    Last night I stopped by a local our local kangaroo gas station and got a cherry slushie. I thought that surely a slushie would be safe. Well, I thought wrong. Within about 20 minutes after drinking it I started having all of my "I got glutened" symptoms. Stomach cramps, gas, bloating, lower back pain- all of which I get when I eat gluten. I have only been...

    So, being a newbie and all (diagnosed a month ago) I am still learning a lot. What types of non food products are safe? I know that you can only get glutened by ingesting it, but I am pretty bad about touching my face/lips often throughout the day and I really prefer purchasing gluten free products to be extra safe. Can anyone help me out on ideas for the...

    Thank you Hearing that you went through something similar with the "4 days of bliss and then took a dive" makes me feel better

    Hey everyone: I am a bit discouraged. I was diagnosed with celiac about a month ago. I did not have the endoscopy, as my blood test results were extremely positive. My Dr. did not feel it was necessary, and since I had already spent a fortune on every other test in the book, I decided not to. I started my gluten free diet immediately, and within a week...

    That is a good thought. I never thought about buying a cheap toaster and keeping it at my desk. Thanks!

    Hey everyone, I was diagnosed with Celiac a few weeks ago and have been wondering about using the same toaster oven as people at work who eat gluten. I have replaced all of my at home kitchen supplies, but I am confused about using the break room stuff at work... I like to bring my breakfast to work with me, and would like to bring these gluten free...

    ARCHIVED Chickfila?

    eblue replied to eblue's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    Thanks for the input. I agree with yall, it is just too early for me to be eating out. I am not going to eat out again for a very very long time. It is hard because we are always on the go, but I am just going to have to find a way to make it work. This disease is really a difficult thing to deal with. Its discouraging because its SO hard and just knowing...

    ARCHIVED Chickfila?

    eblue posted a topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    I have a relative who works at our local chickfila. He explained to me that it would be a safe place for me to eat. He said that they fry their french fries seperately from their chicken, and that if you tell the cashier that you have an allergy then they would be extra careful. SO I felt pretty confident that it would be the one fast food place that I would...

    ARCHIVED Starbucks?

    eblue posted a topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    Hey everyone. Is Starbucks a safe place to purchase a cup of coffee? I know I shouldn't try for the blended beverages, but as far as plan and simple black coffee or plain iced coffee, would it be safe? I do like cream and sugar in my coffee.. As long as its not flavored, it would be safe right..? I'm new to this and there is a starbucks right by my work that...

    Hey everyone, ugg...I am so frustrated. After 4 years of misdaignosed health problems, was diagnosed with celiac about 2 weeks ago. It has been a major adjustment in which I am still learning, but I can already tell a difference in my health. I have read as much as I possibly can to learn about the disease. My family is extremely unsupportive and it's getting...

    Hey everyone. I am newly diagnosed. I have been off of gluten for 8 days now and can already tell a difference. I am by no means well yet, but compared to how I was feeling, I would say this is an improvement. Is it normal to start feeling relief that soon after going gluten free? I know that I will not be completely better for quite some time, and I know...

    Thanks for the advise. Depending on where they decide to go, I will probably just decide to get a drink and enjoy company. (eat before) I really do not want to get glutened. I am already starting to feel better (compared to what I was feeling) I am by no means well yet. I was just feeling SOOO terrible before that even the smallest amount of relief that I...

    Hey everyone, I am new here. I just got diagnosed with celiac disease last week after being misdiagnosed years ago. I went through 4 horrible years of stomach cramps, severe bloating, gas, diarrhea, body aches, brain fog, and constant fatigue. I have only been eating gluten free for a week (except for once when I accidently ate soemthing that had hidden...
