I think it's safe to say now we have a war on guns. There are too many guns in too many hands these days. To hold a gun is to hold a life in your hands. And I don't want some psychopath with that responsibility.

ARCHIVED Still A Bit Confused By Celiac Disease (Also: Celiac Petition)
KnightRobby replied to KnightRobby's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I was diagnosed by an Allergist who did blood work on me. My Iga level was 138.09/20, which I have asked out here and have heard that is pretty high. From here on, I've just been eating Gluten-free but still feel absolutely terrible. Something is still wrong and I have seen worthless doctors, which is eating up a lot of time and money. I definitely... -

I've been researching Celiac Disease like mad and I am still, admittedly, confused by some of what is said about this illness. This recent video and petition discusses the confusion about Celiac Disease (video below). And by the way, I've been treated this way countless times by doctors, Open Original Shared Link I also saw my GI doctor for the first time...

Hello again everyone. I am going into my first GI Doctor. I was diagnosed with Celiac by my Allergist. Well, I am wanting to go in prepared and to really make sure all tests are done quickly - the reason being I am seeing a Pain Management Doctor, a Cardivascular Doctor, a Neuromuscular Dentist, and of course the GI Doctor. These appointments eat...

ARCHIVED Medications Containing Gluten?
KnightRobby replied to KnightRobby's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Okay. I had a feeling. This is such a pain in the butt because of my chronic pain and the meds I take because of it. I'll have to call. I just picked up a new medication that actually has the warning on it: May contain Soy or Peanuts. This is the first time I've ever seen an allergy warning on a medication. So is Soy a problem in my Vitamin D prescription... -
ARCHIVED Medications Containing Gluten?
KnightRobby posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
So I have briefly heard about medications containing Gluten and was wondering how true this is? I am on medications for severe chronic head pain and needed to know if this could be making me feel worse. Thanks. -

14 years in and I am absolutely sick of being sick. Chronic pain is like a freaking prison. And now there's Celiac Disease, which is insanely expensive. There's still just so much to do these days. I spent 4 hours at one appointment to be referred to 3 new doctors. It's officially a damn nightmare.

I have taken Probiotics in the past, even before I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. I was taking 15 billion organisms and when compared to my new dosage of 100 million I realize how well the 15 billion was working for me. I am realizing that I really need Probiotics, because they did seem to help. I think it was a Vitacost brand (been awhile). I was...

ARCHIVED Tests Results "very High." But How High Exactly?
KnightRobby replied to KnightRobby's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
@Laura, thanks for the explanation. That actually sounds about right. I really didn't understand it and the Allergist didn't tell me that it was NOT an allergy. Interestingly, I have had throat tightness before, which is why I've always considered it an allergy. My problems have been so widespread - from heart problems, memory loss, pain, etc - that I... -
ARCHIVED How Long To Get Rid Of Gluten From My System?
KnightRobby replied to KnightRobby's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Thank you for the reply. Personal care products, really? Do you mean toothpaste, etc? Do I have to worry about that too? I haven't ever seen Gluten on toothpaste and would the ingredients also be listed on ingredients/foods to avoid list? -
ARCHIVED Tests Results "very High." But How High Exactly?
KnightRobby replied to KnightRobby's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
@everyone, Thank you all for the responses. I keep forgetting that it isn't an allergy. I've read about Celiac Disease, but I am still a little bit confused as to how it is classified as an autoimmune disorder. Can someone be kind enough to explain? In the meantime, I'll see if the newbie thread has any info about that (I don't think it does). Also... -
ARCHIVED Tests Results "very High." But How High Exactly?
KnightRobby posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I really don't know much about my tests results except that they are "very high" as my Allergist put it. I also have some other tests results for foods, but he said I shouldn't worry about it (would like your opinion on that too) and focus on getting rid of Gluten. My Celiac Disease Panel, Adult w/ Rflx and IgA tTG Antibody was: 138.09/20. 20 or lower... -
ARCHIVED Heavy Whipping Cream Gluten-Free?
KnightRobby replied to KnightRobby's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yeah, I am finding I am having a ton of trouble with milk products. So right now I am definitely dairy intolerant. I honestly had no idea. I just found out a bunch of products have milk in them and this is why I am feeling so terrible. I am glad that I am finding out so much in such a short time-frame from being diagnoses with Celiac. BTW, I did some... -

ARCHIVED Super Easy Meal Ideas Anyone?
KnightRobby replied to KnightRobby's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Great meal tips. Will definitely use them for sure. I found some Gluten-free pancakes and the first batch, by following the instructions exactly, turned out way, way too dry. So I added double the eggs and water and it instantly reminded of good ol' pancakes! So that is good news. And then to sweeten the deal, there's always chocolate pancakes to... -
ARCHIVED Been Told To Avoid Milk, Though I Have No Milk Allergy...
KnightRobby replied to KnightRobby's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks for all of the great replies. I've learned from recent experience that I definitely need to avoid milk. I had significant problems after drinking a glass - I thought milk was fine, of course, because Celiac.com recommended to drink it due to Vitamin D deficiency but all of your information helps out a ton. I'll keep on avoiding. But I will...
