    Brizzo, I'm sorry to hear that you were glutened. It is frustrating! But, we pick up and move on and learn from ours/others mistakes. You might want to tell her to not use anything under any circumstance that has not been approved by you or that you don't know how it was prepared (cross contamination) or you won't eat it (and that sounds harsh but certainly...

    There is a PF Chang's in Atlanta. Also, Chick-Fil-A lists their gluten free items on line (all of these places depend on your level of comfort with cross contamination, but their fries are supposed to be fried in dedicated fryers) There are some other options that I never went to (I lived in Auburn, AL for two years, one of which was my first gluten...

    Hello and welcome to the board! We are happy to have you. I don't know much about diverticulitis (spelled with a V, not a . My grandmother has it, but I don't know much about it. I did a search on celiac.com and didn't find anything. Maybe someone else on the board has more knowledge. I'm sorry I can't be of more help. But I wanted to welcome you...

    Marlene, I am so terribly sorry that you are going through all this! I could sense the desperation in your posts. Unfortunately, we can symphathize all too well. I am sorry we are all in this; but I am happy you have posted and maybe we can help some. Please, please, PLEASE stop cooking two separate meals. There are so many naturally gluten free...

    From what I understand, Optimum Health used to be called York Labs and they were around for a long time...have been advertised on this site for as long as I can remember. here are some links on celiac.com about it: https://www.celiac.com/st_prod.html?p_prodi...-30106230005.1e https://www.celiac.com/st_prod.html?p_prodi...-30106230005.1e https://www...

    Hellman's Mayo is gluten free. Distilled vinegar is gluten free. Now, if you are reacting (which, you don't say that you are, necessarily), it is beyond the gluten free status; some people react to vinegar for other reasons. Also, you might need to be re-scoped....higher numbers for extended periods of time can be indicative of refractory celiac. I...

    Ana, Welcome to the board! I am happy you have found us. I just have a few minutes to write, so this will be short, but I wanted to get you some information. I'm not sure what else your doctor is looking for....you had the positive gliadin test---that is a marker for Celiac!!! What else was he expecting? The Celiac panel is to test for Celiac...

    hannahsue, have you been tested for eosinophillic disorders? I just learned about them (I have recurring issues beyond Celiac, long story) and am being tested for them. The reason that made me say this is that you said you have a high white blood cell count and I think that is related to it (but I am just learning). Either way, they are a family of diseases...

    Turtle, all I can say is that I'm sorry you are going through this...I wish I could do something to make it better and just all go away. I don't have any more advice other than what the others have already said; I just wanted to let you know I wish I could give you a hug. I hope it all works out. chrissy, I don't know about official wedding etiquette...

    we are happy you asked...nothing is off limits here! my husband always brushes his teeth and rinses before we kiss. we don't even kiss on the lips at all until he is safe (because I am extremely sensitive)....but it is something he is happy to do....bc what would make someone feel worse than making the one you love sick?

    Donna, I am so happy you are starting to make some progress, esp in liking this office and feeling comfortable with them..that makes such a big difference! But I'm sorry you aren't feeling too well tonight. Hope you get a good nights sleep and wake up feeling more refreshed. xoxo
