ARCHIVED Starbucks
Moongirl replied to slpinsd's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
whenever i get a drink that requires them to use a blender, ie. fraps, i always ask them to make sure they clean out the blender well b/c i have a reaction to the malt and java chips they use, they are pretty good about it. -

ARCHIVED Starbucks
Moongirl replied to slpinsd's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yes all drinks including the ones with syrup are gluten-free....EXCEPT for anything, most likely the fraps, that have java chip or malt in them. -
Is there anything to do to make it feel better or go away faster, ive read a lot of info on it, and it seems that people do all kinds of different things, one thing i noticed is that most people had a B-12 deficency. I think right before i was Dx my level was a 485 (which falls in the normal range, more on the lower end though). So i am completely lost with...

I have had this for as long as i can remember, well i had it but had no idea what it was, my tongue would react to walnuts, pineapples, kiwis, and some other acidic things.... but just recently i did some research and realized it was GT.....i wonder if this is related to celiac disease?
-
iI was just reading up on GT, I guess it is considered to be an auto immune disease, whether its true or not im not sure. Some people mentioned that they even has celiac too.....But I figured thats what I have to except I cant put my finger on what triggered mine this time, cause its sticking around longer then most times.....anyone know what to do to ease...

I feel like everything I eat my tongue is blistering, i dont know what else to call it, but it looks like circle patches where my taste buds burned off or something. I had a sensitive tongue before like when I ate spicy foods, or even something like a walnut would give me these little things, but recent few weeks its with everything i eat!? Is this something...

Your gi can say she should be, doesnt mean she is going to be...everyones body heals differently....well i know from most people and from my own experience it can take 6+months to start to heal and feel a difference.

My teeth need a sensitive toothpaste. i was using sensodyne before dx, then i read that it wasnt gluten-free. so i need help/advice on a new one? what do you guys use? thanks -

I work for a health insurance company, and I have to say that most people do not know the costs of health care. They did a study and asked people how much they think their doctors visit actually cost, and they said $10!!! They thought it was really the co-pay amount. Well needless to say I think there is going to be a huge change in the way health care is...

Well if you contact chilis yourself, they give you a list of things on the menu that would be safe for celiacs, and it changes every month, so im sure that the staff at chilis has access to it. Which is actaully great, cause if it changes every month they have access to the updated info! i still havent gone out to eat yet, but that was one of my fave places...

ARCHIVED Followup Endoscopy
Moongirl replied to sillyyak's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
My doc def said to do a blood test follow up, but he only suggested the one year follow up endo if there isnt much change in my weight or blood test. So I guess every person has to use their personal judgement. Honestly, I wouldnt just do what your doctor recommends all the time, you are your own doctor -
