I have never been able to tolerate coffee. Even when I sneaked it when I was little it made me sick to my stomach. Now I feel terrible all over when I drink it.

It seems like when I think I'm glutened (I haven't purposefully eaten gluten since giving it up 7/15/11) I get different symptoms. Sometimes I am so constipated and bloated I think I am going to pop, sometimes I get D, sometimes I get the return of joint pain in my wrists, sometimes my face breaks out with acne and my armpits itch like crazy, and sometimes...

ARCHIVED Scalloped Sides Of Tongue. Trying To Figure Out Why
AMom2010 replied to sreese68's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I have had a scalloped tongue frOm pressing against my teeth for as long as I can remember. I too have been extremely thirsty for the last couple of years. I have been gluten free for 8 weeks and I just checked my tongue and it is still scalloped. Who knows? -
ARCHIVED Celiac Cost Me Everything
AMom2010 replied to ravenwoodglass's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I too am so very sorry for your loss! There is nothing worse than having your constant, very best buddy leave your side. I hope you begin to feel better soon! It will get better! I too thank thank you for all your knowledge and support on this forum, I frequently think of your words during the day and I have begun this new gluten free lifestyle. -
ARCHIVED Looking For Yogurt

I have heard about chobani and orikos. Never tried Greek yogurt myself but I want to . I have seen them next to all the other yogurt at the grocery store. -
ARCHIVED Low Carb Diet For Daughter.
AMom2010 replied to Juliebove's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Please forgive my ignorance, but if you are diabetic and your daughter is pre-diabetic/insulin resistant, shouldn't you both be eating a low carb diet? In the same breath you said you eat white bread and mashed potatoes but can't get your diabetes under control. Try eating a low volume nutritious diet like some others have suggested. You may find that... -
ARCHIVED Low Carb Diet For Daughter.
AMom2010 replied to Juliebove's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
You might consider getting rid of EVERYTHING in the house that could sabatoge her diet, including your husband's goodies. If it's not there, she can't eat it. He can always go out for ice cream, or take the whole family once a week for a special treat if she's been trying her best to adhere to the diet. I agree that she has to learn to make good choices... -
ARCHIVED So Bloated!
AMom2010 replied to AMom2010's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I think I will try to go dairy free for a couple of days to see if it makes a difference. Thanks Takala! I was also wondering if food allergies I had as a child might be bothering me now since going gluten free. I was never tested but my tongue always itched after eating pecans/walnuts, avocados, cantalope, and bananas. I don't get an itchy tongue anymore... -
ARCHIVED So Bloated!
AMom2010 posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi everyone I will be coming up on 5 weeks of being gluten free tomorrow. Since the day after I cut out gluten I have been bloated off and on, and more frequently lately. I have been trying to do my best to avoid gluten and CC, but have probably been glutened 3 times due to CC at restaurants since I started. Could those instances of CC be contributing... -
ARCHIVED Dark, Grainy Poop
AMom2010 replied to AMom2010's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
The Dr. got back with me and said as long as it wasn't black, she wasn't worried about it. I do feel the very dark foods contributed to the color and I haven't seen the dark coffee grounds since I posted this last week. She is still having diarrhea however, it seems the lactaid milk only helped for about a week, sigh... -
ARCHIVED What's For Breakfast Today?
AMom2010 replied to GlutenFreeManna's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I made heuvos rancheros (sp)? and it was delish! Sauteed some onion then simmered a can of rotel tomatoes with the onion until thickened. Poached eggs right on top of the tomatoes and served on a crisp corn tortilla with refried beans and shredded cheese. Very good and filling, even my 15 mo. old gobbled it up -
ARCHIVED Is Gluten Free Ever Easy?
AMom2010 replied to glutenfreewifey's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I have been gluten-free for a month, and for me meal planning is very easy. As it turns out I didn't eat that much gluten to begin with and have always been a whole foods shopper for the most part. I have started eating more eggs for breakfast and replaced corn tortillas for sandwich bread and gluten-free cereal for my beloved Cheerios and oatmeal. ... -
I feel pretty awful if I drink caffiene, especially coffee. Thank God chocolate doesn't affect me negatively, lol!

ARCHIVED Hair Getting Less Grey After Gluten Free
AMom2010 replied to Austin Guy's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I noticed my grays disappeared when I was pregnant. It has been said autoimmune disorders often go into remission during pregnancy. I have been gluten-free for a month and hopefully I will see them disappear again! -
ARCHIVED Dairy Queen Madness
AMom2010 replied to kimis's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I would worry about CC with the blizzards b/c I don't know if they clean out the equipment in between orders. I just went there Sat. night and got the hot fugde sundae. Yummy! -
ARCHIVED Dark, Grainy Poop
AMom2010 replied to AMom2010's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Thank you for the replies, I emailed the Dr. last night and her nurse emailed me back and told me that she would follow-up with the Dr about it. I'm sure she'll want me to bring in another sample. This morning her stool wasn't nearly as grainy, I caved and gave her back the bottle with lactaid last night and this morning. I guess we will fight the bottle... -
So the wierd poop just won't stop... DD began having diarrhea first of June, and it began to become more "normal" after a week on lactaid milk which we started the first of August (lactose intolerance test was negative by the way). On Monday I started trying to wean her from the bottle (she's 15 mos old) since her bowel issues seemed to have cleared...

ARCHIVED New, Stressed, And Confused
AMom2010 replied to CurlyCyn83's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My celiac panel was negative, but after researching the topics on this board I am still convinced my issues are due to eating gluten. I have been gluten-free for nearly 4 weeks and the joint pain and fatigue are gone. I am so encouraged to keep going and am very hopeful my other issues will resolve after being on the diet longer. I had an MRI last fall... -
Yay for you! I am coming up on a month gluten free and my joint pain and fatigue are gone. Face has cleared up quite a bit too! It's funny you mention funnel cake as your most desired gluten item, it's the one thing I would never in a million years touch! Got sick from eating one at Six Flags when I was 8 or so. I don't miss gluten all all either, in...

ARCHIVED Please Help! *** Warning Nasty Poop Pictures***
AMom2010 replied to Britmum30's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
This is what my daughter's poop looks like much of the time, she is 15 mos old and has been having chronic diarrhea for the last 2 months. When it isn't this color, it is dark brown, but is the same consistency. We have had her on lactaid milk since Saturday and her poop was starting to look more normal, but as of this morning we are back to the nasty diarrhea... -

ARCHIVED Wow - gluten-free Really Makes A Difference!
AMom2010 replied to AMom2010's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Oh no, I hope I don't have to give up oatmeal! Thanks for the tip though. Ana, I feel so good I don't imagine I will ever go back to eating gluten again. Hopefully like you I will see the neuro symptoms improve at some point. `
