  1. I'm trying to find the very first topics I posted. I tried searching for them through the search functions, as well as looking for them through my profile but couldn't find them.
  2. Save some of your chinchilla's current pellets when it's time to switch with new ones in case she doesn't warm up to them quickly.. You can then give her mixed feeds until she eats them! (you probably already know that!) I was planning on doing the same thing through pet stores.. no other way. If all fails, Soot (my bun) will be loving his new fresh veggie...
  3. The food industry needs to consider so many changes, but they sadly don't care as much about people's health as much as increasing production ;-(
  4. To test if I react to them, and that's the only way to be able to tell. I don't know if you're reacting or not but the only way for you to know is to do an elimination diet like me. I ate nothing but meat and green vegetables for a week. When I started feeling that I detoxed, I added a food back to my diet and tried it for three days, then added a new one...
  5. Thanks so much to you and your friend :-) I'll consider this recipe a treasured "secret" ;-) I won't be able to try it for three more weeks though. Decided to cut oats for a month (based on recommendation)
  6. "Ryegrass should not be confused with rye, which is a grain crop." Thanks Skylark :-)
  7. From my experience people can completely surprise you. My aunt who's always been so sweet to me tried her worst to force me to eat chicken that was sitting on a piece of bread because she believed it was all in my head, while a friend who's basically a know-it-all control-freak and never heard of gluten was completely understanding and utterly supportive...
  8. Just a short update about my bun's food. I emailed the company producing his hay asking what types of grass it contains, and here's their reply: "Our hay contains stuff that grows on leys (grassland), such as grass of meadow fescue, perennial ryegrass and timothy. So no grains." Unless I'm allergic, the ryegrass with no grains should be safe right?
  9. You have no idea how glad I am to read that. Thanks so much for sharing your experience, you've made my day and put my mind to ease :-) The best way to deal with the bun's pellets is by gradually replacing them with a variety of fresh veggies until I can get my hands on the pellets kareng provided a link to. Pellets make only 20% of his diet so it won...
  10. A question that pops up though. Although I've been having symptoms (not as severe as before), and amenorrhea was the major problem I had from ingesting gluten, I still got my period last month. I thought that even the smallest trace can cause full-blown reactions.. so why did I get a period! Could it have been a one time fluke
  11. my bun LOVES being pampered by eating from our hands so I touched them all the time. I also gave him some to munch on while I brushed him on my lap. They're all over the place. I'm upset at myself for not checking, but I wiped most of the surfaces that could have been a source of cc (light switches, knobs, the sofa) and hope it's under control now.
  12. thanks so much for this link kareng. I'm sure Im can find a pet store willing to start distributing these. I didn't think about possible cc from hay either as I thought it was mostly timothy. Sheesh! Thanks again :-)
  13. Hi all. My bun's pellets contain wheat X( I checked everything in the house but completely missed them. They've probably been CC the whole house. I'm feeling devastated. This has obviously been the cause of all my symptoms. I blamed it on so many things and even thought I was imagining the symptoms at some point. I put myself on this elimination diet thinking...
  14. Why are you starting the diet? Did you get diagnosed or you suspect you're intolerant? If you're suspecting it, it might be better to go to a doctor first to get a diagnosis before going on the diet.. because doing the the diet first means you will have to eat gluten again to get positive diagnosis if you ever end up needing the doctor, which could be very...

    ARCHIVED Coming Appointment

    Thanks. I'll put together a family history :-) Knowing what to ask is why I'm posting here.. What type of questions do you wish you asked at the time?

    ARCHIVED Coming Appointment

    It seems I'm getting that appointment with a new doctor soon, but I'm worried about being sent home for the third time while being told, and I quote "eat less bread and pasta and you'll feel better" without even asking what I eat. It would be really nice to get some heads up and tips on how to convince them to take me seriously in case the doc is as horrible...
  17. I'm an illustrator too! :-) Well.. illustrator in the making, to be more accurate. Do you have an online gallery?
  18. this is not a very good fix because it might produce errors, but you could try copying english information off a page and then using google translate so she can read it in spanish. That or asking a friend who can speak spanish to translate for you?
  19. Really sorry you're feeling poorly :-( Xoxoxo Maybe it was CC at a public place.. You were out at the park, and someone (maybe a child with a biscuit or a sandwich) and touched a spot before you did. This is something that we risk every time we leave the house, but we live with this imperfection in our lives because otherwise we won't be able to have lives...
  20. When I got glutened drinking a lot of water to get everything out of the system asap was recommended to me. Hope it helps, and hope your symptoms disappear quickly
  21. Yeah the counter has been soaped.. but the fridge shelves (as well as the things that were on them and washable) I only took out and rinsed with hot water. Was that not enough :-O
  22. I'm off all sugar. Really good suggestion on the berries though, thanks :-) I was thinking of adding rice next but I think it's better to start with fruit... Which makes me wonder, when I add berries, means I can have all berries? or all fruits?
  23. Nope no grains.
  24. I mean cleaning surfaces as if rats have been there... If a rat was in my kitchen I'd soak it in chlorine! I think its enough to just clean with water
  25. A new question popped i my head, for anyone with experience in this.. whether it's my thyroid or lack of iron/b12.. should I be taking easy when I'm experiencing muscle fatigue or can I go on doing as I please on my bicycle :-D
