Did anyone else have elevated liver enzymes before being diagnosed? If so, what exactly does this mean? Did they go back to normal after several months?

ARCHIVED Costco/kirkland Brand Organic Rice Milk
GFreeMO posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Does anyone use the Costco - Kirkland brand of organic rice milk? It says gluten free on the box. If I buy it, I have to get an entire case so I just want to make sure it's on the up and up. Thanks - MO -

The pharmacist had no idea and my doctor said there is no gluten in any RX. Hmmmmmmmm. Thanks! MO I looked on the gluten free drug list and the Sertraline... -
ARCHIVED Not Sure If Glutened Or A Virus
GFreeMO replied to 123glldd's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
That is exactly what happens to me when I am glutened. The mucus thing. It may be undigested fat and not mucus. Either way, it sounds like you were glutened. Do you have a problem with corn? I see this when corned as well. Feel Better! -
ARCHIVED Coconut Milk Problems?
GFreeMO replied to FruitEnthusiast's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Coconut milk has a laxative effect in many people. Me included. I can't have it at all. Google it. Sorry it's not working for you. -
Ugh! I know exactly how you are feeling. Mine are 21-28 days apart. And always crampy and make me feel like complete crap. I agree with ya! Sucks!

THis was for my family not just for myself! I am suppose to be low sals and peppers are not low in sals by any means. Thats all we had in the house though. It tasted great but I really need to pay attention to the sals more carefully. Thanks everyone. -
ARCHIVED Recipe Suggestions?
GFreeMO replied to GlutenFreeAustinite's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
How about getting a small George Foreman Grill. I have a small one that will cook 2 burgers or 2 chicken breasts. You could make a burger or grilled chicken and have a salad. It takes less than 10 min. to cook meat on it. It's very easy. -

ARCHIVED Trapped Wind (Chest Pain) Constipation And Bloating?
GFreeMO replied to Kirstie's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
It sounds like you have been glutened. Thats how I feel when I have been. I also had to give up corn, corn syrup..especially in soda would make me feel like that for days. Anything with corn makes me horribly constipated. I would drink lots of water to help get things moving and stick to a whole foods diet for a while. Maybe have some chicken with salt... -

Thank you. I need to take your advice and take things one day at a time or even one hour at a time. I am sure that you go through this too. You can go from feeling ok to feeling really bad in a matter or hours...or minutes. Keeping busy and keeping my mind off of it will help. I love to read too. In fact, I was just looking online for some new books... -

Dairy does that to me too. You may need to go off dairy for a while and add it back later on. Sucks but better than feeling like you do. -

Your positive attitude is amazing! I have arthritis, so I know the day to day pain. Some days it gets bad and when you add gut cramps and celiac on top, it gets me down. I need a new attitude! -

I don't keep a food diary but I am suppose to be low SALS. Those peppers put me in SALS overload! I agree with Ron, if you live PERFECTLY and eay only your safe foods you can feel better. -
I know what you mean! I never could grow my hair long, now it is down to my lower back! Sounds like we are absorbing our food now!

I think you are right that a positive attitude goes a long way. I'm trying!!! Perimenopause is not helping matters. Oh, the joys of being 40+ -

GFreeMO replied to GFreeMO's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I've been gluten free for almost 3 years. I have become a super sensitive. I only eat meat, fruit and veg. No grains and no casein and nothing processed at all. I eat massive amounts of fruit...tons..maybe I need to cool it on some of that. -

Friday I woke up feeling good. I thought to myself oh wow nothing hurts. Then came Friday night. I made this big stir fry with steak and 5 bell peppers and spent the night in the bathroom. Not glutened i am sure..just reacting to all of those peppers. I just get so pissed when I sit and remember how good I use to feel and everything that I use to do.... -
Just wondering if anyone ever feels really really good. LIke good as in before all of the celiac started? It seems that for me, I am either having gut pain, a headache, joint pain, muscle pain, back pain....etc...Every day I have one symptom or another. I guess I am just a little annoyed. The doctors act like if you just go gluten free, you will be all...

ARCHIVED Growing Garlic
GFreeMO replied to GF Lover's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
That sounds like a perfect place to grow your herbs! I have never used seeds. I buy mine at the nursery already growing. They are pretty inexpensive and easier. If you want to grow from seed, Lowes and Home Depot have the seed packets. I don't see what that wouldn't work as well. -
ARCHIVED Pain That Coincided With My Diagnosis
GFreeMO replied to RonSchon's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Ron, Same for me. I can't tolerate rice either. The enrichment is adhered to the rice with a spray of corn starch. Corn is everywhere. I agree, it is harder and takes a lot of planning. I have been at this 3 years. At first, I could eat all of the gluten free packaged foods. Now, I have to stick with meat, fruit and veg only or I get sick. I have... -
ARCHIVED Growing Garlic
GFreeMO replied to GF Lover's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hi, I have never grown garlic but I have grown several other things. I have always done this outside and they don't always do well because bugs tend to eat them. Currently I am growing my herbs in a sunny window inside. I have rosemary, oregano, basil and dill growing. You can grow anything that you want. It will all do well. Not sure on the garlic... -
ARCHIVED Pain That Coincided With My Diagnosis
GFreeMO replied to RonSchon's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I see this when I am glutened or corned. It's common to get pains like that with celiac. When I am glutened or corned, I feel that way for days. If you have been glutened or "blank" recently, you may need to up your water intake. I tend to get dehydrated easily. Do you think you may have a problem with corn? Corn tends to make me feel like i have...
