  1. Smart Girl Glad to have you amounst us!
  2. Ya gotta eat good food. Sunday make a big pot of stew: Brown Stew Meat Add 2 packs of Lipton ONION MIX (only one that is gluten free) Cover Beef with water Cook until tender Add chopped carrot and clubed potatoes. Add a little crushed hot pepper to taste. .....Make a big pot and you can take it to lunch or have it...
  3. Walter, do you have some close friends that you can call on when you feel really down? Do you have a family, wife, children, or parents? I know that you teach, but I am sure that you want to keep this out of you administration. I would strongly suggest that you find a shoulder,either personal friend of professional assitance that can help you work...
  4. This is exciting news, with hopes more will come.
  5. I too, refer to myself as a person with Celiac Disease, rather a "Celiac" because that sounds odd to me. I also refer to myself a being raised in the Catholic faith but I am not a "Catholic". Neither one defines me as the person that I am, rather a culmination of many things.
  6. Does any one have a link to the Delphi Forums List. I think I wore mine out and can't get it to open. I reference it often to help newbies. If anyone can post a link, it would be wonderful. Thanks
  7. Perfect!!!
  8. Yes, I agree. Joanne welcome to the club. You have Celiac Disease. And that's a good thing.
  9. Would positive blood work not indicate Celiac for Joanne? Can someone support my thoughts, regardless as to what she was told by her GI, being that her biopsy was not confirmed and therefore she does not have Celiac. I do have a positive diagnosis through endoscopy and biopsy and I have no issue what so ever, if those that are not diagnosed call themselves...
  10. Joanne: You do have Celiac and you can call your doctor an (*), or very uninformed.. Your positive bloodwork is enough to confirm Celiac. Bioipsy's can rule Celiac in, but can not rule it out, and it can determine the amount of damage. It never fails to suprize me that lack of correct information that gets handed out as fact. Welcome the...
  11. Welcome also When I read that you were about to take a bite out of that cookie...I yelled "NO" out load!! I bet you could here me. I am relieved that you didn't and also relieved for you that the insurance is being re-addressed. I am glad that you are feeling better. Stick with us as we travel this road together.

    Susie: I would recommend getting some B-12 Sublingual tablets. You put them under your tongue and it goes directly into your blood stream. Or you can request some B-12 shots from your doctor. That helped me tremendously. I had shots weekly for about a month, then once a month. Now I take the tablets daily. I am sure that you will see a great improvement...
  14. Perhaps, it's Scotts Newletter that could be subscribed.
  15. I would recommend that you copy the Home Page here that describes what Celiac is and bring that to your nutritionalist. It is more infomative. Good luck tomorrow.
  16. Vincent: I would stay away from petting zoos. Many times the children will be allowed to feed the animals with various grains and then pet the animals. BIG second hand gluten there.
  17. I read that article also and I must add that it was full of inaccuracies. It made little mention that gluten can cause damage to the small intestings and left unchecked can lead to very serious conditions, for those of us that have Celiac Disease. The article made reference to a food allergy. To many of us it is an intolerance. If that article can...
  18. Getting started means going simple at first. Start with meats, seafood, rice, eggs, potatoes and fresh veggies and fruit. All of this is readily available. Prepare them with limited spices. Salads are general hard to digest in the beginning. Limit your dairy consumption and gradually reintroduce with after you are comfortable with the gluten free...
  19. I do the BRAT diet. Banana, rice, apple sauce and tea. It help settle your stomach.
  20. Kari: Welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here. I have to comment, I think that your doctor is "vague". What are your symptoms?
  21. Sorry, but why would you want to recreate something that is so awful. Uhggg, in my personal opinion and taste buds opinion.
  22. Jane: I had been diagnosed with IBS for many, many years and in the last three years prior to being diagnosed with Celiac, I too has chronic back pain. On three occasions, I was in bed for a week when my back "went out". I have not had a back issue since gluten free. You have options here. You can try the diet and be totally gluten free and see...
  23. The thing that bothered me the most is that I paid money for it. I am sure that this was mentioned, but any thing that can encourage gluten free labeling or more products available, can't be a bad thing. But on the other hand.. I constantly struggle to explain how I need my food prepared and I would not want a manager or waitress to go that extra...
  24. thanks paula for posting this.
  25. McCormicks Grinders are great. The entire line of Mrs. Dash's are gluten free and they have made my cooking life wonderful McCormick's will clearly list. It is good to support those companys. Regarding shampoo, I alternate between Dove and Suave....inexpensive, but works for me.
