    I live in Minneapolis now and the gluten-free offerings are abundant and I know where all of them are but am now moving to Indianapolis and am hoping someone knows the best places to go, including pizza and bakery type places if there are any. Thanks in Advance!

    I a copying this down, thanks! I never really learned to cook (diagnosed right before college) and I'm trying now, this one inspired me!

    I'm so sorry! And you are not alone. I posted last week about this same thing, you gave me deja vu! I thought I was buying the rice crust gluten-free Amy's spinach pizza and bought the WHOLE WHEAT one instead. Didn't realize it till I pulled the box out of the garbage after vomiting for 3 hours. I get delayed reactions so I didn't start throwing up till...

    Thanks for pointing me to the blogs! I've had celiac for 7 years...but am just starting to learn to cook and bake for myself. Sad huh? Bre

    I will add my 2 cents to distract myself from my horrible gluten poisoning.... I remember learning in med school about how the blood types have no relation to the digestive tract. The "evidence" the authors try to use is something about how the ABO antigens are picked up in the developing GI tract or something like that and they completely skew it and try...

    I am glad you are recovering. I felt pretty good yesterday apart from the D but this morning I had horrible "heavy" nausea, almost feels like I have a lead ball in my belly (still higher up abover my umbilicus and in the middle) and such a horrible feeling. It comes in waves and takes my breath away. Do you think baking soda would help at all in this situation...

    ARCHIVED Blood Type

    A+ here! I think this trend of Os might just be because that is the most common blood type....

    Hmm, are you allergic to Aspirin? IF you are I would think you would be allergic to the Pepto as well, but otherwise, it is SUPPOSED to make your stools dark. It even says so on the bottle and that is a temporary and expected thing. If you're not on a med that has this side effect and your stools are black/really dark that IS a sign of GI bleeding high up...

    I never get emails telling me when someone has replied in a threat I started or after I post in a topic I also don't get the notification. Frustrating! I tried to make sure my setting were correct, and I do believe I USED to get notifications when I posted. Thanks! Bre

    I am just starting (at the old age of 25, how pathetic) to get back into cooking and baking. I haven't done much since I was diagnosed as I went right into college after diagnosis and then med school where I dont' have TIME. But I getting inspired and I have bought some cookbooks but I wish they had pictures of the food like normal ones do. Any ideas? Or...
  13. bremac
    I am jealous that you can tell right away! I usually feel perfectly fine until 3-5 hours later when either vomitig or diarrhea and a horrible dizzy nauseated feeling comes out of seemingly nowhere...

    The D started today as someone predicted it would Not too bad though and I've been eating a bit, mostly jello and broth and applesauce and peppermint tea. My GI doc told me to take some Pepto Bismol and that actually helped my tummy pain a lot. And hopefully help with the D too! He said something about how the ingredient in it can actually help bind up...

    Not rambling! I actually feel kind of encouraged knowing other people have similar reactions, weird as that may sound! My D started today, oh joy...
  16. bremac
    Thank you for all the suggestions. I am not able to get out and find all these things and in all honesty probably wouldn't be able to prepare them all. But I DO have peppermint tea and I've drank that before and noticed it has tummy calming properties. I'll go make some now! Thanks again Bre

    That was so touching I am almost in tears. How sweet of you for helping your student and I think it's so wonderful how the class reacted.

    Hi, I only post on here about once a year so I apologize for barging in again. I have been gluten free due to diagnosed celiac for 7 and a half years now and I made a MAJOR booboo last night. I thought I was buying the Amy's Rice Crust Spinach Pizza but I got the WHOLE WHEAT one instead and somehow never noticed while I was preparing it and eating...

    I was diagnosed 7 and a hal years ago and rarely get accidentally "glutenated" but I make mistakes especially with cross contamination. I would say I am more sensitive now and have worse reactions. I tend to vomit and then have diarrhea...NICE But the more you heal and your villi start to come back, you will feel better and only get sick when accidents...

    If I do the throwing up deal before getting the D, I have trouble keeping anything at all down for several hours. Then I try Gatorade mixed with GingerAle or seltzer. And gluten free pretzels! My roommate bought me some the last time I got badly "poisoned" and they tasted good and they provide salt, which is good when you're dehydrated!
  21. bremac
    Yep. I emailed and called and was told I could bring in food for only myself. So I am just going to bring some gatorade and gluten-free pretzels to eat when I get whoozy (don't want to pass out in line for the roller coasters!!!) They said to explain to security about my diet and the guy on the phone said a letter from my doctor "wouldn't hurt" so I'm...
  22. bremac
    Thank guys! I think we're going to all bring our lunches (I'm the only gluten-free one) and go eat on the tailgate. They don't have a picnic area so I think that's our best bet. My doctor is writing me a note saying I need to have good with me at all times so I can bring a few snacks in. Oh, and in case anyone is wondering, you're allowed to bring water...

    I'm going there on Friday and I was looking at the website and it said no food is allowed into the park. My only other post-celiac disease park experience was Busch Gardens and they let me bring my own food in so I'm not sure what to do here. I sent an email asking about it and I might try calling them tomorrow but if you guys have any info I'd really appreciate...

    Anyone live in the Albany area? I have not met another celiac here and sometime I feel so alone.
  25. bremac
    1) going out with friends and trying to be "normal" and eat something 2) food shopping 3) expense of gluten-free food that doesn't even taste that good 4)having to explain all the time 5)cross contamination 6) how sick I get from #5 and wishing I could at least eat an oreo or something if I have to get sick 7) reading ingredients ALL THE TIME
