    thanks for the replies...I have sjrogrens (2010), hashimatos, and reynauds(2010) as well. Noone mentioned celiacs. The GI issues just started in October. They have gone away since gluten-free, although Thanksgiving my stomach was a trainwreck...all I ate was turkey and cranberry sauce. The endo said my thyroid was functioning in a normal range, so she will...

    I was recently diagnosed with hashimatos (about a week ago). The endocrinologist did the test because my thyroid was enlarged and I also have sjrogrens. She said these autoimmune diseases can run in clusters. Right now my thyroid levels are in a normal range (according to the endo, I need to request a copy of the labs). I have been gluten-free for about a...

    Thank you! That is very helpful. Is mayo safe otherwise (without cross contaminated knives)?

    can someone tell me what brand of ketchup, mustard, and mayo are safe?! I am a newbie to gluten-free and I have messed up quite a bit this week...I am learning so much on here! Thanks everyone!

    ARCHIVED Negative Blood Test?

    kathrynk replied to 123glutenfree's topic in Doctors

    I am worried as well about getting a false negative. I am still waiting on my celiac blood test results...However, I have read that those with hashimotos (I was just diagnosed last month) often test for a false negative. I had the blood draw done after being off gluten for only 3 days, so hopefully the antibodies were still high enough to get a result. I...

    I am hypoglycemic as well-I get shaky and very irritable without small frequent meals. I am off gluten for only about a week now-I am curious to see if there are changes!

    I was just going to post the same question-I also wanted to know about raw nuts in general. They all seem to say "packaged in a facility that handles wheat, nuts, soy, etc" Does that mean they are not gluten free? Are there any brands of nuts that are safe?

    Happy Thanksgiving! I am writing because I had a couple bites of turkey and some cranberry sauce. I also had some wine, maybe 1/2 a glass. After that I had intense stomach cramping and gas for a few hours. I have been very careful about avoiding allergens. I should get the celiac test results soon. (in a couple days) I'm thinking about requesting an ultrasound...

    how do you find nuts that are not processed with wheat? I did find gluten-free oats for oatmeal. I am bummed about my holiday cookies I am learning a ton on here-I will update and probably have more questions after seeing my primary MD today. I am frustrated that the endocrinology diagnosed me with hashimatos, and then said "your thyroid levels are fine...

    thank you so much! I will be getting the blood draw tomorrow for celiacs-I just don't know what to eat and I am hungry so often! I ordered off the gluten-free menu tonight(chicken, redbridge beer, green beans, and a baked potatoe, no butter)I thought that would cover most allergens, but my stomach is a trainwreck right now. I was in the process of cutting...

    Hi everyone, I am new here, my name is Kathy. I am a 35 year old mother of 2 little ones. I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called sjrogren's last year, and then diagnosed with hashumatos thyroid (autoimmune thyroid) last week. The past several weeks (probably about a month) I have been having severe gas pains and cramping after meals. It feels...
