  1. Floridian, I just got home from work...what a loong day. I'm sure yours has been much longer though. I just read all the posts. I just keep praying you guys will be safe. Are you guys all together now? Did you get your parents and in-laws? What do you guys do to get safe when the storm hits? Do you have a special place you go to...like one of those storm...
  2. Oh yeah...I knew I'd ate something bad last night because I started feeling like it was harder to swallow and was getting acid reflux again. I was getting moody and depressed too...along with a big belly. Today my tongue has a nasty coating and my mouth is DRY. I know moodiness, depression and bloating are normal with gluten. Anyone get difficulty swallowing...
  3. Floridian After reading the lastest developments I'm really worried for you and your family. I hope you have everything you need as far as food goes. I'll be thinking of you...I cant watch the news cuz I'll be at work. I'm worried if you lose power we wont know if you're safe. Thanks for posting the list of acidic/alkalizing foods. I think maybe...
  4. Thanks Jen. I lost 5 lbs. since yesterday.
  5. It was the Bay Bridge that got damaged...a section of it collapsed. In Oakland the Cypress Structure completely collapsed onto the bottom level...I think thats where most deaths occurred. I still remember seeing the pictures. It was really bad. Well guys..I didnt make it to work this morning. I cant believe it. I woke up, felt normal while I was in bed...
  6. Floridian, I'm really worried for you. When do they expect it to hit? Keep us updated. I'll be praying for you and everyone down there.
  7. I needed some hairspray today. I usually use Finesse unscented but it still has a strong smell that bugs me. I was spraying all the different brands in the store to see if any of them have little or no odor. I found one..(of course it was over $15)...the thing is its got Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein. Should I be worried? The finesse was gluten-free...it had hydrolyzed...
  8. Well I already survived one big one so I hope thats it for me in my lifetime. I think it was in '89. It was pretty damn scary. I dont wanna go through anything like that again! Hmmm...actually I forgot what year it was in but I remember the day Oct. 17th...the Giants were playing the A's in the world series. It was the Battle of the Bay. Were you here...
  9. LOL...Guess I can add pumpernickel to the list of stuff I avoid. I got enough symptoms already...dont need to add to them!

    ARCHIVED Casein

    My Enterolab was negative for casein (9). I had already been off dairy 4 months before testing so dont know if it would have been positive had I been consuming it. I react to dairy so I'm off of it regardless.
  11. Julie, Great idea...those are the exact crackers I've been eating w/out noticeable problems. Floridian...if you can find them they would be perfect. I get them at Whole Foods. I just eat the plain unsalted...it only has brown and white rice flour. I've also had the rice sesame...same ingredients + sesame. They are made in a facility with wheat but so far...

    ARCHIVED Casein

    Yes, its in all milk products, cheese, yogurt, etc. Even the stuff thats labeled non-dairy like Cool Whip contains casein. Here are a couple links. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link
  13. You could also get pears. Pears are great...I love em. I'm not sure about eating a raw potato but you could get zuccinni and cucumbers. Those can be eaten raw and they'll last about a week.
  14. Jersey, Those actually have the highest amounts of sulfites in them...besides wine...which comes from grapes. I was gonna post this on the OMG thread/book (as Mango04 calls it) but here it is. Its a good article on sulfites from Living Without Magazine...I love this mag. by the way. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Oh...Jersey...
  15. I'm still cracking up imagining that!!
  16. I think my mouth sores are coming from sulfites. Thats funny that I'm reading that some of you get a coated tongue with it...I always get that too. Another thing is the taste buds on the back of my tongue swell up...they can get pretty big. I get both black and white blisters....sometimes they're only tiny dots and sometimes big blisters. They appear...
  17. Wow Floridian...I never even thought about this. I wonder what I could stock up on since I cant eat canned stuff right now?? We dont get hurricanes here but we do get earthquakes. Since most of the stuff we're eating is perishable it makes it kind of difficult. I'm thinking along the lines of what Julie suggested. Canned tuna, canned fruits...
  18. Hmm....seems like it can vary in when they show up. A week later...I would have never thought. I think mine are showing up maybe 1-2 days later. It bugs me when I cant figure out the exact culprit though. Julie, mine go away really fast too...the longest they'll stick around is like 2 days but usually gone in a day....sometimes less. For about ...
  19. Julie, thats my thinking as well. I dont hold grudges and I think life is too short for all that negative energy. Try explaining it to all of my exes' girlfriends though. None of my exes are honest w/ their girlfreinds because none of the girlfriends can understand why we are friends. None of them like me. I think the one that I went to the movies...
  20. If you are someone who gets mouth sores or blisters how soon do they show up after you've eaten something bad? Is it the same every time or does it vary? Trying to figure out where my blisters are coming from.
  21. Floridian, I looked at the diagram on the page and my pain is exactly where it shows the ovaries. Its on both sides...still hasnt gone away. How long does ovulation last? Are the intestines located here as well cuz the doctor said there is lots of stuff in that area including the intestines. I dont believe her...I know its my ovaries.
  22. I'm going to be more careful with the disclaimers now. The apricots were the ones made on shared equipment so I'm definately nixing those. I think I'll keep eating the crackers (made in same facility as wheat) since I didnt get any noticeable symptoms from them. I know they dont cause me any head pressure, brainfog or blurred vision. I think those symptoms...
  23. Yeah...everyone I've talked to says they can hurt...everyone except the freakin doctor who just wanted to know how I got songs to play on my cellphone. I know my body and I know what I'm feeling. OK...well I'll rephrase that and say I'm learning about my body and I know what I'm feeling ain't normal. I had to change my statement since 3 days ago...
  24. It was actually the best thing that we broke up...I was in the relationship almost 10 yrs but kinda feeling like I was missing something. It was more like a great friendship all along but no romance. 2 months after we broke up I got together with someone and found everything I'd been missing...but we werent great friends. There was alot of insecurity and...
  25. I would have to be pretty bad off to willingly put gluten into my mouth. I cant see that I'd ever be that desperate but thats pretty much the only way I could see myself doing it...if I had no choice.
