  1. My husband just found some gluten-free foods made by Namaste Foods. Has anyone ever heard of them, if so did you like them? He bought the pizza mix and brownie mix. He really bought a lot, wish he would get just one to try. According to the package it is free of gluten, wheat, potato, soy, corn, dairy, and casein. Also says sugar-free pizza mix. He also...
  2. Mariann, Are you able to use coconut milk? I have some but afraid to use it, I seem to react to all dairy, even soy and rice milk.
  3. Dear Barbara, I was thinking just like you until the word "milk chocolate" jumped out at me. I'm not sure about dark chocolate.
  4. I use Garnier Fructis(sp?), it is gluten free. I used to use Nexxus and my head was always itchy. After I looked at the list of ingredients and found it contained wheat! Natalie, I'm sorry to disagree with you, I do not have a definite diagnosis of Celiac, but I can't tolerate gluten in any form. I don't want to be disrespecful of your doctor...
  5. Natalieb, I've always had a problem with my eyes, redness, pain, sensitivity to sunlight, etc. I have suspected sjogren's but I never followed up on it. Would you mind telling me what kind of Dr. you went to and what tests he performed? I would like to get this resolved, they have improved on a gluten-free diet but problems have not gone away completely...
  6. Vany4, Are you sure Darvocet is gluten-free? I have been avoiding it because one list said it was not gluten-free.
  7. I am mostly German, my ancestors are listed as pioneers who settled Pennsylvania. When asked about our ancestry in grade school my grandmother said tell them "Pennsylvania Dutch" which was not Dutch but German. When doing our family tree for my kids, I did learn of an irish/english great grandmother which explained a lot.
  8. Hi everyone, My symptoms started following a simple thyroidectomy that went bad. I was in ICU for 4 days. I won't go into detail but after that I started to have symptoms.
  9. The stool test for oand p is for ova and parasites, it is common to do these especially if you are having diarrhea.
  10. I would suggest showing them articles about the girl who couldn't take communion because the Catholic Church wouldn't let her use a rice wafer. This stirred up a lot of controversy and more people became aware of the disease because of it. Some stories explained about how even a crumb of wheat could cause severe damage and the little girl said "I could...
  11. Dear CoolCat, I don't know anything about Canada for which I'm sorry, but do you have anything like Social Security Disability for which you could apply? I know it is hard to get in the USA, although some people seem to get it. The fact that you are under so much stress and you have a cooperative physician might help. Is there anyway that they could...
  12. Brenda and Dessa and all others who are concerned: There are 2 web sites that I have found which answered some of my questions www.diabetic.com Open Original Shared Link
  13. Dessa, I have recently been diagnosed with "D" and am trying to learn everything I can. I was curious about your high insulin levels, how did you find this out? I can suggest a way to lose weight that is working for me. If you are having a meal with meat and vegetables, don't eat any rice or potatoes. If you "must" have rice or potatoes then eat them...
  14. CoolCat. Were you diagnosed with celiac disease? If you have a definite diagnosis then I think your workplace would have to accomadate you, there is something about that in the American Disabilities Act about that. Can someone help me out here?
  15. Suzanne, I may be wrong but I think tropical sprue develops if you live in the tropics, Im not sure of the etiology (origin), maybe parasites. I really don't think it is the same as Celiac or non-tropical Sprue. I'm sure someone on this board knows the answer.
