This restaurant advertises it has celiac friendly options so we decided to check it out... I highly recommend it and it was so awesome not having to ask for a separate menu or to explain in detail what celiac was. There were little symbols designating gluten free, vegan, vegetarian. The food was excellent and you can log on to "the river 93.9" and order...

ARCHIVED Size Seven In The Morning, Twelve At Night...
Kristen2Denise replied to elye's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi my sister has been really suffering with this problem too, although she's been gluten free for 2 years now. She jokes that she looks pregnant! She's started drinking green tea, one of her friends suggested it, and it's definitely helped. I figure it's worth a try. Good luck! -
ARCHIVED Gluten Free Pantry Chocolate Truffle Brownie Mix
Kristen2Denise replied to terps19's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I've tried a bunch of the gluten free pantry stuff - the brownies are amazing, the pie crust is great but a little crumbly, but who cares? The ginger spice cake is awesome, I added shredded carrots, and walnuts and frosted it with cream cheese frosting. I also made chocolate chip muffins with the muffin mix and they were awesome too! Its a great line of... -
ARCHIVED Celiac Disease With Constipation?
Kristen2Denise replied to gointribal's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
They kept telling me to take fiber and freaking metamucil too!!! My c was soooo awful and my stomach was bloated and distended and my doctor just kept telling me it was IBS and it took months and me finally bawling hysterically to get a referral to a specialist. Celiacs have different symptoms and doctors need to be aware of that! Demand that your doctor... -

Gluten free pantry pie crust mix is definitely the best!!! -
Hi I went to the doctors about night sweats and my doctor is toying with the idea of candidas... I have been trying to research it and it sort of makes sense. I wish I had more advice!

ARCHIVED Anyone In Ma?
Kristen2Denise replied to gfmelissa's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Hi I live in Holyoke and go to school in Northampton. There's plenty of gluten free stuff around here. Lots of restaurants are pretty informed about celiac and gluten free. There is a natural food store called cornucopia right in downtown Noho but it's sort of pricey but there's Whole foods and trader joe's real close in Amherst. Let me know what other... -
ARCHIVED Urinary Tract Infections
Kristen2Denise replied to EmilyLMT's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I have had several UTI's and yeast infections and now my new doctor who is trained in both Western and Eastern medicine is suggesting its "candidas" possibly systemic. I've been reading about it a lot and that would make sense - does anyone else know much about this? -

ARCHIVED Non-celiac Gluten Intolerance
Kristen2Denise replied to katerinvon's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
My sister was diagnosed as gluten intolerant about two years ago and her symptoms were so different than mine that I never even thought to check that out until a year later. However, her symptoms were awful - she had arthritis in her hands so bad she would cry and she was always in pain, at 24 she had already developed osteoporosis - sorry I can't spell... -

I was ready to jump the chef it was so good. People in that area are...

ARCHIVED Gluten-free Beer
Kristen2Denise replied to Sally Palmer's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
My fiance went to Canada a few weeks and got me La Messagere- it's excellent and he likes it too, although at $13 dollars a six pack he is not allowed to drink it. I highly recommend it. The stores that I called around western mass and western ny said Bards Tale was exploding,etc. but that it was very popular and they were all hoping to get more! I found... -
ARCHIVED Paxil Withdrawl
Kristen2Denise posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi I know this is a topic somewhere on the message boards but i couldn't find it. I'm not sure if this is a repeat question or not, but I was reading here about people being able to go off some of their meds since being gluten free. I'm almost at one year of gluten-free so I thought I should try to lessen my dose of paxil - I have gone about a week of decreasing... -

ARCHIVED Urinary Tract Infections
Kristen2Denise replied to EmilyLMT's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I recommend cranberry tablets - its much easier to take than drinking cranberry juice and it's helped me. I used to get them all the time, but since going gluten free I've only had one. -

Kristen2Denise replied to chrissy's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
My younger sister is gluten intolerant but wasn't diagnosed with celiac and my older sister was tested and is negative, my mom is negative as well. We don't know about my dad's family since we aren't in touch with any of them.
