ARCHIVED Do I Really Need My Own Pots And Pans?
ScarlettsMommy posted a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I just got diagnosed yesterday and am reading that CC can happen by using pots and pans that other people use to cook gluten foods in. My family is not celiac, and sadly I can really afford to go on a shopping spree to buy my own cookware, as the food itself is pretty costly. Even if I use their pots and pans and they are cleaned...will I still be CC? Sorry... -
I see alot of people talking about special body wash and shampoo...I was just diagnosed yesterday and Friday Im going to start my gluten free diet..but is it that necessary to buy gluten free hair care and body products? I thought just ingesting them was the problem..and to be honest I didnt even know gluten was in products like that. Thank you!

I had to have a capsule study done where I swallowed a pill with a camera on it to actually see the small intestines. (Which is where they finally saw the celiac damage... -

Thank you for all of your kind words. The hardest part is even though im 24 and married with a child, tough economic times are forcing us to live with my parents temporarily. Cooking for just myself, with all the tempation around me, and watching everyone eat my favorite foods in front of me makes me upset. When my mom says "Lets just order a pizza" I have... -
