ARCHIVED 9 months gluten free
Awol cast iron stomach replied to cstark's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Hello. In regards to dry spices I chucked them all due to the high prevalence of being produced in a shared wheat facility. Extreme I know but it's a long row since my glutening of March 2016- restaurants explained gluten-free order. Very distrustful right now . I grow fresh herbs right now in midwest summer in my yard. I think i will have to obtain a... -
ARCHIVED Question about Biopsy Staining
Awol cast iron stomach replied to BergieF's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hello. I have not heard of this in particular but was eager to read your post. I hope someone knowledgeable on the topic will chime in. I too gave up gluten years ago being a former IBS diagnosed individual two decades back and finding increasing issues that fit celiac. I will not do the challenge due to my decades of potential misdiagnosis and further potential... -
ARCHIVED Fish oil and help
Awol cast iron stomach replied to Suzann's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hi Karen g. Shared some great starting ideas for leads. I cannot suggest a particular brand but can explain my knowledge and why it is a challenge for you. Fish oils even when processed and molecular distilled etc. Still require an antioxidant to maintain its stability and freshness for shelf life. In the industry this often is from vitamin E which... -
ARCHIVED What would you do?
Awol cast iron stomach replied to Karag's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I'm with the other posters. Bloating is a huge symptom for me. Most are going to say don't take anyone off gluten until diagnosis, but I can tell you I have spent decades being dismissed and slipping through cracks. So I am conflicted on the adult level, we got dismissed and classified as difficult patients long ago, but in this day and age I am more hopeful... -
"I got this vaccination in 2009 when I was 20 and it completely altered my life. Made my celiac disease so much worse, sleep 15-18 hours a day, SIBO, it has completely altered my life since getting this vaccination. My doctor has two twin girls about my age and they both have digestion problems after receiving gardasil Thank you I have a young daughter...

ARCHIVED Gluten does WHAT to the brain?
Awol cast iron stomach replied to Gemini's topic in Publications & Publicity
"Wondering what kind of life my brother could have had - if he had celiac - constantly haunts me" My sympathies that is just tragic, as this story is. I hope you are at peace knowing you are aware of your celiac and help so many lost, scared, and confused celiacs here. It can never bring back your brother but I hope it can give soften some of what... -
ARCHIVED So I've been glutened....
Awol cast iron stomach replied to Jmg's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Jmg I am sorry to hear you are unwell. You have been so kind and helpful to me on the boards here. You deserve the time to rant too. Everyone's suggestion of probiotic is helpful. I have taken them since the 1990's in spurts as needed but was told by my DC after this March glutening I should take it daily "for life". My local store ran out, (I buy... -
ARCHIVED Scoliosis
Awol cast iron stomach replied to summerteeth's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Me too. Diagnosed as a child in the early 1980's but again no real suggestions for treatment. I was not severe enough for a brace. My back issues get bad if not gluten-free, stiff lower back etc when I get glutened last 2-3 months after exposure. I have been seeing DC' s since my mid 20's they help. I can tell pretty quickly with my response if they DC is... -
pots ARCHIVED POTS and Celiacs has anyone had this like this?
Awol cast iron stomach replied to sandybaltimore's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hello. I get symptoms of pots when gluten is in my life. The palpitations are rare but once glutened (since being gluten free) milk can bring on paliptations. Now knowing gluten is bad for me I can recall as a child having mild spinning like sensations but as a kid I thought it was me spinning, hanging upside down, and hand stands as a causative feature... -
ARCHIVED 1 year of hell...Celiac?
Awol cast iron stomach replied to SillyWilly's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hello hope you are on your way to a proper diagnosis ASAP. After glutening I get issues with lightheadedness and to me low blood sugar. I find eating a small snack every 2-3 hours helps. With glutening I lose the ability to handle many foods initially so dairy is out of question for me. I find carrots, Apple's, and peanut butter are safe for me and effective... -
ARCHIVED Peripheral Neuropathy question
Awol cast iron stomach replied to RMJ's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi I hope you get well as soon. This is one of my symptoms over the past 4 years and I would consider mild. The tingling can be frightening, then annoying, and in time hopefully will improve and just be an indicator of exposure. Try your best to limit exposure. That is the goal to respect ourselves and our bodies. I get bouts of tingling in my right... -
ARCHIVED Bob's Red Mill coconut flour
Awol cast iron stomach replied to dania's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I use BRM baking powder and xanthum gum powder. I will try more as time permits. My understanding is their quality control measures, practices and records helped lead the way in industry improvements for record keeping, designated manufacturing lines, and most importantly sourcing. They did have a recall in 2013 for sorghum powder that was sold geographically... -
"Aside from the arguments you quote I'd bet there would be significant financial forces opposed to widespread screening" Bingo. This is always a potential factor within the industry. The time, money, cost etc of reformulation and loss of existing stock of items would be a large deterrent to make dramatic shifts in short period of time. To accommodate...

ARCHIVED IM SO SCARED
Awol cast iron stomach replied to Micheal123's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Hi Michael, I hope your testing leads you to more a definitive answer and you are well on your way to improved health. I am on this journey too being formerly told IBS but with my husband's support realize it might be gluten. I got glutened In March and have had a range of emotions as I try to process this. Try to focus on the relief you will experience... -
ARCHIVED Celian Diet & Breast Lumps?
Awol cast iron stomach replied to a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
"it's either fibrocystic breast disease (really common and totally benign), a cyst (also common), or a fibroadenoma- which is a benign breast tumor." I know this is an old post but I had to comment. With all this info on here that fits me to a T, how have I been misdiagnosed for so long? fibroadenoma-check another symptom. Really no one could ever look... -
."If you've worked out gluten is a problem and you can't face the challenge then that should be sufficient for those closest to you. After my negative endoscopy the GE told me to avoid gluten for life anyway, so there's not much practical difference between a diagnosis of coeliac or ncgi." Thank again much wisdom from you and the others. I find you very...

Hi squirmingitch yes my cousin does know to have 1st degree relatives tested. She shared that information too. As of now just her and likely me. I am her first cousin i.e. 3rd degree relative. Well it's tough to say but one of my most challenging relatives who is the most dismissive or "forgetful" of my gluten-free lifestyle is a nurse not in the...

ARCHIVED Celiac possibility
Awol cast iron stomach replied to ohwowcharlie's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
You are not Crazy. I ask the same thing but know the answer. You know it too. I think many people ask the same. It's time to validate yourself. No time for any apprehension or self doubt.Yes I very much think it is possible you have celiac. Your first paragraph sounds all too familiar. Please try and get this diagnosed quickly and as easily as possible. The... -

ARCHIVED Celiac - Not yet diagnosed but feel like I'm dying.
Awol cast iron stomach replied to Dylan C's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Thank you JMG I will take your advice. I have not felt supported which is why my cousin told me to seek the experts- you. It has been 4 decades of misdiagnosis. Too long. -
ARCHIVED Celiac - Not yet diagnosed but feel like I'm dying.
Awol cast iron stomach replied to Dylan C's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I am still currently on the path of diagnosis too. We are not dying just have triggered the immune system into hypersensitivity even to our own self. You are not alone and I wish you a quick recovery and better health. I'll share my story. I have had issues all my life. I was constipated my whole life and had several issues over the years that someone...
