Thank you gluten-free Lover, Adalaide and Gemini. Back when I started the diet, I printed out the newbie thread and posted in on the inside of my pantry. My husband is the only other member in my family and he has gone gluten-free with me. He is actually even more careful of reading ingredients and not bringing in any kind of gluten in the house. We...

I just want to rant to feel a bit better. I started my gluten free diet in Oct 2013 after my diagnosis and with a motivation to have a child. I worked super hard on not eating gluten and was asked to do blood test to check antibody level by end of nov. The level came back as > 200 which is what it showed before I started my diet. I am aware that it can...

Hi ys255, I went through similar withdrawal. My GI symptoms disappeared in couple days but my energy and mood went really down and my anxiety up. It took about good 2 weeks for them to start stabilizing. I also started noticing my eczema on my hand return (I didn't have it for 3 years). All of that is setteling down now. I am roughly a month into my diet...

Thanks everyone! You are right I really should be reading all my labels its just I make mistakes thinking some foods are naturally gluten free. Since I have started I am getting very careful after few blunders.But my major concerns was the symptoms to see if or not I am eating gluten. I guess I shouldn't be looking for symptoms similar to another gluten...

Hi Everyone, First of all I would like to thank you guys for all the help, awesome information and support you provide to people with celiac. It is especially very helpful to newbies like me. I am still trying to get a handle on my own diet. Secondly I am sorry for being a nuisance as I ask lot of questions (and sometimes not the most intelligent...

Thanks Gemini! This is helpful information. I will read up on the link as well.

Hi Everyone, I am a newly diagnosed celiac. My lab work showed slightly high calcium levels, Hight Parathyroid hormone and low Vitamin D levels. My doctor sent me for bone density test. During the review he just said not to worry that it might just be an adenoma. I now have urgent referral to endocrinology (maybe he didn't want me to wait long or something...

Thanks IrishHeart . You are right I probably shouldn't worry about it now. My GP just said " oh don't worry. All it might me is an adenoma. Its not dangerous." and sent me home with urgent referral to endocrinology . I hope he made it URGENT just to get me in sooner and nothing actually is too serious with me. I actually feet fine. Just psychologically knowing...

I was kind of hoping that it would just be low because of celiac but I guess that's not the case. My calcium levels were too high and my vitamiD is too low. My GP referred me to an endocrinologist. He is suspecting hyperparathyroidism due to adenoma (small tumor )on my parathyroid. A part of me is happy that this is getting somewhere but other part of me...

I actually had not heard of it. I just read up on in. Sounds like a good treat. I will definitely try it. I do want to start the yogurt but I wanted to give it a good month on fruits and veggies before introducing them. Thanks a bunch IrishHeart!

Thanks everyone! Buying in bulk is a good idea. I will try the eggs. I just can't have yogurt because I am dairy free. I have just recently started my diet so I am trying to stick to the while foods and avoiding corn, soy, dairy, sugar and any processed foods for first couple month. I live my rice mix hat has sprouted rice, wild rice and quinoa that I have...

Thanks irishHeart...I guess I kinda was feeling the same but wanted to hear it before I let mu hubby devouver them You are right I shouldn't risk it after I had to start all over once already. Is there a good protien shake that I can use after my workouts? Or other protein replacements after stregth training? Thanks
