guess... I have been eating eggs sometimes also, doesn't seem to cause...
  15. Hey everyone! I'm Sorry, another question from me... I've been gluten free for 5 weeks now. One thing I notice is that my appetite is almost "non-existent".I'm hardly ever hungry, just eat because I have to. But, allot of the time I'm only eating maybe twice a day. When I do, I don't eat very much... I've also noticed I take even longer to eat something...
