    Hmm...probably a bunch of Celiac rights and how we can help for them to come into play sooner. Things like stricter laws about labels listing allergens and if that manufacturing facility has gluten produce in it. But, people will always slide through the cracks But things have gotten a lot better. -Ash

    But, everyone, I've already said I've been to the doctor. I had an exam. No hem or fissures. I just don't know...I have an appointment this Thursday. I'll just let everyone know what's going on then.

    Felidae- I already have went to the doctor, stated in first post. In the exam, they found no hemmoroids, or fissures. I'm not really exeriencing any kind of itching. clover- doc told me to bump up the fiber too. I sure do hope this does us some good. Ursula (beautiful name by the way!) -I really hope I don't have any other intolerances. I do try to...

    They're bright red. Yes. Horrible pains, mostly through straining. Clover- Thanks, hope the appointment goes well.

    I feel like I'm going to explode...for almost a month, my stools have been covered in blood. At first, lightly, but now they're completely covered. Went to the doctor, had a nice little exam and got put on a powder lax to help soften the tools up. Suppose to go back in 2-3 weeks. If I had no blood, I take a specimen and that'll probably be the end of it...

    Yes, I would take Juillian's advice as well, I've never really had sudical thoughts, but, I've had extreme depression. Hopefully you'll find a doctor that actually is there for more than giving 'scripts. Let us know how things go!

    A bunch of burned C Ds my Uncle gave me (bunches of 70s and 80s music, he's wearin' off on me.) And a Fall Out Boy C D...can't think of much right now

    Normally, I take a Midol, drink a bottle of water, eat some cold, cool grapes and just try to do something calming. Have you ever taken anything for depression? I'm taking Zoloft (gluten-free, 'course) and helps me, and, if I forget to take it for a couple of days in a row, I begin to notice the depression kick back up, so, for me it works really well. ...

    In my worse case, which was yesterday, twenty-thirty-five minutes. Yesterday after lunch, I went to fourth block and about 25 minutes after lunch I got this terrible cramp in the mid-driff. It was very sharp and prolonging. Fatigue, constipation/diarrhea, and especially moody swings also come along. I realized cheating wasn't an option if I wanted to get...

    Aww, that's really heartbreaking to have to decide between feeding your child and your own health. Maybe something you can do can interrup this and you will able to eat with comfort and feed your baby. Keep us posted and I'll be praying for you and your child! Let us know on anything new and hopefully good -Ash

    The chili isn't gluten-free? Oops...glad I read this.

    My favorite was the Guacamole flavored doritos, unless I guess they discontinued them. Can't find them anymore. Guess that's an acquired taste =P So, now my favorite is the Cheddar & Sour Cream that Lays carries. -Ash

    1. how long have you had coeliac? A year this month! 2. At what age were you diagnosed? Fourteen 3. what foods do you miss out on? Pretzels. I loved pretzels. And poptarts XD 4. How much does it cost to stay gluten free? Depends how much you buy gluten-free foods specially made ( cookies, pastas, breaded meats, ect.) If you don't but these much (which...

    I am so glad you posted this! I've began to drink more water and I'm starting to feel more comfortable with the situps. Thanks -Ash

    I got placed on some antibiotics for swelling, mucus in the sinus (got circular flow in the left in frontal sinus, if it doesn't clear, more sinus surgery, yippee!!! ) So, the doctor highly recommended I went on probiotics for the time I take it. Went to the pharmacy, got the 'scripts filled and I asked, just to be safe, if the product was gluten-free and...

    Sarahm19- Your symptoms are very similar to what mine were. I, too, was really underweight (lost nearly eighty-pounds). Right, the anti-bodies attack the small intestine when gluten sticks to the villi (sp), wearing them down thus many nutrients are not absorbed. My feet were also swollen at times, but, I've had issues with my right foot being re-sprained...

    Kind of. My dreams are just plain-out strange, but, they're not nightmares. A lot of them I'll wake myself up laughing about the dream. I like dreams---they make sleep more interesting =P My all time favorite is the one where I went to a water park with my Mom, and two cartoon characters Zim and GIR (GIR is a little dancin' robot in a dog suit that was previously...

    After being Dxed with Celiac, it's like bloody murder to do sit ups. My stomach feels like it's going to burst, it is so tender. I dread my two days of PT at school and most of the time I just do two sets of fifty push ups instead of doing sit ups because I'm lucky if I can get twenty in most of the time within a minute. Does anyone have any advice to get...
  19. Ashley
    My Dad is one of these people (folks divorsed and I live with my Mom) . The fact that I lost nearly 80 pounds and being in a state of malnutrition didn't mean anything to him. This was some silly little disease. I am not sure if he thinks I'm making it up, but, I haven't been to over to his house since God knows when (sad, I know. ) However, everyone on...

    'Pose I'm gonna have to bump this up to get a reply. If it's better for anyone, just PM me instead.
  21. Ashley
    Mine's the opposite of everybody---mine are getting worse and worse. Ever since Celiac, my periods are much heavier and the pain is getting were I can't tolrate it very well at all. Until like the last two days (6-7), they're HEAVY. Except for those last two days, I'm miserable most of the time. If it's really bad, it's 8-9 days.

    I'm not really sure if it could be linked or not, I really don't know much about it. But, I was tested for Cystic Fibrosis last month, and it came back negatively.
  23. Ashley
    There can never be a post too long Time to stick up for your ownself here. Hurt someone's feelings over a trivial thing as to bring your own food or risk your health and your changes of getting pregnant? You're really going to ram it down their throats that this is serious. Sometimes you just have to flat out tell them if it doesn't get through. I mean...

    For me, it bothers my skin and scalp too much to use shampoo with gluten in it. I break out and get rashes. Plus, it wouldn't be good to get it in eyes.
  25. Ashley
    Rusla- Ouch! Take it easy there and get plently of sleep and rest. No, I haven't had any problems like that. No irration or burning whatsoever. I feel rough from being gluten and whatnot though. Anyway, take care and I hope you feel better =) -Ash
