  1. :lol:
  2. Jane, IMG_2601 looks exactly like mine does now, except mine gets more dry skin around it.
  3. Even my doctor thought whether I go gluten-free or not was up to me. Doctors are not always right and not always wrong when it comes to celiac disease. Being gluten-free will not harm you in any way even if you're not intolerant, but if you happen to have celiac and don't feel any symptoms the damage will still be done.
  4. Well.. you can always go on being undiagnosed. I'm undiagnosed but I'm pretty sure I have celiac. No one can stop you from living gluten-free if it's the only way you're feeling better. I myself decided to stop going after an official diagnoses once I found out my thyroid "might" have started being effected. I don't want risk any permanent damage to it...
  5. Welcome herestohealing and congratulation on figuring out what was slowing you down :-) As the others said you'll be slow for a while longer but you'll find that in a few months you'll start feeling like a new person. Hang in there!
  6. 1. No, you can't kill gluten by cooking it. 2. You can eat rice if you have celiac. 3. You don't have IBS, you have celiac, but you seem to also lack the ability to accept that. 4. Please don't feel sorry for me because I don't eat gluten, feel sorry for yourself because you can't imagine your life without it. 5. I'm tired because I haven't been...
  7. I thought that a thread containing a collection of the different shapes and forms of DH could be helpful to people looking for something to compare their own rashes with. So go ahead and post your rashes here to help others find a point of reference. Please add associated symptoms and a short history. I am however doubtful of this idea being a good one...
  8. I actually have not seen one that looks exactly like mine yet.. which is why I can still get the occasional doubts about it really being DH. I'm a little less doubtful now that we found out my thyroid might be acting out. I should start a thread where all members can add pics of their rashes for anyone looking for reference actually. I think mine would...
  9. The only difference between my rash and yours is that mine gets a little more dry and the popped blisters don't get yellow. They used to get bloody when I used to itch them but they don't itch so much anymore. I'm also sensitive to sals so mine can surface even without the gluten, but to answer your question I would say it is better now because I know...
  10. My dear he's the one who should be doing the gluten-free cooking for both of you, to help out because you're obviously having a hard time keeping up with everything. A real man supports his wife through thick and thin and doing all the house work when she's down is part of it. This dude you're with belongs in a cave. If I were you I'd dump his greedy...
  11. Do you have any other dresses which fit the occasion or can you borrow one from a close friend or relative. Since your plans have been tampered with you can do some compromises and save what you can of this day for the sake of enjoying it. Might not be the outfit you were planning to wear but you would probably still look good in a different dress that doesn...
  12. looks almost identical to mine!
  13. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
  14. In my own experience the expert is the one who lived it and figured it out, not the one who read about it and spreads it around. Thanks for this IH :-)
  15. The second TSH scan was 5 not 4.. but that's not too far off is it ;-) Gosh that must have been tough for you, but you proved to be the toughest one in the end IH :-) Well done! It seems that you've experienced the same type of aching burning sensation that I feel when I paddle.. Sometimes it just makes me want to screem out! My muscles can handle walking...
  16. I've been cycling (not hard-core but like back and forth to the market which is around 40-50 minutes of hill-type road) for around two years I think. I didn't mean the type of fatigue one would feel while working out, that I can handle. What I don't like is the burning sensation. The fatigue I feel comes after the workout and the next couple of days (around...
  17. I thought The same thing only to find out becoming gluten free was only the beginning. As you stated however,at least we know what the problem is and how to fix it and ita not fatal. we can also go to dieticians for help but the experience that exists here is all we need: )the members are like human celiac encyclopedias and not only do they communicate but...
  18. I got my blood tests today, and sadly, I did understand correctly, and was right about the doc not checking for vit and mineral levels in my blood. She checked for diabetes, hormones and the IgG level only. TSH was 4.something the first time and 5.1 the second time. IgG was 7 .. or maybe it was <7.. the paper is in the car and I'm writing from memory...
  19. My parents are the opposite. They live to make sure we're living right and are secure but they sadly did it through criticism. It might be possible they're both gluten-intolerant. My mom is short and can't gain weight even though she tries her hardest to, and my dad is bipolar, has diabetes, thyroid, rash, joint inflammation, and they both live on vitamins...
  20. Don't let this just simple chitchat! :-O It sounds like the perfect place for a vacation! You should establish it in Croatia or italy! I would definitely come to it every year!
  21. Thank you all and god bless you for all the hugs! I don't know what I would have done without you to turn to :-0 I decided to stop talking about any celiac related issues because she is convinced it's all in my head no matter what I say. It's actually a little better today since they loved the gluten-free pizzas I made them today! @love2travel, indeed...
  22. it didn't have any photos similar to mine
  23. I'm in complete agreement Bart! I'm supposed to be focusing on feeling better. Thanks for the hugs, I needed them :-)
  24. This post is totally worth the read lol :-D The dog and the pretzel! It's hard to say this but even dogs don't like our food options now ;-( I thought it was very cute anyway :-) Thanks for sharing it.
