  1. You are absolutely right it will help someone else. There were many times I sat there in the dermatologists office crying and saying that my migraines were connected to the face sores...and my "fibromyalgia" is worse when the sores are there. And I would say "These sores are burning my brain." They would just shake their head and tell the PA who was standing...
  2. Enzymes, Probiotics, and Vitamins can all be found over the counter. No prescription needed. Make sure they are gluten free. I stopped eating out or eating food prepared by others. It made a world of difference and I feel so much better. The Outback is the only restaurant I will go to and that is only on a birthday or special occasion. It sounds like...
  3. Mention Celiac testing to whatever Dr. you are following up with. Any of them can order the blood testing which is a good place to start.
  4. Probably CC from every surface. Benches, chairs, tables. And flour in the air too. I once had a meeting at Panera Bread. I arrived early to scope out the seats. All covered in crumbs and I wiped them with a napkin the best I could. I decided not to even drink anything during the meeting as I could see flour dust on every table. I never noticed this before...
  5. It took me a year and a half to heal my DH. Any cross contamination would cause the lesions to weep and peel and sting again....for several weeks. I recommend you do not use any products that are manufactured in a facility that processes wheat. Limiting iodine won't really help if you are getting contaminated from gluten. I think you are getting a lot CC...
  6. Are you sure it's yeast infection spots that you have? Have you read about Celiac DH? Dermatitis Herpetiformis is the skin form of Celiac and it would be very sensitive to the cross contamination of gluten and it also can be sensitive to iodine. Would you mind describing your rash? Or spots? Do they itch? Burn? Sting? Are they worse at night? Do they weep...
  7. I hope the Dapsone works for you. Are they going to do blood tests in 2 weeks? You should be monitored by blood tests to be sure you don't get anemic. I had great relief from Dapsone and then a terrible reaction so I couldn't take it anymore. Just be aware of what to watch for with side effects. Many become anemic. Some have no problem taking it. You will...
  8. Before I went gluten free, I was invited to dinner by regular eating folks. They served chicken breast, green beans, mashed potatoes and salad. There was no bread served. So it is perfectly appropriate to omit the bread from a meal. It didn't seem odd to me at all. I doubt anyone will say anything. I surely did not miss the bread when it was omitted from...
  9. Yeah learning about cross-contamination is a hard lesson. I tested french fries, then kissing a gluten eater, then products made on shared lines but with no gluten ingredients. Ugh to all of them. The reaction lasts weeks and it is hard to get out of bed and I can't wait to get back into it. I can't take all my vitamins either when healing. After a week...
  10. Good for you mom! He needs you in his corner with all that is going against him physically. So glad you trusted your instincts and investigated until you found the source of gluten ingestion. It is so hard to know. You are a great example of Mother Knows Best!
  11. I agree with telling your gastro that the ped won't test. Then ask for a referral to a ped that will. Let your ped know that you will be going to another ped until you find one that will test your children since this is an inherited disease. You can tell him you are happy with his work except for this situation which is serious to you and your children....
  12. Yes! Butter your steak too! haha! The only thing I don't put butter on is bacon. Bacon needs no help.
  13. I had to go Paleo to get relief, so maybe the article is right and I was reacting to other foods, particularly the grains. I don't know. All I know is I feel better without any grain and kind of ok if I eat a little rice. It certainly is a battle trying to figure out what you can eat the first year. Is it cross contamination? Cross-reactive foods? Things...
  14. You are very astute. I admire your observations of her reactions. Keep reading. Are YOU getting tested? Are you gluten free? Sounds like you know how to fight for testing. Either way the testing goes, you might want to both be gluten free.
  15. Hey Dave! I hate avocado's too! But I make myself eat one every day because they are so darn good for you. the trick is to find exactly the ripeness you like them. I like mine just barely ripe...soft enough for the pit to pop out but not to the mush stage...yuck. And if there is any brown...I cut it off...it can't be good for you I figure...but I know others...
