    I was a lazy panda , I made my favourite easy corned beef hash with cherry tomatos and a crunchy waldorf salad but with pecans because I had no walnuts, and a lovely ripe mango to follow, I also made some cinder toffee to sprinkle over my mango, I think I used too much bicarbonate of soda "gluten free" as it kind of tripled in size and then exploded...

    Squirming itch, thank you for your reply and welcoming me to the board it made me feel so much better knowing that I am not on my own about the gluten challenge , and while I think others who choose to go give it a go must be very brave , just the thought of it makes me shiver and yes you are right , I notice that I am much more sensitive to gluten...

    Hi itchyAbby and squirmingitch , I love the names you chose speaks volumes , I wasn't going to post a reply because I am sipping a lovely glass of chilled wine , which is a pretty rare occurrence as I never thought it would ever happen , I couldn't eat or drink hardly anything at all without having awful symptoms which lasted so many years and...

    Still getting intense itchy rash a year after gluten free , can anyone tell me please, would it be pointless asking for a biopsy after being gluten free ? It's so frustrating as I told the Gastro docs about this incredibly itchy rash which I scratch until I bleed but no one suggested a biopsy , I really do appreciate any help members give...

    Hi orange, I was lactose intolerant too for many years, but after a year on the Gluten free diet I have now been able to introduce dairy again I find I am ok with Greek yoghurt, but if I have milk and other dairy products I also get lots of joint pains like you do including restless legs, and for some strange reason a very painful tail bone along...

    Thank you for all your replies , I just thought I would update , I spoke in detail to a qualified Nurse in Celiac UK and they advised that I ask my Gastro doctor for a Celiac diagnosis on the grounds of a positive gene test and all the matching Celiac symptoms So in May this year as I had an appointment with my Gastro doctor so I took along my...

    Hi Jhol I used to be a vegetarian too but when I was in hospital the food was so limited I decided to eat all the meat I could to try and get better , I felt really guilty but I needed to build myself up , I still eat meat and I eat the crispy fat too as I don't eat dairy either, Chicken sounds a really good way to start or fish if you like it ,...

    Hi yes I agree totally , any type of gluten intolerance can make you very poorly indeed , I don't think I could even attempt a gluten challenge, wow I think you we're very brave to go three weeks , it must have been really horrible for you if I accidentally eat any gluten within an hour or so I go icy cold then start dry heaving I also feel faint and...

    Hi thank you for your advice it is much appreciated , I did tell my hospital doctor that my own GP thinks its Celiac , and my own GP said I needed a biopsy right from the start as he has seen me battle with this illness Also my own GP said after fifteen years of eating gluten if its Celiac any damage will be there to see I will mention this again to...

    I also have difficulties taking iron , I take two sachets a day of spatone www.Spatone from boots pharmacy , I am in the UK but It sounds just like the one PRG takes from Germany and I too find these type of supplements very kind and gentle on the tummy, they are supposed to get absorbed very easily , even when my tummy was at its worst I had no problems...
