  1. Just to note, some sources say to avoid raspberry leaf tea for the first or first and second trimester if you have a history of miscarriage. There seem to be some contradictions on the quick internet scan I did, so you would want to be sure of sound medical advice which you are happy using if you want to try it. There are some contraindications for the...
  2. Hi bjb Welcome to the board, great you have decided to go gluten-free for life now. It can be confusing and overwhelming to start with, but it does get better as you get used to it and find out what you can and can't eat yourself. From what I read here, many people do fine with regular gluten-free foods as part of their diet. It can be wise to limit...
  3. I have been on a whole foods, paleo type of diet since January, following a 'whole 30' elimination. I feel fantastic, have worked out a whole stack of food intolerances on top of gluten and lost 25 pounds. I have about 50lbs more to go, but I have noticed that my skin is starting to look a bit papery and saggy under my chin (s!) and on my tummy. Does...
  4. Em, sorry to hear of your loss. My old mog was 18 when she went, but that didn't make it any easier. She had liver failure too, they do tend to need to go quickly then. Hugs x
  5. Hi marco It could be that the bar was made on a machine that previously had gluten on. It will be cleaned, but some people are very sensitive. Cadbury should be able to tell you this. Check the Dairy Milk too. It could be that you have other food intolerances, you could try a food diary, where you record everything you eat inc all ingredients, and mak...
  6. Yesterday was bright sunshine, and sweater not coat weather (Apart from the hailstones)
  7. Brilliant! I am NCGI (apparently!!) and I am in for life too - feels good doesn't it? I have had all sorts of symptoms resolve since September, and even more since January, when I started a 'clean' paleoish diet Mw
  8. The magnolias are out this week, and camelias well in bud. WoooHoooooo We get sea mizzle here
  9. OK, not got quoting yet, but working on it... Unfunny maybe, but true!! I think it is a money thing - for example I had braces on my teeth as a teenager, but they only did the top ones, and my bottom teeth are very crooked and cramped - from what I gather, the policy was only to do top teeth, mostly because of cost. You get what you pay for. We get dental...
  10. I had wrist pain for years, diagnosed as repetitive strain injury. It knocked on to my arm, shoulder and neck. I helped a lot by stopping work which involved typing, but since I have beenn gluten-free (Sept 12) I have had a massive improvement. I have also had improvement in migraine and plantar faciitis, so I think I am attributing the improvement to...
  11. I'm up for Meatza We were discussing this at home only yesterday. We were thinking what the best bases for pizza are, tortilla, french bread, and we remebered the time that we had decided to have pizza without checking what was in the house, and ended up using large lamb steaks as the base. Definitely some caveman stuff going on here. At least...
  12. Hi Marco Sorry to hear you are having so many problems, and welcome to the board. I hope the folks here can give you some help. It sounds as if your doctor was very unhelpful. Did yiu ask specifically for a test for celiac disease? That should be fairly straightforward to do. You said you stopped gluten yesterday and are having some uncomfortable...
  13. Sending thoughts and prayers to the families and those affected. I am so sorry another city has had to go through this. I lived in London for many years, and hated the threat of attacks like this. The various attacks there were far too close to home. The London marathon is this weekend. May it be a safe and happy event. Each year, amateur runners raise...
  14. Here is a UK organisation Samaritans Open Original Shared Link 'People talk to us anytime they like, in their own way, and off the record - about whatever’s getting to them. They do not have to be suicidal.' They operate phone lines 24 hours a day, everyday 08457 90 90 90* (UK) 1850 60 90 90* (ROI) (*N.B. this is NOT freephone) You c...
  15. Been following here, and wondering about you. Dreadful business, heartbreaking. Prayers being said, hope you and others continue safe check ins with loved ones. Mw x
  16. My tulips have started peeping out today, glorious purple ones. The lovely little wild primroses that I have been encouraging into the garden are spreading and blooming. The sun has been out today and (if you stand in a shelterd spot!) you can feel the sun on your skin. I am thinking of planing my second lot of potatoes this weekend (not sure they...
  17. Good pathology = good news then! This is really fantastic, it sounds like you can focus all your enrgy on healing for the next few weeks. I am so pleased to hear things are going well, I have been thinking of you often Hugs Mw x
  18. Lamb with sweet potato, broccoli and carrots, then dates and pistachios. It's OK, I can sneak up from this side and round her up, she''ll never suspect that
  19. Well, we have had the wettest march since 1964 in the UK, and April is looking much the same, but... On Thursday I went for a walk with the kids and found tadpoles in the pond On Friday the sun came out properly, we walked on the beach, smelled the surf, climbed over rocks,and there were people eating ice creams. One brave soul had shorts and crocs...
  20. Thank you! I have had the coconut aminos recommended, must try Black bean is a great idea, and widely available in the uk. I love it. I stir fry most days!
  21. Not exactly what you were hoping for there then. Good to hear they got it all out though. Maybe you will have more pieces of the puzzle, to help you get back to health. I am rooting for you here, take it easy Mw x
  22. Just saw your status update. Early days, look after yourself. Massive best wishes for fast healing and fantastic outcomes Mw x
  23. Mmm, looks great, thanks. Fingers crossed not too long till I get cheese back Stir fry pork, mushrooms, zucchini, carrot, rice.
