  1. My new favorite is the bread that Whole Foods makes... The brand is The Gluten-Free Bakehouse, so far, I would have to say their bread is the closest I have found to "real" bread.... My personal favorite is the sundried tomato and roasted garlic bread.... Good Luck! Laurie
  2. How long have you been following the gluten-free diet? I know I became lactose intolerant shortly before I got my actual diagnosis of celiac disease, but after a few months on the gluten-free diet, I was able to eat dairy again with no problem...perhaps this could be true in your case even if you are only gluten intolerant or something like that? Laurie
  3. Well having a diagnosis must be a huge relief!!! But yes, learning how to deal with that diagnosis is a whole other story!! It does get easier though, I promise! I personally found that reading books really helped me, one of my favorites is called: Against the Grain, it is a great book written from a personal perspective that made me feel not so alone...
  4. Hi James - I am so sorry to hear all the health problems with your wife and son! What a struggle.... Now, granted I'm not a doctor, but has your wife experimented with the gluten-free diet to see if she feels better? I know from this forum (and experience), that sometimes your body is the best indicator.... because many people have had inconclusive...
  5. When my doctor diagnosed me, it was only with the blood tests. My levels came back indicating celiac, I never had a biopsy. I responded really well to the gluten-free diet and I just went with that, as you said...your body knows best!! Good luck! Laurie
  6. I agree that you need to do what is best for you.... If you are not feeling well, then you are not feeling well. All of your friends should understand that because everyone has been sick before, regardless if it is related to celiac disease or not... : ) Hope you have a great weekend either way! Laurie
  7. KAITI - REALLY?!?!?! I do not think I have ever heard before that celiac's often have more than just celiac.... Does that mean we should all get tested for many other things?!?!
  8. I have a book called Against the Grain that has a bunch of pages in the back that describes the celiac diet requirements in tons of languages....I have found it a great resource!! The book itself is also AWESOME!! I read it right after I was diagnosed and still refer back to it often....I highly recommend it... Laurie
  9. I hope you and your family had a great trip to Las Vegas.....I am going there this weekend and was wondering if you (or anyone else!) could offer some suggestions for eating out on the strip? I will surely check out the hard rock hotel.... Thanks, Laurie
  10. Hey Couler - I miss bagels alot too!!! What is the one you have found that you like? THE THINGS I MISS MOST: PIZZA Cinnamon Rolls Chinese food burritos Laurie
  11. Hi all! I am going to be traveling to Honolulu and Maui, Hawaii soon and wanted to see if any of you guys have suggestions for getting around there in the "restaurant scene." I will, of course, be bringing lots of edible goodies of my own and will research stores ahead of time....Any info would be greatly appreciated! Laurie
  12. Hi Judy - I just registered for the forum today and noticed you are looking for a good sandwich bread...the best I have found is a bread mix by "The Gluten Free Pantry," called "Favorite Sandwich Bread." You have to make it yourself but it's the closest thing that I have found to real bread and is really pretty good! I know you posted awhile...
