ARCHIVED The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original
Loey replied to TriticusToxicum's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Just bought gluten-free sausages for when my son comes home. Now I don't think I'll chance them. I'm so sensitive to everything. Any of you ever get depressed when glutened? I've been feeling depressed lately and I hate it! I'm a pretty upbeat person but have been waking up depressed almost daily. Loey -

ARCHIVED Thanksgiving... Yup Another Tg Thread...
Loey replied to Rowena's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm totally dairy free but do use it for my husband. I drink Almond Breeze and use it for baking. I am still trying to decide if I'm going to the market today. I don't like to buy meat too far in advance. My son is sick so I think I'll make him "Jewish Penicillin" for the day he gets home. I'm cooking rabbit stew right now (my husband spent much of his childhood... -

Hope you enjoyed HP and it made up for your horrible Friday. We're going to see it tomorrow. I convinced Klark to get the tickets online as I think t will be rather crowded. I'm trying to get motivated to go out and do some food shopping. I wasn't able to sleep much last night. For some reason I was in a lot of pain (celiac and ulcer) and had a semi... -
ARCHIVED Are Parsnips And Turnips Root Vegetables?
Loey replied to Loey's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Added lots of turnips and parsnips to my stew (it's rabbit stew which is a favorite of my husband's as he grew up in Spain for a good portion of his life). I initially felt guilty about cooking rabbit but got over it. Loey (wabbit killer) -

ARCHIVED Thanksgiving... Yup Another Tg Thread...
Loey replied to Rowena's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks for the great tips. I'm making two ducks and will defrost them in the refrigerator as much as possible (picking them up on Monday). I don't know what my problem is today. I just can't get moving. Had trouble sleeping last night (even had an anxiety attack and don't know what triggered it). Perhaps holiday stress. God bless this forum!!! Loey -

So that's what everyone meant by HP. I forgot it opened tonight. Our son is rejecting us and going with his friends. Maybe that's what Klark and I will see this weekend. Tony (our son) thought it would be cool if Emma Watson was at the movie theater he goes to (he's at Brown) but she'll probably be at a fancy opening. Loey -

ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosed...and Angry!
Loey replied to Echarais's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I have to agree with (and applaud) Shauna for pointing out the problem with products that say they are gluten free. Part of my problem is that I am so sensitive right now that I can't eat most of the foods that are labeled gluten-free. We do need the FDA to finally back us and make sure the labels are accurate. But we will spend the rest of our lives reading... -
ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosed...and Angry!
Loey replied to Echarais's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I think it is common to feel a combination of anger at the doctors and family members that didn't believe us and relief at the diagnosis. I was diagnosed in June and the GI I saw was shocked that i had gone decades without it being diagnosed. I moved to a new town/state literally the day after all of my tests had come back and my old GI wanted me to get a... -

So glad you found the garage door opener. That's a really thing to have stolen. Hopefully if someone did feel the need to steal your coat they really need it. I'm just sorry you had it stolen. And purple is my favorite color! Good luck with al of the cupcakes. Hugs Loey P.S. BC/BS promised to call me back in an hour (almost three hours ago... -
Jason, Don't be hard on yourself. I've been CC'd at 3 concerts over the past two months because of people drinking and spilling beer around me. Just take it one day at a time and next time get your own water bottle. I hope things are continuing to go well with your girlfriend. Loey

Yes you can scream!!!! SO sorry to hear that!!! I actually brought a urine sample into my GI when I first had my flare (almost 2 months ago) because I don't have a GP in my new town yet. He told me to throw it out. The symptoms of Celiac (lower abdominal and back pain) are SO similar to UTI's. We're damned of we do and damned if we don't. Hang in there!...

I had some puffs of a cigar this past weekend and didn't connect it to celiac. Amazing how much there is to be learned from this forum! Loey

ARCHIVED Been Away From Forum For A While
Loey replied to serenajane's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
OK, this is a long response so grab a cup of tea. I was diagnosed last June after being bedridden with severe D for 6 weeks after a round of Augmentin. My GP thought I had C-Dif. We were moving to a new town/state immediately after our son graduated from high school. My husband was commuting home over the weekend from our new home and in all honesty I didn... -

Loey replied to Loey's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I've used cauliflower as a replacement for potatoes when my son isn't home (he's deathly allergic to them). For Thanksgiving I'm making 2 ducks, a potato casserole for my son and husband and a sweet squash casserole for all of us. The duck will take hours (although I'm thinking of using the convection setting on our oven - we're in a new home and the... -

ARCHIVED Something Terrible Happened
Loey replied to Dixiebell's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I am so sorry to hear that. This is a parent's worse nightmare. I didn't think I could conceive and that's why my future husband and I didn't use birth control. I had a high risk pregnancy and thank God my son was born full term but I had bed rest for 4 months. After we had him we tried to have another chid and I miscarried 5 times. I'm just grateful for... -

OK, just thought this would be phunny and maybe make our Ras-helle smile. I've been looking up nightshade vegetables so I can avoid using them in my stew tomorrow and 5 of the links came up with videos for I Wear My Sunglasses At Night. Loey
