    Just curious i know in the begginning of the diet they say to steer clear of dairy so you can heal properly but it seems like noone here eats dairy atall.I want to know if theres any celiacs out there that successfully eat dairy without reaction and if so how long did it take to get to that point?? Thank youu

    Hey Wendi Thank you for always answering the posts you are great!!!!Im soo happy to hear you dont have cancer, i am more scared because my grandfather died at age 47 due to non hodgkins disease and i know he was never diagnosed my mom said he didnt have stomach problems ive just heard the realtion bewtween celiac and that specific cancer and makes me think...
  17. Mama Melissa
    Im 2 months on the diet and the same thing happened to me,personally i think in the begginning since its still the healing stage you are going to react to proccessed gluten free foods.I would say try to stick to natural fruits, vegis, baked potatoes, egss if they go well with you and meats and give yourself some time to heal which could be months depending...

    thank you sand and surf i mean im really not sure how sensitive i am to cc that whole week i didnt feel well i added coffee and as soon as i took it out i was fine so i tend to think it was from the acidity of the coffee and not cc,they said i had a mild case and it just started by looking at biopsy which leads me to believe i cant be that bad, i just read...

    Hey guys, So ive been frequenting this website for about 2 months since ive been diagnosed and its been a lifesaver especially when i feel alone like noone understands. I know you all do:)Today i went to my inlaws for birthday cake(which i couldnt have) for my hubby so i brought my own gluten-free cupcakes which were great i must say:)I made sure i made...

    aww its nice to hear something positive good for you sweetie:) I wished i didnt live so far away i could really use a gluten-free night out as well:)
  22. Mama Melissa
    thats soo weird you guys are talking about sickness when i was little i always got ear infections,i had the fifth disease as well and i have had chicken pox 2 times... i am now 27 and just diagnosed celiac after stomach problems they seem to think i just developed it by my biopsy but i beg to differ:)
  23. Mama Melissa
    i had colic when i was a baby as well... and also had an intestinal virus and was hospitalized at 6 months i def think there is a connection btw i am 27 and just got diagnosed myself am struggling along the way but trying to get past this i def seem more sensitive since cutting out gluten:(

    thank you everyone this is seriously a pain in the butt if i avoid everything i "think" im reacting to i will have "nothing" to eat and im getting soo skinny cause i am starting to not even want to eat its soo frusterating i almost wish i never went gluten-free:(
  25. Mama Melissa
    thank you for your input i had my thyroid looked at 2 months ago they said it was fine:) as for a food diary i tried that but my body was reacting to certain things one week and then the next i was ok with the same thing so i tend to think its just out of whack and im staying hopeful i will one day tolerate these things:) thanks alot for all your help keep...
