  1. I google searched "celiac forum" I live in Colorado, and really, only Boulder understands (somewhat). Boulder is the place where all of the hippies and yuppies with high maintenance diets live. Everything is vegan, organic, vegetarian, and gluten free. It's pretty nice! Mom did buy me a slow cooker for an early birthday gift, but I have only made gross...
  2. Thanks I think my main issue right now is balance. My doctor that diagnosed me actually made the diagnosis off of a hunch (unexplained vitamin D deficiency, malaise, paleness, inability to gain weight, etc.) and she really doesn't know anything about the disease. I think she's learning more about it from me than I can from her. I just don't know how to start...
  3. I was diagnosed as having a gluten intolerance in June/July (blood tests for Celiac came back negative). I was doing ok up till now... At first I was sad but I quickly came to enjoy the fact that all of my food has simple ingredients and I'm not a victim of processed foods anymore. But for some reason this week I've been having such a hard time with this...
  4. I'm sure. I have never been allergic to anything before. I think when I went on this "wheat binge", it was just way too much. Sure, when I ate wheat in an isolated situation after, I felt crappy for a while (still do) but it wasn't so dramatic. I assume it was because my body was finally feeling better, healing itself, cleansed from the stuff it has been...
  5. Thanks! I will have to do some research on that. I looked up DH and that actually seems pretty dead on... oy vey. Honestly, because this whole thing is a lot of firsts for me, I have absolutely no idea about what any of this is. It itches and it isn't mosquito season? Must be hives, the only allergic reaction I know of. My stomach hurts? I must be getting...
  6. Hello, I am 21 (almost 22) and was diagnosed with Celiac disease about 3-4 months ago, in June or July (I have a horrible sense of time). Up until this diagnosis, I have been decently healthy. I mean as a child I would get sick a little more often than the other kids and had my bouts of unexplained abdominal pain, have teeth that love to be weak, and dealt...
  7. So if I've eaten gluten free for a day will that mess up my blood test results? And, unfortunately, Celiac is on the list of conditions that will not be accepted. Open Original Shared Link Also, thanks for the quick response
  8. Hello all, I didn't really get diagnosed with Celiac disease yet, but my doctor has strong suspicions that I may have that. I opted to put myself on a gluten-free diet for 2 weeks (after which wheat will be re-introduced to my system and we'll take note of any reaction I may or may not have) instead of a blood test... So at this point, I'm pretty confused...
