Growing up in the great state of Texas I remember having snow days once in awhile. My dad still lives in TX and before he retired he did auto claims adjustments. He loved snow days, lol. Now living in Missouri the kids have been out of school 4 days this week, one of my employees is about to go nuts. When we used to ave snow days in rural West Texas we...

My dad and his wife always send a Christmas box to us from Texas. Sometimes, ok most of the time, the gifts are the normal jewerly, clothes, etc. But this year there was large basket wrapped for me. When I opened it I about cried, it had gluten free foods in it. That itself was nice but the items in it were ones that I had looked at when we were in Texas...

Can I get the recipe for sugar cookies, please -
I freeze alot. I wear several layers of clothing all day. Mine is because of my severe anemia. I get teased some but I just shrug it off. My normal temperature is 97.2. Its kinda funny when I'm sick I have a fever at 98.6 The only suggestions I have is layering clothes and hot tea.

What I do is tell my server I am on a very restricted diet and that I can have absolutely no bread products anywhere near my food. I ask if they will be able to make "whatever" that way or if I need to leave. I ask in a freindly way and they usually get their manager and they will talk to me. I have only had one manager say that they couldn't fix the item...

ARCHIVED English Oats
jennyj replied to jennyj's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks for the info. I don't think I'm ready to try it. I like feeling good. -
A guy I share info and recipes with came into our store today and said he was going to make some oatmeal cookies this weekend. I asked him if oats weren't on our no-no list and he said not English oats sold in bulk by HyVee stores. I am so careful and do not want to try them unless I know for sure. He likes to "cheat" and I don't know. Can anyone answer...

ARCHIVED I'm Back
jennyj replied to jennyj's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Thanks. What they think happened to me was I got a very bad case of the stomach flu which of course caused a nasty case of D. Then the D caused the damage in my small intestine to bleed and cause the significant blood loss I had. My hemoglobin is 8.7 as of today and the doc wants to see if it goes up by Wednesday or if I will need blood the next week.... -
I finally can be back with you all. I have really missed things the last two weeks but I have been very ill. I have had an iron infusion and waiting to see if I need a blood transfusion. I have gotten very familiar with my local hospital and staff. And to top it all off when I went to my doctor the first time last week I found out he is leaving at the...

My doctor's nurse finally called. She said that what she could tell me is that my iron level that was supposed to be between 15 and 55 was at 9. My hemoglobin had dropped below 10 and my hematacrit?? was at 20 something ( I do not remember) My stool tests came back negative for salmonella, e coli, and parasites. It did show signs of blood loss (duh)....

Thank you for all the kind thoughts and words. I still haven't heard from the doctor on my specimens or my blood work. It is so frustrating to sit and wait for them to call. I did manage to eat a little rice last night. I will keep you all updated. Thanks again for the support, it really helps.

I wrote a few days ago that I had been severly ill. I went to the doctor yeterday and today. I haven't eaten for 5 days and am still sipping some fluids. He said my hemoglobin is 10. I have had since Monday (sorry a little gross) very watery black stools. I had to take specimens in today and am waiting to hear the results. He started me on Promethazine...

I have been very sick since Saturday. I wasn't glutened, I think it is just a severe case of the stomach flu. I had a fever (103.9), muscle pain, D, lethargy, and stomach pain. Today I can finally get up and around. I have not eaten anything in 2 days but have managed to drink some. I have a dr. appt. already scheduled for tomorrow so I just need to...
