  1. I basically found out by dietary trial, then since I had been gluten-free, went for the Enterolab testing. My doctor later did the blood testing and endoscope, but we both knew it wouldn't show anything. So, he wouldn't officially diagnose me with Celiac. Oh, and as a mainstream doctor he doesn't accept the Enterolab results, but feels that dietary response...
  2. Gosh, I hope you like it after all this, lol. Anyway, I haven't seen Jay Robb at Whole Foods (I keep looking and hoping), but I know they DO sell a Bob's Red Mill egg white powder. I haven't tried that though, so can't say how it is--it isn't where the shakes are though, in my Whole Foods it's by the baking stuff or by the "pancake" mix stuff (they move...
  3. And, a trick I use if you can do a little fruit, is to use frozen fruit. I buy bags of organic frozen fruit from whole foods and blend it (frozen) with my shake. That makes it a bit thicker, especially if you use slightly less liquid (I can actually get it to a thick milkshake consistency if I want). If you can't do fruit, you can reduce the amount of...

    ARCHIVED Mercury!

    Yes, I believe if they are being repaired they should follow safety precautions. I think many of my *problems* started after I had a lot of dental work done which wasn't done correctly. When I was around 11 or 12, I had a mouth full of cavities...I think 11 in all. They did all those fillings in just a couple of office visits. Well, about 10 or 12 years...
  5. Oh holy goodness, lol, I've been fighting dropped AOL connections, slow computer screen loads and whatnot just to see BioSET scientificness, lol, and there is none to be found, lol. J/K I can't wait to hear about the appointment. Mine is TOMORROW!!!! Yay. Um, I can say definitely I will not be trying kombucha any time soon, lol. I'm not easily...
  6. Yep, I'm using one called Ultra Clear that is pretty nasty, lol. It's not bad if I load it up with fruit, but I really shouldn't do that either. I get that one from my doctor. I can't remember if you can eat eggs? If you can there is one that is made from egg white protein which has a pretty good taste, especially if you can blend it with a half a banana...
  7. Gosh, how awful! I hope you feel better soon. Stupid gluten!
  8. Oh Laura, how exciting that you had a somewhat normal day!!! It's so encouraging!!
  9. I'll bet they can...the chef (in DisneyWORLD though) told me she'd make me gluten-free brownies if I wanted her to, so a cake wouldn't be that far off. And, I know that she had a pre-made pancake mix that was gluten free.
  10. I must be HIGHLY acidic, lol. I really do crave sweet tastes. Fruit, sugar, artificial sugars, starchy carbs, I crave them if I've been eating them...BUT, when I was on a low carb diet (did that for almost 5 years), I really didn't crave it at all...but once I get the taste again, the cravings kick into high gear which is where they are now. Hum, I'll...
  11. I know you said you don't like leftovers with meat, but what I do on Saturday or Sundays, is cook a whole bunch of chicken or other meat, then freeze it in individual portions along with some veggies. I have one in my freezer for each work day of that week. Then the evening before I put the container into the refrigerator to defrost slightly. I used the...
  12. Evie says hi to all! Got a PM from her and she says she's feeling a bit better today. Will be seeing her GI doctor next week for help with D.
  13. Rachel, thanks. In my case he talked about mercury but not much else. I'll ask more when I see him on Tuesday. By then I'll also have some info from the BioSET session which might help.
  14. Gosh that sucks! I hope it's not gotten bigger!
  15. I don't know what's causing them yet. I was thinking it was because I was sick with all the infections, but I didn't have other flu-like symptoms, so I don't know. I'm not getting them as often this week as I have been the last few weeks. I don't shake violently, but the chill starts from the inside...it's a weird feeling...then the skin starts to...
  16. I'm so sorry, you're right that DOES suck! Snacky things are hard for me as well...don't really have a lot that I have on hand at any one time because I end up eating the whole thing. I snack mostly on nuts and fruit with nut butters.
  17. Evie sighting! Hi Evie, is that YOU!???!!! Hope you are doing better today!
  18. Thanks Judy! So sorry you aren't feeling well. I have been having chills the last two weeks too and it certainly is crap, lol.
  19. I almost never go through any lengthy explanations. I look for a dish that looks to be basically gluten free...for example a ribeye steak with baked potato. Then when the server comes I ask the server to leave off any suspect side dishes and double check that the steak isn't marinated or seasoned with anything I can't have...I actually found out on my recent...
  20. Okay, that settles it, lol. I MUST cut out the fruit. I think I'm currently having at least 2 and sometimes three pieces of fruit...the whole fruit. Bananas even, lol. Saturday I'll get all the stuff I need and that's what I'll do...meat, eggs and veggies. The adrenal supplements they have me on don't really seem to be doing much, although I suppose...
  21. Was this Dr. Adams? I see him next week for my next removal, so I was going to ask him about chelation...I'll also ask about pH.
  22. You know, my doctor didn't really say anything about what to eat for the adrenal fatigue. All the info I have is what I've learned from Carla, lol. I think I'll try a 2 week test run without fruits and see what happens. I guess test included Candida--it only said *yeast*, so I'm not sure...it definitely wasn't a separate test.
  23. Hum, I think I know which one this is...I belong to a fitness forum and people were talking about it. I almost bought the stupid PS2 just for this game alone, lol.
  24. OMGosh, I think I have this book. I hope I didn't throw it out. I've not read it yet though...my old chiropractor is the one who suggested my pH might be out of balance, so I bought it, but never read it cuz my brain just couldn't get around much back then.
  25. WOW, so sorry you are hit with this after so many other things. Gosh that sounds a LOT like what I had...and I had it around the same time you did. On Christmas Eve, I basically just sat in a chair like a slug...didn't move, lol. Fortunately we had just a small family gathering this year so my mom and aunt don't care if I sleep. And, on NYE, went to...
