ARCHIVED Speech Problems - Following Through With Sentences
Lisa replied to Lisa's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Thanks for all you impute. I find it pretty scary when I'm driving down the road and can't remember where I'm going, then remember it was to the grocery store. I feel that my IQ has dropped 50 points. Does this get better, or is it permanent? -
ARCHIVED Speech Problems - Following Through With Sentences
Lisa replied to Lisa's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Karen, will this get better or am I destined for an MRI ? I can deal with the diet, but sadly, I have this inner feeling that I am not the same person that I was a year ago. I know that you can't predict that or have an answer, but it's kind of freaken to me. If any one else has this issue, please post. Turtle, I will e-mail you tomorrow. Hope... -

Brain damage frightens me. I write this very reluctantly. I am beginning to not pronounce words that I have been familar to for all my life. I don't know what to write . I stumble over words when I talk to my husband, I don't complete sentences when I talk to my daughter, I blend words. Ok, what can be the brain effect of digestive malnur. for a period... -

ARCHIVED Manic Experience Going Off Gluten?
Lisa replied to eleep's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
PLease be careful. This brings up a past nightmare for me. I have been to counciling sessions with my daughter (one of two). Adderal can be very dangerous and can alter the person that you truely are. If you have more energy and are feeling good, slowly decrease the adderal. Go very slowly as there will be side effect. And, Please consult your doctor... -

ARCHIVED New Mcd Statement -- Fries Are gluten-free
Lisa replied to lovegrov's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I don't understand your stance. You KNOW the risk of eating out. You continue to do this. You are totally responsible for your diet, NOT the rest of the world. You have to take your dietary restrictions into your own hands and not blame others for their lack of knowledge. When I go to a restaurant and order off the menu, I assume all responsibilty of my... -
If the GI Dr. did an endo and he/she saw damage to the villi he/she should have taken 6-8 samples to be tested. My guess that he/she only took a few. If he/she saw damage, then most likely you have Celica.

I would suggest that you go to the dr.office and get a full blood work up. I was deficient in lots of things, including B-12 and folic acid. It does not cost alot and it is a base line test to show improvement in the future.

ARCHIVED Ouch! Says My Wallet...
Lisa replied to penguin's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
As mentions on a privious thread, special dietary foods can be tax deduced. You much keep very accurate records of this, as it may send up a red-flag to the IRS. Travel to specialty stores, and the difference in gluten bread and non-gluten bread, etc. I don't, don't want to invite the IRS into my life any more than it already does. -
