  1. Hmm...not sure why they put the celiac in...is it because she had diarrhea due to celiac? It's a cruel punishment, nonetheless.

    ARCHIVED Allergist Or Gi?

    For general celiac stuff--definitely a GI
  3. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link You need to register to see the latter, I just did and here's the article:
  4. Hi and welcome! Just want to stress that there are definitely long-term effects!!! Whether you get gastrointestinal symptoms from ingesting gluten, long-term ingestion can lead to the development of many other complications, to name a few: cancer, osteoporosis, type 1 diabetes. Long-term ingestion of gluten will greatly increase your likelihood to...
  5. That is.......a lot of pills. First off, there are no pills for celiac disease, so that can't be it. Second, he'd have to have something wrong with basically everything in his body to be taking 70 pills...that's a strange story.
  6. Okay, I'll keep 'em coming! Just didn't want to post it and bump this in front of the other posts in this section if people didn't want to see it...lol. Open Original Shared Link Oh, the stuff from this Baltimore newspaper requires a registration....so the text of an article that you used to be able to get online and now can't: ....
  7. Yea--I, too, doubt it's nationwide...but you could probably visit a lot of pizza chains and see which ones would do something for you......
  8. Sicker? Probably, but perhaps not. But definitely more damaged in the intestines, regardless of whether you feel worse as a result.
  9. I get headaches, too, and make the distinction as a migraine having: - The splitting pain that makes your head feel like it's going to explode. - Sensitivity to light/sound.
  10. I haven't heard of the vitamin connection--maybe--but it is definitely associated with ingestion of gluten....
  11. Oh, I see...that is a great site! The price they show is what you pay--I hate it when you find a reasonable price on something and then learn that the shipping is nearly the price of what you're buying!
  12. I've had this for at least two weeks and I never thought to post it here. This is a particularly humorous article about bread. Especially appropriate for us : Open Original Shared Link
  13. I'm happy to keep doing this if you'd like me to, but just want to know if people want to see the articles or not.....I don't want to keep posting here and bumping it to the front if nobody wants to read it. I don't mind either way...just want to know if this is getting in the way or not.

  15. Do you have any ties to this company besides being a customer? Just saying this in light of some other medication advertising, but being that you've been with us awhile, I wouldn't expect so. Thanks
  16. There is no way I would eat them...tests done showed that the contamination in Quaker Oats is usually somewhere between about 2 and 8 times what we can tolerate...and that's assuming you're otherwise entirely contamination-free, which is unrealistic. The average gluten-free diet contains a few ppm of gluten. Regardless of whether you get symptoms from them...
  17. That would by no means cause celiac disease--breast feeding is preventative.
  18. They can be associated with Celiac, but they also run in my mom's family...I get just as many--really more--now than I did before. Oh well--compared to my symptoms before, I'm not complaining
  19. Yep--good, easy-to-make cookies
  20. I don't like the store-bought, but somewhere in between it and a recipe from scratch is the mix. Arrowhead Mills makes a great choc. chip cookie mix.
  21. Lol...sorry...I saw this at Delphi and assumed it was about celiac disease--didn't read that it was about WEIGHT MANAGEMENT instead of just what label changes would help consumers.....oops. That's what happens when for one article you don't read beyond the first sentence or two. Although, on the other topic, I guess it can be deceiving when companies...
  22. It doesn't apply to all people, but on average, that's the statistic. The US has a lot of ground to make up. 50% of celiacs in Finland, for example, are diagnosed. In the US, we've diagnosed 0.1%
  23. Great! I'm glad it wasn't too terrible an experience for you Mariann--they did the tilting the table thing at the end for me, too
  24. I've heard the same thing about women being more prone to autoimmune disorders. I think it's also that a lot of males don't care that much about their condition, so they'll just deal with it, but not care to try to learn more about it or help others who have it.......or like you said, avoid situations where you share feelings . I'm an exception to that...
  25. Average in the US is 11 years--in the UK, a few months....for me, it was maybe 4-8 years--not sure exactly when celiac developed since I had similar symptoms from someting else.
