oops - - - I meant to say........well, what's beyond emaciated? probably skeletal. I actually think her "medical release" reason was a nervous breakdown....... I bet the gluten-free diet would be very difficult in a jail situation - I mean, even hospitals can't get it right........and there's no money in the budget for food......so what would...

How exciting! well hmmmm.....DOES sound like a promising offer! so you're saying the dingos could frolic in the yard? we could call it Yellow Dog Bed and Breakfast. Or the Dingo DewDrop Inn.

Hi Lisa, just a quick comment on that, ALL foods lose some nutrition as molecular structure changes through cooking....but still maintain MOST of their nutritional value.

ARCHIVED Wheat Field With Crows By Vincent Van Gogh
DingoGirl replied to Ken70's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
that is a crackup. I don't think he *knew* at all that wheat was killing him, just as I and many of us didn't know......but it WAS killing him and so the great irony is that he painted his killer while NOT knowing it was his killer. When I have more time, I will write a small treatise on bipolar. It took decades of my life....and it really did... -

DingoGirl replied to Ken70's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
oh my gosh - - - YOU just wrote that, and it shows up??? that's a riot. well, since we're on the subject, I'll gently ask you to correct your typo... it's Celiac disease - - - not Celiac's, not Celiacs (unless you're talking about more than one - as in, "see those two Celiacs over there)...... sorry, just a huge pet peeve of mine. -
ARCHIVED Wheat Field With Crows By Vincent Van Gogh
DingoGirl replied to Ken70's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
HI Ken, and welcome. I have always been fascinated w/ Van Gogh's story, having been a painter most of my life - esp. drawn to the fauvist, expressionist, and post-impressionist periods of art. I was also diagnosed bipolar years ago, struggled like hell with that......and now 1.5 years gluten-free, I don't really struggle with it any more. There... -
ARCHIVED Mannatech?
DingoGirl replied to Cheri A's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Yes, Grey, I thought the same thing after reading the above sentence.... I have heard outrageous claims by Mannetech, and this complete kook of a man that I know was promoting them also. Claiming they could cure Downs, Celiac, you name it...there was a cure. Sorry if I seem abrasive or strident - - just hearing the word Mannatech makes me bristle. If... -

Excellent work, Donna! Um, Tom, yeah I"ve been through the "Algernon Affect" for over half my life. It was called.....bipolar disorder. Up and down....up and down.....until in the last few years, there were no ups....until Celiac dx. and now - - there are downs but they are few, MUCH farther between, and don't last nearly as long......

ARCHIVED Mannatech?
DingoGirl replied to Cheri A's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Mannatech is a big scam, and they actually make false claims about all kinds of things, including nobel prize bestowance, and the fact that glyconutrients can cure ANYTHING. DON"T waste your money! Check this out: Open Original Shared Link -

ARCHIVED Back Pain Gone Since Gluten-free!
DingoGirl replied to Cyathea's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Ditto - same question for me! I have never heard of back pain going away from removing gluten. In fact, my back pain worsens as I age -- has nothing to do with gluten removal - - there is misalignment of discs, spine compression, and severe sciatica..... while nearly everything ELSE has improved in my life going gluten-free , the back pain is a constant...
