    Yes. I though my foods were special and all that jazz until I stopped to think only three items at my house have gluten in them. Everything I eat is not "special", it's normal. Only that I can't eat other things also considered normal. I feel a lot more alien about my diet when I am at school (because I don't eat at all there) and people are always...

    Much like Roda's son, nothing showed up in my tests. But it's still a fact I cannot eat gluten or else I will have reactions to it. If that's the same to you, you shouldn't need any tests to stay away. A lot of other people here had negative to their tests too. Forgive me if I sound harsh here, but I read it as if though you lack of diagnosis was sort...

    I think the bread quite explains what you are feeling And, yeah, I understand your frustration... Having to cook my own meals is taking its tool on me as well because I spend long hours starving because my school simply doesn't do gluten free not to mention I can't travel or go to a restaurant anymore. BUT I think the priority should be health, here...

    Meringue cookies and peppermint tea. Hmm...
  5. Persei V.
    Yeah, I am just worried... Anyhow, if the symptoms do persist my mum will take her to the doctor. Fingers crossed for they to pass soon.

    So... As you all know, I have lactose and gluten intolerance. My sister, the almighty lucky one, had neither. Only a lactose allergy which gave her flu-like symptoms and she never stopped eating lactose and dairy. Until 3 months ago, when she became lactose intolerant. And now her stomach has been cramping for three days straight and she can't eat, although...

    Tomato soup (recipe made by moi, but has tomatoes and rice, so a few people here can't eat it), a banana, a bar of soy chocolate with rice flakes, a tall glass of acerola juice and half a cup of coffee. I feel happy because I am full and my stomach does not grumble nor hurt.

    Oh well, I am the helpless newbie of the forums, but from what I've gathered, celiac tests are not always accurate. Which doesn't mean you should go gluten-free without a diagnosis. Maybe you should take her to an endoscopy and work with another possibilities meanwhile. I am not sure of how to proceed if the symptoms don't go away and your daughter remains...

    Baked potatoes in tomato and onion sauce. With loads of oregano.

    Brown rice, beans, lettuce and some awesome grilled fish spiced with my favorite condiment in the entire world, nutmeg.
  11. Persei V.
    Yeah, like everyone else, I think you do have something with gluten. And like everyone else, I want to remind about the set backs. I just got out of one, and it sucks because everything makes you sick, but, hey, sticking to gluten-free makes it better. Onward, my friend!
  12. Persei V.
    Nice to hear that Everything gets better eventually. Though I have cut my butter. I will miss her

    Some teas are able to calm down upset stomaches, however, I'm afraid the ones I know have not very pleasant tastes. I agree that you should have them as much distracted as possible, as well as having plenty of liquids to cope with D. Keep their diet healthy and light, as well, with things easy to digest.

    Well, cashews are plenty where I live because they are native and there are huge plantations of them around the corner (60Km away, I could just go there and steal some ) but insofar, I only ate cashews from facilities especialized in doing whatever they do with cashews so they are good to eat. This package came from a guy on the street. They are usually...
  15. Persei V.
    I've been ill for the last couple of days (damn you cashews, I trusted you) and now I think I'm recovering. My stomach is grumbling of hunger and stuff, and the last time I ate was 4 hours ago (three bites of apple, a thin tapioca), but I don't want to eat because I'm afraid I will get ill again. I see many people having so much worst than me, and I wonder...
  16. Persei V.
    I sort of kind of snuck an eletric stove inside the apartments of the hotels I travel to. And then I live of Coke, tapioca and Chocosoy (a brand of gluten and lactose free chocolate, which tastes absolutely normal). I also make my own coffee. Hmm, coffee... Anyhow, take your own food, surely! If there's barely nothing you can eat, they have to understand...

    I think I have another one here: "Eat without the fear of being happy!" ~> my mother "Think positive and everything will be alright!"~> my father who is in fact a doctor. At least he stopped telling me this after I decided to try a new restaurant in the very next day and I was really hungry, stuffed my face and got ill. Yeah, you go think positive...

    "There's clearly no gluten in it, how could you be glutened?" I know what you mean, unfortunately. I explain politely that there's no such thing as "clearly there's no gluten" and even if there isn't any gluten the food made me sick anyway so I'm not eating it again.

    Chicken breast, carrots and beet soup. With some brown rice thrown into the mix. A blessing to my empty and upset stomach.
  20. Persei V.
    Oh, I think I know how you feel. Especially the tightness in the back of the throat. Sucks But I always thought it was because I spent 9 years of life sick all the time so I basically hate feeling anything "funny" on my stomach. I also panic a bit. I didn't think it anemia related... Funny, my iron levels were cool the last time I was checked, but...

    I explained to her about CC already. It's not like she doesn't know there's a risk. But I will try to explain again. And meanwhile, thank God I saved some money... Thank you for the kind responses!
  22. Persei V.
    I tried to make those one banana two eggs pancake and ended up sick. And the pancakes were just awful because I could tell the taste of the banana from the taste of the eggs. Just perfect.
  23. Persei V.
    She's not helping at all. Once I hinted at the idea of going gluten free after two months between ill and underfed (juice fast when I stayed the whole day at school and had swimming classes), she was the first one to jump in and say I was probably "overreacting" and "it isn't that serious", although the last time I was that ill, I had undiagnosed lactose...
  24. Persei V.
    Oh, damn. I checked the package again and yeah. Glucose syrup, although they don't say exactly where it comes from. So I will basically starve around at my school. Thank God I didn't eat them much (only once a month or so, in cases of emergency) and still have some tolerance for gluten.
  25. Persei V.
    I'm with the "virus" theory here. Two weeks and getting sicker by the minute means it's something you cannot heal like it is when the small intestines are damaged by gluten. Seeing a doctor, though, would be the best thing to do.
