ARCHIVED Everyday Minerals - Great gluten-free Mineral Make-up!
dlp252 replied to Mango04's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I ordered my samples yesterday. I've been a Bare Minerals girl for many years, but my face is getting really sensitive, and started to break out. I've been trying True minerals, but my face is breaking out after only a few months, so I'm really excited to try the Everyday Minerals -
Nope, this is actually one of the reaons why I'm NOT on antibiotics now. From 2002 to 2005 I was on nearly constant rounds of antibiotics for "sinus infections". They started me on augmentin 875mg twice a day for 10 days, plus 8 days of prednisone...I'd feel good for a week, then get the "infection" again. They had to keep upping the mg, so that at the...

ARCHIVED Sheep Or Goat Milk
dlp252 replied to sickchick's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I've tried both sheep milk yogurt and goat milk yogurt recently (after being casein free for over a year), and I react to both. The goat milk seems worse than the sheep milk. I get some mild symptoms right away, but it has a cumulative effect with me, and if I keep eating it, it turns to major congestion and sinus infections. I was completely clear of... -

Kassandra, Glad the PICC went okay! I'm with Carla...can't wait for you to get some iron, lol. I'm so sorry! I REALLY hoped I wouldn't have to have one BEFORE I read the description, but am terrified now, lol. I have to go back and see what you said about parsley...I know you take it with burbur because the burbur... -

I've been having random pains too...mostly in the abdominal and chest region though. Nah, you can say just about anything here...just don't mention pink glittery ecoffee when I'm around. Something FUN I hope!!! I am so happy the DMPS is going so well. I'm very glad he's coming home tonight! Hello and welcome... -

ARCHIVED What Blender And/or Food Processor Do You Use?
dlp252 replied to Emily Elizabeth's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I'll be watching this thread closely, lol. I just broke my full sized blender. That was after I broke my favorite little Magic Bullet. That was the third Magic Bullet I broke by the way, lol. I guess I need a heavy duty blender, but still intend to buy another Magic Bullet too. -

Ha, be thankful you didn't join in the summer of 2006! There were often 10-20 pages a day! I'm with Carla...I've never had to undress at the LLMD's office, and never at my HN doctors (it's a medical clinic where I see an internist, a nutritionist, a physical therapist and a chiropractor). Well, did have to put on a gown once for the internist... -

Wow, got busy yesterday and didn't get to check back in here. Kristina, Great news on the new doc!!! Sounds like a keeper. Kassandra, Keeping you in my thoughts today for your PICC line. Have them let you recline right from the start. When I had my blood drawn with my LLMD, they took 7 vials...I told them before they started that the room goes... -
ARCHIVED Got A Copy Of My Bloodwork Today!
dlp252 replied to blondebombshell's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Is there a reference range anywhere? Usually there is some sort of a reference range so you can see where that falls compared to the reference range. -

Nope, lol. I think it's around $11 or $12, and I found it in the baking section of Whole Foods. -

Kassandra - cute pictures! I'm not sure about the blood either. I know that generally bright red is better than dark stools, and hemoroids would have been my first thought...maybe she has a little tear...she should probably definitely have it looked at again. The hemoroids might actually be internal, but I'm sure the doctor looked for that. Julie... -

I know CarlaB has taken this, so hopefully she'll see this, or maybe you can PM her. -

Hi Borst, welcome! I haven't read your story yet...I'll have to do that tomorrow from work, but just wanted to say welcomeQ! Andrea - I looked at my WF and they don't have it. I did look up a location and there is a healthfood store within walking distance of my work, but I think at the time I decided I didn't need it, lol. I've been making my own... -

Nope, not practicing with the choir, but have started with the women's ensemble again. We sing today actually. Yes, our date has changed twice now, but I think we're at Christmas in the Park on the 19th. No solos! Hum...I don't think I've seen any of the Simpsons shows, but yeah, it sounds a lot like it!! If the case had glass I would... -

Hey, I'm fast! Cookie aisle completely safe. I have learned THAT lesson. I DID however, spend about half of my 20 minute shopping time staring at the place where the pumpkin tarts were supposed to be. -
This sounds like a great plan. Most LLMDs don't contract with ANY insurance companies, so you generally have to pay up front and then, depending on your insurance, you get reimbursed at the "out of network" rate. This way the initial cost will be covered, and if your test IS positive, you can always make the decision for a LLMD. Come back and post your...

I think it can vary, but I don't think some of them last long at all...a few days I think. Not 100% sure on this though. I just remembering people on LN saying that people should have it checked right away or take pictures (in fact that's not a bad idea even if it IS checked right away) if someone couldn't get in to see a doctor right away.

Good, lol, and LOL on your brother. I'm glad things are better with your mom. I generally do okay with needles but this would freak me out, lol. I did have a morphin pump when I had my abdominal surgery and every time I pushed the button it would make my arm sting like heck, so I just decided the pain from the surgery just didn't hurt that much... -
It is unbelievable, isn't it?! Yes, I believe it's just as bad if not worse than trying to find a good celiac-knowledgeable doctor. Fortunately my family can't argue with the fact that 5 years of "mainstream" doctors did nothing to make me better and in fact I kept getting sicker and sicker, and that since incorporating the team of doctors I have now...

Well, I just got home from my BioSET appointment. We STILL didn't do miasms, lol. For some reason Anna was all concerned with my adrenals. I'm pretty sure she was looking at my old labs from a year ago, but I guess because last week my energy was really low, she decided to revisit the adrenals. And, she did some testing today which showed that they are... -
