    We were out most of the day so I pulled out some pot roast and gravy I had in the freezer from a couple weeks ago. I made mashed potatoes and brussels sprouts to go with it. I make pot roast by browning the meat on all sides for about 5 minutes per side in a little olive oil. I add a couple chopped onions, a few cloves of peeled garlic, a cup of water...

    My advice--use dish cloths that you can wash daily. Take a clean one and wash your dishes first--and the pans that you use. The drying rack is fine--maybe stick yours towards the front to keep them together. Wash the rest of the dishes, clean the sink and dry and put away your dishes, silver, pans with a clean dish towel. For counters, use...

    You're sweet I don't have a problem at home--my husband eats gluten-free here. This was for 2 months over last summer where I stayed with our son during the time we were in the process of moving from Texas to New Jersey. My son is extremely careful where I am concerned, but I didn't want him to stop eating certain things in his own home.

    I have a dishwasher, and have always rinsed all the dishes very well and run them through together and it's fine. Last summer, I stayed at my son's home (part of the process of an out of state move) for 2 months without a dishwasher. What I found out about myself is that I was reacting to rinsing the dishes well and washing them together in the sink....

    I've never seen one that has gluten, although when I buy applesauce I always buy the "natural" variety and not anything flavored.

    It's as if those who are more sensitive than the norm don't count.

    I most definately have had issues with Spectrum--both the oils and the solid shortening. I use either Carapelli or Phillipo Berio olive oil--extra light for cooking and baking, extra virgin for salads and flavoring.

    I get it at Whole Foods.

    Another soda that uses cane sugar is Boylans--my favorite. I can't tolerate artificial sweeteners, and won't use anything with HFCS.

    I never had another panic attack after going gluten-free 4 years ago, but it was a good 18 months-2 years before the anxiety completely let up. I will still get anxious when accidentally glutened, but nothing like the way it was before. Truthfully, I didn't even realize how bad it was until it was gone--I had lived with it for so long. Give it time...

    They're not like Chapstick--they're more like a cross between a lipstick and gloss. They range in color from clear to very saturated deep reds and pinks. http://www.burtsbees.com/natural-products/...ip-shimmer.html The tocopherol they use is from soy.

    Burt's Bees lip shimmers are gluten-free. I see them at just about every drug store, even grocery stores now.

    Yep--I also go to Starbucks frequently, am super sensitive, and have not had a problem. I don't drink coffee, but I do get tea lattes a lot.

    Before I was diagnosed, I frequently felt that I needed to take deep breaths and when I would answer the phone people would ask me what I was doing because I sounded out of breath. My doctor told me that was a symptom of anemia (I was quite anemic at the time).

    My personal reaction to eggs was terrible nausea. It would hit like clockwork about 4 hours after I would eat them (delayed allergy). I think the best way to handle it would be to cut them out completely for say, 6 months, and then try a little if you want. It does take a while to figure all of this out--getting the gluten-free diet firstoff and...

    While I wouldn't call it "common", it's certainly not unusual for Celiacs to have additional food intolerances. I was very intolerant to eggs when I became gluten-free 4 years ago. After staying away from them for a while, I can now use them in recipes with absolutely no problem--I still can't eat them plain, as in scrambled eggs--although my reaction to...

    I'm absolutely fine with eggs in a recipe mixed with other ingredients, but I get nauseated if I eat them plain, as in scrambled eggs.

    Glad to be of help, Lisa. I finally got to the point where I kind of knew that there was something else at play concerning the BP. No matter how well I adhered to what I was told to do (take the meds, lose weight, etc) it never seemed to make a difference. You're right, it's disappointing and discouraging. I could never tolerate the Hydrochlorothizide...

I basically read everything I could find on this--both published articles and anecdotal. The thing is that 10 years ago when my BP was first...

    I noticed that I responded to this thread quite a while ago, so I wanted to update. I was on BP meds for years--I had to switch at one point due to side effects and then an allergy. My readings were ok at home--130's/80's for the most part but were much higher in the doctor's office--160/100 was not unusual. I recently cut out sugar and starchy...

    Had to pop back to see how you did--glad it went so well!
  25. jerseyangel
    Oh you poor thing--please try not to panic, it's going to be fine I've had it done twice--once with a colonoscopy thrown in ! It doesn't take long, you won't feel a thing, and when you wake up you'll feel like you just took the best nap. Honestly, you're going to be fine. Take a deep breath
