ARCHIVED Symptoms Worse After G/f For A While?
Rusla replied to bluckii's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
For me it takes a very minute bit of gluten or cross contamination and my symptoms are considerably worse than before. Sometimes my mouth waters for pizza but all I have to do is remember the pain and I have no desire to suffer like that. I will just sit down and make myself a gluten-free pizza. -
ARCHIVED New Discovery! (for Me Anyway)
Rusla replied to frenchiemama's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
The recipe I like in South Beach Diet is the Mini Quiches. I use goat cheese because it doesn't cause me grief. I like them, they are fast and they taste good. I add lots of spices and vegetables. -
ARCHIVED Traders Joes Is Coming....
Rusla replied to Becky6's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I wish we had them up here. I have a friend in San Fran who always tells me about the good stuff he buys in Trader Joes. He has even tried the gluten-free stuff in case I get to go back down to San Fran. He told me it is good stuff. -
ARCHIVED Need Assistance From Computer Savvy People
Rusla replied to debmidge's topic in Board/Forum Technical Help
if you are on a Mac then click on the apple top left corner and the top one in the drop down list that says "about this Mac" is where you click to find out the information. -
I noticed that yesterday one of my posts repeated itself some how and I could not delete it, I tried through editing. So, I don't think there is a way unless it is some secret method.

ARCHIVED "modified Germ"
Rusla replied to Ashley's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I have never seen "modified germ" I have seen "modified wheat germ". I personally would not use it if it said either. I have enough germs right now, I don't need anymore. -
ARCHIVED Acrylic Nails
Rusla replied to horselover's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I believe acrylic nails are safe. However, have you checked your shampoos, conditioners, makeup, lotions etc? Also some nail polishes have wheat or gluten in them. -

ARCHIVED Can Someone Have Dh And Not Have Celiac Disease?
Rusla replied to ktneal's topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis
Not all Celiacs have DH but ONLY Celiacs have DH. -
ARCHIVED A Wheat-free Bread That I Can Toast
Rusla replied to Lynxear's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Oh, you are another Calgary resident. Go to Earth's Oven on 33 Ave in Marda loop they have some great different breads there. The Kinnickinnick rice/tapioca cheese bread is good and if you put it in the toaster oven for a few minutes it will make it soft so you can make sandwiches with it. Also the Kinnickinnick raisin bread is not bad and they have great... -
ARCHIVED Only Symptom Is Dermatits Herpetiformis
Rusla replied to Parrot's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
For me it was the DH which appeared last. If it was not for the skin biopsy and the DH I would have probably been told it was all in my head for the rest of my life. -
ARCHIVED Problems W/friends And Family
Rusla replied to floridanative's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
No one in my family outside of my sister has been tested for it and that was only a a blood test not done the right way. After speaking with my aunt it is more than obvious that she more than likely has this. I strongly suspect the male members of my family have it but they are too large of chickens to get the test done. However, I do consider myself fortunate... -
ARCHIVED Replacing My Whole Kitchen
Rusla replied to Smunkeemom's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I replaced all my very old cooking utensils including my pots and pans. All my canisters are washed in the dishwasher so, that is good enough as they get sterilized in there. I am with Ursula, there could be wheat or derivatives in shampoo, lotions, conditioners, toothpaste etc. I make all my own because I had many shampoos that didn't list they had wheat... -
I order all my food without soy sauce in it and usually I don't find a need for it, if I do feel I need it I bring my own wheat free Tamari by San Jay.

ARCHIVED Doctors Vs. Pharmaceutical Companies
Rusla replied to ms-sillyak-screwed's topic in Doctors
The government has tried to prohibit many natural herbal cures and the main reason is because they don't get any kickbacks. Our governments sustain large monetary kickbacks from pharmaceutical companies, they get no financial support for herbal substitutes. It is the same greedy motivation that allows them to keep tobacco companies on the market. It is also... -
Most soy sauce contains wheat or gluten unless it is wheat-free Tamari.

ARCHIVED Doctors Vs. Pharmaceutical Companies
Rusla replied to ms-sillyak-screwed's topic in Doctors
First, I am a writer of primarily fiction but I do write other things. Now, the pharmaceutical companies will want nothing to do with Celiac Disease unless they can make a pill to push on people. I also believe there should be absolutely no wheat incorporated into foods that are not baked goods. MSG is another bad and dangerous additive that is not necessary... -
ARCHIVED Ut-oh- The Easter Bunny Is Coming... Does He Know What's gluten-free?
Rusla replied to Sagesmama's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Turtles also have an egg out this year and they are safe, I checked them to make sure they were. -
ARCHIVED I'm Kinda New But Never Saw This Kinda Survey--
Rusla replied to Judyin Philly's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Mine were not skewed. You would think that doctors would think; well we have these symptons and these diseases or problems go with these symptoms, why not test for all to be sure. I am sorry, I was thinking logically again and we know that more than 80 % of the doctors are NOT logical. -
ARCHIVED Moxies Market Mall, Calgary
Rusla replied to Rusla's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
The chef told me they would do everything in their power to keep it gluten free. He also said that there was gluten in the kitchen and they couldn't guarantee that there wasn't particles flying about. That in itself is would be truly impossible to do in a non totally gluten-free kitchen. I let them know that I appreciated him telling me all of that and they... -
ARCHIVED I'm Kinda New But Never Saw This Kinda Survey--
Rusla replied to Judyin Philly's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Judy, Count me in on this especially with the last 8 years and more like for the last 30 or more. Maybe we should get doctors to use this as so many seem to be devoid of common sense. -
I am going to my doctor tomorrow for a bone density referral because both my aunt and mother have Osteoporosis and I have back calcification and massive hip problems. My aunt and mother both have shrunk considerably.

ARCHIVED I'm Kinda New But Never Saw This Kinda Survey--
Rusla replied to Judyin Philly's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
The top two that come up for me are Lactose Intolerant and Celiac Disease, which I have both. -
I was in Market Mall earlier today. I had to get some banking and other stuff done. I saw that the new Moxies was open and as I did not feel like cooking supper tonight, I strolled over to see what they had for me to dine on. About a month ago I had written to Moxies asking about allergy or gluten-free menu's and the head chef said they took food allergies...
