I loved the Walmart brand 100% corn pasta but they stopped making it and switched to brown rice. 100% rice pasta can upset my stomach (gas). I switched to Barilla, and while I don’t love it, I eat it 4-5 times a week with no issues. I get sick from cross contamination whenever others cook for me (restaurants, friends, etc). What was the composition of the b...

I eat them all the time and have no problems even though I am fairly sensitive. -
ARCHIVED 23 and Me- Celiac Gene Testing
Vegasgirl2007 replied to desirun's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I did the 23 and Me test when it first came out (before the issues with the FDA that caused it to be changed up bit) just out of general curiosity-nothing to do with celiac disease.

ARCHIVED in the middle of testing, feeling like I'm on hold
Vegasgirl2007 replied to NickiRose's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I totally know how you feel! I reluctantly stopped eating gluten as a test for a few days after my doctor had done the bloodwork (while I was waiting on results) and to my surprise, I started feeling better about 3 days in--no more constant headache or stomach pain but still a long way from "good". My doctor told me that there was no question but that he...

ARCHIVED PCP was convinced but suggested biopsy anyway
Vegasgirl2007 posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
My PCP ran a CBC, thyroid test, and food allergy panel in addition to a celiac panel consisting of Gliadin AB, Deamid. IgG, Gliadin AB, Deamid. IgA, TTG IgG, and TTG IgA. Everything was completely normal except the celiac panel (he said he was truly shocked at the fact that the numbers not only indicated positive results but all were actually off the charts...
