  1. Thanks! I'm in Brunswick. That is a little far too. It doesn't seem like there is a whole lot on my side of town.
  2. I keep one that is a day by day "diary" so to speak. I write which meds I took at what time. What I ate. Was it difficult to get up that morning and why....too tired, too much pain, too stiff.... What time did I eat? What did I eat, how did I feel when I was done? Did I get sick, did it affect my sugar( I am hypoglycemic), How did I feel as the...
  3. My family and I do not eat out often, but I don't know of any restaurants in my area that we could even go to where I would be able to eat. We can't afford Outback and the closest one is 45 minutes away. Is there anyway to find a list? Thanks for any and all suggestions/help.
  4. I had/have RLS too. However, it was a secondary condition to my sleep apnea. When I started using my breathing machine (CPAP) at night, it stopped. But it is very aggravating!
  5. I have Lupus and those are classic symptoms of lupus. So are extreme fatigue and joint pain. You can also experience pain in your organs(liver, kidney, lungs). For an excellent resource of information just about lupus, check out the lupus foundation, www.lupus.org another message board I frequent is www.butyoudontlooksick.com Make sure you read...
  6. I have several auto immune diseases and have just recently been diagnosed with Celiac. Now, my rheumy told me that I am more suseptible to other auto immune diseases and when I get things like a cold or the flu, I feel it a lot worse than others because of the the autoimmune diseases. My first dx was Lupus, then RA and Raynaud's, then Severe Vitamin D...
  7. Thanks for the find and the update! Shelli
  8. The other message board is aptly named, butyoudontlooksick.com There is a wonderful story there. It is called the spoon theory. It has helped me explain my illnesses to quite a few people including my own family. The people at the message boards are wonderful and they have illnesses ranging from celiac's to lupus to ms and so on... There is a wealth...
  9. I have several autoimmune diseases. I am being tested and treated for lupus although my test results have been negative. With Lupus you can test falsly on just about anything. I am also being treated for RA(in my hands mostly), Reynauds, Fibro and a severe vitamin D deficiency in addition to the Celiacs which was misdiagnosed as IBS for 3 years. Lupus...
  10. I have RLS, but I do not take any meds for it. It is a result of my sleep apnea. If I do not use my CPAP machine every night, my legs don't stop. When I use my machine, I have no problems. I take enough medicine with my other medical problems, so if I can avoid another one, I do. Sehlli
  11. There is a store near me called Stress Less Gourmet. They cater to all special needs diets. They carry fresh bakery, vitamins, make-up products, etc.... They also have a website if you wanted to check it out and possibly contact them for some ideas. Shelli
  12. Hi, It was to my understanding to avoid any food that had natural flavoring or artificial flavoring because it could contain gluten as a binder. I've been reading some of the posts and some of the foods being mentioned have these in them and people are saying they are ok. I'm confused. Can someone help? Thanks! Shelli
  13. Hi, I have been lurking here for quite a few months. I just wanted to say HI and Thanks! I have been reading all of the posts and it has really helped me find food and other products that will not make me sick. You are a wealth of knowledge here. I don't know that I could offer any input right now, but Thanks again!
