    ARCHIVED Feeling Down

    tryme replied to tryme's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    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...

    ARCHIVED Feeling Down

    tryme posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    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, 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...

    Hi, I have another newbie question. My husband bought pain pumpkin seeds from the bin in the organic section of superstore loblows.I used them to make my protein bars and didn't even think of the cross contamination part. Do you guys happen to know if these are usually gluten free? Should I be only buy seeds and nuts that has "gluten free" written...

    Thanks Gemini! I do take extra care with my lip balms and hand lotions. I also always wash my hands before touching my food just to be extra sure and mostly consume foods for which I need cutlery. I am trying my best to avoid any cross contamination! you guys are right, I shouldn't worry myself with this. Just because its coming from a specialist doesn...

    Saw my GI today for follow up and found out that I might still be glutening myself I thought I was doing great with my new gluten free diet and didn't even think of the skin care products that I was using ;( My moisturiser contains GLUTEN!! I thought that it wasn't possible for gluten to be absorbed in the blood stream through the skin but my GI specialist...
