  1. While I'm sorry your daughter has Celiac, I am thankful that a doctor knows what life is like on this side of the stethescope. Thank you for being proactive with people.
  2. I agree I giggled when I saw the smiley's LOL
  3. I just read the attachment about the vaccine. Not sure that I would participate if it becomes available. They don't know the long term affects and maybe the vaccine is merely taking the 'pain' out of the equation and the damage is still being done. It would take many years of study including long term affects for me to buy into it. I was sick for...

    A+ Reddish Brown hair, Green eyes. Polish,German, Swedish, French, Indian (several tribes)... Apparently, my family never heard of borders!!! LOL
  5. I can't find it here in Wisconsin yet. Dang it... I keep looking but to no avail. I was going to order it online but besides the hefty price, the shipping charges are nuts!! I'll be patient I guess. Send me some Genius!!!
  6. We have what they are calling a Holiday 'Feast' at work tomorrow. (Giant Potluck) I am not participating because I am afraid of CC. I've been feeling so good that I don't think it's worth the risk. When they approached me about what I was bringing, I kindly declined and explained that there wouldn't be much of anything I could eat so to make it easier...
  7. I had a salad with tons of different vegetables and parmesan peppercorn dressing and a dish of baked beans. Some little bitty clementine oranges for dessert!!
  8. I have the same thing, Confirmed Celiac AND other food allergies. Seafood is the worst. I never take for granted that it's gluten unless I know for absolutely sure. One never knows
  9. Arrowhead Mills "Rice and Shine" cereal (brown rice grits) with brown sugar and cashews for a bit of flare And of course my beloved coffee!!
  10. Cheers to you too!! Hope you are doing well...
  11. Hello all, I thought I'd chime in here. I've been gluten free 1 yr this week and despite a few setbacks over the last year with being 'glutened' by medication and restaurants, I can honestly say I am feeling better than I did when I was a 6 yr old little girl and had a tummy ache every day and diarrhea more that my mother would believe. (She was a nurse...
  12. Wow what an experience the last month has been. Started getting what felt like a cold in late August and just dealt with it no biggie. Labor Day weekend, had the worst bloody nose ever (out in public of course for added drama) and when I saw my ENT doctor on Tuesday after they asked how long I'd been stuffed up.. just a couple weeks I said. Well I had...
  13. I'm not trying to be glib here but buy a big purse!!! I take my own food everywhere now and I have a big purse. Security might check it but will they throw away your food? Don't know.
  14. I told my extended family (both sides) in November of last year. Multiple phone calls and now none of them on my fathers side like to talk to me because they are reminded of their 'head in the sand' attitudes about life. My mother and her family, my brother and kids all are supportive but none of them will get tested. All you can do is pass on the information...
  15. I use Penzey's and The Spice House (relatives of each other) and I have had no problems with any of them. I use a lot of spices in my cooking too. Good Luck!
  16. I have been gluten free almost a year and recently was given antibiotics that contained a weird starch. It was apparently a new name (new to me and my pharmacy) for a derived wheat starch. I have had stomach pain, the 'gurgling' again, excess gas, muscle and joint aches, and diarrhea since day 3 of taking the drug, mildly at first and then horrid. I...
  17. The beef 'flavoring' that McD's puts in the fries (because they can't fry in beef fat any longer) contains wheat starch. I don't eat there anymore because of it.
  18. Do you drink Diet Soda? I suffered from what was diagnosed as Fibromyalgia 4 years ago and when I got rid of the aspartame (Equal sweetener) from my diet, it went away. Diet soda, gums, any 'diet' food or drink can have it in.. My sleep issues were solved with that also!!
  19. My favorite 'spirit' is Woodchuck Cider.. it's made from apples and says gluten free on the label.. they even mention and explain celiac on their website. it's good stuff. I don't drink much but when I do.. this is my go to beverage!!
  20. It's official... I am no longer a mosquito magnet... who'da thunk. I was at an outdoor concert on Saturday and everyone including the band was complaining about getting eaten alive. I did not have one bite. I pulled a couple of them off of me but they weren't biting... hmmmm This is wonderful!! Hope it continues

    Lesson learned for the hubby!! Be careful!!!
  23. I'm beginning to think this is normal for Celiac and going gluten free. Others have mentioned it above and I recently read that 80% of people with Celiac that go gluten free gain weight.(Those that go gluten free because they want to don't have this problem so it's thought that it's a part of healing) I myself have gained about 10 lbs. My doctor says...
  24. Don't know where you are located but I have a business plan written for a gluten free restaurant... In California of course when I get to move there. Wanna be partners? LOL
