Bernadette- I do remember! So so glad you have been doing better finally... Anxiety is a hard thing. Quite a few years back I went through a bout of panic attacks--couldn't sleep, freaked out at night. It was miserable. Thankfully I was able to work through it...with the help of several things. 1.

ARCHIVED Oats, Are They Ok To Eat?
jenvan replied to nobeer4me's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I second Kaiti. US oats are not really safe, and even if they were, you may or may not react to them. Personally, I'm not interested in finding out and taking the risk. Have you ever tried cream of rice..similar to cream of wheat? That is my hot breakfast substitute. I think it is really good with brown sugar, some fruit if you like...yum! -
ARCHIVED My Husband Is The Problem Help
jenvan replied to a topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
ah, what an frustrating burden to bear! working against your spouse is very tiring... i agree with a lot of what's been said here. i say approach both of them--appropriately explain to your daughter the situation and see if she can make 'good' decisions on her own. also do do do talk to your husband. even if your daughter makes the right choices, he... -

jenvan replied to carriecraig's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
carrie-glad you're changing your products..that is a must. i have been gluten-free 9 mos, still have funky bms at times...it just takes quite a while for some of us. i had to go dairy free...figured out it makes me constipated. if you try soy, be aware, it can give people trouble too. i use rice milk and like quite a bit...some gluten-free ones: wild... -

Kim- I don't have much info on depression--celiac links...but here's some potential info for you below....

ARCHIVED Vomiting Fest
jenvan replied to jcgirl's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I understand guilt is a natural reaction to your son’s struggle…but it seems like you are doing all you can at this point… If it turns out to be crohns, then definitely look at the SCD diet. Go here on amazon to read reviews of the book, and the countless people with crohn's, celiac that the diet has helped... Open Original Shared Link -

ARCHIVED All My Levels Are Okay?
jenvan replied to hlm34's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
hey girl! everyone's bodies respond differently... i have had celiac for years...but aside for anemia, my vitamin levels were normal. (at least the ones i had tested). so, its not too out of the ordinary. and it doesn't mean you have a 'lesser' version of the disease. your dangers are the same as the rest of us--potential shorter life span (yes!), cancer... -
