    I am pretty new to this gluten free diet. My GI Dr. just said to avoid gluten. He never told me what not to eat. He did set me up with a nutritionist, which I see this Friday. I can drink milk and eat all dairy products without any problems, so I am hoping I won't have to give them up. I hope the nutritionist works with me to find a diet that will work...

    My bloodtests showed i was very irondeficient. My GP didn't know why, but did set me up for ferrintin infusions. i went 3 days in a row. It made me feel alot better. Within a couple weeks I saw a GI and had a biopsy, which confirmed the celiac diagnosis. They did more blood tests. I am still a little anemic, but much better. they will recheck in 3 months...

It takes several small meals up into about 100 to feel like I am not starving.For several months before going gluten free i would lay awake for hours or for the entire night. I had my left knee replacement Aug. 8th. after the surgery i started...

    How do you know if you are a super sensitive celiac or super sensitive to gluten? I can eat almost anything and not feel sick. I went to the GI because of the diarehha,weight lost, iron anemia. HE DID a endoscopy and the biopsy said most likely celiac. i had a celiac panel and other celiac related blood test done after being gluten free for a couple weeks...

I found out i had iron deficienct anemia and got 3 ferrin infusions in Dec. I was hospitalized in Nov. my nutrition count was low and i felt so weak. 3 weeks ago i was diagnosed with celiac. I had lots of bloodwork...

    I had my blood drawn today to to if my blood is thin enough. as mentioned above the warafin doesn't seem to be absorbing. I got a call from my dR. office this afternoon. they wanted to know if I am having any symptoms of bleeding? I said no and asked why. she said my blood is too thin now. my count went from 1.5 to 5.8 in two weeks. in over 4 months we couldn...

    I was told at the ER about 11/2 years ago that i had a blood clot somewhere in my body after a special blood test result came back. they did a ct scan of my chest and it wasn't there. i was discharged. This was way before being diagnosed with celiac. I had left knee replacement in aug of 2011. A couple weeks later I was so sick I went to the ER.They found...

    I called Krogers on Friday to check on condiments. The lady looked them up and said their storebrand of catsup,regular whipped salad dressing,mayo,mustard and tartar sauce is gluten free. I am new too and trying to learn what I can and can't use.

    do any of you know if otc pain medicine is gluten free? I cannot take iboprofen as i am on warafin for a blood clot in my lung. It was found shortly after my knee replacement. I have a absorption problem and would probably do better on a liquid pain medicine. I have to keep getting a higher dose of warafin because I am not absorbing all of it. my levels are...

I eat these things and they don't seem to bother my stomach. I don't know how much damage I have. I haven't seen the Dr since the EGD. After the EGD he said it looked...

    Hi. I have just recently been diagnosed with celiac disease. I am trying to find gluten free hotdogs. I called Kahns and they told me that kahns does not test any of their products for gluten. Does anybody know if they are ok to eat? They are my favorite! What are some alternatives that are not too expensive?
