  1. Yeah I would be ticked off. I have offered my hubby to have one of my gluten free buns and his response "Your buns are gross. The are hard and dry and lack flavor." Well I called him on that bs and he appoligized and said that he misspoke and what he ment was that I should save the buns for myself amd he could eat anything else. Save himself from being...
  2. I had this happen. Before I was diagnosed I had several episodes of stomach pain that went away when I went off gluten. Then y stomach would feel better and I would start eating wheat again. All this accomplished was my symptoms coming back worse then before.
  3. There should be lots of low cost healthy gluten free options. Keep to whole foods like fruit, veggies, protien and nuts. Possible look at cutting out caffine. Also if you have insurance, have your doctor check your thyroid and vitamin levels.
  4. Do you drink Cafinene? I found that I actually had more energy once I cut it out.
  5. I use to get the most painful, loud and emberassing hiccups. I would have them at least 3 times a week and they were awful. Dear husband and I were talking last night and he mentioned that I have not had hiccups in a longa time. I never thought that would be associated with Gluten but I guess it was. Anyone else have this happen?
  6. I had the same. I could eat staggering amounts of food and still be hungry. Having an empty stomach would make me so crazy. Now I eat bot nearly as much and Im satisfied.
  7. I have totally been there done that. I think my first week off wheat I cried thinking I would starve to death. I didnt, and my emotions did calm down (except when I get glutened), but if my husband tries to eat garlic or french bread in front of me it would be BAD!
  8. I also have come up negative on blood /endoscope but have esiohigitis and issues with vitamin deficiancy along with family history of celiac.
  9. Megsybeth, its interesting that you ask what my instinct says. I have felt like something was off with her for a while. Her growth is fine for now, but she has awful constipation. When she does go, its tan and sorry to be gross, but HUGE! She is very pail and has dark circles under her eyes. She complains of leg pain. The biggest issue is the sudden...
  10. The dr office called and said it was negative but she didnt give me the numbers so Im going to go in and get a print out of the results.
  11. It sounds like you have an answer already if he reacted to wing sauce so badly. I would stick with gluten free.
  12. I totally felt the same way. I would never be able to give up bread, pasta, or baked good. That was until I found out how malnourished I was and thats why I spent years feeling awful. Way it hard to give up, Yes, but totally do able. I still have a long way to go, but Im getting better. Plus, there are so many gluten free options avaliable.
  13. I had my 5 year old tested yesterday and now Im just waiting for results. Im more afraid of a false negative than a positive. I just hope what ever the result that its accurate. I dont want to find out in a year or five that she was celiac and I have been damaging her.
  14. In my case it was a B1 deficiancy and screwy thyroid numbers. Have they checkes you for blood sugar issues?
  15. Im betting you got glutened. I have been glutened more times than I can count at Starbucks so I quit going. I thought I read on another post that movie theater popcorn wasnt safe but Im not sure. It also tales time to jave symptoms resolve.
  16. OMG! 50% Celiac and 50% dumb ass doctor prehaps?
  17. Have you checked to make sure the iron supplement is gluten free? It sounds he has more than one thing going on here. I would say he is celiac, but something else is causing the issue with his iron level. Is there cross contamination going on if the whole house is not gluten free. Is he getting gluten at school? I would have the doctors look at every...
  18. Has anyone noticed a sensitivity to caffiene since going gluten free?
  19. I cant even tell you how happy it makes me to know Im not alone in having this!
  20. I also had this. It could seriously put down 5-6 slices of pizza for example and go back to get more even when I was full to the point of being sick. Its like my stomache and brain did not communicate. If I got hungry and was delayed/denied food I became the biggest B to ever walk the earth! It turns out that the celiac was causing some vitamin deficiancies...
  21. Hugs!!! Im also a wheat addict. It was very hard to give up my old stand buys. I thought I would never be able to get through it. I finally did find decent gluten free pastas and after a month without bread, gluten free didnt taste so bad. One day I gave in and had a soft wheat sandwich roll, ya know what happened, it didnt taste as good as I remembered...
  22. I have always been described as an anxious person, even when I was a kid. It seems to be improving now, but I still have some bad days. I have only been gluten free since August.
  23. Just because the blood work was negative doesnt mean he is not celiac. If he doesnt produce enough Total IGA the test may be inconclusive. The gluten free diet will tell you if your right or not. I would suggest you have the dr run a vitamin / mineral panel to check for deficiancies. Also, get a new toaster and condiments that could have gluten in...
  24. One sample from an endoscopy isnt enough. Depending on your total IGA number you may never test positive but that doesnt mean you dont have it. Do a strict gluten free diet for two months and keep track of your symptoms. If you need a test, try gluten again after 2 months and you will know right away if your right.
