    Well, I called my husband when I was diagnosed last week. He was at work and the conversation was limited to a minute. I mentioned it again that night and he poo-pood me and I shut up. I mentioned it again when we ate with friends last Friday and he stated he didn't think it was a problem and I shouldn't worry about it. A couple of days later I asked him...

    Thank you, IrishHeart for the information you sent. I am considering trying the gluten-free thing for a bit - but am worried about my husband accepting it. He is totally not on-board with my vegetarianism and I think he believes that a lot of people go gluten-free to be trendy and to demand extra attention at restaurants - which he hates. I told a co-worker...

    Sorry - I was away for a few days. I am overwhelmed by all of you that have taken your time to respond to my post with so many helpful thoughts. Thank you!!! I am going to respond to a bunch of different people all at once here: OMG - Pancakes! I make the best pancakes in the world. Not trying to boast, but I found the best recipe and use the best ingredients...

    I have a silly question brought to mind by the cat treat post - just being diagnosed and trying to learn about all of this...What about shampoo and conditioner products with wheat protein in them? Can they make a celiac sick? I know the lady said that she had a reaction to the hair spray, which I can understand with it being airborne - but what about things...

    You've given me some good info and some helpful info for organizing my thoughts. Yes, it is like a smoker making the decision to smoke despite the knowledge of long-term ill effects. And I guess I can try some baby steps to get closer to the goal and see how it goes. That's not quite as scary. Part of my apprehension is that my husband is already not very...

    My husband is pretty much all-american steak-and-potatoes, with an occasional trip to an Italian or Mexican restaurant. Indian or Thai is out - he also has a sensitive stomach. Can I have things made with corn tortillas at a Mexican restaurant? It will be really hard if I'm hungry when I get to the restaurant and everyone else is eating bread (which I love...

    My husband likes to eat out, a lot. It would be almost impossible to resist bread when everyone else at the table is eating it - and it's my favorite thing on the menu. Also I'm guessing it would be very hard to eat vegetarian and gluten-free in a restaurant. I could have salad, potato and a vegetable. In the past I would usually have a pasta or a grilled...

    Well, I don't have any symptoms that I know of from the celiac - but it's another diagnosis on a long list of ailments - some of which are listed as being related. Hashimoto's thyroid disease, fibromyalgia, lots of female problems, multiple miscarriages & much more. When your doctor says - you can never eat a speck of these foods ever again - am I...

    So, forgive me - I'm new to this forum stuff - does the listing under your name apply to things that you are going through? When you say you are gluten free as of 3/28/11 - does that mean you were just diagnosed as well?

    I just got diagnosed a couple of days ago. I was having some vomiting and my husband insisted I go to the doctor. They did an endoscopy and bloodwork. I haven't vomited for over 2 months now and my stomach has been fine. Then I get this call from my doctor and my whole life is supposed to change. If eating one crouton is just as bad as eating whatever I want...
