  1. A few years to late, but Real Foods Market and Deli. They have a buffet that has gluten free dishes. They always have a gluten free pizza too, but often with unconventional toppings.
  2. None of my local stores carried them, so I printed out the form on their website and got one of my local stores to carry them.
  3. After two years of craving eggrolls, I finaly found some. Feel Good Foods has awesome eggrolls. I have been unable to make decent eggroll wrappers on my own and springroll wrappers are impossible for me to work with, so these have been a life saver for me.
  4. I have never heard of Reishi spores before. Sounds like something I could have have used yesterday. Before I took those samples I wasn't aware that there was anything that could be done to alvivate glutening symptoms except suffer through it. It is nice to know, since accidentlal glutening does happen, no matter how careful you are.
  5. I didn't see anything else on this. I would never risk taking it so I could eat gluten, but it did help me after being glutened. A few days ago got stupid after dealing with and difficult emotional situation. I was pretty upset and bought some cookiedough icecream with out even thinking about it. Stupid I know, but in my defence, it was a really, really...
  6. The best way for me to describe it is I feel like I am under water. When it clears though it is amazing.
  7. I noticed it seemed to be worse the first summer after I went gluten free. I had never had the itchy bumps you described (Polymorphous Light Eruption) pior to that. I deffinetly belive it is celiac related.
  8. I was diagnosed with celiacs 2 years ago. Since then I have met and become engaged to a wonderfully supportive man who has gone gluten free to eleminate any risk of me being gluten. Whil eit means th eworld to me that he has done this, I don't feel that it is fair to him to have to give up his favorite foods if he can eat them with out causing me to be glutened...
  9. I am in pain right now. I am pretty sure I got glutened. Earlier today I had a meeting at a pizza place. Obviously I didn't eat or even drink anything while there. Could it have been from inhaling flour in the air? I never considered my self hyper sensitive. Occasionally my two non celiac children will have poptarts or other gluten containing products in...
  10. It was definitely a change for the better for me. By the age of 26 I though I had gone through menopause because I completely stopped having periods. The Dr.s tested me for everything, tried putting me on hormones to try and trigger them ect. I felt like a freak, in some ways it was nice but deep down it frightened me. About two months in to being gluten...
  11. A friend recently invited me over and went out of their way to make me something gluten free and I had to turn it down and hurt their feeling, because it had rye. In their defense they only remembered the word wheat. Although cross contamination was a huge fear in my mind had it not contained rye. I felt so awful. I had no idea they were planning on making...
  12. I bought a bottle of LIfeway Kefier Pomegranate Acai Blueberry . It is labeled gluten free. I have tried many of their other flavors with no problem, so I didn't bother to read the ingredients until after I had some. Wheat grass was listed on the ingredients, so was barley grass. You would think that because I am still recovering from a glutening right before...
  13. My sons blood test came back negative. Dr. wouldn't even biopsy and even snapped at me when I requested one. I made it clear that I had tested positive and he had the same exact symptoms as I do/did, only he has had the symptoms since infancy. I didn't develop symptoms until later. She just got made and said, "He doesn't have it alight, you get it now? In...

    ARCHIVED Brain Fog

    Knowing that my brain fog is related to celiacs brought tears of relief to my eyes. There used to be days where I would be afraid to drive because I was so spacey. I thought I was going crazy. Like others have mentioned, it felt like my head was stuffed with cotton. I have been clear for a while but it came back the last two days. I went to a bbq over the...
  15. So I took my kids in today to be tested. I was hoping for a genetics test but I guess they won't do that? Insurance maybe? I also asked for for my son to be tested for vitamin deficiencies, they wouldn't do that either. My son was so uncooperative. He was having heart burn and stomach cramps but told the dr. he didn't. The dr. wants him tested for other possible...
