ARCHIVED Monosodium Glutamate
Rusla replied to Tavi2's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
MSG should be outlawed, as it really doesn't enhance the product. You can enhance flavors with spices. I have been allergic to MSG for forever. As msg contains hydrolyzed vegetable protein which more often than doesn't contains gluten and is a big no no for us.. It is safe to say stay away from it. My problems with it started in my late teens when they started... -
Well then they should all start being gluten-free. Perhaps we should all write to head office.

ARCHIVED Reese's Cups Or M&m's
Rusla replied to brizzo's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Effem who makes M & M's is just like Kraft and Hershey. They will disclose if the product is even made in a factory that produces wheat or gluten products. As they have told me they are made in a separate facility and I have never been glutened by them and I am highly sensitive. -
ARCHIVED How Long Before Seeing Results From Diet!
Rusla replied to micaldrew's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
All coke products are gluten-free, remember you need to have all makeup, shampoo's, lotions etc., gluten-free. As everyone's body is different so will be the time they would start seeing the effects of gluten-free. My stools went normal in the first week. However, if I get a small amount of gluten by accident it happens back to runny again. As for cramping... -
ARCHIVED Accused Of Neglect
Rusla replied to sillyactsue's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Anderea I am sure that SOB of an ex will get what he deserves. I am sure if they gave her to him she would go down hill rapidly because he would stuff her with gluten. It is horrible what some men will do to hurt the person they used to be married to and the lies they make up to get out of paying child support. This is a ploy to get out of paying you in the... -
ARCHIVED Glutino Chocolate Wafer Cookies
Rusla replied to elonwy's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have not seen those around here. I was at the new "Planet Organic" that just opened up close to my house and they have tons of good gluten-free stuff. Lots of Glutino stuff, I got one of the small Glutino spinach it was great. I will have to look for the cookies next time. -
As Carla said if you have DH then you are Celiac. Not all celiac's get it but only celiacs get it. Welcome to the forum. I know of another person whose major back problems and his only symptom was the cause of this disease.

ARCHIVED When Should We Start Seeing Results?
Rusla replied to mom2two's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Are you positively sure that she is totally gluten-free? Is there gluten in the house? Have you checked for hidden gluten and have you made sure all lotions, creams, shampoo's , conditioners etc are totally gluten-free? Is she in a day care when she could have contact with gluten? Gluten hides in places you would never expect to find it. -
Now that is the ticket!

ARCHIVED I Just Figured Out,,,,i Have Been Glutening Myself...
Rusla replied to chgomom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I hate when they start doing them in wheat, now they are taking something else from us. Don't be mad at you be mad at them for screwing up a safe food and why did they not list the wheat ingredient, idiots they are. -
ARCHIVED Boderline
Rusla replied to JASON's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Being Celiac is like being pregnant, you are or you aren't pregnant or celiac. There is not borderline pregnancies nor is there borderline Celiac disease. So as you have already been told, welcome to the world of Celiac. -
ARCHIVED I Just Figured Out,,,,i Have Been Glutening Myself...
Rusla replied to chgomom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I am sorry you feel like crap. Maltodextrin is different than malt by the way and ok. The other thing you can do is get ground turkey meat and make your own burgers. My brother makes Porkin burgers, he uses ground pork and ground chicken and they are great and contain no gluten. -
ARCHIVED Not Sure If I Have Celiac Or Not
Rusla replied to artsygal's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Welcome to the forum and to the world of Celiac disease. Now, I am not a doctor but it sure sounds like Celiac to me or gluten intolerant. Which is pretty well the same as Celiac. Let us know how the tests turn out and there is lots of great info and people in this forum. -
ARCHIVED Helloween Candy?
Rusla replied to kalanfan's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Aero is safe, turtles is safe. Hershey is very good about disclosing everything. -
The other thing is that I know very few men live alone or can live alone. Yet I know many women including myself that are happy and live alone successfully.

I know, my son used to ask where his shoes were, I told him he was the one who wore them not me so he should know where he put them.

ARCHIVED Tell Mommagoose You Love Her
Rusla replied to Mtndog's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Actually witches are grey and I have the roots to prove it so, as a witch you must learn to work both sides when you need to. Now all of us women are Goddesses. -
Well there is stuff missing from the mens side. First men wiggle around in their seat looking for their wallet, Then they take off the seat belt so that get said wallet. Then man finds out he left wallet at home. He goes back home to get wallet and asks wife where it is, he finds out he left the wallet at work and drives back to work without the...

I also research, I am a born researcher. When I figured I had hypothyroidism I researched that and things it was related to, I literally spent 3 full days in the medical library and photo copied the pages so that I would have things to back me up. I would strongly suggest doing the same and sending copies to your insurance companies, be sure to highlight...

ARCHIVED Tell Mommagoose You Love Her
Rusla replied to Mtndog's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
They are especially good bbq'd. The ones that are tougher would have to be marinated and some remind me of fishes so, those get cooked in lemon garlic butter and lemon pepper seasoning. Why pay more for your meat. -
What an absolute dumb-arse. This is where I say we should all see veterinarians. I would wish him to get Celiac disease and then I hope he gets cancer of the colon so that he will finally realize that is one of the ways to die from Celiac disease. It was like one doctor I had who said there was no such thing as hypoglycemia and when he was pushed into doing...

ARCHIVED No Reaction
Rusla replied to bmzob's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Cheating...hmmm I guess it depends on whether you worry about things like pernicious anemia, stomach cancer, colon cancer, etc. If you don't care about getting any of these things or having cancer would not bother you then go ahead and cheat, not something I would personally do. It doesn't matter whether you asymptomatic or not, damage is being done. There... -
And a concussion along with knocking out whatever teeth I have left after this disease took most of them.

Sounds like that nasty flu. The only stupid questions are the ones that are not asked.

That is cool, I will see about picking it up and I will get my friends to also.
