ARCHIVED Help Me Pack Snacks For My Trip?
icelandgirl replied to icelandgirl's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
Good idea bart! I do eat tuna, but probably wouldn't bring it on the plane because if smell...but maybe another kind of sandwich. We're leaving our house at 5 AM...so I need to have something for breakfast-lunch. -

ARCHIVED Help Me Pack Snacks For My Trip?
icelandgirl replied to icelandgirl's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
Thanks Darisa! Great ideas. I definitely could bake something for us to have. I had thought of Larabar ubers and bananas, but didn't seem like enough for 8 hours. And when I get hungry I get cranky. Lol! -
ARCHIVED Help Me Pack Snacks For My Trip?
icelandgirl posted a topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
My family and I are going on vacation and I'm super excited and also a bit nervous. Nervous about food. So annoying, but it's true. So...from the time we leave our house in the early AM until we arrive at our rental condo will be about 8 hours. What should I pack to eat on the plane? I need a plan. To make it a bit more difficult I'm soy free as well... -

ARCHIVED Longer Term Recovery - Neuro Setbacks
icelandgirl replied to cristiana's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I'd love to know the answer as well. I am 100% gluten free. I haven't been glutened since March of last year, but I will have symptoms come up that are similar to before I went gluten free. It makes me wonder if we can have a flare up without consuming gluten. -
ARCHIVED Celiac And Now Ms. :(
icelandgirl replied to Christine0125's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Aww Christine, I'm sorry... ((((hugs)))). It's very hard to get another diagnosis and MS would be a hard one to hear. I just want to send you hugs and support. The cooking blog elanaspanty.com is written by a blogger who has both celiac and MS. Might be worth checking out? -

Ok...I'm confused. I'm seeing avocado and chocolate as no on a low histamine diet...but you say you eat them. Am I looking at the wrong thing? -

ARCHIVED Fodmaps...does Anyone Follow This Eating Plan.
icelandgirl replied to icelandgirl's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Hi Julissa...I remember you having continuing issues. My bloating and tummy issues improved so much when I cut out dairy, soy and carrageenan. But when I eat any brocoli, cauliflower, cabbage or Brussels sprouts I will be in pain for days. I'm just not sure if I've got a fodmaps issue, a histamine issue or both? What's been the hardest to not have... -
ARCHIVED Fodmaps...does Anyone Follow This Eating Plan.
icelandgirl replied to icelandgirl's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Wow kitty.. what a scary reaction! When your cup gets too full...what happens? Late last summer into early fall I was doing low histamine...but I wasn't sure if it was making a difference or not. When I added the higher histamine foods back in the pollen was no longer an issue here so I guess I thought I was all good. Did you do a trial diet and... -

icelandgirl replied to icelandgirl's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I'm so glad it's helping kitty! Last year I really felt I was having issues with histamine tolerance. I already have horrible seasonal allergies. ..February - October being my sèason. Lol! I'm on an antihistamine year round and am getting allergy shots. Then things calmed down and I was sure I was wrong. I've been having those same issues again. ... -

I don't know what the difference is, but I do see a lot of similarities. Do you follow either? -
ARCHIVED Mission Gluten Free / Wheat Free Soft Tacos

Yum! Those sound so good. I will be looking for them too. -
(((Hugs))) Amanda... You'll find a number of people on this board with thyroid issues. Most with Hashis. Did your Dr do the antibody tests? Anyway...do make sure that your medication is gluten free. Do give it a few weeks to see if you feel different. Take your medication on an empty stomach and don't eat for about 30 minutes after. Likely your Dr...

ARCHIVED Wish Me Luck With The Doctor
icelandgirl replied to nvsmom's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Hi Nicole, I'm glad you got some answers. I don't know much about OA so I don't have any advice to offer there. I walk and do yoga as my exercise. I used to love hiking and I just don't have it in me like I used to. But a nice walk really feels good to me...maybe it can for you too? I understand your frustration with your body...I have some about... -
ARCHIVED Mccormick Chili Powder And Montreal Steak
icelandgirl replied to icelandgirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I hear you Laura. I've been using them. I was buying chili powder yesterday and decided to check to make sure. I couldn't come up with anything that said it was...but saw a couple of things about shared lines. The posts were old...true. I will contact McCormick. Thanks -

ARCHIVED Mccormick Chili Powder And Montreal Steak
icelandgirl replied to icelandgirl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I don't know that it is for sure. The statements I've read from them indicate that shared lines are used and a thorough cleaning is done. I just wonder if it's enough. I'm not saying they aren't safe...I'm trying to find out if they are. They say they will list any gluten on the ingredient list...I'm just wondering if it's shared lines...is that ok? ... -

Are these safe? No gluten ingredients, but apparently they are produced on shared lines. I've been using them and wonder if I should be. Thanks -
