    No but I had been gluten free for months before some weeks of glutening for the test. Yeah my grandmother told me it was positive but admitted she eats what she wants and wont go back to that doctor because she knows he wants to tell her she needs to be gluten free

    So I finally discovered, after several months of trying to keep myself on a gluten free diet, that my grandmother tested positive for celiac disease. My test was negative so I guess that either means I have not developed full blown celiac yet or that the test was blunted by being mostly gluten free for so long idk. It is all the encouragement i need because...

    Okay so I have learned how to make this despite no recipes to be found. I have one problem though. My pasta is too sweet. The flour is too sweet. I am using arrowhead and it definitely tastes sweet. Anybody know a good brand that does not have a bitter aftertaste because the oils have gone rancid. Any help would be appreciated.

    I just want to say that people should be able to come on this forum and express how they are feeling and get support not abused. I think perhaps some of those who dont have more complex issues or who are much farther in recovery have forgotten what it felt like in the beginning. If anything, newbies should know it will be a struggle at first. If everyone...

    What brand coconut water do you use Lady? I tried some one time and it was disgusting. Maybe it is because I used to live in Hawaii and know what fresh coconut off the tree tastes like idk

    Exactly! Does that mean it is safe though? I mean Many things do not have ingredients that contain gluteny items but if you prepare it on the same surface you flowered with wheat flour somebody is gonna get zonked I wanted to add that I am not speaking about whole foods but prepared and processed foods and sauces, etc.

    Marc49 First off the fact that the thread was entitled Im Done bears no significance to whether it was appropriate to come on a thread with someone who feels as if they want to give up saying that they are obsessed and implying that they were sick because they were obsessive about their health. I already know what ANA is by the way. Obviously you typed...

    Am I the only one who sees this and says, "Haha Just another way of trying to deceive and poison us by avoiding saying this product is gluten free". Am i wrong? It just smells fishy to me. Seems to me that they say this so they do not have to make sure that the particular product is not contaminated according to regulations. What I am asking is, "Should...

    Wow Marc49. I find your post totally useless and disrespectful. Perhaps the fact that five days a week I spend a third of my day at work means I am a workaholic. The word obsession implies that I give unrelenting and undeserved attention to what is going on in my body. I only have one body, one life and when what is going on with my body impairs my ability...

    thx gatita that makes me hopeful i got a whole slew of tests done and we will see what happens with them. I am supposed to get the results for CBC, Tryptase (whatever that is), ANA, celiac panel (half the cost at 300), and some others... I really hope it reveals something. If not,, I will next get checked for an biointestinal imbalance or infection. I also...

    Does anyone by chance have any recipes for homecooking deli turkey? I do not have a smokehouse by the way so baking will have to be part of the means to an end.
  12. Razzle Dazzle Brazell
    Well that makes me feel better. I am at over two thousand because I had to buy all this kitchen equipment in an attempt to expand my diet by making my own of everything, condiments and deli meats hopefully, sauces and then just getting my own of things to prevent from getting sick using my mom's stuff. I guess it is expensive to set up a kitchen anyway let...

    gasp I think the millet probably got me. That stinks because I found millet to be the best in frying breaded items. I dont bread all the time but still. I went kinda low sat fat when I found eating too much red meats or cashews made for foul smelling and floating pale eliminations. My color has returned to normal now. I used to fry a lot in coconut oil though...

    i eat eggs, rice grits, or buckwheatmeal in the mornings. Lunch is usually baked chicken or sauteed turkey, baked turkey loin. vegetables are broccoli, cauliflower, summer squash, green beans, potatoes from time to time. I eat mostly lean protein except the past couple of weeks i have been having quite a bit of baked goods like rice bread, breaded chicken...

    I think I will just cough up the cash and get a bloodwork for different intestinal infection agents. I guess I gotta do what I gotta do. I am just afraid that it will be an endless and futile chase that only results in mounting debt.

    No diabetes screened for that regularly all my life because my grandmother has it and I used to be overweight and had a sedentary lifestyle. Blood Sugar is always good fasting or otherwise. I never even became borderline. My symptoms include: abdominal swelling and extreme fatigue, brain fog, itchy and burning, sore scalp, pain in the back of my head...

    Thanx for the encouragement. My problem is that all I crave now is carbs and sugar and im still losing weight. I went low carb for a while and felt immensely better until I started a more physically demanding job. Since I started it I cannot stay away from carbs and sugar. I still think I have candida and I dont have hope it is conquerable. It seems it is...

    I feel so depressed right now and I am resolved to give in and accept things for how they are meant to be. I get sick now anytime I have carbohydrates and sugars. It just progresses to more and more complicated diet. Well call me an addict or a bafoon but I cannot live my life with no carbohydrates and no sugars and you know what...I was not made to live...

    Thanks to the both of you for your encouragement. Tried to post sooner but had problems with replying so I gave up. My brother is psycho...literally. He has gone crazy and there is no talking to him. It is like talking to a drunk. If i get stern he could fly off the handle and punch a hole in the wall or who knows what. Not being able to assert myself with...

    I swear if anybody in myhouse eats my food one more time I am gonna go to the store and buy my own refregerator, nuwave cooktop and nuwave oven. I will fix all my stuff in my room. They just don't care but them eating my food means there is a day I go without supper. I can't just go to a snack machine or just fix a microwave dinner. All my food is budgeted...

    Merry Christmas guys!

    haha! You guys crack me up!!

    @ Irish: You are just like me then. I like to buy stuff for the kitchen over clothes and what not. Of course, I have lost a hundred pounds and buying clothes just to lose more weight is not that fun. I would rather buy kitchen supplies to help me fill out my size 8 pants. That is small enough for me. Besides, it is always expensive to set up house and home...

    Hmmm...in that case, I may go ahead and buy that meat slicer so I can make fresh luncheon meat. I sure do miss sliced turkey and turkey bacon but cannot find any that I do not react to. I am so glad to have an affirmation as to what was causing all my other reactions, but my diet has been so all over the place in this last six months and I am looking forward...
  25. Razzle Dazzle Brazell
    Oh my gosh I have been totally splurging to buy all of the gluten free cooking supplies and devices I convinced myself I need to expand my diet. It is completely justifies also in that I waited until it was cheapest which is right now on everything of course. Good thing I have five months with no interest. I bought a wonder mill junior deluxe, a cast iron...
