  1. When I first started this journey, roughly 11 yrs ago with symptoms, I had no clue. Eventually, having no luck with doctors (hypochondriac or psychosomatic), I googled my symptoms over and over looking for something... ANYTHING... that would give me a clue. Among other issues, my insides would not move, I was turning gray, felt like death, and had a persistent...

  3. I'm too busy snickering... okay, Bwhahaha, laughing my guts out. I need this.. Karen..... Feels good to laugh. Sorry, Karen I didn't recognize you all dressed up. I have to say, I live a boring life when I read back through here... but someone has to be the contrast, right?
  4. After feeling so bad for so many years (only about 7 which is nothing compared to some but...), I now feel so good. Cough gone, aches receding, energy back, gut beginning to heal. I guess feeling better (eventually) is a given. I am more responsible about what goes in my body, more aware of the amount of processed foods out there and what that means....
  5. If we could hear everything our bodies are saying to us... we would eat very differently.
  6. I've been constipated all my life too and since going gluten free I am 'moving' everyday, sometimes 2 times a day. Health folk often say we are supposed to have movements after every meal... if they are healthy BM. I feel so much better now that I am gluten free and this is part of the total healing - having healthy elimination. If a person suffers with...
  7. It's All About The Pentiums - Weird Al I LOVE those pups!!! Gotta go garden
  8. Hi you!!

    How you doing...feeling better?

  9. "The drug triggers the death of the cells that cause the damaging immune response,'' he said. ''By doing that you switch the immune reaction from a damaging one to a tolerant one.''" I also wonder what else this affects if cells which are a normal part of our immune response are killed. What else are these cells responsible for (long term)? Its like...
  10. Somebody with a sense of humor bred these..
  11. I was going to ask about the source of the vit E in the multi but I guess if they say gluten free... then that shouldn't be an issue.
  12. Just a note.. something I learned here. If Celiac is present then the villi may have been affected and the tips of the villi are where lactase is produced for the digestion of dairy (lactose). So lactose intolerance could be part of the issue.
  13. :lol: I'm off to a gluten-free potluck..!!
  14. That sounds like a dream. I should check bylaws here but I'm pretty sure I can't have chickens in small town Sask.. I'm guessing lots of people would and it would be a circus trying to keep things clean and neat. My family has farmland outside of town but with few trees and not much rain usually (and no well), it would be hard to have an acreage there...
  15. Mine is doing the same thing. Also I can't search just the forum...so I think something must be down 'for maintenance' or something... guessing...
  16. Darn...I was hoping it would be some place close to Maui. I'm probably next door. Comon Kareng! You've always wanted to come visit the home of the Mounties, moose and..the mighty beaver. If I lived on an acreage I would have chickens, a cow, some sheep... and dogs and cats. Also chinchillas but not for making coats or anything ...ssshhhhhh don...
  17. I have a lot of respect for people who have to deal with family when there is so much opposition or misunderstanding, and also with elderly family (bless their misdirected hearts). It takes a lot of patience and forgiveness (and some venting and pillow punching maybe...).
  18. I am posting the link to this awesome muffin recipe. I tried it last night for the first time and they are delicious! They have peaches and pecans in them...also gluten-free oats though.. Open Original Shared Link
  19. This would be worth the trip to make it happen!!!
  20. :lol: Your son would totally get along with my son...
  21. :lol: I love this place... healthy humor... Loey, laughter is very healing...that's why you hafta stay a psillie..
  22. Spring has sprung! Hey Irishheart back atcha! TOMORROW! That's our group,s big potluck. I am so glad I am able to enjoy this. I am going to be on my knees praying over that potluck! This is our first and I know that not everyone has the same level of concern about cc yet (and the finger would have been pointing back at me if I hadn't figured this out...
  23. Just a quick vent here... I have been feeling so dragged out lately and unmotivated. I know/knew it was the gluten but didn't know exactly what.. and didn't feel well enough to figure it out. Finally a few days ago I eliminated a couple of things(I hadn't realized contained soy) out of my diet and took some liquid iron which helped some. I have enough...
  24. Me too! You know, I read and read and read... cc, cc, cc,.. and think...yes, but I haven't had problems. But then... I have been feeling like crap too and thinking that I don't know why. DUH!!! Time to throw some stuff out.
  25. I react to anything with soy, soy lecithin... any soy. Chocolate usually has soy lecithin in it. If I eat more than a bite of chocolate I feel 'unwell'.
