  1. Yeah!!! What a good time to be alive REAL Chex-Mix is on the way.
  2. Welcome to this site! I am not sure whether certain drugs could effect the Celiac Panel Blood Test. I do know that the blood test is not 100% reliable. The blood test can rule Celiac in, but it cann't rule it out. Continue to eat gluten up until your testing is satisfied, it may alter your results if you are gluten free. Here are the tests that...

    Look up to the top right of this site. You will find an "Options" box. Click on it and then click on to "Standard". That may fix the problem.
  4. Yes it is gluten free. Feel better.
  5. Have a wonderful trip.
  6. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link I can understand your confusion. MSG can hide in the listed form of yeast extract. In the US MSG is not gluten related. Not so good for you, but not gluten related. Some here do react to the MSG, but again, not gluten related. I do know that some here react to the Codex Index for gluten...
  7. Many people find it easy to criticize that which they don't understand. Unfortunately, that's human nature. Restaurant dining can be frustrating especially when you're looking into the drippy creamy sauce of the plate of your dinner partner and drooling into your own sauceless meal. Or getting tired with the same old entree that you order time after...

  9. Just to add to the never ending confusion in the life of a Celiac. Glutenous rice is gluten free and in turn the vinegar is gluten free. Glutenous rice is called that because it's sticky.
  10. Hi Lisa and Welcome! There are many Lisa's here and I'm one of them. I have been hanging around here since 2005. My how time flies....
  11. Welcome to the Forum! It would be interesting to know what type of blood tests you had that flagged interest in your doctors pursuing other tests. If you have them, can you post it. This site is a great source of information and the recipe section is wonderful. The site as a whole is the best Celiac/Gluten Intolerance information around. Take a...

    ARCHIVED Should I Wait For The Test?

    You said that you have a positive blood test for Celiac. That IS a diagnosis. Blood tests and Biopsies can rule Celiac in but it can't fule it out and both can have false negatives. (make sense?). In your case an endoscopy would be to determine the extent of the damage. But you have Celiac Disease. If I were in your shoes, I would begin the diet...
  13. Don't know Jessica, but Patti posted this today. Words to watch out for in shampoos and stuff....

  14. Open Original Shared Link Maybe this will be a start If these don't work for you, let us know and we can "hook you up".
  15. Aside from never hearing about merinating a Ham, gluten free beer such as Red Bridge is fine.
  16. Given Imaging Announces New Mayo Clinic Study Concludes Celiac Disease May Be More Severe Than Symptoms Indicate for Some Patients PillCam® SB Visualizes Disease Severity, Guides Treatment and Provides Better Sensitivity for the Detection of Villus Atrophy March 03, 2008: 08:30 AM EST Given Imaging Ltd. (NASDAQ: GIVN) today announced that a study ...
  17. With all due respect, I think you are deluding yourself and subjecting your children to unnecessary risks. Best of luck to you.
  18. Yes, others here have had symptoms such as yours. The neurological symptoms seem to be the last to subside.
  19. Lea & Perrins is gluten free in the US - NOT in Canada. (just a little added detail )
  20. I clicked on the link that I posted and it came up for me. It's current, because the wind is blowing like crazy here and I got dizzy watching the bird.
  21. A negative biopsy certainly does not rule out Celiac. The location of the biopsies can be hit or miss. I had six biopsies and two were positive.
  22. It's selective, trust me! (just ask my husband)
  23. This is according to my understanding. Celiac Disease is triggered by an autoimmune response from gluten and due to that response damage will occur in the small intestines. A gluten intolerance will creat the same symptoms but there is no autoimmune response and no damage will occur. Although, it is often thought to be a pre-curser to Celiac Disease...
  24. Yeah, but it's still a Hershey product (grumble, grumble, grumble)
