  1. 1.Get tested for Celiac ,,blood and biopsys,,, BEFORE going gluten free. 2 ALWAYS,ALWAYS,ALWAYS not matter what kind of test Get copys of your test results and reports!! .
  2. Barley If your are eating gluten free I would pass on the barley. My link
  3. I think the allergy testing makes sense, but I would ask them about doing blood testing. Try to avoid the poke-you-all-over- AND- gluten-you kind . I saw an allergist in April . He did blood testing . Mine came back positive for eggs and almonds
  4. I would think it depends on your interpretation of Paleo. My personal interpretation is: Very simply, eat what our ancestors ate before the agricultural revolution.Basically,, Eat nuts, seeds, fruits and vegetables. And on occasion meat. But as a vegetarian of course the meat is out,,so consider adding legumes (if tolerated) Can it be done long...
  5. I like this VERY much elfbaby remember to someone that is celiac, food(how we eat)IS our only medication . If your were on a life saving drug and she kept it from you ,how would you react ?? Essentially when she messes with your food and your food consumption she is interfering with your life saving medication. I understand she is new to this...
  6. I dont think you are over reacting at all! How old is your sister??

    ARCHIVED Should I Get A 2Nd Opinion

    I would definitely get a second opinion .
  8. I am sorry that you feel the need to leave the forums Karl. The members of these forums are knowledgeable,intelligent ,kind ,excepting and extremely patient. I remember one of my first post was asking how could I get my adult son to become gluten free. The responses I got were patient,understanding and real. Not what I wanted to hear but the unbiased...
  9. I would suggest that you be super diligent at watching your calories consumed . I did an elimination diet the beginning of the year and dropped 20 pounds in 6 weeks. legumes are inexpensive and quick ( I buy the already cooked,canned ones but dried are even cheaper) and have a fairly high calorie count.
  10. Can you tolerate legumes ?? They are great source of vegetarian protein , carbs and a good source of calories. Open Original Shared Link
  11. Many of us have a long list of diseases , just look at some of the signatures. I was undiagnosed for 40+ years.I have more than a couple of disease diagnoses. I am living and loving life . Your "disease" did NOT take you out of the game of life. You did. Life is a choice Karl. Live,laugh ,love and treasure each moment.

  13. I recently started buying a candy that contains peppermint oil. I have noticed a difference in my stool.Not necessarily a bad difference just a difference. I thought I had read that peppermint oil had a calming effect on the stomach but dont remember reading about any effects on the intestines . This may be a weird question but,,Can peppermint oil be a...

  16. OMG this is actually a REAL song :lol: my apologys mushroom for ever doubting you Lyrics: A chicken farmer went walking out one dark and fateful day He rested by the coop as he went on along his way When all at once a rotten egg hit him in the eye It was the sight he dreaded Ghost chickens in the sky!

  17. I recently had a colonoscopy and my doc took 2 biopsys to check for colitis. She said colitis can be a complication of celiacs. Hope you are feeling better soon ((HUGS))
  18. Most important is finding drinking water and shelter
  19. As someone that has done an elimination diet ,I can testify to that

    ARCHIVED Grr...

    R ,I am so sorry ((HUGS)) I have also gotten to the place where I feel that talking to my family (except my daughters) is pointless. I REALLY get tired of them looking at me like I am crazy when I suggest they get tested.They have accepted that I have celiacs but they dont understand why they need to be tested They dont WANT to understand Your dad...
  22. ?? is single malt safe? I though it was made from barley??
  23. Really want BBQ Ribs and gluten free pasta salad . But since I ate something that did not agree with me( a different brand of rice crackers that usual ) I am sticking with my safest meal. Browned ground lamb, peas,cooked rice stir fried in some olive oil.
