    ARCHIVED Found A Good Dr!

    Hi I finally found a good dr's! Its huron gastro in ann arbor, mi on st. joseph's campus, right behind EMU. Its a whole center for digestive care. I went there for the first time yesterday, and the drs were very nice. The dr I saw talked to me for quite a while (at least an hour i think) and agreed to test me for celiacs (my sister had tested positive for...
  2. I found an awesome gastrologist (in SE Michigan, if anyones curious) because I've been having very bad stomach problems for the past few years. He talked to me for a quite a while, and sent me for a blood test for celiacs (the complete panel? i had been tested before at a regular dr, but he said these can be inaccuate) because my sister had tested for celiacs...
  3. Anyone do the Paleo Diet? Has it helped you healthwise, and have you lost any weight on it? Im thinking about doing it to see if it makes me feel better, and was just wondering your thoughts on it.
  4. I defiantely did NOT mean to imply that simply being a vegetarian caused gluten intollerance..I Whoa my computer just messed up and sent to early...I defiantely dont think being a vegetarian caused celaic/ gluten intollerance. It just seems a lot of people on here are former vegetarians. It probably does have something to do with the relience on "healthy...
  5. I've been reading through these message boards and a lot of people seem to be former vegetarian/vegans or currently are. I was just wondering if there is any kind of link between the two? I would love to be able to have a vegan diet because I feel its the ethical thing...but every time I do I end up extremely sick! Im not still not sure I have celiacs/ gluten...
  6. Anyone know if the frozen Jennie-o turkey burgers are gluten free? The ingredients just list turkey and natural flavoring. I tried looking on their website, and searcing here, but couldnt find anything.
  7. I've gotten really fed up with having to be gluten free too. Just when I start feeling better, I "test" myse;f (purposely eating gluten). Im not officially diagnosed yet, so i always seem to second guess when i start feeling a little better. Most recent time was when I went to tennessee for the weekend, i got stuck at a buffet that was gluten FILLED. I was...
  8. Hey, I started a topic about this in the travel section I think. I just went here in Easter. We stayed in a cabin with a kitchen, which was really nice and something I'd recommend. (I did notice a lot of hotels- some as cheap as $20/nnight advertising a microwave and fridge in-room which would also help.) We found a really good place- Bennet's BBQ- they had...
  9. I agree with paying attention to possible other intollerances, especially to dairy since a lot of people with celiacs seem to have that problem. Do you use a lot of gluten free subsitututes, like bread and muffins and such? A lot of them seem to be pretty high in calories and low in fiber, which can lead to eating more. I struggle with bloating too, and am...
  10. Wow sorry for all of the frustration you are going through. Even though I seem to have a lot of problem with gluten and other things connected to it, I tested negative for it on the blood test too (tho i stopped eating gluten) Once it came back I figured that the doctors know best, so i went back to eating gluten and feeling like crap. I finally came back...
  11. Wow, Im sorry to hear about your situation! Im still very new to all of this, and Im not sure what to suggest but I hope you feel better. Are you sure theres no cross contaimination issues? Does eggs seem to give you problems- I know those are one of the top allergens. Hope someone has some help for you. Have you seen any doctors abotu these problems?
  12. The vacation went good- I love the area. There are a LOT of places to eat at (i mean TONS of restaurants, all down the main street). Im pretty sure they even have outback and olive garden (which have gluten free menus I've heard?). They have a lot of barbeguq type places, which I find easier to eat at. They have a lot of chain stores, but also some smaller...
  13. Personally I would find it interesting. I would think it would really help people who are new to the diet, or people who are starting to get feed up with the diet. I find the different meals that people come up with very interesting.
  14. Anyone know if glee gum is gluten free? I bought it at whole foods or trader joes, i don't see anything suspicious but i figured id just double check... Ooops I dont know how to delete that late post but i just found the website.... Glee Gum is made with all natural ingredients including: pure cane sugar, rice syrup, natural flavorings and colorings...
