    Thank you! Yes, I try to tell myself there are people worse off than me. But sometimes my own pity party wins out.

    This is what I had off the gluten-free menu: Scallop BLT, honeydew vinaigrette Layered Seafood Cocktail, orange chili sauce Grilled Island Style Fresh Fish with tropical fruit salsa, jasmine rice and bok choy Asian slaw I also asked the waiter two separate times to clarify with the chef that there was no soy in any of the ingredients. I have sent...

    Thanks, Gemini. It all feels so overwhelming again. Thank you for sharing your stories -- it's nice to know I am not alone. I think I need to put some kind of emergency "bag" in my car -- but that will only solve half the issue, if you know what I mean. I know I just have to keep going, but I guess I am still mourning the loss of eating like a normal...

    Well the depression really hit big today. Not sure if it is a symptom of the soy contamination or just from the fact that I am still sick and probably will be for at least 2 weeks, was horribly sick at the restaurant (Linda Blair, Exorcist sick), embarrassed to death because it happened while with my out-of-town friend, or because he left town without responding...

    Open Original Shared Link These are the vitamins that I take. Gluten free, soy free. They don't say soy free, but there is no soy in the ingredients and they don't make me sick. I don't see corn in the ingredients either -- unless there is another name for it I am not aware of.

    Thanks, everyone. The sympathy really helps. Gemini, I think you may be right. Now that I can think more clearly, I think it must have been soy because of my violent reaction. I am going to call the manager back today and ask him to check the actual ingredients in what I ate. They probably don't realize that there is soy in mayo and lots of other...

    Does food poisoning hit that fast? My friend didn't get sick and he ate the same thing. I'm at a loss. I finally managed to get out of bed at 6 pm and take a shower.

    I'm not sure if this is the right section for my question.... I have been gluten free since last November. My symptoms before Celiac testing were severe fatigue and muscle weakness, with nausea. I've been gluten free since November. I struggled a little bit in the beginning until I figured out that I also had developed a soy intolerance. Last night...

    Thanks Cavernio. That's how I feel about it. I have an out of town friend with Celiac and her pharmacist always helps her with prescriptions. So far I have done all the footwork myself, but it's not easy. I have several health issues, so I do take a lot of medication and sometimes it takes days for a manufacturer to call me back with the information...

    I'm so frustrated at the process of having prescriptions filled. It seems like it's all on me to research online (can't always find information), tell the Pharmacy which manufacturer they have to order from. I have always used Ralph's pharmacy and they couldn't be more clueless about the gluten issue. When they order from the manufacturer that is not their...

    Thanks for the tips!

    Thanks. I was hoping I would not be that sensitive, but I think I'm going to have to accept it.

    Thanks!

    Here is the list of ingredients for Bob's red relish. It looks ok to me, but I am new to this. Am I missing anything? Is it gluten free? BOB’S RED RELISH SAUCE – 1 GALLON INGREDIENTS: TOMATO PUREE (WATER, TOMATO PASTE), CHOPPED PICKLES, HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, CORN SYRUP, SUGAR, DISTILLED VINEGAR, LESS THAN 2% OF: WATER, ONION*, ALUM, TURMERIC, PO...

    Sigh. Thanks.

    Is it normal that I would now be sensitive to things made in the "same facility" -- when I wasn't in the beginning?

    I've been gluten free for 11 weeks so far. One of the foods I have been eating since going gluten free is Amy's Rice Mac & Cheese. No GMO's no soy. I have it once a week for lunch -- except last week I did not have it. Today I got queasy after eating, and 2 hours later the muscle weakness started to set in, along with the fatigue. My worst reactions...

    Thanks!

    Does that mean a McFlurry is gluten free? (Depending on which topping you choose?) Is all soft serve ice cream gluten free?
  20. KikiB
    Thanks! I always buy from Whole Foods -- no hormones, preservatives or antibiotics.
  21. KikiB
    Thanks! Thanks! What kind of oil and what kind of vinegar do you use?
  22. KikiB
    Thank you!

    My sister suggested that grain fed beef would contain gluten. I haven't read anything about this. Do we have to worry about grain fed meats?
  24. KikiB
    Interesting. I still feel poorly and it's been nearly 24 hours.
  25. KikiB
    Thank you! It was packed in water.
