    Thanks Peter I had no idea that VH soy sauce was gluten-free. Here I have been buying tamari when all this time I could have bought the less expensive one. Do you know if the lite VH is gluten free too???

    Thanks Donna for your words of encouragement.... I never really thought about evaluating my problems like you have.... I went to the doc today and he put me on Amitriptyline to help me sleep better at night... hopefully it will help.... I would have to say that your persective on this whole health issue we suffer from is much more positive than what I have...

    I just don't know anymore.... the rheumatologist I saw on Friday said I have FMS but I am a little discouraged. I don't have pain in all of the trigger points. I have the pain on my hips and one knee that is it. It is my joints that hurt the most. My hip joints and my legs ache like crazy. The bottom of my feet and lower back. I am so tired and hurt so much...

    Hi Judy I havent tried the dairy free as I hardly ever consume any dairy products. I do take calcium though...not sure what casein is????? Saw my doc today he said the brain fog is just because I am not feeling well...I think I should put him in a canoe and send him out to sea!!!!

    Brain fog is one of my worst symptoms... I have been gluten free for about 5 mnths now and it is not improving. I work in the financial industry and find it extremely upsetting when I notice I have made errors. I have recently gone on short term disability due to the pain & fog I have been experiencing. The forgetfulness is getting out of control....

    I saw a registered dietician which fortunately in Canada is paid for on our medical plan. She was very helpful...gave me lots of brochures for research and a list of vitamins to take to help bring my deficiencies under control. One of our local grocery store chains has a program that a nutritionist will take you on a tour and teach how to read labels on...

    Great link....it is good to hear that you have a good doctor. Mine has never dealt with a celiac patient before so I am giving this link to him. Maybe we all need to educate our doctors a little more so that they understand what we deal with every day Thanks Penny

    Hi Karen I live in Nanaimo too and have found it very difficult to eat out. I will let you know if I find a good place to have a gluten free meal. Just thought I should mention....before you eat sour cream you should check the ingredients. Some sour cream has gluten in it. I found an organic sour cream at Lifestyles in Victoria that has no additives and...
