  1. What is in coffee mate making it not safe?
  2. I wonder why you're still getting the nausea?? Unless 4 months still has not been long enough. How long do you think you've had the wheat problem overall? I wonder if you've done more damage and need longer to heal? I woke up this am feeling extremely anxious and nervous about this whole thing. I keep trying to tell myself to just STOP IT and if I have...
  3. what is the spray called? I have a cupboard of peppermint tea. But when I'm seriously nauseaus, I can't take anything in. I take just enough water to take my tiny pill down. Since you've been gluten free - are you nauseaus anymore at all? I'm sure you'll get nauseaus sometimes like from over eating.... or viruses etc. but the nausea for no reason type...
  4. In a pinch you could always use Dramamine. I have used that too and it works well with nausea.
  5. In my last post I tried to quote certain parts but it didn't come out right - oh well. Lets see.... about the anti nausea meds like Compazine. Great stuff. If you feel real nauseaus, you just take one compazine and it bascially makes the brain not recognize the nausea.(if that makes sense) Now if you've been food poisened or something like that and your...
  6. Darby, I, too, have emetephobia and I had a colonoscopy in December. That is worse than endoscopy b/c you have to drink an entire bottle of laxatives and a lot of people throw up from it. As you can imagine, I was panicked about that. It wasn't pretty but I didn't get sick. At least with the upper endoscopy you will not have to prepare in that way-so don...
  7. hmmm... I'm not sure. They just said that my bloodwork came back showing antibodies sensitive to wheat. Or something to that effect. And they want me in on Thurs. for the biopsy to rule out celiac. So as of right now, they don't know if it's celiac or not. No, I'm not taking any vitamins yet. Every ones I've tried in the past upset my stomach. Darby
  8. I'm new to all this as well. You meantioned your pizza episode! About 2 weeks ago we had pizza and after eating two small slices, I started to bloat and got a bit nauseaus (not real bad) but I felt uncomfortable all night. And even into the next day. I think I also had a bout of diarrhea the next morning -- I don't remember. But I felt crappy! I'm...
  9. Thank you all! You've already picked up my spirits. I guess it was the shock of it all when the Dr. first called and meantioned CELIAC and I freaked. I just want to feel good again. I'm so glad to hear that there are salad dressings out there that are safe. I LOVE salads. Kaiti: I have been on digestive enzymes and probiotics for quite some time...
  10. Just been reading more posts on this site. I have terrible anxiety and I see that is one of the symptoms. Also weight loss... Does this mean I'll get fat if in fact my tests come back positive and I need to go gluten-free? Will the anxiety go away once on a gluten-free? I wish my Dr. had not told me that I could have celiac because I'm a research fiend...
  11. I have felt sickly now for a very long time. I've been going to a chiropracter/kinesiologist for many years and just recently (this week) I went to a gastrointestinal dr. The first test they ran was a blood test. Just got a call from them and said that the tests showed that I was sensitive to wheat. So, now I'm scheduled for an endoscopy for a biopsy...
