    I wish I could help but I'm not any help here... I seem to be asking more questions than anything. I have always been allergic to Wheat Starch & Gluten. My worst problems have been over the last 12 years & getting worst. Hair loss, muscle & joint soreness, the Brain Fog is the worst! Weight Gain, fatigue, & lots more. I have blamed it on...

    I find myself getting stomach aches after I eat sometimes & not sure what caused it. I will start a food diary... I know I need to it's just that it's another thing on my list of things to do... I eat Rice Noodle fried in Canola oil, Garlic Powder & Himalayan Salt. I also put some pork chop in it that was fried in the same stuff... Oh, & I had...

    Thanks everyone I have done fine on one kind with no probs... It's this other stuff that's I've had for a few months. It's not that great so I won't miss it... I don't drink wine coolers I like more alcohol in my drinks lol I do miss beer though... I'm finding that I am more sensitive that I thought I was...

    I had a 1/2 of a glass of wine. Its a sweet wine that so far hasn't bothered me. Then I decided I'd like another 1/2 of a glass, but I had drank the last of it. So, I decided to drink some other wine that I have on hand. Within no time I got a stomach ache so now my stomach is bloated & crampy. I also noticed the muscle in my right shoulder is sore all...

    LOL yeah I try not to stress but sometimes it's hard... I also have a really bad back so have to see the Chiropractor weekly to prevent further damage. My husband is somewhat supportive but not very understanding. He doesn't get any of what's going on. I just don't talk about it because if I mention my back hurts or anything, I'm just whining... Of course...

    I went on nothing but meat & veggies for 5 days. This is what helped my diagnose myself... During that time I dropped 5 pounds like nothing. Well, I introduced other foods & had probs so I keep away from them. I have eat corn with no noticeable side effects. However, I decided to keep away from corn 2 days ago & dropped a few more pounds... I...

    Hmmm, I have wondered if my thyroid would stabilize with this... I do feel it was caused from gluten... I have went off corn. I notice that my weight drops when I get corn out of my diet... Which is needed... I put 20 pounds within a few months after giving birth... I've lost 10 in the last few weeks....

    Thank You I did go... Although it was 3 hours later than planned. Had a nice time but hard to enjoy things... It was good for the kids & surprisingly after the day we had before hand, they did really well I did notice I get offended easily... I have for years... But a cousin of mine seemed so judgmental when she found out I had 4 kids. 2 are from...

    I have been gluten-free a few weeks now. Still figuring out what I can & can't eat. So far no gluten, milk, avacado... I'm going off corn also. But I'm soooo grumpy! My Fuse is short! I have 4 kids & a farm, I have to have more patience! Is there anything I can do? For years I have had what I call "White Rabbit Syndrome", like the rabbit in "Alice...

    How do you test for Adrenal Fatigue? Also, how do you fix it? I haven't actually been tested. Well, I had a Celiac test which was negative so I figure Gluten Intolerance. Everything makes sence now... But my Dr bills are crazy & I've had no hep so I don't want to see another Dr...

    Thank You :)I like the NOW Brand I think you are right. I should stay away from corn. It's just been so easy to crave. We are in a little town so hard to shop Gluten Free.Plus, with 4 kids $ is always tight. I try to buy allot of fruits & veggies but have a hard time buying myself gluten free stuff. So, making do with what I can find around here. I...

    I had a blood test recently which was negative. However, I have known all my life I'm allergic to Wheat Starch & Wheat Gluten. My worst problems have been over the last 12 years & recently got worst. So, I went on nothing but Veggies & Meat for 5 days. Introduced Dairy, Bad IBS the next day. Eat Jerkey not knowing it had some gluten in it, same...

    What are the Symptoms of Gluten Withdraw? When I went gluten-free, I had a headache for the first 4 days. I have had nausia, mood swings, headaches, sinus pressure, more fatigue... That's all I can think of... The thing is, I will eat something then have sinus pressure & a headache. I'm having a hard time pinpointing the causes. Then I started wondering...

    I wish I could help more with your question... I'm sure someone else has your answers I just wanted you to know you aren't being a baby. We need to express our thoughts & concerns. This is what will get us where we are going. I know the last 12 years have been tough & very lonely. You learn to live with it yet it's very depressing. I've had my...

    Good Question I've been gluten-free (wit the few slipups) for a few weeks now. Still getting headache. I can't figure out if it's from eating something I shouldn't or withdraw... Mine is sinus pressure & headache... Seems to happen right away after eating, but not always. Still trying to figure out what foods I can & can't tolerate... My daughter...

    Welcome Aderifield, I'm a new member also. I have been tested (blood) for Celiac & it was negative... But after 12 years of being sick I just don't care what dr's have to say anymore... So, I went gluten free & 99.9% positive that's the cause of all my problems. I personally wouldn't wait until October if I were you. A diagnosis is a wonderful...

    I went on a 5 day Gluten Free, Milk Free, Sugar Free diet which was my breakthrough. I introduced dairy & my IBS came right back. So I've been very careful with that... What is a good digestive enzyme? I'm taking Apple Cider Vinager, Omega 3, Multivitamin (Gluten free), D3, Not Acidophiles but the good bacteria pills... Forget what it's called... &...

    You guys are great! I'm slowly learning... I need to take the time & sit down to read more... I will... I'm 99.9% sure Gluten is the cause of all my problems. It's my understanding that because of it I have become "sensitive" to other things... Primarily Milk... But it seems like other things like Avacado... I'm still learning... Correct me if I...

    Thank You everyone I found another food list of things to avoid. I had some lunch meat on my salad & I'm wondering if there was gluten in it. I read the ingredients & everything... But maybe I missed something? I eat a piece of hard candy tonight & feeling bloated & alittle crampy right away. What on earth is in hard candy hat could...

    I only went gluten-free a few weeks ago & very new to the board. Anyhow, I am used to be bloated, weight gain, water retention, poor circulation... Just to name a few... But being gluten-free I thought these things would be better by now... Today I noticed I am REALLY bloated! I actually look pregnant! I can't be... I am on BC & getting my periods...

    Thank You everyone I'm Sorry you are all having to go through this also! I'm glad I'm no longer alone though My husband tries to understand but he never will... It just effects me in so many different ways. So farm my IBS is gone but there is something that affects me lightly every so often... No idea what it is yet... Is it normal to be really...

    Please read my story! When I was a baby I couldn't eat my baby foods because they had wheat. Wheat would give me a rash. Well, through the years it seamed to of went away. But, through my childhood I'd feel sick allot & everyone thought I was faking. Then when I was 13 I started getting a rash again. Stayed away from anything that was "Wheat" except...

    I went Gluten & Dairy Free a few weeks ago. I've had probs for 12 years, always allergic to Wheat Gluten & Starch but never thought I had Celiac or Gluten Intolerance. Anyhow, for as long as I can remember I've had floating stools.... You say it's fat not being absorbed but why then have I put so much weight on? I should back up... I piled on weight...
