  1. Happy birthday and may God bless you today!

  2. Sooo.....how did your appt go? Good news?!?!
  3. NoGluGirl; You would think we have the same parents!!! Since my Mom left my Dad and had to move in with me and my family, I feel like I'm living with her! Not the other way around! She only pays us $200/month, for groceries,rent,bills etc... Nice cheap life for her. In the meantime I have to cut back on what I have to eat becasue my food is so much more...
  4. Thank you, reading this post made me realize that I'm not the only one who can't get their family to "GET IT!" Maybe they just can't? I don't know. My family is so stubborn (German) that the only way they would ever understand is if they each had my symptoms. They would actually have to feel it to believe it...or me. Who cares anymore, really. This is something...
  5. Thanks Carla! Actually my Mom had to move in becasue she had nowhere else to go, she left my Dad. She saw how how sick I was before I was diagnosed, commented on how much weight I've lost, told me she would help and support me anyway she could. Then I got diagnosed. Everything changed. I guess Celiac is not serious enough for her. She watched me roll on the...
  6. I've been reading alot here and I'm so happy to see that most of you have supporting families. Your mom's try not to gluten you, other members of your family take extra care for you. I think that's great!!! The more support we get the better we feel Maybe my family is just wierd, selfish is more like it. Noone takes what I have seriously...except my...
  7. Thanks for your replies. There's alot of support on this site. What a great place to be! I don't feel out of place here. I was diagnosed last year by having an endoscopy and colonoscopy at the same time. My Celiac was confirmed by a biopsy. I have not had any blood tests. Just before my tests because the dr didn't know what was wrong with me. I lost 90...
  8. I was diagnosed with Celiac last year. Wow this is hard...espeacially when you LOVE food!! I have not been back to my dr's office...although I did call my gastro dr's office they told me there was no need for a follow up. I was told when I was diagnosed that I needed another endoscopy(sp) after 6 months. Well it's been over a year...still suffering...and...
  9. Angel, you sound just like me. I feel so alone in this. But since I have found this site I find myself comming here when I feel that way, and it helps. I understand your reactions...I fainted about a month ago. Out cold outside, my dog woke me up. I feel like this is taking over my life. The more time I spend here reading how everyone else is dealing with...
  10. We used to eat out alot because we were both working and have 2 teenage boys. Now that I stay home I have some more time to prepare meals, and focus more on what I should be eating. It does feel better having bananas fall off your cart rather than bags of chips!
  11. Dad/German Mom/German Grandparents/German I was born in Toronto, Canada....still here!
  12. I was researching the ingredients of the anti deppressant my dr has had me on for years. I was curious if it might have gluten in it. I found this very disturbing article on it's side effects...very simalir to some celiac reactions. I'm adding in the section I read and the link of the site on the bottom. I haven't found out if it is actually gluten free...
  13. I HATE what this disease does to my body...and my life!!! I really don't know how my husband puts up with me! I'm so moody and always feel sick and tired. He has told me how it hurts him to see me feeling like this all the time. He's very supportive & my best friend. He's one of the main reasons I'm trying to stay gluten free. I think if I ate...

    WOW! I'm so excited that I can help you. I'm new to Celiac, but I was told from my gasto dr that you CAN get glutened by inhaling it. He told me that if I were to bake something for my family with regular flour, if I inhale it, the flour particles go into your nose, down your throat and you actually digest it. Therefore, you react to it. Now I don't know...
  15. Thank you all very much for your advice. I feel soooo much better being a member on this site. I don't feel out of place. So many things have been changing over the past year...I think you are all right and I should focus more on my health than her feelings. But I always wonder if maybe I'm over reacting to the cooking thing....only because I know her situation...
  16. Susan, it's great to hear that your day went well. I had months of D, finally had to quit work becasue I was calling in all the time. Never knew why I felt so sick, didn't know why it would happen some days and other days were ok. I spent months going back to dr for tests...and missed a lot of work. Running to the washroom wasn't easy either...I was a...
