    Welcome to the Club Scott! Most of the information regarding the gluten free diet can be found here. With your biopsy concluded, you can begin the diet immediately. I would recommend a good metabolic panel to see if you are deficient in vitamins and minerals and go from there. Start the diet simply. Meat, seafood, rice potatoes, fresh veggies...

    Welcome Schilds to the Forum! I am sorry that you found a rude customer relations person. I have called many companies and most are helpful and considerate. It is obvious that the personal that you spoke with is uneducated about wheat vs. gluten. I feel that something should be clarified. Hershey has NEVER said that their product and especially Cadbury...

    Gin, Keep in mind that neither of the test are 100% accurate. The biopsy can be hit or miss and the blood test can vary greatly. Make sure that these are the test you need to have for the Celiac Panel: Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) - IgA Anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG) - IgA ...

    "A second hand bread machine" draws a big concern from me. It is very difficult to clean a previously owned bread machine and the chance of you being glutened by cross contamination would be great. Thoughtful of you dad though.

    Lisa replied to tom's topic in Doctors

    Although every ones reply is helpful , the original post is four years old and perhaps no longer relevant. That's one of the odd things about a message board, our queries can live forever.

    OK....recently it was posted that "wheat glucose" is considered gluten free because of it's refinement. Maybe Kaycee CAN eat those M&M's???? ramble, ramble, ramble.... Oh, yeah....no crunchy M&M's.
  12. Lisa
    Yeah, an obscure memory about M&M's in New Zealand. Odd
  13. Lisa
    Patti, do you remember that we had a member from New Zealand who said that M&M's are not gluten free there? Or am I dreaming again.

    Your PMS symptoms may be turning into perimenopause symptoms. I began with Peri symptoms when I was 35 and it ran for a good ten years when I advanced to the big Menopause. I think that the hormonal change makes you more sensitive to everything. (feel free to ask my husband)

    As many have noted, Hershey will NOT disclose the source of their "Natural Flavors" due to it being outsources and they consider that information "Propriety" and not subject to disclosure. ALL of Hershey products that contain "Natural Flavor" are NOT considered gluten free, as per the company's customer service supervisor. Pity Hershey should...

    Hello and Welcome! Flattening of the villi is classic for Celiac. A gluten autoimmune response, resulting in blunted villi is generally a diagnosis of Celiac. On occassion, other food intolerances may cause this, but it is far seldom the reason. Do not go gluten free until you have satisfied your testing. A gluten free diet may alter the accuracy...

    Yes, Natural Flavorings can contain gluten. Most likely, gluten in the form or barley, malt or rye. If wheat is used it must be labeled by law.
