ARCHIVED Does Everyone Have Testing Before Trying Diet?
loco-ladi replied to elmuyloco5's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
**~~**raises hand**~~** Diet only here as well, however I do have a couple things to add...

ARCHIVED Does Gluten Affect Your Depression?

Not sure what places you have near you but I found outback had a gluten-free menu online you could search some of your fav places to go and see if they have one online, or can even call and talk to the manager of your favorite place and explain your situation they may be able to fix something special for you.

ARCHIVED Trouble W/lay's Plain Chips?
loco-ladi replied to horsefarmer4's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Never looked to see what plant mine are manufactured in.... have a small issue but I think its more oil related than anything else as I also get the same thing when I make food at home I try only to eat a handful and have no problems however if I eat more, the problem increases.

ARCHIVED I Want To Prove To Doc That One Must Eat Gluten Before Blood Tests
loco-ladi replied to Karagirl's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Personally I dont think I would be as nice as you and want to explain to him why... nicely. I do believe he would have heard my thoughts on the matter right after he opened his mouth and all the bull flew out (lol) But then again I have had my fair share of foolish male doctors tell me I am wrong, granted sometimes I am but that doesn't give them any... -
ARCHIVED Is There Such Thing As False Positive?
loco-ladi replied to ElseB's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms

ARCHIVED Roanoke Newspaper Article
loco-ladi replied to lovegrov's topic in Publications & Publicity
Well, on the bright side it is at least a newspaper article that alot of people might see and read and find out they also may have this...... if nothing else all those millions of hypocondriacs appearing at their doctors offices will serve to also educate the doctors and hopefully will find a few that have been undiagnosed....... On the other hand the... -

Its not uncommon to have minor setbacks during not only your first few weeks but it will continue for a long time to come.... 6 years down the road you will become complacient about company "A" and stop reading their label each time you purchace their product and oooops they changed the recipe to now include gluten... it happens and we get to deal with... -
ARCHIVED It's Not celiac disease, So What Could It Be?
loco-ladi replied to threedee's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I agree, if YOU need to assure yourself that the gluten-free diet is what is causing the more positive changes in your life even with the negative medical test, go ahead eat gluten see how you feel, if you have no changes then great for you, if however you again start to expirience the setback and other issues you had before then you have to decide if you... -
ARCHIVED Help Accidently Glutened My Son
loco-ladi replied to mac8005's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I agree on the vomiting not helping unless its very close to when ingested... then it will only make the amount smaller rather than stop the symptoms altogether.... not to mention sometimes just thinking about doing that sends shivers up my spine, never have been able to force myself to do that... I also believe I recall you said your child was 10....... -
