    I know what you mean about Dr's, my Univ. dr. was to have me back last month but have not heard yet. Maybe he is waiting till my 6 mo. x up from time I saw him in May. has not done as much testing as i thought he would. It is a long way up there. Still having more problems than think I should. All think that I think.. Heard on noon news that Ernesto...

    Carla does candida make you stiff and sore when it rains/ sorry you are not feeling good. A long time ago I had cnadida and took Nystatin for a LONG time, was so long ago not really sure about those problems. do know it was my first REALLY bad health experience. Not sure Dr's i know now would knpw about that problem, do you have to watch sweets? Raing here...

    Celia, does your Mom not live in Florida? The washing sounds like what my Mom would say, " change underwear, never know when you might be in accident". I like Susan's idea about a gaint prayer chain to turn the storm away, just might work!! Been meaning to tell you Celia that I think you have up a really good picture, did you have a rough time last year...

    Hello all; I am new here, just found this thread...very interesting!! Some may think I do not need your help but am sure some have been in same boat at sometime. I have been dx'd about 6 months and trying to be gluten free. Just before dx (gluten free) and awhile after I had so much 'D' I lost nearly 30 pounds, last few months I have been gaining some of...

    Ditto to 'good trip for Armetta and Lynne'!! I am sure they will have a good trip, always good to go on vacation somewhere!! Hope you are doing better today Susan, if not just make the best of it and don't beat yourself up too much for not being the way you want to be. It will come. Not expecting much from myself today with an unusually DIZZY head...

    That sounds like a good idea to try the gluten free foods to see if that helps your ds. sometimes the Dr's just don't get the reason for problems, especially if they have not had other celiac patients. I know it must be hard to see your child suffering and not know how to help. It is bad enough when it is yourself because grown ups cam be in control to a...

    I totally admire families who home school their children, takes a lot of discipline, love and the teacher (usually mother) has to give up most outside of home life. Our minister home schools his 12 yr. old son, his wife works out of the home so he does most of it. A family near us home school their dd, she is their miracle child, blended family. They had...

    Yes, Susan I am rooting for you too. Having that company was really good for you but now you may be having the downside of those good times, sorry. But sometimes it works that way for us. Just hang in there, better days ahead. I always like Psalms, most of them have some happy times. Will be thinking of you. Andrea, that little boy just looks angelic...

    My hubby would also say 'Pepsi", he is not gluten free. I am gluten free and am glad I can eat dark chocolate and corn chips, bake gluten free goodies once in a while. Yeah!! evie

    Thank you Jessica for your URL's, I followed though to thyroid and it was very interesting. My thyroid has needed supplementation for a long time. Over the years a larger amount annually or more so, I suppose it must be slowing down. My mothers quit entirley when she was in her late 60's and her neck swelled as big as her head. we knew she had been so cold...

    Yes, you are right about that too. Like the crops that have been genetically changed, they are apt to cause problems sooner or later. Seems like I do not hear much about them anymore, which may be good, hopefully. A few yeas ago the food pyramid was changed again soon after 1 change because the grain people did not like us being advised to cut out some grains...

    Hey Babe; Welcome, welcome. Stick with us and you will learn a lot here, we have the experts!! We have so many people who know more than the Dr's and all the "experts". haha when you know you have celiac and gluten gives you problems the meat, veggies, fruits and occasional alternate grains and flours taste pretty good. you just learn to eat diferently and...

    Lisa; Here are the instructions from the oldest poster around! Get a large glass of water and add 1tsp. of baking soda, stir and drink down. Soon you will burp!! this is from my Mom many years ago. I had to take this many times because I had lots of tummy problems (unknown celiac probably), it works. Glad to hear you gals having fun out of a burping...

    Lister; Sorry you are having a rough time tonight. Sounds to me like you may be having gastritis which is inflammation of the stomach lining. with medication and eating bland foods it will clear up in a few weeks. the gurgling could be from acid in you stomach or intestines. Am sure the Dr. knew about Prilosec or he would not have told you to take it. I...

    My, My...those two URL's are really rich/ information..not only of seizures but also the connection between celiacs and zonulin. Dr Fazano & others have been studying how zonulin causes gluten and small food particles to get through the intestine walls in to the blood stream thus creating food intolernces!! I hope they can work fast, they may come up...

    Ellen, sorry you are having these problems but many of people/ celiac do go thru dizziness and heart racing. I did when I had been on gluten free foods about 6 weeks. but never when I was @ dr. office. After a few more weeks it went away, mine only came when i was lying down or naybe I just did not notice it otherwise. Are you definitely not allergic...

    Katie; I am taking Dapsone too @12.5 mg per day, was on 25mg for several years. Had sore buccosa of the mouth and was diagnosed 'citricidal pemphigoid' of the mouth several years before celiac dx. Apparently this was a warning of celiac at that time but no one put the 2 problems together. Dermatologist told me I might be better if I got my food allergies...

    I had been on the gluten free diet for several weeks but was not getting better when my GI set me up for this test where I stood in front of a big screen and I could see water, later food going threw and fast, this was from a computer screen. There was something in the water & food that showed up, this was called a nuclear test. the technician said going...

    You gals are all so GOOD lookin, you would never know you had gluten problems. Maybe it is only while we are the sickest that we look so bum. question..is zonulin a med in the making? I thought it was a factor along/ gluten..I need to look back in things I saved where dd sent me something on it several months ago. And you are all so Young!! Be glad you...
