    Totally agree!!!

    It's not really as frightening as it sounds...I teach students with autism and my take on it is that they are finally giving students the correct diagnosis (sounds like many people with ceilac!). Many, many people were diagnosed with ADD or ADHD and/or OCD that sound have been autism. Doctors are now realizing that this. I feel like there is a greater awareness...

    My withdrawals to gluten were 10x worse than my caffeine addition...both I stopped cold turkey! Yeah they are bad but they will get better.
  4. krystynycole
    A food log with symptoms (no matter what time they appear!) is an excellent idea. I have caffeine and msg intolerances and found out this way. If that doesn't do anything, then you can consider an allergy test from the doctor for other foods. Also, think about how this is helping you heal. If you are just dealing with it and keep eating things that are...

    I get this same reaction when I eat gluten...breaking out, itching on my stomach, dry skin, and increased psoriasis. However, I do not have DH. From what I've read, you typically do not have DH AND psoriasis, but it is possible none the less. I could just be your body's reaction to eating gluten.

    As you heal, new symptoms can show that you did not know or feel before because of all the complications of the gluten. Its not uncommon for this to effect people later.

    Another one I love is Wildfire...more expensive, but GREAT! They make you FRESH gluten free biscuts and will bring you as many as you want They had a gluten free event a while back to high light their gluten free menu.

    Have you checked into other food allerigies/interolances? Some people on gluten free can't handle rice...what about corn? many fruits are covered in a substance containing corn for peticides...what about lactos?
  9. krystynycole
    Like Skylark, I also stick to things like rice and broth for a few days day and increase my water intake. Also, I have a gluten enzyme from the health food store. It works just like the lactose pills do, but on gluten. It basically helps break it down the gluten. While I still have all the nasty symptoms, it seems to help the gluten run it's course quicker...

    I go to this on in the suburbs and it is fabulous! I can't speak of the downtown locations, but in the suburbs, they can turn most of their dishes into gluten free upon request and I've never had cc issues. Open Original Shared Link

    Peter you read my mind! I was thinking the same thing while reading the post. I have never seen gluten free cornflakes or crumbs that was not made specially for gluten free. Gluten has many, may hidden names because of all the derivatives/forms it can take on.

    I'm one of them super sensitives and that's the kind I eat because I hate the texture of corn pasta. I have no issues with Tinkyada pasta.

    I was carb addicted and wanted to eat anything and everything when I went gluten free. While I will still admit that I miss it, lessens over time and you get used to it because you feel better. I used to fill up on bread and not eat much of my entree when I went out to eat. It's like weening yourself off of anything you are addicted to like people who stop...

    I know we eat healthier so my husband feels better because he's not eating as much crap as before and now more natural foods without all that processing. He really only eats it when we got out which isn't often at all.

    I will have to look at a health food or vitatim store for the D3 by Vitafusion. I buy that brand for Calcium and Multivitamin and they are wonders for my terrible tummy but have never seen the D3 where I shop, but that's only at Target/Walmart. Thanks!
  16. krystynycole
    Hi all. So I recently have run into several people who have out of no where told me about vitamin D3 helping with auto immune disorders and also healing guts--something I feel I'm struggling with. Also I read that people with celiac can below on magnesium causing leg spasms. This is the only thing about my health not improving. I assumed it was just a weird...

    Unfortunately it's true. This is why I consider myself non-confirmed celiac because I didn't know this until a month later and didn't care to go back on gluten and all the baggage for just a label. But that's my personal feeling in my situation. Some people psychologically need the confirmation and there is nothing wrong with that. Others may need it for...

    Welcome fellow Chicagoan! (If that's what we are called???) Glad to hear things are going good so far.

    Blood tests are not always 100% so you may consider a biopsy. However, if you do this do not go off gluten. You must have it in your system to have a accurate result. You blood test could be low and/or show a false negative if you were previously avoiding some forms of wheat because of the eczema. I tested negative but consider myself gluten intolerant because...

    I haven't been able to loose what I gained before I was diagnosed but in great pain. I still have not been able to loose it and am overweight, but I also have pain exercising in cardio. I just bought some weights this week hoping to see if I can do it without pain.
  21. krystynycole
    It's very possible you have celiac. You may also just be gluten intolerant. I teach students with autism and have a nephew with autism. Over the years I have seen many people with autism feel MUCH, MUCH better going off gluten even if they aren't celiac. If your tests are negative, it might be worth a shot to go off and see if it helps. Doctor's really can...

    Hi there. I saw that you visited me. I hope you figure out what is going on with your health!

    dilettantesteph--I was previously thinking I may be super sensitive. Maybe this is the tip that's showing me. Thanks for assuring me I'm not alone though...sometimes I feel my adventures are odd in this gluten free venture! deinanthe--interesting, I've never thought of that, however I'm working out at home. *sign* another thing to worry about in public...

    Hi all! So I finally got the courage up to exercise again after a long time of not because of pain. I haven't exercised like I should in a long time because it took me five years to be diagnosed and I'm now a year and two months into recovery. However, I tried to start exercising again a few weeks ago and my first week I did 4 times of fast, but not power...

    Interesting...I did not care for the cookies, but loved the cake! I totally agree with Sylvia. Check out those sites! My mom makes things from the Cake Mix Doctor gluten-free all the time for me and keeps some of it for her because she thinks they taste so good! If your into baking, she gives a ton of tips on how to make gluten-free cakes and other baked...
