    Rachel--What you described is acid reflux. The difference between acid reflux (or acid indigestion) and GERD is the frequency. If you get it more than twice a week, and it's persistant, they call it GERD. This can cause damage over time. Since it happened to you, but hasn't happened again, I think the prescription meds are way too much. As I posted,...

    My dr had me on Prevacid but I stopped after 3 weeks because of the side effects--the reflux was creeping back, and now that I've cut out the corn even further, it is better. I also find that I have to limit raw fruit. The middle of the night stuff is terrible--I hope you get relief soon

    I guess you can take us out of the 'cuse.....but....well, you know

    Chelsea--Did you get at least one of those abbreviations in Syracuse? The first one, I've used myself for many years

    If I can stick my nose in this for a second--I know I'm intolerant to corn, and I have been avoiding obvious sources for longer than I've been gluten-free. Just recently (the last week or so) I've gotten more strict with it. I have noticed a reduction in my reflux, as well as the gas . It's really worth it!

    OK--got it! Have a good walk, Molly

    Yes--the eyelash curler has got to go! (or clean it real good with alcohol )

    Armetta--I'm kind of in the same boat! I still don't feel comfortable being away from a bathroom for that long. Still have a bit of anxiety about certain things. But, it's getting better--slowly! Molly--I tried to contribute to your walk, too, but when I put your name in the search, I get nothing. Help!!

    Its not a matter of clearing gluten out, it's healing the damage that you already have. I'm 10+ months gluten-free, and while I've made good progress, I'm not there yet. It'll happen, it just takes time

    Hi Ravenwood--I'm sorry you're feeling down today. I had a day like that recently, and some very nice people here let me vent and get it out--and were so understanding. No one can see things from a positive angle all of the time--please don't expect that of yourself. You are human, and you have every right to grieve those things in your life that you miss...

    Bev--I think that's a very good idea

    Yea Ursula--I think it's deinately worth a try for her. Like I said, I have not had one sore throat in 10 months (the time I've been gluten-free). No more gaggging or feeling that there was something in my throat, either. (now, if I could say the same about my stomach....)

    There was a thread on this several months ago. That's where I found out what it was! I did have them from time to time--but have not had them again since going gluten-free. I've not even had a sore throat (knock wood!) At the time I was bothered by them, I also had a problem with feeling like I was going to choke when swallowing solids. I found it...

    I'm on board, too! Good luck out there

    Jenny--That's great news. Tom rules!!!!

    They really need to specify because in my email, they said "mascaras"--not just certain ones. I don't like this

    On the subject of Starbucks mocha and chocolate, there was a thread about it recently-- Open Original Shared Link

    I use their regular mascara--I was assured by them via email that it was gluten-free. I have it in 2 colors--and have not had a problem. I'm going to email them again and ask if this has changed, or if the wheat is only in certain types of mascara. Jeesh! (Thanks for the heads up!)

    Ha Rose--what a day you've had--feel better

    In general, a cake that will bake in a bundt pan will do just fine in a 13 by 9 rectangular pan. I would start checking on it after 25 minutes or so.

    Not to their apricots, but to their dates. I was thinking it was because dried fruit has so much fiber. But, I emailed them to ask about CC and processing, and twice I got back a form letter about their raisins. After the first one, I wrote back and explained that I was talking about the dates, and 2 days later, another response about the raisins. So...

    I just looked it up, too (I've been kind of curious)--perfect!!

    Dani--I'm so happy that you figured out the source of your lingering symptoms and are feeling so well! You've been through a lot with this thing Stay well!

    My spring allergies are killing me this year! Claritan is gluten-free. I've been using it for years--and am currently using it. My allergist gave me Zyrtek, but honestly, for me, the Claritan works and causes me no side effects so I prefer it.

    I still haven't gotten an ice cream maker yet! But I will. Vance's sent me a few ice cream recipes--I think one was strawberry and a couple others. Are these the ones you have? I know the ones I have use oil--
