  1. That's not really the best option for me because my calendar already has so many appointments and reminders. I hate to have to weed through things later.
  2. I'd like to start tracking my food and symptoms on a daily basis. Does anyone have experience with any worthwhile applications that will work on a Blackberry?
  3. Will testing for that be an issue with us being Gluten-free Casein-free for a month?
  4. No, none of us have ever been tested for total IgA.
  5. I am both gluten-free and CF as well and had a great experience there. The chef will come out and discuss your preferences and will whip something up. I had a chicken piccata with pasta covered in a garlic marinara. It was really good and I was impressed with the process.
  6. The honey mustard has been fine for me usually. I know Outback honey mustard and ranch are both gluten-free and CF.
  7. Skylark, thanks so much for all of the info. I've been reading a few journal articles that do show significance at times, so I will just carry on with elimination and maybe reintroduce in six months depending on how I feel. Does it mean anything that the IgG levels were normal after elimination for several months and high again once foods were reintroduced...
  8. I asked him to order the tests because all four of my children have had IgG food sensitivities, all of which show again now. Can't really dispute a charge for something I requested. With children's reactions being behavioral and occasional eczema, it's hard to know if they are truly sensitive or not. They are too small to vocalize any neurological issues...
  9. Thank you. Did you have only IgG positives yourself, or other positive tests? I'm frustrated reading from my insurance company today that IgG tests mean nothing, along with a bill. I am hoping my mind isn't just creating a temporary placebo effect.
  10. After having gluten, wheat, and casein IgG tests show positive, Aetna is denying coverage. Evidently they believe all IgG tests are meaningless and "clinically irrelevant." I swear I feel mentally better after the diet change. Our pediatrician especially orders these on a routine basis. Is the clinical irrelevance really true, under debate, or another...
  11. I thought I saw a list of articles Dr. Fine had written in medical journals. Are those just not focused on his methods and that's the major concern?
  12. I'm thinking I'm going to do Enterolab testing to see if I have any IgA positives and to see if I have genetic propensity for sensitivity vs. celiac. It would explain so many symptoms I've had for years if gluten is the culprit. If not, it's all still a wait and watch mystery, where the rheumatologist continues to test me every few months sometimes getting...
  13. My children were all tested because of diaper rashes as infants and toddlers that only went away when they potty trained (they are all 4 and under). They were retested after a year or more of elimination, so naturally, all tested in the normal range since we eliminated the offenders. I was told to expect that they were permanently gone. One of my ...
  14. A couple of weeks ago, I got the results of testing back that I requested from the doctor. They can't interpret the results at all and are largely unfamiliar with the tests. I duplicated what our pediatrician has ordered for our children, who have all come back with similar results. Essentially, I show positive IGG results in gliadin antibodies, wheat...
