  1. Many years ago when Advair was first being tested they took me off of Ventolin and Flovent to have me test the dumb thing. Well to make a long story short I used it for a week it caused me not only to have an asthma attack, the end result being pneumonia and put me in the hospital. While they had me use it in the hospital I got worse. When we switched me...
  2. Welcome to the group. I have been unable to make it to any of my support meetings because of when they are held. I am sure glad I have this place for support.

    ARCHIVED I Am Really Optimistic!

    Lynne, I am so sorry this did not come out the way you hoped it would. However, perhaps he was your knight in shining armor. If you think he is an excellent doctor and he told you that the surgery could go the other way then, perhaps he is afraid that could be the end result. Then you would be worse off than you are and that would not be good. I hope something...
  4. It is not a symptom because they can't think outside the box. They don't think it can affect smell. Actually they probably don't list it because this is all in our heads.
  5. There isn't enough of anything anywhere. Most of all we want it to taste good. More of everything especially education on the subject so that others know what this is and how we suffer. More education for doctors on this also.
  6. I am not alone! My urine smelled so bad it would almost make me sick. It was a strange smell. I had a shower at least twice a day then. Now the only time it happens is when I am glutened.
  7. Many drugs such as heroin, cocaine, crack etc. They are cut with numerous things such as: cornstarch, sugar, flour, some have been known to cut them with cleanser and other nasty substances. So, needless to say I wouldn't be taking them.
  8. I wonder if it would help people who just don't get it that we have problems with.
  9. Yes, Unilever will list everything that is in it as I have spoken with them personally. Actually 2 different people called me back to assure me of it.
  10. I have never seen the first two eggs up here. It was the ones on the bottom that come in the bag that got me.
  11. I have been gluten-free since November 28, last year. For me the change in my bowels was within the first week. Then realizing after a month that I did not get up 8 times a night to pee, which I had done my whole life. I won't say I feel perfect but I am not as tired as I was except when I get accidentally glutened. I feel better than I have in a long time...
  12. That is for sure. I am up and down with the Synthroid however, being gluten free has been a benefit in losing weight.
  13. Probably you could teach your dog to fly eaier. Anyway the doctors no more believed me about my thyroid because of the tsh test than they did about Celiac. I however proved them wrong with my anibodies which were 3.5 times higher for Hashimotos Hypothyroidism and the ultrasound which showed nodules on my thyroid. It is very commong how thyroid and Celiac...
  14. These are made by Hershey and Hershey will name anything that has wheat/gluten in them or made in a facility that does wheat products. When the eggs first came out I bought a bag, boy was I sick from them. Of course I read the bag and it never mentioned wheat but a week later the new bags were out and they did read wheat. Also the Caramilk eggs have wheat...
  15. When I was in Amaranth the other day, dropping more money than a drunken sailor. I discovered cones for ice cream cones. Now, I was never an ice cream fanatic but I had a hankering for an ice cream cone so I bought the cones. Well they aren''t cheap but not that bad either 24 cones for about $13.00. Well these cones made by Barkat are very good. You would...
  16. Welcome to the board Julie. You can get Bumble and Bumble they are only in select salons and they are expensive. There is also some stuff out by Redken. Mine only became curly because of my thyroid.
  17. I had negative blood but positive skin biopsy.
  18. Alrighty then, I think flax seed would be good How an egg substitute and rice milk. How about soy or rice cream.
  19. Buy the corn tortillas. You can find those most places.
  20. Good for you Nicole on getting back on the diet. I sure that goes away soon, I can really relate to having a rash there. I have had one there before many times. I found sticking to this better the second time around, especially when I get really sick from just a few crimes.
  21. Hi Brian--welcome to the group. This is a great place for support and to learn a lot of things. I would definitely say go gluten-free but you need to be completely gluten free. That means no oats, rye, wheat, barley, spelt, kamut in anything and that includes shampoos, conditioners, hair gels, lotions etc. You need to be very diligent with these things and...
  22. Thanks Karen. I think we can use gluten a scape goat for everything.
  23. I was wondering how those English muffins tasted.I almost bought them up at Amaranth the other day.I know Kinnickinnik's bagels are great. Now, I know the English muffins are good also. Radman, Were these your cave dwelling buddies you riding bikes with? Obviously coke is not considered wimpy. Alcohol does not go with great operation of motor...
  24. I would have to agree that, many times I feel like I miss pizza the most. I thought for sure I would miss chocolate cake. However, their pizza may temporarily smell enticing but I think of all the pain that goes with that pizza. I know I can go home and make my own pizza qith goat cheese and it will taste a lot better than their pizza. Not only that but I...
  25. I use the hard shells but not the seasoning and salsa. I make my own that way I save myself any pain.
