  1. Gut Check Belatedly, an Illness Of the Intestines Gets Notice in U.S. Long Well-Known in Europe, Celiac Disease May Affect Up to 3 Million Americans Mr. Martin's Misdiagnoses By DAVID P. HAMILTON Staff Reporter of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL December 9, 2005; Page A1 Growing up in the Midwest during the Depression, John Dryden was a sickly child...
  2. Just wondering if any of you have eaten at Hale and Hearty Soups and know if they offer gluten-free soups?? thanks!!!!! Magdalena
  3. I totally understand your concerns about brain fog and fatigue. those were and still are my two MAJOR SYMPTOMS! Ive been gluten-free for about a year now and my symtoms have improved by 50-60%...I've asked EVERYONE about brain fog, and I get so many different responses. some say B-12, and others say i could have a hidden food allergy, it could be mycotoxins...
  4. So, my biopsy came back "negative". My symptoms have GREATLY improved since gluten-free, but still have brain fog! anyways, i really really really think i have celiac disease but ever since i decided to go gluten-free, everything is negative (which is a good thing!), but now no doctors believe me!!! argh.. is there any other test that can show celiac...
  5. Lush green, THe symptoms sound incredibly on point. I would go ahead and get some blood work done asap!
  6. Thanks to everyone for their replies. i really appreciate your input! This will be my first biopsy, and I am pretty nervous that it will be negative. June 2003: IgG (45) , everything else negative June 03-July 04: Wheat free July 04-August 04: Ate a lot of wheat because was travelling in S. America..developed skin blisters with puss.... Sept...
  7. Hello everyone, so sorry to be beating a dead horse, but Ive looked on the threads and I still have some questions about endoscopy/biopsies. I have been gluten-free since June of 2004......I still experience diarrhea and constipation as well as the mental symptoms of celiac..I also have the infamous skin blisters that were once full of puss one year ago...
  8. Thank you printmaker81! i hope yuo dont mind me emailing you personally... Thanks for the Vitamin B-12 advice..its comforting to hera that someone was able to find a solution to depression/apathy/fog from a nutritional supplement! How about loss of sense of taste and smell....is that a zinc deficiency? how is that related to celiac disease?? thanks...
  9. Medaka, I totally understand your frustration on the gluten-free foods. Its a tough life style change to make. I don't know how everyone else on this forum feels, but I find that if I have to make something "gluten-free", then its probably not worth doing it. What I mean is that we are used to the tastes of pizza dough, cookies, and cakes made of flour...
  10. I WOULD order Reliv except that I am allergic to Soy and Yeast. Both of which are ingredients in it!!! I am going to look for something else though... I truly hope my apathy/depression/low sex drive is related to the malabsorption issues... because I just can't justify to myself going on an anti-depressant right now... sigh, who really knows though...
  11. HI Eloisa, and thanks for your responses!! So, it seems like you are a BIG advocate of Reliv...i wish there was some sort of money back guarantee or somethin! But yeah, I suppose I will talk with my doctor's about the source of my depression, but ultimately, whatever triggered this has stayed with me, and I need to get out of it!!!!! in MY opinion, i...
  12. Eloisa, i really appreciate you sending me that email! Thanks for all the advice. But I wonder, why wouldn't a good mulit-vitamin do the trick instead? you see, I am allergic to soy and yeast so the Reliv is a no go for me. But yeah, I really feel like my depression is like 95% related to my physiological depression. I know that the B-vitamins, zinc...
  13. Eloisa, What are these Reliv shakes that you speak of??? Yes, tarnalberry, the advice about the depression is right on the money. I mean, the depression I am feeling right now is definitely pyschological AND phsiological. I've been to a couple of different therapists, but to be honest, Im not sure that is what the answer is. THey've recommended various...
  14. Job well done Steve. You know your body better than anyone else. all the best in finding a concrete diagnosis. Magdalena
  15. I really appreciate your prompt responses. Thank you to everyone. I do have really low blood sugar, but i eat a very balanced diet of mostly fresh veggies, plant based proteins, SOME animal proteins, and some complex carbs.... THe brain fog is really something I feel all day..but it is especially bad when my blood sugar drops. I doubt that...
  16. Embarrassing but true. I am 22 years old, and I have zero sex drive....its really hard to pinpoint what it is...any advice?
  17. Hello everyone- my name is Magdalena, and I am brand spanking new to this forum. What's happening my gluten-free friends? So, after reading several of your posts, I feel comforted to know that I am not alone in my GI/immune system distress. Oh boy, the list of things that I feel- I won't go through it all, but just know that the allergies, skin rashes...
