The doctor wanted me to empty my stomach because the x-ray showed I had to much stuff in there. Well duh, because I just got done eating about 40 minutes before that!!

Daisy Duke-I tried that site and din't see anything(maybe just too tired after being in ER). I agree with you-that is a very good list and I go there all the time. Yup Kaeopectate is my friend since I can't Imidium(ended up in ER 2 years ago 5 times after having the big D and taking this. Told me not to take it any more cause that was causing the problems-I tend to not believe this, but I don't take it anymore.).

Jenny C.-Thanks for the info on Mylanta.

I am feeling better today- just have the big D after taking potassium tables. My levels were low so I take these horse pills for 3 days. Yucky!! Maybe tomorrow will be a better day.

Thanks for all the information.

I was wondering if this product was gluten-free? I was in the ER last night and they said to take milk of magnesia for my stomach. Or I could take maalox. I haven't found anything last night while searching and I thought I would ask before I head to work. Thanks.

Almond bark peanut cluster-just peanuts and bark, Turtles-I am trying this recipe-melting carmels then putting pieces of pecans in-letting this set up and then pouring chocolate bark over it. peanut brittle is okay-use my micro recipe and ingredients are okay. Just have a question on ritz type cracker for almond bark. Any ideas? My sister usually makes eggnog cookies and I am going to try to make tose too. Thanks for the help.

Nicki

I use to make all sorts of Christmas goodies. Now I am wondering what is gluten-free. This is my first Christmas gluten-free. I want to make almond bark peanut clusters, toffee, turtles, peanut brittle and other cookies. I haven't seen anything about these food items. Can anybody give me some insight on these? I don't really know about almond bark. I would probably get this from wal-mart. The brand is Plymouth Pantry. The ingredients are as follows: suggar(sugar,cornstarch), partially hydrogenated palm kernel oil,cocoa process with alkali, cocoa,soy lecithin(an emulsifier),artificial flavor,milk. The only thing that I would question is the artificial flavor. Thanks for any help.

Nicki

Thanks for the replies. I did see that Wal-Mart creamer is gluten-free and Sanka is a maxwell house product. I probably will call the company and find out if it is okay. Again thanks. Anyone else have any ideas?

I posted a question about coffe. I don't know where my post went to. I don't see it on the board at all. I'll try it again. What kinds of instant coffee ok okay for us to drink? I am making my own mixes for the holidays. Also what kinds of cappucino are okay? Thanks.

Nicki

Could someone tell my what instant coffe is safe to drink? I am making up coffee and cappuccino mixes to give away at Christmas and was wondering about the ingriedence. It calls for french vanilla cappuccino, creamer,coffee and powdered milk. I was wondering which brands do you like to use for instant coffee, creamer, and powdered milk. I don't drink any of this so I need some help please. Thanks a bunch.

Does anyone know if these are gluten-free? Chunky Monkey Milkshake has these ingred. listed: skim milk,water,sugar, cream,rice starch , banana puree, natural flavor, salt, carrageenan, cocoa(processed with alkali), annatto(color). choclate fudge brownie ingred.: skim milk, water,sugar,rice starch, cocoa(processes with alkali), natural flavor, carrageenan.

I don't see anything but the natural flavor. I haven't called because it is too late now.(just got home from the store). If they are not gluten-free my kids will love to drink this. Thanks for any info.

Nicki

Thanks for the answers. The lady doing this had information on paper and said that she has researched it because she has an uncle who is a celiac. I still don't want to try it. She did have free samples to try, I passed because I really didn't want the after effects(Didn't want to chance it). I have been feeling pretty good lately and I don't want to slide down the ladder!! I might try and see if I can find the other post. Again thanks for answering my question.

Nicki

They claim that their products are gluten-free. The person doing the demo meeting tonight said that the Celiac Sprue Association did testing and it was gluten free. I still don't know if I agree with that because the "veggie tablet" has barley and oats. Has anyone heard of this product? Any info would be greatly appreicative. Thanks.

