    Hey everyone - need some support here My GI doctor just called me and told me that my biopsy was normal and I tested negative for celiac disease (my blood results were positive). She said everything was normal and that I was ok. Though this may sound comforting, it wasnt for me. Yes, I thank God that nothing is seriously wrong with me, but I am upset...

    Hey guys A little off topic, but When you guys ordered online from kinnickinnick, how long did it take for the products to be shipped to your house?Thanks

    Hey Loraleena I believe this illness had everything to do with my eating disorder. Before celiac disease, I never cared about how much food I was eating nor did I care about my weight (b4 i was 5'0 at 115, during my ed 98, but now i am 103) When my stomach started feeling crappy, thats when I started unhealthy eating habits and becoming uncomfortable with...

    Thanks everyone for your replies- I am going to stop using splenda. Where can I find Stevia? Is it FDA approved? Thanks

    Hey guys, I need advice. I know splenda is a gluten free product, but could it be contributing to my symptoms. I been gluten-free for three months now, but still feeling kind of sick. My mom suggested that I should eliminate any artificial sweetners from my diet. Has anyone had reactions to Splenda??? Come to think about it, I use Splenda everyday- in...

    Thanks for adressing this issue b/c I thought I was alone. I have been battling with my pregnant belly for almost a year. I been gluten-free for about 3 months and I am not sure if it even helped any. One suggestion, that my doctor made, is to stay away from dairy products. So just last week I eliminated dairy from my diet, Ill let you guys know how that...

    I suffered from constipation for a year now. First I was diagnosed with IBS-C and given Zelnorm to relieve my constipation. I been gluten-free for 3 months now and my bm patterns are still the same. I will go for a few weeks "normal" then the next few weeks I'll have episodes where I will be constipated and wont go for 3-4 days at a time. The one thing that...

    I lost hope in a lot of doctors. I had positive bloodwork for celiac disease, but my doc said everything looked fine in my endo/colon (which i took today), she just has to test the biopsy. It may just be that your son is gluten sensitive and does not have celiac disease- beware I am not a doc, just giving you my opinion- but that what my doc told me. And...

    Hey Moongirl' I just went for my endo&colonoscopy today and it wasnt a big deal. The endo took 15 minutes, they give you a local anestetic (which is great ) and when you wake up you dont remember a thing. My throat felt a little scratchy and I had little cramps in my stomach, but that was probably b/c my Gastro took a lot of biospys. Inform your doc...

    Hey everyone I got glutened today. side note: they should make a t-shirt that says Got Gluten? Anyway, I am trying to figure out what it could be and I need everyones help. I was fine all morning- ate my fruit bowl and had an omlet for lunch. Then I ate EZ Gourmet c/chip cookies and some of Terra Spicy Sweet Potato chips and reactions started to happen...

    Thank you everyone for your helpful replies. I also tried Midel cookies, and they were not really tasty to me. But I will try your other suggestions and also get my lazy butt up and make some cookies

    Hey everyone, As usual I am hungry and I brought Ener-G chocolate chip cookies-YUCK! I was hoping they would taste good b/c Ener-G bread isn't too bad. I am very lazy and do not want to make cookies. Does anyone know which store bought brand is considered edible? I tried pamela's cookies and got sick from them, but they were very good. Any sugestions on...

    I actually use Ener-G's tapioca light bread and Food For Life's Brown Rice Bread. They're not too bad, but you need to toast them before eating. I like putting butter&jelly on it. Hey beggers cant be choosy:)

    Thanks everyone for your replies. Tropical Source does state that there chocolates are made on the same lines as other dairy products and although they clean before, traces may still be present. Thanks for the advice about the soy which I been actually using soy milk and I stopped for a few days and I seen some improvement in the tummy department. Oh boy...

    Hey everyone, Today I had Tropical Source chocolate which states it is gluten-free and dairy free; however, after eating it I got really nauseous. This is the 3rd time this has happened with the chocolate. Also, I felt naseous when I ate chocolate chuck cookies from Pamela which also states that it is gluten-free and dairy-free. Why would I hate this reaction...

    It might be from gluten, but I have been gluten-free for about 3 mo and been weak, dizzy, and ligh-headed everyday. From what I read on the board a lot of people say this can be gluten withdrawls. But the symptoms get 10x worse when i eat gluten.

    Thank you guys for all the replies! Still have another question, if i cut out the dairy then i look for say milk that is dairy and lactose free. What does casein have to do with dairy? I though casein had to do with eggs? Is there any other intolerances associated with celiac disease?

    Hello Everyone Yes I am a newbie. Last year I was diagnosed with IBS-C, then for the last few months my symptoms continue to get worse- bloating, constipation with bouts of diarrehia, adominal pain, and new symptoms such as depression, extreme fatigue, weakness, swollen lympnodes and muscle pain. In Oct (05) my doc requested that I do blood work to check...

    Hello everyone. I am new to the board and only been diag. with celiac disease for 3 weeks. Since then, trying my hardest to do a gluten-free diet, I have been extremely tired , weak, have nausea, and feel confused. Problem is I am a full-time student and work and it is getting harder by the minute. I decided to withdrawal from a course and I explained...
