    Let me know how you do there! I live about 30 min. from Marlton. Actually lived in Marlton for a few years. When you go, save time for some shopping--there are great stores right there near Changs. I did eat there once--right after it opened, but that was pre-gluten free. It was really good. Have fun

    Karen--Hope you get some relief! I remember using the Aveeno body wash a couple of years ago. My skin was itchy and prickly after, but back then I didn't know I was sensitive to gluten on my skin. But we're all different and I wish you luck with it

    Hi Judy--Sorry you aren't feeling well at the moment . I made the GFP brownies recently, and while I don't have a bag here to refer to, I baked them for the minimum time listed--(I always do that as my oven runs a little hot). Mine were not overly fudgy inside. Actually, what I liked about them was that they looked and tasted like "regular" brownies,...

    Gee Claire--you have so many great food ideas! These look good.

    I have 2 sons myself. If I were faced with the same decision, I would try the gluten free approach first. If that solves it, he will never have to go on the serious medications. In a matter of a few weeks or less, you could have an answer, and your son will be healthier in the long run as well.

    There is a diner in Cherry Hill NJ not far from us that makes the BEST butter cookies. They make a ton of different varietes--all good. We would always go before a holiday and order a couple pounds of them--stand there and choose our favorites. I miss Ponzio's cookies

    My husband loves mincemeat pie. I want to make one for Christmas, but don't know of a gluten free brand of mincemeat. I searched the board here and came up blank. Has anyone had experience with this?

    Hi Moongirl--Aveda products I used to love, but many of them contain wheat. Because of my fear of cross contamination, I don't use them or any "regular brands" anymore. Thats just my opinion, though. I'm using shampoo from The Gluten Free Savonnerie now and like it. No C.C. worries. I plan to try the shampoo and bodywash from California Baby (ordered...

    Traveljunkie--When you take Immodium after a gluten accident, does it also help with the cramping and nausea? I usually let it run its course, but if that would help, I may try it. Thanks!

    Since she's already had blood tests, she may want to give gluten free a try. Lucky her--to have you as a coach! (of course, if she is considering a biopsy, she should hold off until after).

    Thanks, Bridget

    Cindy--If you haven't already, scroll down to Cookbooks and Info in new topics today. In there is a cookbook for fast and healthy (I think that was it) gluten free meals. Other cookbooks listed there, too. When on there, click on "products".

    Ebrbetty--According to Open Original Shared Link Nifedipine cap (Novapharm), and Nifedipine ER (Mylan) are gluten free. There was no listing of Procardia there.

    Elisabeth--Does your friend have any other symptoms that might make you think she could be Celiac? Dry skin on the fingers, alone, would make me think that maybe dry air, skin irritations or possibly (if it also itches) eczema could be the culprit. Especially this time of year, if you are in a cold climate and have the heat on, skin irritations are common...

    Claire--Your trail mix sounds wonderful! I'm going to get my favorite nuts and fruits and make some this weekend. It'll be good to have all made up, waiting in the fridge

    Thanks, Channon--A great selection of cookbooks! I don't have any gluten free cookbooks yet--I've been converting my old favorites as I go along--but will be getting a couple soon.

    I take 2 BP meds--I called the companies and verified they are gluten free--Norvasc and Lisinopril. The Lisisopril is a genaric from Sandoz Labs. Hope this helps.

    Lorka--I get very hungry after being glutened, too. Probably the 3rd or 4th day when the nausea lets up, I'm so thirsty and hungry for gluten free carbs, especially. Good luck at the Dr.

    I called the company about this a couple months ago. The rep. told me Rice and Shine was gluten free. I thought it was ok, but I like Cream of Rice better.

    Idahogirl--I don't know about Cover Girl but a good, inexpensive lipgloss--Neutrogena Moistureshine Lip Gloss. I pick it up at CVS--lots of colors!

    I feel somewhat different. I grieve the loss of so much of the last 20 years. Don't get me wrong--I have a nice life, great husband and 2 wonderful sons who have grown up to be men I'm proud of. The thing is that most all holidays, weddings, trips--anything that should have been a fun memory is marred by my being either too sick and embarassed to enjoy...

    Hi Carly and welcome --I agree with everyone that it is important to keep your personal products gluten free. My personal opinion on whether gluten can be absorbed through the skin is that if certain medicines can work by using a patch or cream on the skin then I would rather be safe and not chance it (I believe Floridanative already said the same thing...

    Arrowhead Mills was the first flour I bought when I went gluten free. I didn't like the taste, but had nothing to compare it to. I use the ener-g flours now and am very happy with them.

    Nantzie--I know what you mean about your face and the changes in it when you are off wheat. Although I have gained back the 15 or so lbs. I lost when I was very sick pre DX, (I could do without it, but its a positive sign...) my face is leaner looking than ever. Its like you were writing about me--and about the skin looking better--I don't get the breakouts...
