  1. Welcome to the Forum! If you would like to pursue testing for Celiac Disease, you must not begin a gluten free diet. What were the results of your hospital testing? Do you have other symptoms other than diarrhea? What is pointing you in this direction? Please excuse the questions, but it is difficult to offer assistance without a little background...
  2. Open Original Shared Link this worked for me a few minutes ago.
  3. Pooping in to wish tom a very happy birthday. SO...Happy Birthday Tom!
  4. I went to the second post (in this thread - by Judy) and clicked on the link. I could vote.
  5. This might offer you options: (updated 12-07) Open Original Shared Link
  6. Isn't there an area that you can write a little bit about why you voted for a certain topic. Perhaps we should back up our votes with the importance of why. I'm going to do that shortly.
  7. Here is a list of companies who will clearly list gluten: Open Original Shared Link
  8. Welcome and glad you "de-lurked" I eat Van's every morning toasted with peanut butter and marmalade and I have my own (new) toaster. A previously used toaster can easily cross contaminate anything. I haven't used a bread machine in years, but it is often recommended that a new one is necessary. I am not sure if you can wash the components.
  9. Hope is good. I'll keep hoping
  10. Ahhh...yes, they did take down the percentages. This way Martha can choose which ever magazine she chooses to do and not by popular vote. I am sorry to damper the enthusiasm here, but I don't trust that woman and have no faith in her integrity.
  11. Hey Susie, I am sorry that you are having ongoing issues. I like Ursa's response and it very may be the answer. I do wish you a simple solution toward good health.
  12. I think a lot depends, as stated earlier, how much damage was done and how quickly it was caught.
  13. lm, your keen observation always amazes me.
  14. I am hoping, when Kat has recovered from her glutening, she will join us again.
  15. A gluten allergy, sensitivity or intolerance may cause the same symptoms as Celiac, but it will not cause damage to the villi in the small intestines. A person with Celiac Disease, ingesting gluten will trigger an autoimmune reaction resulting in villi damage. A person diagnosed with Celiac may take up to two years, with a strict gluten free diet, to...
  16. Lisa, Here is a list of companies who will clearly list gluten (as wheat, barley, rye and malt). This will be helpful in reading labels, which is the only way you can be assured that your son's food is safe: Open Original Shared Link Here is a listing of safe and unsafe ingrediences: https://www.celiac.com/articles/181/1/Safe-...ents/Page1...
  17. Here is a listing of gluten free drugs, but I can't vouch for any casein free. Open Original Shared Link
  18. Kelly, I think that after some time gluten free you have healed your intestines. For some, it might take repetitive exposure to be symptomatic again. After two and a half years, I consider myself in remission.
  19. I don't know if this will be helpful to your daughter, but dried apricots might help. And, they are taste good. Salads, Sweet potatoes and an increase in water will also help. Everyone is different. Someone's constipation is another's regularity. I am sure that you want to ease her discomfort.
  20. Open Original Shared Link ...this just confirms for me that inhaling flour can be dangerous for celiacs just as inhaling pig brain matter can be for others. Yuck <shiver>
  21. I totally agree. Perhaps we should initiate an onslaught of phone calls with this inquiry.
  22. You have to identify the types of tests.
  23. Judy, you do good work girl!

  25. La Choy is also gluten free as well as La Choy Teriyaki. Most store soy sauces do contain wheat.
