ARCHIVED Abdominal Pain + Hair Loss
w8in4dave replied to Ashy555's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I blame my hair loss on Vitamin deficiency , I have spider veins on my face I read that it's due to Vitamin K deficiency. Makes since to me if you have one vitamin deficiency you'd have more than one. I get my Thyroid checked all the time. It's always in normal range. They check my thyroid every 6 months. I'm waiting for the day when they say I have a problem... -
ARCHIVED Abdominal Pain + Hair Loss
w8in4dave replied to Ashy555's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I would start a food diary, you may have other intolerances, or something you are eating gluten-free sometimes the guide lines of gluten-free there are traces of gluten in them. Some Celiacs can take it some cannot. Or you can go on an all natural diet, no pre packaged foods. See how that goes. It is harder if you work but it is doable, I find it is much... -

ARCHIVED Tell Me About Your Corn Sensitivity.
w8in4dave replied to GFAnnie's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
It's been a year of DX for me. A few months into my healing I figured out I was corn intolerant. From eating gluten-free corn chips. and another time drinking a soda that had HFCS in it. I have heard I could eat corn on the cob even tho corn products bother me. Even gluten-free corn products. But I guess the pain I go thru just isn't worth it for me. I had... -

So still staying away. I read every label, and look up every ingredient if I don't know what it is. it's hard so about frustrated I decided to go on an all natural or... -

There is a withdrawal period, but it is different for everyone. Mine was a couple weeks. But I had periods of feeling good then bam I'd feel bad again. I didn't realize it was withdrawals at that time. I hope you feel better soon.- 1 reply

I actually give your Dr. some credit for looking into it and telling you he was wrong. I'd go to the GI and talk to him or her. I don't think you have to do a Gluten Challenge. I think they are looking for damage to your small Villi and probably Cancer. So go ahead and see the GI. I would really plead with him to have you children tested. If you talk to him...

w8in4dave replied to ChelseaS's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I have had some bad experiences , I have also had great experiences, One time I asked for a gluten-free menu and they said they didn't have a gluten-free lunch menu. So my minds starts to turn and thinking of what kind of salad to have, I asked if they had a separate fryer she said no but they cook them at 400º I said that won't kill Gluten. She said : is ... -
ARCHIVED How Much Can We Trust Food Manufacturers?
w8in4dave replied to Seeking2012's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have never called a company. If I have problems with a product I just never buy it again. I actually only had problems with some rice once and then gave it away and now only buy gluten-free rice. I look on this site for good products. Tried and true stuff. I figure someone eles has already done the foot work why should I do it again? I trust everyone in... -
ARCHIVED Should I Throw Out My Colander And Cutting Board?
w8in4dave replied to Kias4's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
There are alot of us here that buy new pots and pans, get new colanders and also new wooden spoons and cutting boards. You may be very sensitive so if I was you I would either scrub every hole in your colander super good and then do it over and over if you don't want to buy a new one. The wooden spoons and cutting board if they are older I guess it depends... -
ARCHIVED Multiple Intolerances - Can I Still Be Vegetarian?
w8in4dave replied to Catchy-Username's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut

w8in4dave replied to elliott34's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
There are other things you can drink besides beer, and other choices besides Pizza. Your saying ten years of your life is worth giving up for pizza and beer? Ohh my goodness I have already lost more than 10 years of my life not knowing that I had Celiac. I have had 22 surgeries and alot of them were from broken bones. Hello Celiac! You couldn't pay me to... -

w8in4dave replied to w8in4dave's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I have a paleo cook book! It has some great recipes some some of them call for weird stuff that I'd never heard of or cannot get around here. Anyhoo if you want something just google a recipe. I am not 100% Paleo but it's hard to put in gluten-free and Corn free recipes on the net , it picks up corn and the recipes are never corn free. So I use paleo and... -

ARCHIVED Canned Tuna
w8in4dave replied to myserenityprayer's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I also had a bad reaction from Tuna, I am Soy intolerant. I also read the same thing. If Soy is CC'd then why wouldn't it bother a Celiac?I will look up some of the tuna brands you all have suggested. -
