    Oranges and other acidic fruits cause my intersticial cystitis to flare and give me mouth sores. It is probably the acid that is bothering him. I take prelief to neutralize acid in foods. I take this with all foods, but never touch oranges or tomatoes.

    Have you gone yet? Where exactly in Boston.? I am in Newton all the time visiting my boyfriend.

    It sounds to me like trying the gluten free diet showed Sam that she did have gluten intolerance. Look at how her symptoms are disapearing and how much better she feels. Welcome and please ask lots of questions.

    Chronic ear infections in children can be the first sign of candida(yeast overgrowth). All the antibiotics can trigger this since they kill all the good bacteria as well.

    This is also a sign of candida overgrowth.

    I just got a nice one from Badger Balm. I think it was only 7.95

    Alopecia can happen suddenly or take a while. Shampoo,lotions, etc. do not have to say wheat. I would check on a gluten listing site for products that are safe, or actually call the company. I use Giovanni and Shakai, both confirmed safe by the company and all natural. Has your daughter had a illness about 3 months ago? Illnesses can trigger Alopecia...

    It is not possible to have celiac from 8 months to 8 yrs. If you were diagnosed at 8 months you still have it. You may have had a remission it your later childhood, but you should be gluten free.

    A friend of mine's son has been diagnosed with Tourettes syndrome, OCD and ADHD. A few years back she had some alternative allergy testing done that showed dairy allergy. She did not follow through with taking this out of his diet. I thought I had heard that these things can all be caused by gluten/casein intolerance. I talked to her about this and encouraged...

    It sounds like Alopecia. My son had this and lost half his hair. We ended up using a natural product with essential oil called Kalasol and it grew his hair back. Hair loss can be caused by gluten, but it says your daughter is now gluten free. The other thing I know of that can cause hair loss is hypothyroidism. If you get her checked, make sure they don...

    Red Sox Rule! Anyway since we are talking about stadium food, I am going to Fenway next week. Does anyone know if the hood ice cream they serve is gluten free?

    I think the menu does say to order without grill baste.

    My doctor told me that you can feel your heartbeat in your abdomen. I feel this to sometimes especially before bowel movements.

    Yes, detox is possible when you stop gluten. I was nauseous for a month!

    Please don't fall for Activia commercials. This is non organic yogurt with sugar. It will not help you. Use an organic plain yogurt with live cultures. Any yogurt with sugar will only feed any yeast overgrowth you may have.

    Make sure your coconut oil is raw and unrefined.

    Are you sure your UTI's aren't actually intersticial cystitis. Are they actually finding bacteria each time? IC is a autoimmune illness that causes the bladder to feel as if you have an infection without actually having one. It can come and go or be present all the time. Lots of foods can make it feel worse, especially acidic or aged foods. Mine actually...

    Do chlorella and chloryphil do the same things? Are they similiar. Someone recently told me to take chloryphil for detox, but I keep reading stuff about chlorella.

    How far is this place from Southwestern Mass near Springfield??

    I go to a few Red Sox games every year and always eat the popcorn with no problems. I always bring a lara bar or other gluten free bar just in case I need some protein.

    Another good product that lots of people have had success with is Threelac (not the same as Theralac). You can read about it on line. Also you need to stop sugar (even fruit for a while).

    Have you looked into Candida overgrowth. This is very common in celiacs and can look very similiar. There are 100's of symptoms it can cause, including the ones you listed. I urge you to read more on line.

    T4 is usually not helpful for Thryoid, even though it is routinely prescribed. Please read info on either Dr. Gina Honeyman website or Dr. Lowe.com. Armour or Cytomel is the best way to go. I also don't know how good it is to just switch from Armour to synthroid. You can probably do long distance consulting with Dr. Gina or Dr. Lowe. I do this. They...

    The normal for the US is extremely low. In Japan it should be over 550. So. 570 is on the low side. My doctor said even my levels of 620 may not mean I am utilizing the B-12 properly. He said there is no harm in doing injection or sublingual, because you can't overdose.

    Easy bruising can be caused by low platelets. I have chronically low, but not dangerously low platelets, and bruise very easy. Get your platelets checked. They should be about 150,000. Mine are around 110,000- to 130,000. No treatment required, but I need to watch out for heavier periods, or bleeding gums, or any bleeding that does not stop easily.
