ARCHIVED What Am I Eating?!?
Lisa replied to glutenfreemamax2's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
After re-reading.... Keep a food log and you might find an additional intolerance. I have a hiatal hernia, which gives me a fit from time to time, with much of your symptoms. -

ARCHIVED The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original
Lisa replied to TriticusToxicum's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
YES, by all means....give it a go if it could work for you! My husband will do his own laundry and then let it sit for days, and days, but he said he needed these clothes.......true confessions, aren't we? -
ARCHIVED The Funny Pages - Tickle Me Elbow - The Original
Lisa replied to TriticusToxicum's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
WELL! I might as well jump in there too! Not a fan of the "do your own laundry" idea. Not that it's a good idea...but throwing clothes into a washer adding soap and them tossing in the dryer, is an easy thing to do. But, when those clothes sit in the dryer for three days, holding up the entire production line.....is a Pain in the Arse. MY control... -
ARCHIVED Question About Symptoms
Lisa replied to glutenfreemamax2's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
I don't have DH, but will attempt an answer. Yes, you can get a DH break outbreak from ingesting gluten. A gluten "allergy" can trigger some topical reactions. Touching something with gluten and putting your fingers in your mouth could trigger a DH outbreak. Some people do have Celiac Disease as well as a gluten allergy. Hope this helps. I wanted... -
ARCHIVED Caramel In Robitussin Products
Lisa replied to Beth P.'s topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Carmel (or Color) is not a gluten concern. This might help, it was updated 9-2011 Open Original Shared Link -
ARCHIVED Gf Gravy Mix?
Lisa replied to hjkmatthews's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Tabz if finding all the old stuff In six or seven years, I have yet to find a packaged gravy or sauce that I would put on my food. Need to work on that. -
ARCHIVED Carmel
Lisa replied to Holly04's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks Tabz ... Smucker's is a GREAT company, just read their labels. I did want to point out that this thread is over seven years old. Information that is dated on this site may not be accurate. -
ARCHIVED Bizarre Stools
Lisa replied to stanleymonkey's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Stools can reflect the color or the previous meals consumed. But, if the pale stool continue for several days, I would contact her Primary Doctor, especially if other symptoms are involved. I'm sorry but I don't know your history with or child. Do you have a diagnosis for Celiac? If so, you might want to eliminate dairy for several weeks until some... -

ARCHIVED gluten-free Turkey's For Thanskgiving
Lisa replied to AmyKB's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
VERY incorrect! Most turkey's are gluten free. Butterball and Jenny-O (I think Jenny-O labels gluten-free) are to name a specific company. If there is a gravy packet inside the bird, I would discard that and make your own with the turkey drippings and corn starch to thicken. And of course, no stuffing, unless it's of the gluten free variety! We prefer... -
ARCHIVED Seriously? Gluten In The Drywall?

ARCHIVED Seriously? Gluten In The Drywall?
Lisa replied to pricklypear1971's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I have heard this over the years. It would be good to contact a generally used manufacturer of dry wall/sheet rock or whatever to get the facts on their ingredients. Inquiring minds and such.... -
ARCHIVED Poor Response From Company On Gluten Free Status
Lisa replied to Robbie0166's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Actually , that response is pretty typical. Few company's will insure a gluten free status unless they test and frequently. What they are saying is that they will comply with the law and list wheat if an ingredient. Wheat would not be a player here, but barley malt may in the chocolate milk. Search the internet, get some other sources and then make... -
ARCHIVED Sometimes It's Hard ...
Lisa replied to Alex163's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I do remember being a bit "high strung" when glutened, which is normal. But, there might be more here. Would he be willing to have his testosterone checked. It's not uncommon for it to be off with Celiac Disease. And it could make a tremendous difference in his mood. Google - Low Testosterone - Celiac Disease. You might be surprised. -
ARCHIVED Question About Lactose Intolerance
Lisa replied to BeFree's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Here is a statement from MedScape (which I cannot link) Although villous atrophy is not exclusive of celiac disease, it is considered a crucial finding. Other causes of blunted villi include tropical sprue, malnutrition, intolerance to cow's milk, soy protein intolerance, and infectious gastroenteritis. However, most of these conditions can be readily... -
YES! I must agree. Urgent care asap for you, young lady!

ARCHIVED Glutened By White Wine - Really?
Lisa replied to ndw3363's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have a thought and a totally personal experience. We have a restaurant here in small town, usa. It's a local place, like "the brick" on Northern Exposure or like "Cheers". I can have two glasses of wine here at home and feel totally fine. Same wine I buy at the grocery store. But, in a crowded environment like our restaurant and I'm busy talking... -
ARCHIVED Glutened By White Wine - Really?
Lisa replied to ndw3363's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have never heard of Crush wine. Could it be a wine cooler, which might contain barley malt like Smirnoffs Ice Coolers? Wine in general is gluten free. I don't know anything about flavored wines ....not on my grocery list. -
ARCHIVED Glutened By White Wine - Really?
Lisa replied to ndw3363's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
After many years being gluten free, I have learned that not all ills are gluten related. Red wine and beef make a quick exit for me - but that's just how I react to those particular items - no gluten involved. I do know that your tolerance changes and one too many (and not what you're used too) would lead to brain fog and achy joints, as anyone would... -
Hi and welcome! Patience is a virtue here and a necessity. With your diagnosis, it will take time and healing can take up to a couple of years of diligence for severe cases. I would recommend that you give up dairy products for about three weeks and see if you symptoms improve. Often dairy can have the same symptoms as gluten - has to do with the...
