ARCHIVED Hello--New & Scared
shadowicewolf replied to Michlootz's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Its not as bad as it sounds. Really. I'm getting close to two years in, and it has become normal for me. First off, gluten free foods are expensive. No doubt. It is best to do a whole foods diet (nothing processed!) for the first few months. But, if you just have to have something, a substitute can be found in the gluten free goodies. I don't bake a... -
ARCHIVED Walmart And Gluten Free Section
shadowicewolf replied to HeazerHacker's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Indeed! I do not do much shopping in the 'middle' isles. I may go down them to find a spacific thing (peanut butter i'ma lookin' at you), but elsewise i steer clear. For example, the one store i normally go to has a gluten free section, but they also put 'organic' things at the bottom row.... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Fairy Is Watching Over Me
shadowicewolf replied to nvsmom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Regarding the worchestershire sauce, I believe the lee and peppers brand is gluten free. -
ARCHIVED Where Can I Find Gluten Free Rice Krispies?
shadowicewolf replied to GFreeMO's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've seen them in walmart before, but again they were with the other cereals. Also, this was one of those really big walmarts (the biger supers) too. -
ARCHIVED Ummmm...is This Normal For Starting Out Gluten Free?
shadowicewolf replied to shellybean's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Just like any other addictive substance, gluten is just as addicting. It took me a good month and then some to get over that.- 14 replies

ARCHIVED Walmart And Gluten Free Section
shadowicewolf replied to HeazerHacker's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm greatful they have a section. Most stores mix products, its just a fact of life. I'm just greatful they have them. -
ARCHIVED Help, Again. Please
shadowicewolf replied to DavinaRN's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Sounds to me like you had a possible reaction to the medication on top of a glutening. You can take something one day and be utterly fine with it and the next time you take it, it'll bite ya (i speak from experience). I mention this because its a bit too long of the time between the possible glutening and the time you were in the E.R. Generally, if ya have... -
ARCHIVED Please Help, Celiac Symptoms Plus Other Autoimmune Disease?
shadowicewolf replied to serine's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Some of those sound like classic UTI infections (burning, dark coloring, frequency). I can't remember how many doctors it took for them to figure out my gallbladder problem. Just keep with it, you'll find one that can help ya, i'm sure.- 3 replies

Sweet potatos aren't in the catagory, thankfully. I had to give up tomatos because i'm allergic to them and anything spicy due to GERD. Its hard sometimes (i soooo miss tomato sauce), but not to bad. I'm nightshade light due to my allergy and generally only eat potatos on occasion. Rice flour I have found is quite a good substitute. Corn tortillas...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free And Sour Cream
shadowicewolf replied to woodsey115's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Why would sour cream have it? It would be listed if it does. The only dairy i know of that isn't is cheese made with beer. Basics should be fine.- 3 replies

ARCHIVED Pork Tenderloin & Pot Roast - Are Meats Gluten-Free?
shadowicewolf replied to CaliSparrow's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Normally they inject a salt solution to keep the meat looking fresh no gluten in it, but my stomach doesn't like it. -
ARCHIVED Gluten-Free Salmon
shadowicewolf replied to Wheresthebeef's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
If it has wheat in it, it must be listed. It should say if it includes it. Just like any other meat. Obviously, breaded items are out. I believe whole foods has organic salmon if that is of any help. -
ARCHIVED Kids' Test Results
shadowicewolf replied to Ang724's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Indeed. The body produces, to my understanding, a certain amount of antibodies and whatnot (believe it or not, this also includes cancer cells in their 'dorment' form or so i've heard). It is when you start producing more than normal (or less for that matter) that it becomes concerning -
ARCHIVED Kids' Test Results
shadowicewolf replied to Ang724's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
1-19 is normal for someone (if i've got the scale right), 20-30 is considered a low positive, and anything above 31 a high positive. It is normal for a body to produce a low amount of antibodies to my understanding. -
Never did here.

ARCHIVED Dealing With Accidental Gluten Ingestion

There is no cure all outside of drinking lots and lots of water and bedrest. -
ARCHIVED Needing Help With A Rotation Diet
shadowicewolf replied to leo.the.bunny's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
i'm on a sort of rotation diet. I cannot do, for example, sweet potatos more than two times a week without issues. Likewise with pasta (corn and quinoa), though i've fine daily for corn. Your body needs to have some sort balance and rotation. To much of anything is bad. -
ARCHIVED Co-Worker Cluelessness
shadowicewolf replied to MJ-S's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
It is the thought that counts. I'd too regift them. When i was younger, for my teacher, i would get a nice planter or a plant for them. A lot of my classmates would go the coffee mug/candy route, but they really liked this one. I don't normally do food. I do things that i know they'll use, such as a new set of nice pens that they normally wouldn't get... -

ARCHIVED +Igg, But -Iga?! Help!
shadowicewolf replied to kerid's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
In terms of genetics, it really doesn't matter as long as you have the genes you have the chance of getting it. Granted i've heard that those with two copies of a gene have more severe reactions. Low IGA can throw off the testing. At this point in time, in terms of what you probably have with gluten, is either Celiac or NCGI. Both are similar to one... -
