Today is my 2 year anniversary from going gluten free, and I am better. Of course, I am not as better as I would like to be...58 years of diminishing nutrition has taken it's toll. I am now on Insulin for the Diabetes that hit two years before the discovery of those nasty alleles in the family genetics when my Niece was diagnosed. It seems that not...

I have been wondering the same. For the first time in my life, I have 1) not been suffocating all the time, and 2) my body temperature went from 97.4 average lifelong, to NORMAL at 98.6! I have found that it is very strange to be getting more healthy as I age. I went off wheat, and starting taking a lot of missing minerals. I got better. On...

Oh, Bethie...you made my day! I am still laughing!!! All fun aside, I say "I have a disease that makes wheat, rye, barley and oats burn the lining of my somach like acid, and makes me sick for weaks over one crumb. Can you help me?" I don't even need to name the disease.

And I'm #3...I have had severe Brain Fog for the last 19 years, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromayalgia, IBS, Anxiety, Depression, and a dozen other things going back 53 years to when I was 6 years old! I have been Gluten Free 14 days, and have the best, most alert mind, and feeling of happiness since day 4. Not having the Fog, the Tireds, make it worth living...

Dee, I've been trying to find a list of the 300 symptoms, but can't get more than the obvious, standard ten or so list. Can you tell me where to get the list? Thanks, Q

Having just turned 59, and being alone...no spouse, kids or family...I am looking at having to get healthy enough to live on my 5 acres in SoCal, and raise my own food indefinately, and hopefully falling over in my greenhouse, and not being found until it's far too late to do anything for me. That means a living trust, orders to be taken of at home.....

I take something similar, and really feel my allergies galloping back in just a week, yet it takes a good six weeks to really take hold...you will need to call your pediatrician to find out how long your son's medication takes to get out of the body...it may have a higher half life than mine does. Just be ready for a heavy eyed snuffly and miserable boy...

I haven't been having as much trouble as I thought I would...then I remembered, I had had intensive training for this years ago...with just oatmeal and potatoes! I did however need to go shopping this week at a normal market...you know, where they put all the pastries just inside the entrance door! Talk about wanting to holler at someone for being so...

Red Hill Products are available on line and in quantity, and there are many online stores that speciallize in all the grains, flours, nuts, and seeds that make no-gluten breads tasty. I've ordered in several things to try in small amounts, and am relearning to bake my own breads...isn't that what bread machines are for? After I get some bread made today...

My apologies, KarenG. I responded to what I saw in the post...I must have been very tired. I have corrected the word stomach to upper intestines as per your correction. Thank you for your corrections.

I heard that the pain was the last to go...but that's probably for those of us with Fibromyagia - muscles stiff and cramping everywhere! Ha! It's probably what ever you need fixed most that will go away last.

I take all liquid vitamins...ionic everything, plus ionic minerals of Postassium, Magnesium, Zinc, Calcium, and an Ionic Blood Sugar Support blend of Manganese, Vanadium, Chromium, Fulvic Acid, and all 72 trace minerals...four times a day in one cup of raw homemade veggie juice. Can't taste them, and they absorb before they hit the Upper GI tract. I...

Thank you all! I love having a good laugh over anything. It seems to burn pretty far up, rather than at an "exit" point...but before they told me I had IBS, they told me I had Colitus, so I am not really surprised...! When I think back over the years and all the problems, and diagnoses I've gotten, I get so mad that someone didn't just think to check...

CyclingLady...where can we find the list of the 300 symptoms of Celiac?

I am glad to have you! I am not diagnosed yet...I am older and alone, and it hurts no one if I do not get diagnosed...not even me. But I am gluten-free for 6 days, and it's already worth it. I can't wait till I get to 6 months to see how much difference it makes. The difficulty for me with advocating for myself is that people do not want to pay attention...
