ARCHIVED Big Time Advice Needed. Feeling Lost....
Guhlia replied to ageearmywfe's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
The diagnosis is the worst (IMO). Thankfully, you have other people around you to go through it with you (your sister). That makes it much easier, assuming the two of you get along. My best advice to you, go out and buy yourself a good gluten free cookbook (I recommend Incredible Edible Gluten Free Food for Kids -- not just for kids, I swear) and indulge... -

Armetta, God bless you for being so thoughtful of your family as to have yourself committed. That must have been a very hard time for you. Thank you for sharing that. -
ARCHIVED House Tv Show Will Feature Celiac Disease
Guhlia replied to irish's topic in Publications & Publicity
That absolutely, without a doubt could be a symptom of celiac disease!!! And please, NEVER feel ashamed of anything you reveal on this board. We've all (most) been through a myriad of "embarassing" symptoms that we would never admit to the "normal" world. Diarrhea, excessive stinky gas, psychosis, depression, anxiety, hearing things, constipation, bloody... -

Karen, thank you SSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for posting that thread!!! I used to always hear the radio on. Sometimes I would even search the house for the noise, and of course, there was never anything on. Yea!!!! I'm not crazy!!! Well, maybe a little... But who's to say a 'lil crazy isn't good? Seriously, thanks for reposting... -

Is this the very first mainstream coverage (Discovery channels not included) that Celiac disease has gotten? -

Malabsorption can cause extreme psychosis (as well as depression and anxiety). I'm certainly not alluding that anyone on this board has had that problem, I just know that in extreme cases it can be very in depth. Vitamin B6 and B12 deficiencies (please correct me someone if I'm wrong on these) can cause mental disorder. Deficiencies in other vitamins as well... -

ARCHIVED House Tv Show Will Feature Celiac Disease
Guhlia replied to irish's topic in Publications & Publicity
I'm just glad that a mainstream show did an ENTIRE SHOW about the disease. If it causes just ONE doctor to go look up celiac disease, then it was worth it. It was a pretty exagerated case of celiac, but hey, isn't that what drama shows like House are all about? I'm just glad that maybe a couple more people may decide to become more educated about the disease... -

It will be interesting to see what the "research" section of the website will reveal after tonight's episode. -
Woodchuck cider is gluten free. It's not beer, but it satisfies the beer urge for me.

ARCHIVED Incredible Edible Gluten-free Food For Kids
Guhlia replied to Guhlia's topic in Publications & Publicity
For those that aren't dairy intolerant, try adding cheddar cheese to the garlic biscuits. Mmmmmm... It tastes like the cheddar bay biscuits from Red Lobster. They are fantastic like this! They reheat exceptionally well too. -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Nail Polish
Guhlia replied to jerseyangel's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
What about if you just use it on your toenails... Some advice please? I only paint my toenails (since I'm notoriously bad at chewing on my fingernails) and I'd really like to continue doing this, but I really don't want to have one more thing to read the ingredients on. What would you guys do? It seems to me that the chances of toenail polish getting in my... -
Those sound like definite signs of being glutened. I personally have removed all gluten-containing flours from my house to reduce my risk for cross-contamination. Gluten can most definitely cause damage from being inhaled. Actually, IMO it seems riskier if you're using the wheat flour because not only could you be glutened when you're actually baking, but...

ARCHIVED *****sigh*****home From Hospital--temporarily
Guhlia replied to chrissy's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I fought with my own anorexia for three years. God bless you for being so strong for her. She will need it. I'll be praying that she's able to make a complete recovery soon. -
ARCHIVED Adult And Kid Symptoms...are They The Same?
Guhlia replied to wonkabar's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Symptoms of Celiac can be so varied that two (or more) celiacs may never share even one single symptom. However, it does seem as though some symptoms are more popular than others. I would imagine that symptoms could be the exact same for an adult and a child. My best description of brain fog is something between the feeling you get right before you start... -
Welcome!!! There are lots of kind people and wonderful advice here. You've come to the right place.

ARCHIVED Bread
Guhlia replied to momothree's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
No problem, Momofthree! I hope your family enjoys the recipes as much as mine does. I've been ordering my flours at Open Original Shared Link. They seem to have the best prices and flat rate $10 shipping. If you make the garlic biscuits, try adding shredded cheddar cheese to them (if you guys can have dairy). It makes them taste almost exactly like Red Lobster... -
You are likely always hungry because your body is craving the nutrients that you can't absorb. This seems to be relatively common in Celiacs. Malabsorption is a direct byproduct of Celiac. Celiac causes the villi in your intestines to flatten, this causes an inability to absorb essential nutrients as well as other health problems. JMO, your eating will...

Most Wal-mart's carry Oneida brand nonstick bakeware. It's pricey, but it's really nice. It has a grey finish. I swear by Oneida for all my baking. Plus (I know, I know, you're not supposed to put nonstick stuff in the dishwasher) mine has held up PERFECTLY to multi-daily dishwasher cycles. Before I was gluten free I had a shiny silver baking sheet and...
