Sorry, there are too many shared experiences with doctors. -
ARCHIVED What Do I Make For Lunch Tomorrow For My Neighbour With Celiac?
Lisa replied to TracyB's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I don't know about the Campbell's Chicken broth, but the US listing and the Canadian Campbell's gluten free listing is very different. Chili and cornbread sound great. -
I just found this link. It's not dairy specific, but may be helpful to you in your beginnig days: Open Original Shared Link Dairy is not required to eliminate, only if it seems bothersome to you.

ARCHIVED Biocard Celiac Home Test Kit
Lisa replied to mhb's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I think it's monumental. I also like the fact that it directs you to a medical doctor should you test postitive for further testing. I wonder if this could be used to make sure no "hidden" gluten is getting into your system, or for those who are not healing well enough on the diet. Studies indicating the rate of accuracy would be paramount. -

If I recall, there was a labeling issue and they are correcting the problem. -

Pizza and Bakery!!! -
No current method of testing is 100% reliable. The blood test can show false negatives and the biopsy can miss the effected areas. A positive dietary response is a fairly good indicater. Good luck with your testing and remain on a full gluten diet until you have exaused your testing options for best accuracy.

ARCHIVED Company Cannot Guarantee Product Is Gluten Free
Lisa replied to cnosmom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I would eat a product, providing I checked the ingredients as listed and it was not produced a a facility that produced other products that included wheat as an ingredient. Often times, it's a CYA Statement. Combined information would make a good choice. -
Gentleheart, I think the your question about Dr. Fine may never be resolved here. Even on the Internet there is little information on Dr. Fine and Enterolabs, excluding this never ending discussion and Dr. Fine's own web information. I would encourage you to continue to seek medical advise. Unresolved health issues should not be accepted as a...

BACK to Dr. Fine and his Enterolab validity..... Or, can we assume that both sides of the discussion have been adequately represented? I think my cows are home.

ARCHIVED Gas-x

Here's a listing Judy: Open Original Shared Link -
mamabear, I read an article recently that suggests that the diagnostic envelope, that US doctors use for Celiac Disease, is far too narrow, compared to their European counterparts. (wishing I could put my hands on that article)

ARCHIVED Gas-x

Another confirmation: Open Original Shared Link -
Open Original Shared Link I thought this link was interesting. It lists Enterolabs with four employees and it's annual income at $170,000 ( it did not conveny with the link), which I find interesting due to the fact that so many posters here have used their services.

ARCHIVED gluten-free/cf Explanation Translation Into Spanish?
Lisa replied to motherof6girls's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I would recommend Triumph Dining Cards. You can read about them at www.triumphdining.com. They have dining cards in several languages with an explanation about dietary needs when preparing food. -
ARCHIVED Negative Blood Test...but Lots Of Celiac Symptoms!
Lisa replied to christybeasley's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Welcome Christy, The diagnostic tests available are not as accurate as we would like. And if you feel the shoe fits, try the diet. It needs no RX from your doctor. Many people here are self diagnosed and feel comfortable about that decision. If you have a positive dietary response to the diet, with a family history, you very may have Celiac or a... -

Sounds wonderful! -
I don't think that there is a vast governmental conspiracy to suppress information regarding the dangers of grain in the US or the world. Dr. Peter Green, is well respected and his research is well known: Open Original Shared Link People can argue about the pros and cons of Enterolabs till the cows come home. I don't think that it will change...

ARCHIVED Maltodextrin?
Lisa replied to IChaseFrisbees's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Maltodextrin should not be a problem in the US, unless, as you said it is labeled "...wheat". Did either one of those products contain MSG? Many here are sensitive to MSG, although it is not gluten related. -
NO.

ARCHIVED Dermatitis Herpetiformis
Lisa replied to sugarsue's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The Serologic Blood Panel is not as accurate as we would like, and children under the age of five, it adds additional inaccuracies. You can biopsy at the site of the outbreak and obtain a Celiac diagnosis if it test positive for DH. I would not begin the gluten free diet until all testing is done.
