    well, they sure look interesting..... tell us how they come out. hey... if they come out looking great are they called "perfecties"?? YO ADDY! I just bubble wrapped and duck- taped to death a package for you. It's something I know you can use and it will make you smile. I'll send it out tomorrow. I'm pretty sure part of my finger may...

    K too hot? got a heat wave in Kansas? your dinner sounds great to me. ok, what the devil is "oopsies?' do tell (sounds like something we might have said in the old days if we had a sudden bout of D in the pants--as in omg! whatthe...arrgh.., oopsies!) Addy I know you are bored. Hang in there and I hope you feel better soon xx Marilyn...

    Diana, Lovely entry... and it sums up what my friend calls "finding the silver lining " in the cloud. Glad you are feeling better. Best wishes always, IH

    I also eat mushrooms often and have never had a problem and I often just wipe them well with a damp cloth. I have a veggie brush, too. My chef friend peels the cap when she makes stuffed 'shrooms, but I see no need for that and we have spirited "amateur vs. pro chef disputes" -all in good fun. of course.. and of course, no one can tell whose shrooms...

    Hon, just to be clear, when I said, "point out the obvious" I was not being facetious, BTW, I was just using the expression. I hope you did not think me being "a wise guy" there. lol Here's why: I hesitate to tell people "only serve gluten-free foods to visitors"(because that may not be necessary for some folks) but when it comes to kiddos, I would...

    I would not think "candida" just because of bloating, especially if you do not have a visible yeast infection. Do you take probiotics? Could help with the bloating and the abdominal distress....just a thought! I hope you feel better soon! (I tend to bloat from eating too many high histamine foods, but that is just my "lucky" list of food intolerances...

    I read the reports when they came out and I have not really drastically reduced my rice consumption (which is maybe about a cup a week, total) as a result because: " While the levels varied depending on products tested, FDA scientists determined that levels are too low to cause any immediate or short-term adverse health effects. The FDA’s next step i...

    But, DH lesions can be active for two years after DX because of inflammation and not necessarily because you are "getting hit".

    Are you saying THIS is the actual picture of the bales of hay he saw at Walmart? That he took this picture?....because this picture is from wikipedia, hon.

    Maybe try asking the question in the Parents of celiac Kids section?...those Moms (and Dads) have some great ideas! I use McCormick spices w/out issues, if that helps.
  16. IrishHeart
    ImaMariam Just a thought, but the stomach ache after taking the probiotics is less likely to be the cinnamon (plain spices are not usually CCed, unless you bought it from an open bulk bin?) than her reaction to the probiotic itself. They can cause a bit of turbulence sometimes.Stir the probiotics into something else (juice, yogurt, pudding?) and see...

    The oranges will cause you mega- HEARTBURN. He's not exactly right about the supplements., There are many that are G F. I use Country Life--certified G F NOW brand--no gluten. Just google it. and now, I am yelling at you for being out bed...GET BACK TO BED BEFORE YOU GET ANOTHER HEADACHE, SILLY PANTS! You just had a major peocedure done (yes, I...

    I do not mean to sound "know it all-ish" ok. that's not a word, I know... .but I am pretty sure we told you this for the last few weeks? and you agreed.. Every single thing he said....we already said to you. Just confirms to me that sometimes, fellow celiacs really do more than the docs. This doctor seems to "get it" though, hon..!! yaay!!.. so please...

    That's our world, I'm afraid ....a gluten-filled landmine. Guys, Kareng tells me she has a bright, colorful beer cozy thinger she puts on her G F beer so she does not sip her hub's beer by mistake. (hmm...not sure what to do about the glasses in a pub, except maybe never, ever put it down?) Maybe you guys can get some of those cozies (I see...

    The link between celiac, gluten and neurological symptoms is well established (and stress can certainly exacerbate and even trigger celiac in pre-disposed individuals. I had a dozen or so nuero symptoms (in my list of about 65 symptoms) because of long, unDxed celiac and I can attest to all of the sensations, pain, parasthesia, and the ataxia, crippling...

    First of all, your Mom needs to be tested for celiac disease. If the tests are negative, she can still go gluten free. The symptoms you are describing sound like gluten intolerance of some degree. Secondly, you do not have to spend a lot of money to go G F. There are many meal suggestions that do not require extra planning, ingredients or spending...

    Nate, The gastroenterlogist should do an endoscopy to find out why. Something is not right, hon. IMHO

    As I said to my cousins last month when I saw them for the first time in 5 years (they saw me when I looked like a walking celiac zombie) "Look Guys, I'm not dead!" whoohoo! I was going to answer you with the medical definitions of the distinction between wheat allergy, gluten ntolerance and celiac, but I see Arlene has provided a rendition that will...
