  1. DONT DO THAT!!! NO more acid is needed. TRUST ME ON THIS!!!! I was watching this infomercial and it said to try vinegar. BAD MOVE. I will be pooping acid tomorrow (back to day one again). Ask your doctor about the CARAFATE suspension. It is made by axcan and they are REALLY nice about finding out info for you if you have problems. Make sure...
  2. What type of enzymes? My sister uses some for her daughter but has heard it is bad for celiacs. She says the broad based stuff would be ood but am not sure it is working. I am going to the accupressure Dr Monday and am hoping she will give me good advice about vitamins, and foods. I so want to get better. I just need to stop poisoning myself. =...
  3. Frustrated. Back to day one again. I'm sitting at home hurting and not able to o to church. After the TV service, infomercial comes on telling me the "cure" for acid reflux (tablespoon of vinegar). Like a dummy... I decide, well, why not try it? I was going to do one pickle, but couldn't as it has corn syrup in it. So tried a teaspoon of...
  4. MY STOMACH hurts... What do I eat? How do I eat so that things hurt less? I know some things that came up not allergic on the last allergy test. I can eat that. So my diet would be just fish. I've eaten pears. WHAT is OK?
  5. Does anyone have any information about gluten issues and using Carafate? I am allergic to corn too and it has a cornstarch base. But it is the only med that helps me sleep. Tried the solute instead of the pill (has no cornstarch) but I broke out in a hot flash and rash. I am wondering what is in it???
  6. I understand... I am hurting too and am tired of being asked, "How are you doing?" when the answer is always the same. I keep thinking, I am only 33. What is wrong with me???? I am too young to be this sick. I am so sorry that this is hurting you so.
  7. Wow... I am getting really scared. I am wheat allergic and being tested for celiac disease. This is going to change everything about my life. I was one of those who probably would have said something to the effect of "you are over-reacting." That was the way I was with a friend of mine with reflux for a while. How dumb is that. Now that I have...
  8. Another question I might add to the topic is do you wear tight fitting clothing? That can cause constipation and bowel issues too. OK that's my 2 cents.
  9. What's so frustrating is that while coke and icecream can be gluten free often they have CORN in them!!!! That's ok. Don't think I'll be doing milk for a while cause I am hurting... Staying away from starchies for a while.
  10. You don't know what a blessing you are. I am going gluten free before those tests because I HURT!!!!!! If tests come back negative, OH WELL!!!!
  11. I am on carafate to coat my stomach. The pills are made with a corn starch (I don't get a rash from it). I am allergic to corn and wheat so asked for the liquid (no starch there). Got a pimply swollen face and an itch body along with hot flash. Does anyone know anything about what they use for cellulose? I have called the co and asked but no response...
  12. I want to know lists... What do I avoid? How do I avoid it if I don't know what carries gluten? Being given the celiac blood test this week and hurting, hurting, hurting... Shampoos, toothpastes, soaps, drinks, cream cheese? Where do I get these lists?
  13. I've had an allergy to rice for years. That is my reaction any time I get riced. I also go into anaphylaxis. Frustrating. Stay away from rice. Oh thanks for the tips about starchy foods. Potatoes may be upsetting my stomach. What about fruits like pears etc???
  14. Where do you get a forbidden foods list??? I'm new too and in PAIN.
  15. Have you been tested for food allergies? Sometimes that can cause the symptoms too. Rice kills my stomach.
  16. I have just been diagnosed with a wheat and corn allergy and it doesn't quit. I have been in pain on and off now for an entire month. I'll have 4 good days and then 4 REALLY PAINFUL days. I don't know when this will stop or if it will ever stop!!!! It's really frustrating. I have spent huge amounts of money on med's to find out I am allergic to this...
  17. Dr. didn't tell me when I started into these problems a month ago that I could be allergic to wheat and this may be causin this pain. I had been eating bread and cream of wheat like it was going out of style. But found out that it is a moderate high allergen. Reflux started from allergies and them killing off everything in my stomach with three antibiotics...
