Yeah yeah yeah....whole foods, fruits and veggies I know. HA HA! But this one is a quick meal right before we head out to a softball game. Plus my meat and potatoes husband loves it and my kids eat it up. I can't say that for all my meals. : ) Bag of frozen tater tots (double check to make sure gluten-free) 1 pound lean ground beef 1/2 chopped onion...

ARCHIVED Ethical (And Legal) Question On Enterolab
1974girl replied to JaneWhoLovesRain's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Would it be wrong for someone to order it for you and you pay them back? It doesn't allow THEIR residents to order it. -
ARCHIVED Sharing A Locker
1974girl replied to wcalc's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I think she will be fine. I can't remember anytime ever having my locker mates lunch on my stuff. I'd be much more concerned about the lunch tables. They were never wiped in between people. We have to be careful to not make them scared of the world but cc is a real issue. I don't think the lockers are but the tables might be. Send some wipes! -

My dd loves ham lunch meat with cream cheese rolled up in them. -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Ready Made School Lunches
1974girl replied to gfgramma's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Just wanted to let you know of a few regular grocery store items for this. This helps if you need quick access and cheaper than specialty. The Dinty Moore Compleats have 2 that are gluten free. The Dinty Moore beef stew and the chicken and rice. If your child can use a microwave for 90 seconds (or have a teacher do it in the lounge) then those are good... -
The Cantina bowl says no wheat or gluten. Am I missing what you are seeing? I do wonder about the gloves and stuff like that. My dd is not sensitive at all and I would never know. It is so hard!
-
We have not had anything from taco bell since December. I just read on a gluten-free blog that they invited a celiac just to introduce the new Cantina menu. They have a salad and a taco made from a corn tortilla. The meat is not supposed to have gluten like their other "meat". There were reviews where even sensitive celiacs didn't react. Anyone here try them...

ARCHIVED How Long Until Ttg Down, When Gluten-Light?
1974girl replied to Mom-of-Two's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
That's horrible. Since I live with a type 1 I can't imagine. My dh and I were both tested for celiac after my dd diagnosis. We were negative. Now y'all have me freaked out that 1/3 are wrong. I was wondering in the shower if my test was wrong! -

ARCHIVED How Long Until Ttg Down, When Gluten-Light?
1974girl replied to Mom-of-Two's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thanks. I do see your points too. I really do Oh about Lyme. That I'd why I mentioned that one. My friend was told she had MS only to discover it was really Lyme. gluten-free helps that too so she is also gluten free. But she was tested twice and told told no also. But she told me another lab found it. I wonder if it was the same one! Anyway they will... -
ARCHIVED Movie Popcorn
1974girl replied to carteem's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I don't know the brand but when I asked at our theater, I got the same answer! "Uh...it's just popcorn." I made them give me the label and it literally was just corn. It was totally gluten free. They used the scooper just for the popcorn so I think it was safe. I let my daughter eat it. (Child size) Now, I am not celiac and will get violently ill on... -
ARCHIVED How Long Until Ttg Down, When Gluten-Light?
1974girl replied to Mom-of-Two's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thanks for being so nice even when you think I'm nuts. Now I have a question to try and understand those who don't believe negative but always believe positive. Is it just on celiac tests? If you were tested for Lyme disease and it was negative would you believe it? I have a friend with Lyme who swears negative tests mean nothing and thinks everyone has... -
ARCHIVED How Long Until Ttg Down, When Gluten-Light?
1974girl replied to Mom-of-Two's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I should clarify that my oldest has no GI symptoms. Who knows if the celiac caused the others autoimmune. Dh is type 1 so we just have bad genes. Celiac child has 2 genes for celiac. Uggg! I am hoping the fact I breastfed number 2 will help. If I had known I would have done it with number 1 but I was stupid and fed her soy formula for a year! -
ARCHIVED How Long Until Ttg Down, When Gluten-Light?
1974girl replied to Mom-of-Two's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It's ok if we disagree! I am fine with answering. And I might be wrong! Who knows. But my girls have no symptoms. I think it is easier to believe negative results when they can eat a loaf is bread just fine. I may think differently if my kid was sick. I am sure I'd doubt the results. I am not willing to call her celiac with negative tests and no symptoms... -
ARCHIVED After Testing, Did Dr. Make You Come Back In For Results?
1974girl replied to heathenly's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
yep...ours did the same thing. You'd think when you pay for the tests that the results would be included! I had to drive 3 1/2 hours to get them! The nurse did call and tell me to go gluten-free but the actually results and what to do, I had to go in. -
ARCHIVED How Long Until Ttg Down, When Gluten-Light?
1974girl replied to Mom-of-Two's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I am in the minority I know but I do not trust the reliablity of Ttg solely. I know I have told this story a zillion times but I will tell it again. My celiac daughter had a ttg of 164 and 2 weeks later at another doctor and a different lab without a diet change, she had 8. Yes, the range was different but the 164 was supposed to be under 15 (very positive... -
ARCHIVED Allergy Blood Work Testing Vs. Allergy Needle Testing
1974girl replied to twe0708's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
My allergist said the same thing. I also belong to another EoE message board since my daughter has that. A doctor is making a lot of people mad because he got up at an EoE conference and told them that blood tests are useless and your body will make antibodies to everything you eat. This causes a ton of false positives. A lot of families who used it are... -
ARCHIVED Need Help With What To Feed Toddler

My dd is allergic to tree nuts and peanuts but sunbutter is ok. I guess flower seeds are fine. Pumpkin seeds are ok too. -
ARCHIVED In Hindsight, Anyone Regret Skipping The Endoscopy?
1974girl replied to AGH2010's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Let me tell you what I'd do. First let me tell you what I did. Mine had the pos TTg and EMA and I chose to scope her since she had no symptoms. I knew EMA was around 98% sure but as a mama I was holding on to that 2%. She was positive but they did find an esophagus problem and ulcers. So the scope did alert us to other things. However.... If I were you... -
ARCHIVED Awaiting Lab Results
1974girl replied to Dnwestover's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I hope you find an answer! My dd has has hashimotos and celiac. I found out that different thyroid meds are not the same. Sometimes they give you the generic and they have different manufacters of those! My Sil is a pharmacy student and tells me that the absorption rate is different. They recently filled my dd with the generic and I had to go back in... -
Congratulations! Fertility issues is the main reason that keeps me going gluten-free with my silent celiac dd. So glad it all is working out. I hope you will try to breast feed. There is a lot if research that shows that may help protect the development of celiac and type 1 diabetes. I did not do it with my 1st and she got celiac. I did for a year with...

Well we got back the 6 month mark test results on my 12 year old daughter Yippee. They were normal! TTg had been 164 and it was now 8. I had been very anxious since she doesn't have symptoms. We eat out once a week to safe places but I was never fully sure. My youngest has been on gluten to retest in 6 months. She was totally normal at this lab and...

Just read the article on here with the video. It was a YouTube video talking about how 1 in 17 kids have a food allergy. She researched and said that in 1994 they started with the Gmos. Other countries banned them but not us! And we have the highest cancer rates and healthcare cost of any country! So when did your food intolerances start. Has it been since...

ARCHIVED Kellogs Corn Pops - What Am I Missing Here?
1974girl replied to Glutendude25's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
So can people in the US have them or did you react to the Canadian ones? I looked at the shake and bake glaze after hearing Canadian ones have wheat protein. I looked and ours did not? Why not make them the same?
