ARCHIVED Brand New Here, Please Help
hazelbrown10 replied to Mommy2GlutenFreeChild's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Hi, Sorry you're having a hard time. I imagine packing lunch for a kid that could eat everything would be challenging since most kids are picky eaters - so packing a really good gluten-free lunch can be hard if your kid is used to lots of gluten snacks. Anywho - this woman blogs about the lunches she packs for her first grader and toddler: Open Original... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Challenge Questions
hazelbrown10 replied to hazelbrown10's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thanks - I will probably do that. I got my gene test results back and they are: HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 1 0201 HLA-DQB1 Molecular analysis, Allele 2 0202 Serologic equivalent: HLA-DQ 2,2 (Subtype 2,2) So at least that has somewhat calmed my fears that it's all in my head... even though of course I could still have gluten... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Challenge Questions
hazelbrown10 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi again everyone, Thanks so much for your replies to my last post. I am learning so much on this forum! Right now I'm 10 days into a 6 week gluten challenge. Since my symptoms weren't too horrible while I was eating gluten, I didn't think it would be too bad - but it IS! The day I started gluten again I got a headache which lasted off and... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Challenge?
hazelbrown10 replied to Steviac's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm doing a gluten challenge right now, for six weeks at least. I had forgotten how weird brain fog is until it returned last night. When you see a wet dog shaking his whole body to get the water off... that's what I wanted to do to shake the brain fog off! Anyway, I think my doctor has learned a lot about celiac since my last appointment! She even... -
ARCHIVED Low B12, Tinea Veriscolor, Gluten Problems?
hazelbrown10 replied to hazelbrown10's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi everyone, Thanks for the comments. I will post an update if the doctor says anything useful, which hopefully she will. In the meantime I will remain gluten free Tinea versicolor... it's a weird thing. It's not gross or anything, just THERE... inexplicable! Tea tree oil didn't work for me either, though it smelled like it was strong enough... -
ARCHIVED Should I Bother Getting Tested?
hazelbrown10 replied to GlutenCanKissMyButt's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
If I were you, I'd get tested, even though the weeks on gluten beforehand will not be fun. Even if you will go gluten-free after testing no matter the result, I totally get why you want a diagnosis. My friends seem to be humoring my avoidance of gluten, but I can tell they think I'm just overreacting. As do the doctors... sigh. With a diagnosis people... -
ARCHIVED Low B12, Tinea Veriscolor, Gluten Problems?
hazelbrown10 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi everyone, I'm glad I found this forum! Hopefully you're not all sick of reading "what's going on?" type posts. I have suspected gluten problems for a few years now, after having all the usual symptoms - tummy aches, digestive issues, fatigue, fuzzy head, need to eat all the time. I first noticed these problems in 2006 after going through the...
