    I have been gluten free since last year. One of my daughters is gluten free and the other is working toward it. They are starting to see the difference being gluten free makes. My daughter that is gluten free and I both were tested for celiacs (blood test) and both of us were negative for celiacs. I have all the , what i would consider, classic signs of...

    how accurate is the blood test for young children?? ,,,,my granddaughters are 4 and 6

    thanks I will try it,,,I have been eating a protein with the starch ( something that was recommended to me because my blood sugar runs low) so that may be what is going on when it is bothersome.. I feel like I have no idea how to feed my body, every thing i have ever been told before learning about celiacs was just WRONG

    would this be why sometimes i can eat rice and sometimes i can't???

    As you said it is a very individual thing,,, For me I am currently eating sweet potatoes, all types of berries ,coconut oil in my cooking and what meats I can tolerate. Sounds like a very limited diet but these thing I know I can eat and feel well. As my gut begins to heal ,I will try to reintroduce different foods but for now I am happy to feel well

    I had a rash that looked EXACTLY like that on both my forearms the weekend before i got married ,,I was 17 at the time ......I was not diagnosed with celiacs until i was 53

    I was hoping that with the Soy ,Corn and Nightshades completely out of my diet that Rice would not be an problem ...I agree it was probably to soon

    Has anyone reintroduced corn and / or rice successfully?? I have been totally grain free for about 7 weeks . This past weekend I was not feeling well ( JUST the flu ) and I wanted some rice ,,,so I had some not good . Maybe I didnt wait long enough,, I know and except that I will never be able to eat gluten/wheat/soy again And I am totally...

    I voted neutral because even though I felt better at 6 months ,, it was not until about 9 months in that i realized that I was having issues with Soy (even though I did not eat soy per-say just that little in processed foods was to much )Oats ,Corn and Nightshades.I had some gallbladder issues that complicated things. Even now at a year + I am weeding out...

    These guys give the BEST advice The first suggestion I would make is:: Sit down and take a very deep breath and know that although the road may be very bumpy you are not alone ,,much love and many hugs

    Have you had your thyroid checked lately ??

    This is also true for me, Gluten free cooking is easy, once you clear all the things with gluten in them from your kitchen . Gluten free cooking is time consuming,cooking from scratch is more time consuming than using pre-packaged foods. The hardest part of going gluten free was the loss of convenience ,,, but now I pre -plan my meals and cook...

    Thanks everyone, your responses have been very helpful. I have been looking into the SCD and FODMAPS diets and have found a few permitted foods that both diets have in common , so that feels like a good starting point for me . I am also trying to go organic with what I can. T.H. ,,,I had not considered sulfite sensitivity as a possibility...

    Have you considered you may be having gall bladder issues??,,,worth checking out.

    When I was eating vegan ,I was eating a lot of soy. Soy I now know is as big of a problem (maybe bigger) for me as gluten,,just saying. Sorry, I dont have any helpful suggestions,,hopefully others will have some good suggestions. I will say; hang in there, and we are here if you need to vent

    Katie, I was lactose free for about 10 years before going gluten free.About 6 months into eating gluten free ,dairy was added back into my diet and doesn't seem to be a problem .. I really dont care for meat so my choices are getting smaller and smaller . I eat quite a bit of fruit,some dairy,what meat i can tolerate ,sweet potatoes seem to be ok , occasionally...

    I am more than a bit overwhelmed . I have been gluten/wheat free for over a year. I have been almost soy free for quite awhile and just recently went totally soy free,(no salad dressings ,canned tuna ect) Then I went totally grain free,corn, EVERYTHING grain, then next to go was potatoes then peppers. And I think I have handled that pretty...

    very well said

    I also had to ,just had to ,click on the mystery to medical science button after 40 some years of illness I was tested only because my daughter tested positive for celiacs ,,,even a year or so after my diagnoses I still feel like a MYSTERY TO MEDICAL SCIENCE
  25. cahill
    I so agree with this. I was fortunate to even receive my diagnose. My youngest daughters symptoms were mostly neurological.After three years of tests,including a spinal tap for MS, many MRI's ,many Cat-scans and misdiagnoses ,,my daughter INSISTED her doctor send her to a specialist. Personally, I think he sent her just to shut her up and get her out...
