Hello Raven... It was suggested to me to get off gluten by my doctor who is working with me for BHRT's. However, my therapist (shrink) said he suspected I was sensitive and suggested a year ago that I do the self-elimination testing. Didn't do it until the other doc flat out told me to get off gluten. Though it was a self-elimination workup, therapist...

Thank you and to you too.

The doc I'm seeing for BHRT wants me off sugar . She was the one who suggested I do an elimination diet to see if I was gluten sensitive (I am). Is it doable? Just learning to live gluten free, now this. Anyone have anything similar going on in their lives and how do you cook & bake without sugar? Not that I use that much, but needing to know...

Checked out the site. Thanks so much. Many questions answered and I'm sure it will make life simpler.

Thanks for the ideas and suggestions.

In the old days, :~)when I could use self-rising flour I made drop biscuits using self-rising flour, canola oil and milk and had the best biscuits with sausage gravy. Now, all I can find are recipes using crisco/marg/butter. I'm lazy. Would anyone have a recipe similar to the one I used to use. Thanks bunches.

Alrighty...was here a couple of months ago asking questions. Since then, I've learned a lot. Wow. What an experience. Swore I didn't want to have to learn to cook again at 59, but I'm doing it. And learning to live gluten free. Sheesh. Went gluten free for 6 weeks then splurged at great nephew's graduation party. Had a brownie and a couple of cookies...

I hate a Hershey's Special bar the other day and no problems.

Thanks to everyone for taking the time to answer my questions. I'm sure this is going to be a learning process. I don't know the reason the doctor told me to go gluten free, but she said she could just look at me and see hormone imbalances (eventhough she had the saliva results which indicated I was a mess hormonally). I'm going to do the designated...

My doctor who is working with me regarding bio-identical hormone therapy recommended I go gluten-free. My therapist (has celiacs) made the same suggestion several months ago. I hesitated because my husband has no problem with his belly and issues involving gluten. I can't force him to go gluten free. He has a basket of his own physical issues that keep...
