  1. Richard, thank you for replying. I am not sure what "DH" is tho I hope you'll write back and let me know. Thanks
  2. Oh My Golly Goodness Folks...... YOU ARE TERRIFIC !! I'm appreciative and open and willing to listen to any thoughts you've got for me and you've given me lots of good thoughts to ponder awhile. For Tarnalberry (hope I spelled that right!) ... I was not offended by your post at all, in fact your statement: It's doable. Not easy. But...
  3. I was diagnosed with gluten-intolerance a few years ago. I have tried on various occasions, never longer than 3 days at a time, to stop eating gluten. When I stop, I am amazed & pleased that my digestive symptoms (diarrhea, bloating, gas, floating stools, etc) improve. You would think that that would be motivation alone to go on a gluten-free...
  4. Just wanted to say that I appreciate the responses to my post. Its hard going through in the beginning. But you all know that I've decided to go gluten-free.. or at least as gluten-free as I can with my so-far limited knowledge. Its been a good 3-4 days since I've had anything blatently gluten-filled. I cant say I feel any better yet. But if I...
  5. Jnkmnky, A thousand thank-you's ! I hadnt found this on the website yet.. thanks for pointing it out. I know I need to eat more natural foods.. its just that I've still got a pantry full of food to decide what to do with. I actually have been doing good for 3 days now. My biggest downfall is bread and I havent had any. I hope to go to...
  6. I am so very new at this gluten-free thing. I go to read a label and its got a bazillion chemicals/things in it that I havent got a clue whether its gluten-free or not. Is there a place I can go, or here in this thread to find a list of safe companies for foods/cosmetics/health care products etc so that this all wont be so over-whelming for me? Please...
  7. hmm now I'm wondering.. I understand to continue eating gluten IF I did a biopsy... but .. should I stop eating gluten or not if I have the additional tests Kaiti indicated above.. I'm considering having them one month from now. Help please if ya can
  8. Kaiti Thank you so much for the information regarding further testing.. I didnt know about that and your opinion on biopsies.. this is exactly what I need to hear .. anything anyone has to say about this.. and yes I have been reading that gluten encompasses not just wheat but rye, barley, and oats.
  9. Thanks Richard I dont know if there is celiac in my family. My grandmother had colitis and my brother has it--colitis, and my mom had diverticulitis while she was still alive. I myself was misdiagnosed at one point with Crohn's disease. I was later correctly dx'd with peptic ulcer disease which I've had for 21 years. I believe that was taken care...
  10. Hi everyone, I'm new here. Nice to meet everyone I've had stomach troubles for a good 25 years now (I'm 38). I had stomach surgery 6 yrs ago and have had many health probs come along since then..kidney infection resulting in 85% loss of kidney function in right kidney, and kidney stones. My other symptoms are depression getting worse and worse,...
  11. Oh I'd LOVE both lists, zipped is fine. I'm so new to all of this. Bloodwork numbers are high. I'm rather scared actually..it all seems overwhelming. Knowing these products would be a godsend. Thanks in advance! anodyne poeticpenpal@hotmail.com
