Oh yeah. When I was on gluten I was a very unpleasant and volatile person.

ARCHIVED Getting Fed Up And Tired Of It.
ianm replied to conniebky's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I've had some problems with the supposedly gluten free Chex cereals myself and don't eat them anymore. -
ARCHIVED What Companies/products Do You Absolutely Trust?
ianm replied to DaffodElle's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have always had good luck with Kroger brand food. -
I know the feeling. It's a miracle I never killed anyone while driving back when I was eating gluten.

ARCHIVED Anyone Here Done The Atkins Diet?
ianm replied to Black Sheep's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Worked great for me and is how I discovered I have celiac. -
Fortunately I seem to be immune to poison ivy but for my brother all you have to do is say the words and he breaks out really bad. Funny how the immune system works.

ARCHIVED Anyone Unemployed Or Divorced Because Of Celiac?
ianm replied to mrmachinist's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Lycopene, she did you a favor. The wife leaving me turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me. -
ARCHIVED Bob's Red Mill Red Lentils
ianm replied to foodiegurl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Every brand of lentils I have ever bought has had wheat grains in them. I make sure to check them thoroughly and have never had a problem with lentils. -
I went through a zillion doctors before I figured out was wrong with no help from them. My current doctor says that I know far more about Celiac than she does. She says that if certain foods make me sick don't eat them. If your diet works for you then stick with it.

ARCHIVED Is It Weird That I Think I Only Want To Date Gluten-Free Men?
ianm replied to detritus's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Cool! I just renewed my passport so Down Under here I come! -
ARCHIVED Have A Date But Also Have A Problem
ianm replied to jasonD2's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Go out to dinner to a place that serves food that is naturally gluten free. Talk about the celiac but leave out the gross details. It will give you something to talk about and chicks dig that kind of thing as long as it doesn't get gross. -
ARCHIVED Anybody Out There A Morbidly Obese Celiac?
ianm replied to ts1986's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I used to be morbidly obese and am now half the man, literally, that I used to be. Gluten free and low carb works for me but you mileage may vary. It can be done. -
ARCHIVED From Carelessness To Paranoia?
ianm replied to rdunbar's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
A little paranoia in the beginning helps to keep you out of trouble. Once you get some knowledge and experience with the gluten-free lifestyle you will find it is not all that difficult. -
As bad as my brain fog was I would have to say that when we quit eating gluten our IQ does indeed rise exponentially.
