  1. here it is---sorry i took so long!!! this recipe is from roben ryberg's book "the gluten free kitchen". i did not list the fruit topping they used in the book, it was just a fresh peach cut up and cooked with sugar, cornstarch and water until thick. i used my homecanned apple pie filling to top the danish with. i think that any fruit pie filling or jam...
  2. there are other things that can cause a raised IgA level.
  3. i made apple cheese danish on saturday and it turned out so good! i had never made this even before my girls were gluten free. i get so excited everytime we make something new and it turns out. christine
  4. i am so sorry that this teacher isn't a little more thoughtful!!! i get torn between wishing people would be considerate of my girls and feeling guilty about not wanting to have to "put people out" because of my girls. kassie went to state with the track team and ran the video camera. the coaches were buying pizza for the team one night. the head...
  5. hey all, i have been sobbing since i went to see the neurologist on tuesday. i never got the chance to ask him about testing for lyme disease. heck, i'm not sure if he even recognized me as a human being. i brought a whole list of my symptoms in and mabey got to half of them---and that was with me trying to throw in a few words that he basically ignored...
  6. ryan, diabetics are more prone to yeast infections than alot of other people are. if she has it in her mouth it could very easily go through the rest of her system. two of my girls had esophageal thrush in the last couple of years and you could not see it in either one of their mouths at the time. yeast can be difficult to get rid of sometimes. diflucan...
  7. WOW!!!!! what happenned? i have never seen rachael say ANYTHING disrespectful about ANYONE------i have a great deal of respect for the things that she says. i have seen this kind of attack on a person on this board several times----and was baffled almost every time and wondered why the offended person had gotten offended. i sometimes wonder if they...
  8. do you think this has anything to do with the reason that he hasn't published yet------"he's getting everything ready for publishing" is easy to keep saying, but isn't he running the risk of losing support from people the longer he puts it off?
  9. no one has mentioned, yet, the fact that enterolab does not test for total IgA serum levels. an IgA deficiency will make IgA based tests useless-----and as far as i know, enterolab's tests are all IgA based. also, saying someone has a "gluten sensitive" gene means nothing either, because according to enterolab, all but a VERY samll percentage of people...
  10. well----laugh at this woman if you must---but i have a great deal of admiration for her self-confidence!LOL!LOL!LOL!
  11. jerry---i had my 3 year old at the store and was buying her a treat. the young sales clerk looked at her and said, "is grandma buying that for you?" when she was a baby, one of my retired school teachers said,"this must be your grandchild." well.....i DID have her at 40..... how come a mullet wasn't called a mullet when we were teenagers? i...
  12. they did biopsy the small intestine---it said preserved villous architecture.
  13. i know that the little rebounders are supposed to be a really good way to exercise----does a big trampoline give you the same benefit----like, if i get a new trampoline for the kids will it be good exercise for me---even if i have to sneak out after dark to use it?LOL! is it hard on your knees?
  14. paula---how did the flour tortilla's turn out and what recipe did you use? i'll post the recipe a little later today-----i don't want to type that long right now (sorry) but i need to make sure i put all the directions with it as it was important to follow them for the rolls to turn out ok.
  15. i finally tried a gluten free sweet roll recipe yesterday---and they turned out so good!! i used robin ryberg's recipe. these rolls were even made in a square pan-----they didn't have to be put in individual muffin tins to keep their shape. the girls made cream cheese frosting to put on them. i was so excited that they turned out so well!!
  16. here is what i would do in your situation---i'd have a Ttg test run anyway on him, and if it came back negative, i would leave him on a normal diet and keep retesting him periodically.
  17. your tests are negative for celiac. your total IgA is higher than normal---which doesn't necessarily mean anything.
  18. has anyone seen the magazine yet? the one at my local store is still the May 14 issue. what is on the front cover of the one with the dana korn article?
  19. you are fortunate to have a doctor that recongnized gluten intolerance even with negative blood work and negative biopsies. i think it is possible that you could actually have celiac disease, but there is probably no way you will ever know for sure since you are gluten free. oh well, the treatment is the same, either way.
  20. why are you mad about your blood test results? if you know that you feel better gluten free, does it really matter what the blood test says? how important is it to you to know if your son has "blood test proven" celiac disease? will you try him gluten free even if the tests come back negative? do you feel like you need your doctor's approval to try the...
  21. those test results aren't going to tell you anything about celiac.
  22. sounds more like an obsessive-complulsive behavior-----and OCD can run in families.
  23. which test kit do i need to order to bring to the doc?
  24. what do you get flare-ups of that you take prednisone for? sounds like you have more going on than just celiac disease. and you are right, celiac disease is NOT a wheat allergy. it is an autoimmune disease.