Nicki

Jennas-auntie,

Thanks for the information. I sent you a pm. I am taking my gluten-free information along(still learning here) so that will help. I am thing about taking a toaster or getting a small george foreman grill to take along too. I do intend to have fun. Just still nervous. Thanks again.

Nicki

Corrine,

Thanks and I sent you a pm for that info. I am sooo nervous about going anywhere. I really don't need to get sick on vacation!!!

Hi everyone,

Can anyone help me find health food stores or restaurants in the SD area(near the Badlands/Mt Rushmore area) and the yellowstone area? We are staying over night in livingston,MT and a few other places in SD. We are taking our first vacation since I was DXed. I am taking a seperate cooler and tote with my things in it. I am thinging about taking these things: tuna, hard boiled eggs, nut thins, soy chips, cereal, PB, corn tortillas, cookies and muffins. Am I missing anything easy to take with me? I am a little bit worried about eating at different restuarants that I don't know anything about. I just hate having my family not go to eat out because of me. Any advise and help will he nice. I have gotten lots of things from these boards. Thanks in advance.

As in, had been used with gluten foods but had been washed kind of thing. I am thinking DH used that wooden spoon to stir regular macaroni with. After washing it, I then I used it to stir my hot juices with.

Nicki

Thanks for the quick answers. I am not that sensative so I don't know what would happen if I did eat it. I have been gluten-free for about 2 months now. Again thanks for the answers.

Nicki

I have canned some pickles, tomatoes and some beets from years past(last year and year before). My question is this: I used a metal pan and a wooden spoon that I am sure had glutuen on it. Would it hurt me to use the juice, pickles, etc.? I made goluash(sp?) with my gluten-free pasta and fresh hamburger. Then I poured on my tomoto juice without even thinking about the glutened spoon I used for stirring the juice. Could I still eat this? Do I have to throw out all my jars of items(over 50 or so jars)? Need some input before I eat this golaush. Thanks a bunch.

Nicki

I went to their website and in the Questions part, there is a question about these containing gluten. The answer they give is no they do not contain gluten. Has anyone tried these? Just wanting to know because my Mom has some she doen't use anymore and was asking me if I could have them. It looks it I can, but I just want to check. Thanks.

Nicki

Thanks for the information. Most of the ones I have are the repair hand creme/lotion and I don't think I better use them. I am going to call and talk to the manager and see if I can exchange some of it for just the body creme. That one(the body creme), I was looking at and it doesn't have oats in it. thanks again.

Nicki

I have a boat load od Bath and Body works lotion that has oat in it. Is this still okay to use? I would hate to give it away. Some I have had for a while so I don't think I could try to exchange it. Any info would be great. Thanks.

Nicki

ebrbetty,

when you say the gas x gel caps are gluten-free. Is that the wal-mart brand or the other brand? Will have to get some phazyme gels just to have around for when gas gets bad. Haven't had too much gas since starting on the gluten-free diet. Thanks for all the info.

Nicki

I have the wal-mart brand of gas aid tablets. I don't have the box and was wondering if anybody knew right off hand if these are gluten-free? What does everybody take for diaheara(?). I can't use imodium(I end up in the ER when I take this) and pepto makes me sick. Any suggestions for this? Is Rolaids the only thing to take for tummy hurts? I think I read somewhere that tums are not gluten-free. Is this true? Still trying to get the hang of this med stuff. Thanks for any info. My Wal-Mart has the most informed pharmacy I have ever seen. I have asked about some other meds I take and they just blew me off! So my pharmacy really doesn't know anything.

Nicki

Thanks for all the replies. I don't know why it went in here. I put this in another area. I will call the dentist tomorrow so they will have about 2 weeks to figure out things for me. Shampoo is okay, I use dove products. I can't wait to get my hair cut and colored.

Nicki

I was recently diagnoised with celiac. I am going to get my hair colored and was wondering about that. Do I have to watch what they use? How about going to the dentist? I have to go there at the end of the month. So many questions. I am learning how to read the ingredients list slowly. I have my safe and forgiven list with me all the time and I am checking everything. Thanks for any information.
