I am a celiac, and am going to run the Humboldt County, CA marathon in May 2007. I want to raise money for a particular Celiac research organization. Any tips on how to set it up? It is my first marathon, and I have no idea where to start concerning the fundraising.

ARCHIVED Gluten And Menstration
italiana1981 replied to Nova-Gryphon's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
If one is gluten sensitive, the autoimmune reaction caused by the ingestion of gluten has the possibility of affecting every bodily system, tissue, and organ. Therefore, an affect on fertility, menstruation, weight, etc. is highly likely. Personally, I had menstrual irregularlities since I began my period at age 10. I have been gluten free for only... -
I was diagnosed in March-and cannot stop cheating. I have not been able to go two to three weeks without eating gluten. I am in Italy right now travelling, and took a 4 day trip to Rome by myself (I am staying in Italy with Family). During my trip to Rome, I fell off the gluten free wagon big time! My family knows about my Celiac disease, so when I...

I also have some strange red bumps on my face-but they do not look like these pictures. there are no blisters, just bumps. also, they do not itch. I did eat gluten last week, but the bumps did not show up until a week later. One of my eyelids is also puffy. Could this be a gluten reaction that will pass, or could it be the beginning stage of DH...

I am leaving for Italy this Saturday. I will be there two months. I just started a blog here at celiac.com about my travels. I am gluten/casein free and will be staying with my family.

ARCHIVED Menstrual Irregularities
italiana1981 replied to a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
I got my period when I was 10 years old-and ever since then have gone several years without getting my period! No doctors could ever find a reason why. They would put me on BC pills, which gave me nasty mood swings. I just go my enterolab test last week, and have not had gluten since. Currently, I have not gotten my period in about five months and... -

ARCHIVED Enterolab Result
italiana1981 replied to gabby's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I had the opposite problem with my enterolab test-I had a malabsorption of 96, which means I do not have it! However, I tested positive for HLS DQ2&3, gluten sensitivity, &casein sensitivity. I also have serious hair loss, amehorrea, and daily diarrhea. I am a 24 year old woman. Has anyone else had hair loss & amenhorrea as symptoms...
