    TV Guide for 5/9 describes the House episode as : Foreman returns to work, but his mental acuity isn't what is was; a mother almost drowns her baby in the bathtub. NEW

    they must be avoiding doing it because it makes too much gosh darn sense! Imagine, the medical community being Pro Active....wow it would blow their image of being inept, self important, arrogant windbags. Then they couldn't pontificate on how your symptoms are all in your head or why you have IBS or it's just stress in your life.

    ARCHIVED Subway

    debmidge replied to Wrightk's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants

    As a not celiac I have eaten in Subway and I can't imagine how they could handle gluten-free -- they bake their own breads there, but even if you brought your own gluten-free bread there these obstacles would have to be mounted: 1) They work "assembly" line method, there's constant bread crumbs on their counters as the bread gets passed to next person...

    well I was concerned about artifical flavorings and colorings, the usual.

    Any suggestions?

    My concern over the gluten-free flours is that, with the exception of the bean flours, they are low in fiber. Even the small amount of brown rice flour doesn't compare with the grams of fiber one would get when you used to eat whole wheat bread. when making home made gluten-free bread, I add extra rice bran to give more fiber and a lot of the pre-made...

    He has osteoarthiritis....and no he thinks I am nuts to suggest he get a scan for osteoporosis. He's hard headed & obstinate man. He never did any of the work (carpet fitter, plumber, etc.) so I'm going with the other suggestions

    Well the knees swelled up again, so it appears that the draining did not help. Next step is the removal then. This is still baffling me...

    It's been 2 mos already and the swelling is still pronounced. Dr. said that only way to fix permanently is remove the bursas. So husband had Dr. drain them for now. Anyone see a connection between this and celiac? Considering that my husband isn't working I can't see how (he does a little light housework for us) he got this in the first place....

    My husband now has bursitis in both knees (he doesn't do physical labor) and needs to have them drained. The primary care Dr. mentioned that with celiac, immune disorder, it could be an additional wacky immune response. any thoughts on this? We go to othropaedic Dr. today.

    Lynne, you have every right to feel this way. This disease has stolen from you and you've spent time, emotion and money trying to gain some of your health back to no avail. But I have extreme respect for you and the grace you have in dealing with this. As you will probably remember, celiac has caused my husband to be unable to work, for many years...

    My hubby has had RLS for years and the anti depressants intensify them, so he can't take anti depressants due to this. He takes something occasionnally for the RLS at night (Requipp).

    Bam Once you establish your group, you might want to line up with the Celiac Sprue Assn and become a group under their umbrella. I understand that sometimes hospitals will allow these groups to use their meeting rooms free of charge and if you are a group of the CSA you get free materials and brochures, etc. You can reach them at 877-CSA-4-CSA toll...

    Welcome fairy dust Celia. Your post did cheer me up. We are glad to have you aboard and look forward to your contributions, opinions, venting and more cheering up. I do see a connection between celiac and caelis - pehaps etymologically they are connected. Here's how perhaps: The heavens, celestial heavens could be referred to as a "hole...

    Prior to his celiac diagnosis in 2003 my husband was suicidally depressed. How much of this depression was due to feeling that getting his health back was hopeless and his situation being hopeless vs. the depression that naturally comes chemically with celiac, I do not know. All I do know is that when he went gluten free, from that point on, the depression...

    I want to make a 'Cause Your Special" vanilla cake (mix) and want to know do I mix like a Duncan Hines box mix cake mix? Should I need to worry about overmixing or undermixing it?

    as per my husband Mike: I finally have a name for my health problem. I finally have a solution for my health problem. I am not crazy like the doctor said I was.

    I emailed them on their website avon.com and part of their response which I did not include said to contact them again I need to know if something which is not on this list is gluten-free. I was concerned about the Care Deeply Aloe body lotion and it's gluten-free. That's great for both of us. Rusla, I called them a long time ago and got a rude...

    It's hard to watch someone you love go thru hell. Grandpas are precious. I don't pray for myself any longer but I do for others and I pray that he has a rapid recovery and obtains the healing he needs.

    Despite the fact that my husband is the celiac and I am not this topic is very important to me. After 27 years of marriage he still kisses me.....so I want to make sure that I am wearing gluten free make up and lipsticks.

    It isn't easy to make such a drastic diet change at this time in his life. My husband went 26 years misdiagnosed so I can relate to the longer haul he'll have to regain some health. Has he been responding to the gluten-free diet? Wishing him a rapid healing process. Always feel free to ask questions on this board. We'll help you navigate through...
