    [gasp] Yeah people these days just are not used to the thought process of actually considering what goes into the food and drinks they put in their mouths. That carries over to when they buy or cook for someone else. Honestly, it is kinda sad.

    Omg! I am right with you on that. The most rediculous thing for me is that my boss bougt me these candies, I love chocolate, that clearly say wheat, soy and milk on the front and she knows I am gluten free. As a matter of fact her grandson is gluten free and she is supposed to be too. She knows how sick I was in te past and ought to know not to give a thoughtless...

    I just thought I would chime in. Gluten Free junk and all ready made processed foods and flours are expensive. Gluten Free living is not expensive. I eat gluten and corn free and all organic and spend an average of $6.00 a day on groceries, supplements included. That is breakfast, lunch and dinner for one person I tend to engorge on nuts and I eat a lot of...

    Man! I hope that does not happen here; I would be so disappointed.

    yeah i am just gonna stay away from any kind of yeast since we do not entirely know whether they cross breed or feed on one another. I have changed my diet so much for this thing and I have cleared up so quickly but my immune system is pretty much full steam and I got a cold again! It really has been extremely low effect though. I sneezed for two days had...

    Oh sorry it cut out what I was saying, it is almost like when I take the probiotic it releases endorphins and serotonin b/c I always feel great after taking it.

    One more day on nystatin and I expect to feel much better. I will be starting candex after that. I already feel immensly better. I can breathe much better. My tongue is almost completely pink again. I still do not feel confident to start grains anytime soon. I do not want to feed the infection before I feel ready. I am still on a lean meats and veggies diet...

    Well we will see. She did have the blood test done before they put her on prednisone this month. As bad as she is, I am certain that if it is caused by gluten, she must have a really high reaction and especially at her age it would take quite a while for her gut to heal. I may be wrong but it makes sense in my head that a month probably wont mean her gut...

    Hmm well honestly having these food sensitivities has only made me healthier. I eat all kinds of different things now. I might as well try that someday when I am no longer on the stric candida diet.

    Good news. My talk with my grandmother and aunt went well. She has an older gastro.. but from the questions I asked he seems to know what he is doing. They already did a celiac panel and they are going to redo a scope for celiac specific biopsies. They have her on prednisone already though; that somewhat concerns me as her scope is not until sometime in January...

    Really? Interesting goat cream alfredo sauce. Does it taste different?
  12. Razzle Dazzle Brazell
    Chicago sounds like a good place to be if someone is gluten free. Wow!
  13. Razzle Dazzle Brazell
    Yes I hope it goes well. I am going to talk to her this weekend. I know lymphoma can be caused by celiac because it is cancer of the immune system. I am actually hoping going gluten free will help her appetite. I know that Lymphoma can sit stagnant for a long period of time. She was diagnosed late in life and will more than likely liveout her old age. So...

    Well her oldest two daughters go with her to the doctor, My grandmother is almost like a big child. You have to hold her hand for just about everything besides cooking, never learned to drive or balance a checkbook and pay bills. So it is like asking her to affirm to a doctor what she wants done, she will not understand and she just would not do it. To get...

    So my grandmother, who has diabetes and lymphoma, is finally gotten so bad with keeping food in her gut that she is being tested for celiac. I just heard this yesterday. I am somewhat concerned that the fact she has been practically starving herself for so long would mean they may not get accurate results. I am hoping and praying that the test will come back...

    I have seen so many adds for that stuff that I never considered threelac. I figured someone is just trying to make a profit off my illness.
  17. Razzle Dazzle Brazell
    It just goes to prove that we have to be extremely careful no matter what.

    @Juliebove: That is a good source, Thank You. Dizziness seems very common. I know it says it can cause it but phew! @Shadow: Will definitely call her today and see if she says I must stop or continue with my medicine. I know Nystatin is toxic to the liver but isnt all medicine.
  19. Razzle Dazzle Brazell
    Wow! that is so horrible and rediculous. I wonder if she even has a food intolerance of any kind because her restauraunt sounds to be extremely frivolous and careless, especially for one that is specifically marketed for people with allergies and so on. Im sorry but what an idiot! I cannot begin to imagine. I probably would have yelled and screamed at her...

    I thought I would check with you guys to see if any of you who have taken Diflucan and Nystatin have experienced anything like what I have. I am extremely dizzy upon standing. I get so dizzy the room spins and I feel as if I am just gonna pass out. My blood pressure was 109/78 and heart rate 88 So nothing unusual there. I have been drinking lots of liquids...

    Keep looking! Do not give up. When I got this new doctor, I told her up front that I got tired of misdiagnosis all my life and described my indisputable symptoms. I did my research. I told her why I did not feel like something else because I had recurrent infections down below and she was skeptical but finally believed me when she checked. Some doctors...

    Thx I am using only kosher salt but I will definitely be checking up on whether I can eliminate the meat washes by going to local farmers. I am so excited to make it through the first few days of treatment. I am already feeling so much better. Die off is pretty brutal.
  23. Razzle Dazzle Brazell
    @ ncdave: yup. it has citric acid in it. it is definitely causing swelling but it is hella expensive so im trying to just live with it; there is no way I cann afford some custom medicine . I am not having the neurological symptoms to it thank God, no brain fog, just abd. swelling but what can ya do? @ JNBunnie: I think I will call my doctor up...
  24. Razzle Dazzle Brazell
    That is exactly how it is. I now see doctor's as my agents. If they will not do as I wish, they get the can. I have lost my trust in the medical system; so much so that I decided to back to school eventually to become a nutritionist. I want to work on the right side of healthcare. In my experience, integrated medical offices are the best. Doctors who use...

    @ Shadow: I can't imagine having to deal with gallbladder issues and celiac. I have no idea what a HIDA scan is lol hafta look it up. @JNBunnie: I tried a acidophilus but it gave me severe heartburn bo matter how much water I drank after taking it. If I can find a gluten and corn free probiotic, it would be great. @GFinDC: I never heard of that. I tend...
