    I am new to this, too. I was diagnosed only a month ago, but have learned SO much here. There are many people who understand this so much better than me, but I will share the little I do know.

    I don't know much about the blood test and such, but I can tell you my celiac was dx when they were testing my gallbladder as well. I was having pain in the center/right side of my ribs. Everytime I ate, it seemed that someone had their fist under my ribs (right about where your gallbladder is) so I assumed it was my gallbladder. When they did the endoscopy...

    A friend of mine was recently diagnosed. She said she had a blood test in 2008 which was negative. She's had horrible symptoms, including SEVERE anemia. I don't know.

    Great news! It's always so nice to hear about the benefits of having to follow a strict diet.

    Yum....good thing I was just eating Beef "Barley" soup...not with barley but with Quinoa. It was perfect! Yummy!

    I know people were talking in one forum about a book that is small enough to fit in their purse...is updated for 2010...and could be found online. Anyone have any idea what the name of it was? A couple of my co-workers also just learned they are gluten-free so we are trying to compile all of the info we are learning!

    I can't help much, but I can tell you that McDonald's are NOT okay
  13. MelindaLee
    Awesome, thanks for the info.

    I tried...but I couldn't find it. Thanks for sharing though!

    Someone mentioned the other day about buying Red Mill Flours in bulk (I believe at the factory) and pastas. I lost the thread, so I can't find if that person said where they get these. I would love any ideas. I love the idea of buying in bulk...I do love to bake!
  18. MelindaLee
    OKAY I am really getting hungry with all this food talk I always forget about corn tortillas. I've always preferred flour ones, so I forget they are still an option. Thanks all...you've given me some great ideas and recipies (even the chocolate chip cookies!!! )
  19. MelindaLee
    Cool Idea!! I just might have to try that, even if I don't use it for the egg muffins!!
  20. MelindaLee
    This is EXACTLY what I was looking for! Thank you!

    Udi's bread last 21 days in the fridge. They have a $1 off coupon on their web site. My homemade bread wouldn't last that long. Just a thought.
  22. MelindaLee
    Where do you get noodles in bulk? Where is Bob's Red Mill? I might need to take a road trip!

    If her insurance is limiting her seeing a specialist, try checking with one of the local "free clinics". Often there are specialist who will see patients with insuffcient insurance pro bono or at little cost. What state are you in? Are there options for public insurance?
  24. MelindaLee
    I was suspicious...the betty crocker chocolate chip cookies I tried were aweful! I will stick to my from scratch recipies!

    I am certain all of your co-workers lose it at one time or another, over something. We are all human after all.
