    Good for you!! I gave up trying to convince my family. My Mom did get tested, but my Dad & sister are both burying their heads in the sand despite having obvious signs. Heck, my sister still questions my "diganosis" and the need to stay away from gluten.

    WOOHOO!!! I have been wondering about this! I am buying some today at the store!

    So glad to hear that she is home!!

    Poor little guy! Our Ped has always told us to just keep an eye on mouth sores. When DS split his lip and had to have stitches, we did have to buy this rinse for him to use, but I can't remember the name of it. It was similar to a mouthwash and we used a Q-tip to apply it. Hope he is feeling better soon!

    Thank you very much for responding. I am going to pass this info along to her. I hope that she will give the diet a try and see if she feels any different.

    Thank you. That is exactly what I am concerned about. For myself, I react to any gluten; DS on the other hand, not sure if the reacts or not, he has only been on the diet 2 weeks. If I find anything new out, I will make sure to post as well.

    Wow.....talk about lots of different answers! LOL!! There really isn't anything of theirs that I can't find a substitute for, so I guess I can just avoid them until I get more info. I will also call them on Monday and ask about the email response that I was sent. I am really beginning to depend on Kraft these days. Thanks to all who responded...

    They are gluten-free...I believe the website has info on this. MSG does not contain gluten, but does bother some people. Here is info from their website: Question: Does Johnsonville offer GLUTEN FREE PRODUCTS Answer: GLUTEN FREE PRODUCT LISTING BY CATEGORY LINKS JVL Fresh Grilling Original Bratwurst Cheddar Bratwurst Hot ‘n Spicy Bratwurst ...

Her panel came back as follows: Antigliadin IgG <4 normal Antigliadin IgA 7.7 (high) supposed to be <5 tTg <4 EMA NEGATIVE Total IgA 143 (supposed to be between 81- 463) Antireticulin antibody IgA with reflex to titer ~ negative Any insight?

    This happened to me after going gluten-free. I had been very regualr, then started having 18 day cycles, then 35 day cycles. There is no rhyme or reason to my cycles now. I have my tubes tied, so I am not pregnant. My OB/GYN ran all kinds of tests, nothing was out of the ordinary. I also have much worse PMS symptoms now, too. Not sure if that is related...

    Wow....great news!

    Thank you Peter. I have emailed them back about a few specific products that my son eats, so I will post those answers if and when I get them. I am going to make a note on my list of the companies you posted.

    July 26, 2006 Dear Kim, Thank you for contacting ConAgra Foods. We appreciate comments and questions from our consumers. We do not have a gluten free list of our products available at this time. The flour used in our products is often wheat flour and should be avoided by individuals with gluten sensitivities. The modified food starch used in...

    For a pie crust in the past I have used Pamela's Pecan shortbread cookies crushed and mixed with melted butter and some extra pecans....it was amazing! I bet you could use some of her other cookies, too, maybe one that would go with the PB/Choc pie. I use a gluten-free All purpose mix (recipe is Bette Hagman's) that I bought from Autentic Foods (I think...

    You have gotten some great advice here already! One thing I can add is that is you do want some safe rice cakes, try Lundberg, they are even labeled "Gluten-free". I haven't had any issues with them at all. Also, you could use romaine or green lettuce leaves to roll up sandwich fillings like tuna, chicken or egg salad. I just had a tuna lettuce wrap...

    Just checking in to see how you are feeling today. I hope that you can get in touch with your Dr and figure out a plan. I take Lexapro too and worry about how I am going to get off of it when I am ready to. Please update us and let us know how you are doing. ((((HUGS))))
  17. wolfie
    I google "going off Lexapro" and this is what I got: Open Original Shared Link It talks about several of the things you mentioned. Hope this helps!

    If you have a Meijer Grocery Store nearby, they have a listing of all of their Meijer Brand foods that are gluten-free on their website. It is a wonderful source and it is nice to buy store brand instead of more expsenive brands. Wal-mart doesn't have a list, but does label some of their Great Value brands gluten-free if they are. I have seen more...

    Let's see........ I don't eat a lot of specialty items, I stick mainly with foods that are naturally gluten-free, but when I do order or buy breads/treats, these are my favs: Kinnikinnick Hamburger Buns (no kidding, they are very close to "normal" buns) Kinnikinnick bagels Gluten-Free Pantry Favorite Sandwich Bread Gluten-free Pantry Chocolate Truffle...

    I ask b/c I tried one last night and while it had a good flavor, they were really hard. I am not sure if this is typical or if maybe we had a bad batch. MIL did find them at Odd Lots (or Big Lots) for $1.00, but they weren't expired, so that isn't it. I have seen them at my local natural food market too and they are in the same packaging.

    That is good to hear!! I will keep my eyes open for it! I found some Comfy Cuisine pizza at our Whole Foods and it was not very good. I ended up tossing it. I was very disappointed b/c I had heard good things about them. That is really only the 2nd thing that I have tossed in the 6 months I have been gluten-free. The first were some French Rolls from...

    I am interested to hear their response, b/c I have noticed all the things that frenchiemama said. I used to love their fries, though.

    These sound like my test results (antigliadin IgA was 5, antigliadin IgG was 55 and I had been on a low carb diet for almost 6 months). I went gluten-free on 1/12/2006 and I haven't felt this good in 10 years. There is no doubt in my mind that gluten is a huge issue for me. I didn't get the biopsy b/c I was already gluten-free, but the end result is the...

    I still haven't gotten a straight answer for Mrs. Butterworth's, but I think they are a Pinnacle food, too, right? I emailed specifically asking about Mrs. Butterworth b/c the dietician and I were talking about it. I stick with Aunt Jemima, although may give Kroger syrup a try. I did email Pinnacle again the other day and this is the response I got: ...

    We just saw one this past Monday that my son's GI recommended. She was extremely helpful, but I hear that is not the norm. This specific woman has been dealing with the gluten-free diet for 20 years. She is very knowledgeable. I did see a dietician when I first went gluten-free, she happened to be the one who figured out the whole gluten intolerance...
