Celiac.com - Celiac Disease & Gluten-Free Diet Support Since 1995

  1. So I was diagnosed via a celiac panel approximately three years ago and have been gluten free since (minus the rookie mistakes and CC) My symptoms have definitely gotten better but I don't feel 100% so I decided to see a gastroenterologist I've been having a lot of nausea with some vomitting along with having to run to the bathroom a few time a day but had...
  2. I've been having some digestive issues lately so I decided to see a gastro doc. A little background info though: I was diagnosed with celiac through a blood test about three or four years ago, and she never did a biopsy to confirm the diagnoses.My symptoms have improved significantly with the gluten free diet so I do really think that it is celiac disease...
  3. Just running my hands over my legs makes them hurt almost like a big bruise but there's no bruise. I got a massage the other day and it was painful when they got to my legs. It's mostly the calf and my inner and outer thigh. Could this be some sort of vitamin deficency or something? Anybody experience anything similar? Any advice would be appreciated!

    ARCHIVED Nashville Doctors

    I've decided to switch physicians, my current one sends me for all kinds of crazy expensive tests for little things like a stomach ache and very low fever. I feel like these tests are unnecessary not to mention costly! I'm looking for a new family doctor, maybe one that has an understanding of celiac. I'm scared to switch doctors because I don't want to end...
  5. I don't know if anyone has shared this video here before but I just ran across it on youtube and I thought it was hilarious, mostly because I have heard about 99 percent of everything on this video. Just a little bit of humor to brighten your day :] Heres another one "Stuff Celiacs Say"
  6. All great ideas, I found a few things through our school database but there wasn't really a whole lot on just celiac, most of the articles had to do with celiac and its effects on a another disease. It's coming along though, I don't have to give my speech until march 19th so i've got plenty of time to edit and make it better. Now im trying to decide whether...
  7. I forget its there sometimes honestly lol, its definitely a reminder though to keep myself healthy and happy :] hurt like crazy to get it though, especially on my spine that was killer but it was worth it in my opinion.
  8. Almost a year ago I posted a topic on here for ideas for a tattoo to represent my gluten free transformation, and silly me I forgot to post a picture of it completed! So here it is. It's a phoenix to represent coming from being sick to a new healthy lifestyle. Anybody else have tattoos that represent their diagnoses? or even just any meaningful tattoos
  9. I wasn't really sure where to put this post so if it's in the wrong place, I'm sorry. I'm taking a speech class in college and we have to do an informative speech, I've chosen celiac disease as my topic(I was diagnosed a year ago). I am having some trouble finding articles written by professionals (like a article written by a doctor) I need statistics, expert...
  10. I've worked at a grooming shop and have seen many cases of dogs coming in with hot spots, yeasty skin or other skin problems saying they've tried everything. We tell them to change to a holistic grain free corn free diet and within weeks the dogs skin issues disappear, canines are meant to be carnivores they just fill pet food with corn for a filler.
  11. Udi's is my favorite I also use Rudis from time to time but I always toast the bread in the oven under the broiler. I can't even tell the difference as long as its toasted
  12. Walgreens brand cough syrup is labeled gluten free
  13. I used to have horses a couple years back but I had to sell them for financial reasons. I was not diagnosed as a celiac at that point. I've always loved riding, I had a quarter horse gelding and a spotted saddle horse mare. Eventually I want to start riding again and get into competing in hunter jumpers.
  14. No not yet, I figured I'd give my body a little more time to heal and see if it improves, also I still can't get enough sleep. I could sleep all day and still be exhausted doesn't matter if I get 4,8,14 hours of sleep
  15. I've been gluten free for about four months now with a few accidental glutenings from cc, but I've been pretty careful about what I'm eating and lately I have been craving salty foods like crazy, is it possible this is related to celiacs? I craved salt before going gluten-free too just not this badly, its like an insatiable craving.
  16. Lol they didn't say what they thought it was made of no idea what they were thinkin they are always asking about what I can't eat
  17. I made some gluten free mac and cheese and a gluten-free chocolate chip cookie cheese cake to bring and my family loved it. They couldn't even tell it was gluten free.
  18. I was at work today and they went to get a cake from kroger for a girls birthday and came back and told me they got yellow cake with cream cheese icing so I could have cake too lol I just kinda laughed and told them I appreciate the thought but It was still cake made from flour. Atleast they tried to include me
  19. Thats sweet that you want to take ever precaution to keep her from getting sick just remember ask lots of questions if your not sure about something, I'm still trying to get it through my boyfriends head that he cannot use my pots and pans to cook gluten food! Ughhh so frustrating have had to replace my pots and pans a few times
  20. The delicious smell of all your old favorite gluteny foods and knowing you cant have them
  21. My mom has been very supportive of my gluten free diet. She understands why I'm not comfortable eating things that don't come out of my kitchen. My eight year old niece is always asking me if certain foods are gluten free, its cute even though she doesn't understand what gluten is. I have also been blessed with a boyfriend who trys so hard to understand and...
  22. I am right outside Nashville
  23. I have had those dreams a million times ill eat something I can't have and realize all of a sudden that im not supposed to have it then I'll either spit it out or pig out on it because i already ate some anyways. Its a relief waking up though knowing I didn't really get glutened
  24. Ever since I can remember doctors have told me my lymph nodes in my neck are larger than normal, one seems to be bigger than the other. Could this be from celiacs disease?
  25. I would love to talk to some local people who have celiacs, I am the only person I know with celiacs and have been gluten free for about a month and a week. I'm feeling better but still so frustrated with the situation. I don't think it is possible for anyone who doesn't have celiacs to really understand what it's like. Also I'd love to know where I can get...
