  1. Yes it is gluten-free--it's the only antibiotic I can tolerate, so I've checked!
  2. I've not tried that brand, but I like to fix hot cereal with pure maple syrup and chopped walnuts
  3. Yes! I knew it was that or Fraternal! Vincent--I identified with more than a couple of items on that list
  4. Julie and Celia--Thank you both! It's a little odd having my face pop up every time I post--will take some getting used to....Celia, we are non-identical twins (I forget the proper name for that) Poor Vincent--don't worry, we'll bring our guys with us!
  5. Tanya--You and little Meg are on my mind so much. Gosh, I do know that relieved but going to throw up feeling. Many years ago, Matt had to have surgery when he was 18 months old. Nothing terribly serious, but he had to have general anesthesia. He did fine--I was a mess! You have a strong, brave little girl there with a lot of folks pulling for her
  6. Lisa--You are too kind (hugs)
  7. SLS-Sodium Laurel Sulfate is a detergent that can be irritating to some people. I researched it a bit, and felt I'd be better off using products without it. I had what was diagnosed as eczema on my eyelid for years--used everything to treat it, even Rx creams. When I stopped using products with SLS, it cleared up, and has not come back. It's a little...
  8. I'm a huge baby when it comes to needles--or any medical procedure. I always remember what my dad told me when I was literally 5 years old. I was on his lap, and I had to get a shot. He put his had over my eyes, and whispered--just don't look. No matter what, when I'm about to be "stuck", I remember not to look. It helps
  9. I'm with you, Cissie--we all do our own bathrooms!
  10. Jenny--I will be thinking of you tomorrow! Get a good night's sleep tonight, and try not to worry--too much, anyway. I usually find that these things are not nearly as bad as I imagine they are going to be.
  11. Hi Carrie--I'm concerned about you! I have taken Prendisone several times. Each time, it was a pack that had pills starting out at a larger dose, decreasing until the pack was finished. It's important that you take this as directed. It will take down the inflammation, and hopefully you will be more comfortable and better able to breathe. Carrie, please...
  12. I have been using Zia Moisturizing Cleanser and at night, Zia Ultimate Night Renewal--I'm very happy with it!
  13. I'm intolerant to soy--I get symptoms similar to gluten if I eat the protein. I can eat lecithan in small amounts with no problem--not the oil, though. I am using a shampoo that contains soy protein (Giovanni) and after 2 weeks, have had no problem with it at all. Truth is, I'd rather not use soy at all since I'm intolerant, and really don't know if it...
  14. I have not run into any dish/dishwasher/laundry soaps that contain gluten--that is not to say that there is not one out there somewhere! I use Purex or All (Free and Clear versions of both), Palmolive Dishwashing Liquid and either Cascade or Electrasol for the dishwasher.
  15. You can read about it here Cissie-- Open Original Shared Link
  16. Here ya go Lynne-- http://healthlink.mcw.edu/article/930606151.html
  17. Interesting. Bananas are my safe food--I eat one in the morning if I need to be somewhere But after the last couple of years, I'm not surprised at how any food affects an individual.
  18. Well done, Celia--you must be feeling better? I hope
  19. Donna--I will feel a lot safer with you there! I vote you for head of security
  20. Syracuse weather--lord almighty! It's also the 2nd cloudiest city in the country. Rarely do you see 2 sunny days in a row. After all the snow stops, there's still weeks of ugly brown slush all over the place. As you know Chelsea, I was up there last week--was actually on Euclid Ave. and your hills are still there I second the vote for snow once...
  21. Hi--Could he have any other intolerances? (these won't show up on an allergy test) I have found that I have many--all detected after going gluten-free. When I eat something that causes me D or other GI symptoms, I get emotional, anxious, and cranky. I feel as though I don't want anyone around me, and get very annoyed at them for no real reason. It also...
  22. Celia--Good to see you posting! Wish that pesky migraine would go away and leave you alone I love the job line up for Rachelville--the decor position is right up my alley! I would also like to throw my hat in the ring to assist Andrea in the school. I worked in our local high school as a sub/support person. LOVED it--I really relate well to teenagers...
  23. I have to agree with this. Just last weekend, a relative told me that I could eat a little "gluten treat" now and then and be fine. She has a friend with Celiac, and evidently this is where she gets her information. I, of course, explained why this was not correct, and that her friend was still causing herself internal damage even if she dosen't feel...
