  1. I had symptoms 30 years, had 5 babies and I haven't died yet. Infact, I am making improvements. Still, I hope you are getting ready for the diet and your procedure will be done really soon. I see it could be urgent at your weight. By getting ready for the diet I mean that you can be reading labels in your kitchen. Plan some new recipes. Read on...
  2. THIS IS FOR SUPER SENSITIVES ONLY: I have been avoiding restaurants. My immediate family goes in, I eat in the car. The immediate family thinks it is "My decision." I feel I am constrained to do it. This morning I got an invitation to Dad and Mom"s (possibly last) anniversary. I want to go, but even the smell of restaurants bothers me. Is it...
  3. I am grainless and don't anticipate using it ever again. I have been using nut flours and buckwheat and I really enjoy my food. Diana
  4. Hi Distressed, Your body sure does seem to be telling you something is wrong. I had fogginess and fatigue that did seem to be changed by gluten free and other things I did. Suppliments have been really helpful for me. One does have to spend some money to get quality ones. Do make sure that no form of wheat, barley, or gluten is in them. My supplements...
  5. I just heard Dr. David Hilden on WCCO radio, Twin Cities, MN. He felt If you had a swollen tongue you may have Celiac Disease. He felt that could cause mal-absorption of vitamin B 12. I was intensly interested since my tongue feels too big for my mouth sometimes. I am on B 12. I am not sure I am absorbing it. Date today. Sunday March 10,2013. ...
  6. I hope "healthy" will be feeling truly better soon. I first noticed Celiac symptoms atleast 30 years back. I lived a foggy and fatigued existense for that time. Six years back I had serious heart trouble. The heart trouble reversed when I took supplements my chiro recommended. I went gluten free a year ago. I went grain free 10 months ago. I went...
  7. I can't eat grains. I am glad that I am not eating them. I like to have my head clear.
  8. Welcome, *** I hope you will find answers too. Diana
  9. Were you gluten free when you did the celiac panels? They can false negative if you were. I hope you will overcome your current struggle. I hope you will find out what is wrong. I hope you will feel well again. I would encourage you to keep searching for answers. I am sorry it is not always easy and a smooth road to recovery. Diana
  10. Sometimes things seem worse, before they seem better. I hope you will be getting answers soon. Thanks for supporting him in this! Diana
  11. This seems to be going well. I especially like the part of being able to go gluten free now! Well, wishes to you, Positive. Diana
  12. Bekkaz, Sorry you have suffered so. I can understand the bloating forever thought. You are overwhelmed. You have started well by asking questions here. Do everything you know you must do, such as get rid of gluten in your diet. It sounds like dairy, chicken and corn also. Learn what you can from the forum. There are substitutes you can use...
  13. No, but you must follow a simalar diet: No wheat and other glutenous grains. I hope that will improve your health. Diana
  14. Oh, that's a blessing!
  15. Keep up the good work! Diana
  16. You might try looking up some grain free muffin recipes. I use nut flours and I think they turn out scrumptious. Maybe that would help satisfy the cravings. I hope you continue to feel well and that your diet will help with the diabetes also. Diana
  17. I had one miscarriage and the safe birth of 5 children over about 10 years when I had untreated celiac. Since then, I didn't conceive and my last biological child was born in 1997. My age is 49.
  18. I have hope that you are coming to a deep root of your problem. I am happy for that!. I think many hear consider a positive biopsy conclusive. They usually verify blood results with biopsy and hope one or the other will be positive if gluten is the problem. I would try to get your son tested as soon as possible. Welcome, and GET WELL *** Diana
  19. I am sad too. I do hope that it will work out for you. I used to be in a volunteer organization that would give such rides. It was local in Central MN. A hospital should know of such an agency if it exists where you are. A friend of mine has a medical driving business. You can pay such a business to drive you. My friend comes and goes from hospitals...
  20. I live in Oak Park, MN in centeral MInnesota. I regularly shop: The Good Earth Coop in St. Cloud. Lakewinds Minnetonka (I am looking forward to there new Lyndale Garden's location. I also know the coops in Cambridge, St. Peter, and several others. I went gluten free 10 months back and finding I am super-sensitive. I now have a clear mind (usually...
  21. Did you check for more food intolerances? Did you try pancreatic enzymes and probiotics? Do you read every label? Do you make your food from scratch? I know it is all hard when you're tired. Please keep up. My head cleared around the 6 month. It could have been time, or it could have been new suppliments, or rotational diet plan. It seemed to me...
  22. i hope the procedure will be easy and full of helpful results. Diana
  23. Maybe the gluten problem was causing the acne. My household has gone gluten free with me. Now, several of them break out with acne after they eat outside food.
  24. Stool test ideas: Get a 5 gallon bucket from a bakery (cleaned) and sit on that. Or place a garbage bag between the parts of the toilet. Under the seat and over the base. Hopefully, you can get the job done that way.
  25. I am so happy for you. Keep up the good work for your mother!
