    I hope so too! And I will keep an eye out for a good gluten-free beer too.

    More beer to try... Thanks for the help and sounds like your guy is lucky.

    Thanks for the suggestion; I will look for that beer and try it. Cheers!

    I live in Huntington, NY (Long Island). I am looking to move from here but just have not decided on where yet. I have never made any home-brewed beer. My plan for the day after tomorrow is not set in stone and open for changes. When you go to NJ...just remember to stay away from gluten laden pizza. Let me know if you need a pizza watchdog.

    That beer sits in my refrigerator as a reminder of my eating/drinking past. And I will not drink it. I will throw it out tonight. Damn you gluten!

    If any of you cooks need a grateful eater who can also cleanup afterwards... Well, I'm available!

    Hey Jersey Girl! I have tried Redbridge and do not find it refreshing and crisp. The beer I have always liked are Heineken, Corona, Coors, and Guinness. If I cannot find a gluten-free beer similar to say Heineken Lite then I will look for a partner and buy or start a small craft brewery and do it myself. Do you still live in NJ?

    Glad to hear your life is saved and I am glad to have found this site too. I am trying to take this head on, however, for the past few weeks I still have a 12-pack of Heineken in my refrigerator that I would rather drink than throw out. I like beer and that is one of the things I will miss. I know there are a few gluten-free beers but I have not found...

    ARCHIVED Panic Attacks

    RL2011 replied to jemms's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Don't read this if reading the rants of a 50 year old guy will piss you off... Oftentimes the road to healing of any part of the body inclusive of the intestinal villi is not always in a straight line of getting better. There are times when your body feels like it is having a setback when it is not. This can be from your body being a little more run...

    You and other gluten sufferers are not alone. Here is my stinking story. Ok I will leave out the gory bathroom details. Just read between thelines. I lived with episodes anywhere from 1 to 5 times a week of mild to severe gut pain and diarrhea for about 10 years; for years prior to that it was just a lot of gas and a big appetite. I hid my problems...

    Thanks for your words of encouragement. And for the idea of going to a local support group meeting. I will keep my eye out for those gluten-free tattoos. Rich

    Thanks for the feedback. Sticking to a gluten free diet for me will be a challenge. I have had some interesting digestive situations while traveling across country by motorcycle and hope that a proper diet will changethat. Wish I could find a gluten free girlfriend who liked to take motorcycle adventures everywhere and ski, snowmobile, hike,and...

    Here are my blood tests results. Does showing positive for Deamidated Gliadin Peptide Antibody, IgA (DGP IgA) with 9.7 EU/ml and negative for the other tests suggests I should schedule a biopsy? What does this mean given your experiences? I posted this comment yesterday on another discussion: I do not understand why abiopsy is needed when this individual...

    Thank you for your feedback. I will talk with my Dr about the merits of scheduling a biopsy and his recommendation.
  15. RL2011
    I do not understand why a biopsy is needed when this individual shows positive for celiac disease. I ask this because I have been suffering digestive issues for my entire life that are consistent with gluten intolerance. I also had a rash last year for 4 months that I now believe is/was dermatitis herpetiformis. A few weeks ago I was (blood) tested and...
