ARCHIVED Gluten Free Cocoa?
qwertyui replied to qwertyui's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Thank you very much! I'll pick some up tomorrow! -
Hello! Just wondering if anyone here has been able to locate a gluten free high quality cocoa powder for baking? I was using one, got a reaction, called the company and said that they can't be sure of the gluten freeness of their products. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

ARCHIVED Blood Test Question?
qwertyui posted a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I am having some other health problems related to my thyroid and hormone levels. I believe that I am a celiac, and have been gluten free for about 10 years. I have many symptoms of celiac, and I don't take it lightly. I think I may have PCOS, and am going to get tested and hopefully go to an endrocronologist to get checked out. I'm not feeling well at... -
Thank you Creative Soul! But I was looking for a free one online. Does anyone have this info?

Hello! I'm traveling to Cuba in a couple of weeks, and can't find my gluten travel cards. Would anyone here be able to direct me to the web site that offers them. I had it bookmarked and now can't locate it. Thank you in advance!

ARCHIVED Lunch On The Go
qwertyui replied to Hells Bells's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I just started a course today where I am gone from 6:30 am until about 7:00 pm. I just packed some ham and turkey with cheese rollups, homemade coleslaw, some pickles, a diet coke, and some great little cream cheese muffins in a cooler. My husband took some water bottles, filled them with filtered water and froze them. So not only do you have cold food... -
ARCHIVED Dh Definitely Doesnt Stand For Dear Husband Today!
qwertyui replied to a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I understand. I do! I have been married for less that a year and my husband and I have had sex 6 times. That is all! We haven't done it in over 2 months. I have tried to to talk to him about it and nothing works. He is great about everything else though. Hugs, kisses, snuggling, grabbing, etc., just not sex. I don't know if it because of my GI problems... -
Last night I went to a tapas bar just east of Woodbine on the Danforth called Relish. It has a casual loungy vibe to it, and they have a celiac menu. The food was terrific! I had risotto, grilled calamari, roasted red peppers, articokes, and olive tapinade, grilled portabello mushroom, chicken roulade, the amazing chicken in a corn tortilla, beef medallions...

ARCHIVED Anyone Else With Keratosis Pilaris?
qwertyui replied to shai76's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I never thought about it either, but mine is gone too! I never wore sleeveless shirts because of it, and it is gone now. I actually just felt my arms while reading this post! Funny.... -
ARCHIVED Premenstrual Issues....
qwertyui replied to DingoGirl's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
I would definitely see a doctor about the dark bad thoughts. I have wild mood swings, etc., and I found taking Evening Primrose Oil really helped me. My friend who is a nurse told me about them, I tried them, and it seemed to take the edge off. Something to think about! Also - sugar isn't good for you at that time of the month - or any time really! -
Gluten In Gyro Meat?
qwertyui replied to durhamgrrl's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
In Ontario, there is a restaurant called Mr. Greek. They are all over the place. I looked at the packaging for the Gyros, and the 2nd ingredient was toasted wheat crumbs. So - if you are eating at a chain restaurant, chances are you are being glutened. I was quite upset, because that was my favorite dish there! -
I just got married last September. We had the big reception! Made sure that there were appetizers that I could eat, salad was fine (oil and vinegar dressing). soup was fine (butternut squash), and then served prime rib, grilled veggies, and garlic mashed potatoes( i didn't eat the garlic stuffed yorkshire pudding, wasn't even put on my plate). We did have...

Hi - don't be sad! I just got married last September, so not only do I remember the stress you are under from planning that - to find out about this now - not great. BUT - I found it quite easy to appease everyone. I wasn't even going to have a cake. Didn't think it was important. Well, my mother did. She told me she would pay for it - I could design...

ARCHIVED Another Pizza Party At Work
qwertyui replied to lpellegr's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
I am self employed but work in conjunction with my Father. When he has a "company" BBQ in the middle of the day (which he does), he has burgers for everyone and throws some shrimp on the BBQ for me. Could you maybe take aside your boss (or who ever orders the pizza) and ask then to order some buffalo wings or something that you could take your share of... -
ARCHIVED I Hope Someone Can Help?
qwertyui replied to qwertyui's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thank you Hez! It is much appreciated! qwertyui -
Hello! I was wondering if anyone could post the link to that list with all of the gluten free food and beauty products. I thought I had posted it to my favorites, but didn't. I would like to refer to it regarding some things. Thanks in advance! qwertyui

ARCHIVED Advise Please? Warning - Long!
qwertyui replied to qwertyui's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
You people are just awesome. My husband called my MIL today and explained the situation a little more clearer, like I've done dozens of time, and I think she and my FIL may pay more attention. Thank you very much for all of your ideas. I really appreciate the time that you spent replying to my post. -
ARCHIVED Advise Please? Warning - Long!
qwertyui replied to qwertyui's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks for all of the support. I think that I will actially print this out and show it to them! Do you think that's a good idea?! I know that you are right. It is just so hard to to make them understand. -
Hi! I would appreciate if I could get some feedback or advise. I wrote on the cross contamination thread today regarding my inlaws. They just don't get it - they try hard but are not with it. For instance, last night, we were invited over to dinner. When we arrived there was cheese and crackers put out. They separated the rice crackers from the...

Hello! I got glutened last night by my inlaws. They just don't get it. Both my husband and I have explained a million friggin times, and they don't get it. Anyway, the brain fog, insomnia, cramps, headache and mood swings are in full swing. Cross contamination is a huge issue that a lot of people don't get. You must be strict about it. The results...

Horrible Pressure Headaches After Eating
qwertyui replied to lemonade's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Does anyone get really hot? Like burning sweating hot? I have been getting so hot after I eat, particularily after dinner that I have to go stand outside in the snow! I am 35, so maybe this is early menopause, or something like that, but it pretty wild. -
ARCHIVED I Shouldn't Be Excited
qwertyui replied to Timber4est's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
That is one wonderful guy! My husband still has a hard time with my intolerance to wheat. He did however spend almost an hour at the new Superstore in our area the other night while I read labels. He then wanted to me to buy all of the cookies! I love cookies - but I don't need them (waistline and all that). Last night we had grilled steaks, steamed... -
Thank you so much for your responses! I told my husband about the book said, and now he is saying that he doesn't think we should try. He was married before and he ex-wife miscarried, and he said that it was just awful, and he doesn't want to see me go through that, and he says he can't deal with it again. I told him that it was worth trying for. We'll...

That is what I felt when I picked up the newest "Gluten Free Bible" when I read that gluten for those who cannot handle it can perhaps expect trouble concieving or may be prone to miscarry. It scared the heck out of me! I'm 35, just got married in September, and am so excited to start our family. I have lived gluten free for the past 6 years, and have...
