I am emailing my teacher now to let him know my situation. My other teacher is already aware. I have a bunch of chicken and rice! But I cant eat that all day! I need something I can take with me on the go. I usually eat bananas when I'm on the run and I eat kale and broccoli for greens. I guess I can finish up the last of bananas and buy a few pears instead... -

My dh is most serve on my FACE so I cannot risk it getting worse and scarring. I need something to work!

I know that newly diagnosed celiacs are not supposed to drink milk but raw milk kefir is the only thing that has helped me feel any better. As soon as I stopped taking it is when thing started to get worse. I tried other probiotics and they don't help. I NEED a good probiotics something at least as good as raw milk kefir and I have found nothing. Raw milk... -

I've been spending HOURS reading everyday but there is so much to know. I can't spend more money on more groceries and throw away more food! I am a broke college student with a fixed income. This is killing me I seriously want to die everyday! I tried to do a water fast because I feel like that is a last resort but I lost so much weight in this first day... -

I also have a white coated tounge and my hair is starting to thin. I use johnsons baby wash and apricot scrub n my face. I use shea butter as a lotion. Also products with zinc oxide seem to help with healing. -

What foods are high in sals? I'm eating almost nothing now. I have only had bananas, almonds, cranberries and I tried eating chicken last nite. THATS IT! I cut out soy a weeks ago...the reason I think its candida is because 1. I seemed to get a yeast infection at the same time my dh started getting worse. 2. When drink kefir w/ raw milk I only got new sores... -
I have severe Dh, tried dapsone and it made me break out in pinpoint red dots all over my body. I have been gluten free for 3 months now and it seems like my skin is getting worse. I am on a low iodine diet and it has helped but I'm still breaking out! I'm starting to think is caused by candida. I seemed to get a yeast infection at the same time I my Dh started...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Greens Supplements
CeliacFashionista posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Are there any gluten free superfood vitamins? Before I went gluten free/knew I had celiac I always did really well on superfood/greens supplements. The vitamins that showed the most improvement were Alive! wholefood energizer, Biochem's greens and whey, The Greatest vitamin in the world vitamin, and Primal Defense probiotics. I realize that all of these vitamins... -
ARCHIVED Seeing A Derm. This Week!
CeliacFashionista replied to CeliacFashionista's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
I've finally been prescribed the dapsone after having my blood work cleared. Today is my first day taking it and I still have breakouts despite being on 50mg of prednisone. How long does this stuff take to work. I just want to have a normal face already and not have to spend everyday hiding under a hat!!! Ugh -
ARCHIVED Seeing A Derm. This Week!
CeliacFashionista replied to CeliacFashionista's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
I have not hade a biopsy but I am 100% sure this is DH. My derm. is the type of doctor that believes diet does not cause skin issues so he is clueless about this. However, he will prescribe just about anything I ask for and he is the only doctor that I am sure will prescribe me with what I need. -
I will be seeing a derm. this thursday to get a prescription for my DH. I am on a short course of prednisone right and it is helping to clear up my skin in the mean time. I was wondering what prescriptions work best for this condition. My DH breakouts vary on my face from cystic like acne- itching little breakouts on my face and all over my body. I am so...

ARCHIVED What To Eat!? I'm Going Crazy :(
CeliacFashionista replied to CeliacFashionista's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thank you Guys so much for all your help! I was sent to the ER last because my eye has swollen up and they gave me prednisone to help with the swelling. Hopefully it will help the Dh as well. It sucks because I get the worst of it on my face and most doctors believe its just really bad cystic acne and aren't willing to treat it as anything else. Is prednisone... -

CeliacFashionista posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have been okay with eating gluten free but now I am trying to go on a low iodine diet to cure my DH. I need some type of candy that I CAN eat because this is driving me crazy!! I am almost to the point of suicide because of this disease and I don't think I can hold on much longer if things don't get better. Please someone help!! -

ARCHIVED Acne From Gluten?
CeliacFashionista replied to CeliacFashionista's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I've read about DH but my issue doesnt sound like DH. My skin doesn't get itchy or red or anything it's just a raised flesh colored bump that forms under the skin. There isnt any whitehead or anything though and when the finally go down they scar REALLY badly. -
I was wondering if anyone else got cystic acne when coming in contact with gluten? I've been gluten free for about 3 months now but if I accidently come in contact with gluten I break out in huge cystic bumps that scar for months! I am a college student and I and really into fashion so this is a BIG deal to me. I spend almost everyday in the house because...
