    Yes, it is allowed. I'd say the majority of us, if not all, take some vitamin or mineral supplements. Some more than others. It's also good for your doc to do a blood test to show if you are deficient in anything, which is quite common with malabsorption issues due to your gut damage. Then you know more specifically what to supplement.

    I sure did. I had no idea what i was doing 9 years ago and things weren't labeled as clearly, so I had to keep track of what I reacted to! I highly encourage a diary for food and reactions.

    We've been purchasing premade dosa batter at the Indian spice store and I've been using it as a tasty bread along side curry dishes that my husband makes. Very filling and easy to make! It's kinda a fermented Indian pancake.

    Keep eating gluten. No more is necessary than a piece or two a day .

    Go to ennis 's profile page and read his story in the meantime. personally, like many of us, I couldn't have milk for the first year or so.... now I enjoy it again. listen to your body and pull what bothers you. Also start a food diary if you haven't already. Note the foods in detail and how you feel. Sometimes reactions don't happen for a couple...

    Oh my, your rash looks similar to the dh rash I used to get. Don't stop eating gluten and get an appt. with a dermatologist asap to get a biopsy. Make sure they do it properly with a sample done in a clear area next to the lesion. good luck and keep us updated. Welcome to the forum!

    Sounds like it's find a new doctor time.... where are you in Nc? There's lots of great hospitals and doctors associated with them here.

    Wow, I didn't realize our temp really went up during a hot flash! How amazing! since my hysterectomy in 2008, I've had hot flashes nearly every day until this summer. Recently started an estrogen patch to help them. Forgot to put one on in June and haven't used them since. I used to be able to feel my ovulation, but that hasn't happened in about a year...

    Sounds like you were going to say they were going to use you like a science experiment to learn new and interesting things from. I do so hope though that you learn something interesting that could help you.

    If you haven't checked it out yet, go here.... Open Original Shared Link It's live kittens in Iceland living in a dollhouse. They switch them out when they are bigger and get adopted. These guys are 9 weeks old I think and so super crazy when they aren't sleeping. Note there are 4 different live cams.

    Thanks for the advice! hey, how does one know they have hashis vs. simply hypothyroidism? Ok so maybe I'll do the coffee thing anyways. My pharmacist who I just called a little while ago said it was all about consistency. So if you take with coffee, always take with coffee. no big worries about the big menopause. I think I'm done with mine...

    Maybe when I naturally wake up to pee would be good. It's like clockwork. my dose is 25mg, talk about the doc being cautious, huh? Anyone else taking such a low dose? Thank you PinkyGurl!
  16. Victoria1234
    So my new med is generic levothyroxine for hypothyroidism. it says on the internet to take it first thing, 30 minutes before food, with 8oz of water. usually my day begins with coffee, which I put milk and sugar in. Is this considered food? Will this be bad? Or should I take the pill and go back to sleep for 30 minutes? I've also been taking...

    Thank you thank you! I'm so excited and I have you and this wonderful board to thank! If it wasn't for you guys I wouldn't have thought there was an issue. Just growing old!

    You yourself said the dizziness came back with gluten. you said you looked back to your journal and didn't see dizziness for 4 months. please reread this thread, it might be enlightening...

    I was intrigued by the cellulose thread and googled it. Found this link Open Original Shared Link heres the part on the page I found scary. Pls let me know if it's a good site or cray cray, ok? It's about halfway down on the linked page if you want to see it in context. Thanks. Ingredient Red Flags for Gluten-Free Commercial Products Processing...

    Omg ennis! How enlightening!
  25. Victoria1234
    You might decide for awhile not to eat out at all..... check the Find Me gluten-free app and if you must, go only to places well reviewed by celiacs. You've got to take care of yourself!
