Kassandra!! I was just gonna ask Carla how you're doing. Glad you're having more energy on your non-comatose days! Sounds like your body really needs the rest. I agree....better to know about the metals now. Even if you cant do anything about them right now....you still have the benefit of knowing...as opposed to not knowing and just never... -

I get that chemical "burning" feeling too....not so often anymore though. I've had to change alot of things in my environment....all the cleaners and detergents are chemical free. I dont use anything that is "scented" either....dont even have the scented candles or strong potpourri out. -

Awww...sorry it was a disappointment Lisa. Did you get to try it though? How does it work? At least you had the will power to leave them alone. I couldnt do it....heck no....I'd be all over that guac. Same with Ketotifen...the two main side effects were sleepiness and weight gain. I was soooooo hoping for the weight gain..... -

Wow...its pretty shocking what comes up when you do a search on "GlutenEase". This is my first time in "Silly Land" (or whatever its called)....and I have to say...I find alot of it to be offensive and disrespectful. Here, all this time I thought you guys were having some decent fun. Come to find out alot of these laughs come at the expense of other... -

Whatever it is I'm sure I've tried it. I think I've tried just about every bag of corn chips they carry. Some are better than others but I dont actually tolerate any to the point that I can sit and eat half a bag. I can only eat a little bit. I've tried the ones without salt and without lime....but yeah...they gotta have corn and some type of... -

Nancy, stick around....we can figure this stuff out. It doesnt matter how much you like the Dr.....sometimes you just have to move on if they arent knowledgeable in the areas that you need the most help.

Ugh. How much longer April?? Seems like its been weeks! Andrea, I'm glad everything went well.

Yeah....thats what I figured. I havent had fruit juice in a couple years....but with me there is just no "easing" into it. I tried...next thing I knew the bottle was gone...and now theres a new one in the fridge. I used to be pretty decent at math. Something happened to that part of my brain with all this toxicity...math just totally freaks... -

No need to apologize. Unfortunately I cant join the beer party....its all off limits for me...whether its got lots of gluten, "fermented" gluten, or no gluten at all. Its still gonna mess me up for days. I might still crash the party though. My post isnt signaling any particular person(s) out. I'm simply pointing out a general intolerance... -

Oh...I forgot to mention "adventurous". Purposely consume gluten in the form of a communion wafer and this is very bad. However, if you drink a Bud Light...different story...you're an adventurous soul. I dont know whether to laugh or cry. Ok...I'm laughing...its total hypocrisy...gotta love it!

I have to say that I'm constantly amazed by the folks on this board. Well.....maybe flabbergasted is a better word...or even better...I'm freakin bumfuzzled right now!

ARCHIVED Can Someone Explain Blood Test Results To Me?
Rachel--24 replied to Bridy's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It means that they are testing for two different types of antibodies. IgE antibodies indiacte a "true" allergy....this is the type that most people are familiar with. IgG antibodies indicate a sensitivity or intolerance to that food. These types of intolerances can go away and are usually caused by some underlying issue (such as leaky gut). IgG reactions... -

No reason to be embarrassed....this is just an unusually looooong thread. Trust me....LOTS of people have replied to the corn posts. I'm actually lots better now and I do have alot of things figured out since the beginning of this thread. I'm a work in progress. Anyways, if you have any questions on navigating the board....feel free to ask. -

Hi Shelly My posts about corn are kind of outdated. My issues were not actually caused by corn....it was one of many things that got ruled out along the way. I actually got worse when trying the corn-free diet. I'm not dealing with grains very well because of other underlying issues.
