ARCHIVED Testosteron Levels And Fatigue
Lisa replied to Jenn2005's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
B-12 has done wonderful things for me. When first D I was taking a shot once a week, now once a month. It really helps when I get the shakes in my hands and muscles. At 51 and post med. I most likely could use the testotos. and would make the home life a little more cuddley. That's a question for all of us over-the-hill broads. I ha ve been on sooo... -
ARCHIVED Advice Needed, Im Newly Diagnosed
Lisa replied to JessicaB's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Jessica: Don't worry. Celiac Disease is not a life sentence, it is a life style change. That change in your hand. No pills, no surgery, just simply, a diet change. I won't elaborate here as there are many on this forum that are about your age and many other who develope Celiac Disease after childbirth. I'm sure that they will be very helpful to... -
ARCHIVED Getting Nervous
Lisa replied to Moongirl's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Make sure that you take someone with you who will convey the conversation from the Gastro. Dr. I did not remember anything including lunch afterwards with my husband. I asked him for three days what the Dr. told him. If your attendee is like my husband, ask them to take notes for you to refer to later. I slept it off for the remainder of the day. It... -
Thanks for all your replies. I have no issue with Balsamic Vineg., just the dressing in restaurants. I have found out that many use soy sauce in their sauces/dressings. I will stop ordering this in the place that I go to lunch. I now bring my own dressing. I can make a better dressing than I can get in a restaurant anyways. Lisa B.

ARCHIVED New Heinz Gluten Free List Dec 5, 2005
Lisa replied to Dixie Gal's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks, I'll put this in my file and pass this on to a new local member. -
I know that you can take a tax deduction since it is a medically required diet. Documentation is pretty hard to keep up with. You can deduct the gas it takes if you have to go out of town to find specific foods and you can deduct the difference in the price cost of gluten free foods vs. regular foods in the same category. It would be a pain in the neck...

ARCHIVED Getting Nervous
Lisa replied to lovetoeat's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The worst of your issue is your anxiety. The proceedure is nothing and you most likely will not remember anything. Please bring someone who can relay to you what the dr. said. Ask them to write it down as you will not remember I know that you have do drink, or take pills to clear out your bowls. That will be the worst Don't worry, you are on the... -

ARCHIVED Burrito Quest, Black Beans
Lisa replied to grantschoep's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Why not soak your own and have plenty for other conconctions later. Beans are beans. Go to the Hanover site an check their website. They have great information. -
Let me add........... When I read a post and go to back, it brings me back the the "click on message board", and not to the new forum site. I may be doing something wrong, but it seems to be changed. Those that make sense??

ARCHIVED Strategies After Getting Glutened
Lisa replied to Heather22's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Heather: I am certainly not an expert at this, but when I am "glutened" I try to drink plenty of water. What you have ingested is already there. Plenty of water will counter the "Big D" issue that comes for most of us with gluten. It will keep you hydrated. What is going to happen will happen Some times you just have to let it take it's course.... -

ARCHIVED Toblerone
Lisa replied to flagbabyds's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Molly , I don't know, but I sure do love it. I suspect that it may be gluten-free, but can't verify for you. It is imported and I have not looked at one recently and am not even sure that it will list the ingrediances. Hope we can find out, I would love to have one (a whole one all to myself) -

If your lifestye and obligations are getting out of hand,your diet is causing you stress, work schedule and bathroom issuestraffic delays and no bathroom, all causes stress,I would not look the other way about looking into an anti-depresant. I resisted this for a long time. I reluctantly filled the prescription. I could not have made a better choice...

ARCHIVED Could I Have Celiac Disease And Could My Grand Daughter
Lisa replied to Charleymos's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Charmaine: Your daughters Adderal may take some time to settle in. Give this some time. Many doctors are quick to prescribe Adderal, so pleae check her attitude and place in life and age appropriate actions. Monitor this closely. I can not stress this as being so very important. I don't know her age, but some teenagers and young adult can have a very... -

ARCHIVED Just Learning! Are These Things Safe?
Lisa replied to Becky6's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Therein is much misinformation. We all rely on this post for the most accurate information. I may have been guilty of this myself, but please do no post something that is safe when it cannot be firmly verified. Products are most confusing for all of us, other than those who have been doing this for years. I myself am just a few months into this....
