ARCHIVED Gf Canned Spaghetti, Etc
celiac3270 replied to chawk310's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Oh...Ragu is gluten-free...all I knew about was "Classico", but Classico is really expensive....know of any other gluten-free spaghetti sauces? -celiac3270 -
ARCHIVED Favorite Gf Pasta?
celiac3270 replied to catfish's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
DeBoles is good, but a little more expensive than Tinkyada, which tastes a little better anyway....so my #1 recommendation would be Tinkyada (though you can't go wrong with either of them). -celiac3270 -
ARCHIVED Still Feeling Awful! :(
celiac3270 replied to HappyCat22's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
You'll feel ill for quite a while after going on the gluten-free diet....it doesn't just go away overnight, so yes, it is normal -
ARCHIVED Food Cravings And Cures
celiac3270 replied to travelthomas's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi , Okay...slightly off-topic, but to use the smilies, get to the point where you want the smiley and then click on the one on the side that you want. You won't see smilies appear as yellow things but, for example, the regular smile would appear as a colon and then a right paren. Then, when you submit, they change (like a code). Knowing that a smile... -
ARCHIVED Sunscreen
celiac3270 replied to hapi2bgf's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yep, that's why I would try to avoid it, anyway..... -celiac3270 -
I have slightly high cholesterol....and I'm only 13!!!! And I play lots of sports, love to run, and am constantly active. I'm doing nothing about it, cause it must not have been too bad; my doctor didn't bring it up or tell me to do anything about it.... -celiac3270

ARCHIVED Endoscopy
celiac3270 replied to abby82's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I think they said that they'd give me something to stop my gag reflex.....but I know that I drooled -- the hospital pillow was all wet from my saliva after -- -- yuck. -celiac3270 -
ARCHIVED What To Do?
celiac3270 replied to lyndszai's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
It's your decision.....like your mom said....do what you feel is right... I see what you mean about saying "no".....and obviously, I can see your point about going back on the diet . The symptoms might be worse going back on the diet than they were before...I think I've already said this in another post. As for your best friend, she... -
ARCHIVED Help With Results Pls
celiac3270 replied to a topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Okay...there's some stuff on Celiac.com on interpreting stuff, but I couldn't get through it, so I found another site...........which I also can't get through.... ....they make this stuff hard to understand: Okay, then there was a table I found in the FAQs of this site, which tells you how important each of the tests are for telling you "yes... -
ARCHIVED Osteoperosis and Thyroid Issues
celiac3270 replied to kalo's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
If you do feel strongly that you are a Celiac, and therefore, are on an entirely gluten-free diet, make sure that "Evista" is gluten-free, also....many medicines aren't. -
ARCHIVED Sunscreen
celiac3270 replied to hapi2bgf's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
So for one who doesn't have DH, confirming that a sunscreen is gluten-free is not important? (although I will try, anyway). -
Hi, It is rather difficult. First thing you should do is go to the site index on this board and find the fobidden ingredients list. You're going to be reading a lot of labels. In addition, anything containing natural or artificial flavorings is questionable; those companies need to be called (that means that pretty much everything that doesn't say gluten...

ARCHIVED Gluten-free Make-up?
celiac3270 replied to a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I'm not a girl, so I have no idea.....my Mom has a Celiac friend and therefore, knows that no eyeliners are gluten-free....I think she has a list of gluten-free makeups, but obviously, my mom didn't need to copy it or anything.......so, like I said, I can offer nothing else.......I feel weird, posting in this thread.... -celiac3270 -
ARCHIVED GF Girlfriend
celiac3270 replied to bignate's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Some foods...just a list I always post for newbies...maybe you can get something out of it.... - Store-bought Cookies: try Pamela's Products -- the BEST cookies. The lemon shortbread are decent, but some people find them too strong a lemony taste. However, try the Dark Chocolate Chocolate Chunk Cookies. They are AMAZING!!! Even including regular cookies... -
ARCHIVED Sunscreen
celiac3270 replied to hapi2bgf's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Important question as summer is here: Does a Celiac with out DH need to wear a different sunscreen? If so, why? Thanks for answering a rather simple question..... -celiac3270 -
ARCHIVED Quaker Rice Cakes
celiac3270 replied to angel-jd1's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I know that Quaker Rie Cakes are gluten-free...kosher..I have no idea -
I think that it's kind of sad how unhelpful/unaccomodating people can be....I mean, not only food manufacturers, but it's kind of sad that you can't even bring your own food there when you have an autoimmune system disorder that doesn't allow you to eat any of that stuff ! -celiac3270

ARCHIVED Endoscopy
celiac3270 replied to abby82's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I got put out completely...I could do whichever I wanted, but it's easier, I think, to be put out entirely....I just remember the guy sticking the needle in me to knock me out and then I remember being wheeled to some place where I'd lie until I wake up -- only I was awake as they wheeld me there....well, that's typical celiac3270; getting up early ...... -
Yeah....I've been to Whole Foods...Fairways is a little more convenient, though...for me.....just a walk across to the west side and then down a ways..... -celiac3270

ARCHIVED Planters Nuts
celiac3270 replied to beelzebubble's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Yep...that's what I was told when I called about Crystal Light (also made by Kraft). I didn't know that Planters were made by Kraft, though....cause the only peanuts I had weren't made by them...thanks for clarifying that. -celiac3270 -
ARCHIVED What To Do?
celiac3270 replied to lyndszai's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I know....that's a long time gluten-free to go back and mess it all up ....if it's just a nutritionist that wants you to get the tests done, maybe talk to your doctor and the rest of your family, although in the end, I guess, the decision should be up to you....you're the one who'd have to live like this....I think it's pretty conclusive that you have celiac... -
ARCHIVED Still Sick, What Do I Do?
celiac3270 replied to Thomas's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
...I don't know about that....I mean, celiac disease cuts out a lot, but then, when you cut out basic things like corn, arrowroot....I mean, these are the only substitutions we have for wheat and barley.....it's hard enough to find out if foods are gluten-free, but when you then have to check labels of the gluten-free foods to find things that are wrong with... -
ARCHIVED What To Do?
celiac3270 replied to lyndszai's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Yuck....how long have you been gluten-free, again? What tests have you had done? If you've had a biopsy, then I don't see why you would need a blood test, as well....if you haven't, I guess it's your choice if you want to put up with some pain and know for sure....or stay gluten-free and never know for sure. In addition, when you go back to gluten after... -
ARCHIVED Celiac Vs Celiac Sprue?
celiac3270 replied to catfish's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that Celiac Disease and Celiac Sprue referred to the same thing, but just different names....like celiac disease can be referred to as Gluten Intolerance. Kim is right...if you're getting a biopsy, continue to eat gluten. Otherwise, your test results may be messed up (if you're borderline Celiac, it could change...
