ARCHIVED Envelopes
blueeyedmanda replied to nannyb's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I use the glue stick while at work, it works great. I have never been a big licker because I am always the clumsy one who got her tongue/lips cut at home, Hubbie does the bills and mailing so I can't help whether or not they contain anything. I just have heard from most people they have wheat so I figured it wasn't worth the problems. Besides, its not as... -

ARCHIVED Teen Fights For Right To Pick Cancer Treatment....
blueeyedmanda replied to AndreaB's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff

My hair grew back, it stopped falling out rapidly almost instantly once I went gluten-free. I was breathing the sign of relief. It really scared me when my hair started coming out in chunks.

I have braces and have used it with no problems. -
I used to be a lab tech and it was called B12 and like someone suggested have the folate checked as well. It can be run off the same vile of blood. 98% of the time I saw Dr's ordering those tests together. RBC is not something that would show if your B12 levels are high/low. RBC just is looking at your blood counts in general, for the WBC if they are too...

Before I knew I had celiac my hair was literally falling out in handfuls in the shower and while I brushed it. I kept thinking I was tying it up on my head too tight.

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Graham Craker Thingys?
blueeyedmanda replied to Smunkeemom's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Nini-I love the grainless baker graham crackers! They are so good. I tried the EnerG ones and they were decent. The Grainless Baker melt in your mouth and they are thicker so they would be good for crumbling.
