  1. You both have my respect for that! I am constantly changing old habits into new ones to try to better myself, but I turned to coffee to fight off the horrific fatigue I felt for the longest time when all along it was Celiacs - we have a bond, coffee bean and I. We dance, we sing, sometimes we write each other poetry. My girlfriend becomes jealous of Coffee...
  2. Glutinator Girl, Thank you for your support and welcome to the forums! I'm sorry to hear you have troubles with yeast and sugar, it is rather unfortunate. The bacon I eat is from Applegate whom has demonstrated themselves as a solid, reputable company, and labels their products gluten free and casein free. This is the only bacon I ever buy as I've...
  3. Thank you all for your generous input. It puts a great big goofy smile on my face to read all of your personal experiences, and honestly, makes me feel pathetic! I don't think I've had it nearly as rough as some of you have, and I thank you for keeping me on track with great advice and encouragement! a1956chill, I will be more patient, thank you...
  4. It's been a week on trying to avoid the top 8 allergens and a more simplified diet, started on digest enzymes, continued use of probiotics, and got confirmation that my B12 is good, but I'm still struggling. It seems with almost every day that goes by I'm consuming something I shouldn't and it's driving me insane I've been very patient with the diet, but...
  5. GFinDC, That is the hope and goal in mind :] I am currently planning on buying Digest Gold as it seems to be one of the most complete ones for digestion, just searching for a good price! I look forward to giving them a try tho as better digestion would more than likely help in many ways. Didn't know about the Betaine tho, I'll look into it before buying...
  6. eatmeat4good, I too am overwhelmed by the incredible insight provided by the wonderful members of this community :] I've sprung into action and take everyone's advice to heart. It means the world to me to get my health back on track and it is always inspirational to read the stories of our fellow celiac's. Thank you for mentioning the Small bowel...
  7. GFinDC, Very interesting, she didn't explain to me that side of it. Thank you for the information, it is a good read. I haven't noticed increased bowel issues because of coconut specifically tho, I seem to tolerate it in its many forms very well. I believe how she explained it to me was that because I don't have enough fat stored I'm not absorbing...
  8. Oh my, what a wonderful welcome! I really didn't expect such amazing insight in just one night - thank you all so much for your time and knowledge. I'm truly at a loss for words :] Mushroom, Thank you for the great information! Your doctor's anecdote on deficiency is quite humorous and rather insightful, thanks for sharing. The only time I ever...
  9. Hello everyone! Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read this post and form a response. I frequent these forums a lot myself and it is rather overwhelming how much information is gathered here, but so very difficult to be active on here with life's way of keeping us busy. A big thanks to all the contributors to this forum and website that make it...
  10. Hello Rich, very sorry to hear about your situation! Chronic fatigue is certainly a part of Celiac's Disease, and I myself am still suffering from it day in and day out. I see your doctor found low levels of a few vitamins, but did not recommend a good liquid multi vitamin? A very large problem that Celiac's disease causes is malabsorption which causes you...
  11. I would have to agree that you should not base your new eating habits on the IGG results alone. I tested via Alletess and my results showed Soy, all forms of dairy, peanuts, walnuts, citrus, and a few others. I stopped eating these foods because of it until I saw a very good allergist who performed a skin prick test and found that I have no allergy to any...
  12. Thank you all so much for your input, it means the world to me, especially now that I am not regularly seeing the doctor that diagnosed me. After a lot of research I found two great gluten free groups within Eugene, OR and here in Corvallis where I am that provided me with even more insight on the options available. I've decided that I will be giving Country...
  13. Hello Raven, thank you very much for the suggestion! I will be out tomorrow at a nice vitamin shop downtown to take a look with your suggestion in mind. Many thanks for the reassurance as well - it is quite the nagging thing. I am certainly eating plenty of nutritional food tho (more so then I ever have in my entire life, one good thing that came from having...
  14. Hi there Jillian, thank you for the response! I'm sorry to hear about the multiple allergies, but it is indeed good to know I'm not alone. I really like the suggestion tho, thanks! The low amount of ingredients in the vitamins makes it simpler and the declaration on their about us section is very reassuring. I just might have to follow your advice on that...
  15. Hello all! I am new to the Celiacs.com forums, but have been using this wonderful website for a bit now for all sorts of useful information about celiacs disease. I suppose a little information about my particular case would be helpful huh? I was diagnosed with Celiacs disease at the end of June of this year after suffering symptoms of it for about a year...
