ARCHIVED Newbie Needing Advice For Hurricane Season
CajunChic replied to Serielda's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Im not too helpful other than listing the obvious things. I'd keep cans of fruit, veggies, and beans. You can stock up different nuts or make your own trail mix and store it. You can possibly find some gluten-free crackers and protein bars that are vegan, also. Those are the things I'll go for if a storm hits the gulf.- 8 replies

ARCHIVED Gene Testing
CajunChic replied to lc1333's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
We're very aware of this. It was biopsy and resolution of symptoms on the diet that preempted the dx. -

I'm DQ2 positive with negative blood work. My dr said it was seronegative celiac. -

I've had ciders before, without that reaction. Could it be hard liquor that I react to and not cider? Crazy stuff when your digestive tract is so picky...

Thanks, Fruit!! I sure hope so, too! Your story is quite frightening! I've never heard of that type of reaction before. I'll certainly be more careful!

Thank you all for the replies. I've never reacted this way before, but that was when my stomach was a total mess. I guess I'll avoid it for now and see if I can tolerate it later. One more restriction...sigh! Lol

CajunChic replied to Deano12's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link These are some of the articles I've read. It does test below 20ppm so it's technically gluten-free. However, I'm sure some super-sensitive people can react. -

CajunChic replied to Deano12's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
This makes my heart happy!! When I looked up if fries were gluten-free or not at McDonald's, I found many sites talking about this "beef flavoring". Thanks for letting me know. -

Last I heard, McDonalds adds a "beef flavor" to their oil and it contains gluten. -
My stomach is often irritated after drinking alcohol. So I do not drink much, and not often. I noticed on 2 different occasions with rum, I was up all night with nausea and a rapid heart rate. I do not get drunk, so that wasn't it. But I was up both nights with a very anxious feeling. By morning, I'm tired and my heart rate is still a little high. Anyone...

ARCHIVED Oh Joy! 2 Part Vent: 1) Kitchen Helpers; 2) Bread That Sucks
CajunChic replied to MsQuel's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I like Bob's Red Mill "wonderful bread mix". I bought a bread machine and find its better than the frozen stuff. It tastes close to the gluten goodness we all knew. I add flax seeds for extra fiber. Good luck on your quest! -
ARCHIVED Red Beans And Rice
CajunChic replied to borbuhas's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I don't use celery or paprika. When it's been cooking for a couple of hours, the beans are nice and dark. The typical Louisiana seasoning blend is usually onions, bell peppers, and celery. Sometimes I use it, sometimes I do just onion. It's a matter of preference. I use more flavors when I make white beans because they're so mild in flavor. Salt meat is amazing... -
ARCHIVED Red Beans And Rice
CajunChic replied to borbuhas's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Red beans are one of the easiest dishes to make, and you can control your flavor! Boil dry beans and onion. Add a good bit of garlic powder and salt. then add any other seasoning you like. Add sausage at the end of your boil and that's it! Definitely a Louisiana favorite : ) -
ARCHIVED Positive Biopsy Followed By Negative Blood Work
CajunChic replied to JodyM75's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Lol!!! I feel the same way! I thank God I found it before I suffered what other celiacs have suffered without the correct dx. Now on to better days : ) -
ARCHIVED Positive Biopsy Followed By Negative Blood Work
CajunChic replied to JodyM75's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Look at your pathology report and read what type of damage was seen, (increased IELs, villi blunting, scalloping, was the structure normal, crypt ratios, etc.) Mine was only increased IELs (Marsh 1) and negative bloodwork, still got a celiac dx. False negatives happen all the time, especially if you're catching the disease in the beginning. That's what... -
