Thanks everyone and Frieze, that makes sense. What else would they use to be able to remove it easily. Duhhhh, wheat... I won't take the chance again.

I have been getting along tickety boo for nearly one month on the gluten free diet and find it helps many things, despite my other ailments. Last night, however, my restraint was tested too much to resist by one lone little marshmallow Christmas tree on a stick that was leftover and had been calling to me . Of course the package, listing ingredients, had...

Exactly! I likely do not belong here on the super-sensitive sub-forum as I am just figuring out how all of it applies to me at all but, I can tell you that egg sensitivity to either or both egg components, yolk or egg white, is separate for at least some ppl from a gluten allergy perspective... or maybe a predecessor or component for some along the way towards...

Gotta say I have always thought (in recent years after so many issues/errors/problems that somebody has to be "bottom of their graduating class in medical school" . I think I have had more than my fair share of those folks! My family thinks I keep picking doctors that are intent on killing me lol. I cannot understand any such motive.... I actually am a nice...

Okay, and frosties at Wendy's are gluten free? WHO KNEW ?????? Look and see, Dick and Jane, the new Wendy's convert!! Thanks guys. jan

Yep. I have hypothyroidism, type 2 diabetes, diverticular disease (new dx), kidney failure (early, I hope) and allergies/asthma ( adult onset only). Stinks doesn't it? I think I posted elsewhere it is like our own immune systems are attacking one organ after another..... I already did heart and lung disease some years ago. Hope some things soon resolve for...

You know, I am finally regretting that I gave up tv altogether nearly two years ago and avoided talk shows for many years before. Perhaps if I had watched I would have become better informed about this issue... Who knew I could still become part of a 'trend'? LOL

Just google it. There is a website that lists almost all meds that are gluten free or not and I found it on a simple google search a couple of weeks ago but did not save it. I then dropped two pills from my daily regimen of 15 pills a day lol and already feel better with everything I am doing.... can't get a simple doctor's appointment until two weeks from...

You ARE so sweet, GFin DC and I sure liked your subject line..... TY for it all. My (D?) H is a twit so...may lose some threads here. He is a type I diabetic with dementia, major pre-eminent needs always, and considerable antipathy towards me, and maybe towards my own food issues... It is hard for me ro take charge of this dietary stuff. BUT, today...

I LOVE THIS!!!!!! (caps intended). Saw the movie 2 ww\eks ago and have been playing the soundtrack ever since!! Maybe the best opera ever in a movie form.... Thank you!! j PS Have saved this for my comedic relief!!

LOL, ty for your replies. I could not eat all of it last night! My tummy had shrunk!! Now I am back to having fears about eating anything else but hit another gluten free store today and found so many good things!! I am definitely a convert.... watch me go now, folks! Pancake mix, cookies, pasta, crackers....and GUM DROPS!!! What else is important in...

Well, you have to stay pleased about the small gifts that come your way, right? I went for my ill-fated colonscopy yesterday after the typical three month waitlist and two day purge (much less nasty than 15 years ago when I had my last one). It went poorly in the sense that it could not be completed because there are too many diverticular growths blocking...

Hi Dana. I am sorry for your troubles but encourage you to hang in there. I just joined this website today and am learning a lot. I am ticked off with my GP (PCP to you Americans) as he seems quite willing to order tests if I am persistent enough over several visits re the same complaints but nothing ever seems to improve. I do have a complicated medical...
