ARCHIVED Do I Sound Glutened To You?
DingoGirl replied to Mtndog's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
AS Judy said.... Dang, Bev! I don't know.....can it be residul apartment stuff? Time will tell....so maybe that's the only way to know? Just give it a few more days and see? Wish you were feeling better, though, you have really had a rough time of it. Um, you're not preggers, are you? Yup, also putting you back on the prayer list...... -

DingoGirl replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Christine - I echo what everyone else has said....wow...such a major thing - the boyfriend doesn't sound so supportive though, and you do need all the support you can get. Hugs. Rachel - can't believe you're still waiting (and keeping US all waiting!) Nashville - the most fantastic city! The travel stop thing is such a good idea - we must come... -
ARCHIVED Anyone Take Elavil For Sleep Or Pain?
DingoGirl replied to jenvan's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Jen...I"m stalking you A good friend takes Elavil for her spastic bowels, can you believe it? She's NOT Celiac - went at my suggestion to my own wonderful GI - she really has spastic bowels due to nerves - he did every test. She has a lot of stress in her past and in her life, so he put her on a low dose of this, and it slows down her pooping and... -

OMG Jen....it's ancient history and I didn't even look at the date!! You must have been so confused.... The dingos.....they worked with me at a winery for almost four years (Well, Tika did - Annie's arrival led to their being fired um, TWO big greeter dogs was a bit much)....Tika jerks her head away from the smell of alcohol - Annie - she would... -
ARCHIVED Gf Beer--i'll Let You Know How It Goes!
DingoGirl replied to jenvan's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I just met the new beer maker from Bard's, at the Celiac conference at Stanford last weekend. Tasted it - bought a six-pack - it is quite good and tastes like real beer! (um, there is LOTS and LOTS of beer in my past, not Miller light - blah - and I think I should know ). I was so excited! Drank one at my friend's and I felt like a normal person...... -

DingoGirl replied to Mtndog's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Well guess what Dr. Smarty-Smart ......Tika (aka Stinker) has already in fact WRITTEN two books (with her nanny) - the first, wildly popular "Tika's Day Out" and then long-awaited followup "On The Road With Stinker." Yes, both presented to me on my birthday, and I cried at each one. So she actually already knows how to read. Annie.....try as you... -

Vincent - what are BS changes? oh wait....blood sugar...duh. just answered my own question. You have said that you get shaky without carbs....but I am wondering, are you getting enough protein?

ARCHIVED For Those Of You With Dogs
DingoGirl replied to lonewolf's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
This cracks me up....I used the rolled up newspaper to train, it was quite effective (I gave a gentle swat on the rump)....but sometimes in a hurry I grap a newspapaer and roll it to swat a fly. oh my gosh....this gives the dogs a nervous breakdown, I forget every time...and they run back and hide in the back room, or go outside and hide by the back fence... -
ARCHIVED For Those Of You With Dogs
DingoGirl replied to lonewolf's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
This is quite normal behavior. My older girl (12) LOVES to play fetch, always has, but even as a puppy would just play with whatever was thrown and for limited time....as she got older she learned to bring it back. But.....even now, she HATES to drop the ball, likes to play keepaway with me. My younger girl, whom I found on the highway when she was about... -
ARCHIVED How Tall Are You All?
DingoGirl replied to Kaycee's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Am just shy of 5' 7" - the height must come from my dad's side as mom and maternal relatives/ancestors are quite short. But....my dad did die of colon cancer at 56, someone recently said to me "oh, so he died of Celiac!" and I do think he had it....they are tall and very thin on his side of the family.... -

Jerri - I know that fatigue and when you're in it, EVERYTHING is impossible, not the least of which are the acquisition and preparatin of food....it's staggeringly difficult and I also hate to cook.

DingoGirl replied to Mtndog's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Well......MY House of TError was a terrible thing (Carla - you read it! ) and resulted in what we fondly know as Susie's Nervous Breakdown.

oh you guys....House of Terror is an awful, awful story...don't want to take over this thread....actually would require more like a book to tell what happened and how it changed my life - no, changed ME forever - and not in good ways.
