  1. Oh...I don't know if they have nametags. If so, then yes--and if you see someone wearing a "celiac3270" nametag, it's probably me! Are you sure you won't make it? There are still two days before the conference.
  2. Oh yeah...I'm sorry--that was 10:30 AM my time not your time.
  3. Your post should appear immediately. Additionally, when you post, you should be taken to the post after hitting "post new topic." After that, it will go towards the back of the section. When a moderator sees it and it is moved and/or pinned, it will move to the front of its respective section. If you think a post may have disappeared, consult "today...
  4. Because celiac causes malabsorbtion, the calcium isn't being absorbed--and it's going to the fingernails in those deposits instead.
  5. Yep...I'm not Jewish, but I definitely like Passover . Let's see...everything that says Kosher for Passover is gluten-free, provided that the ingredients do not mention, Matzoh, Matzoh Meal, Matzoh Farfel, or Cake Meal. Additionally, I didn't stock up at all this year , but last year I got a lot of chicken broth (made by "Manischewitz"...it's gluten...
  6. White specks on your fingernails are calcium deposits and are related to celiac. On some symptom list on this site, they are listed. I have them on my fingernails also.

  8. Amanda, the conference is at Columbia Presbyterian up around 165th. It is close, but unfortunately, even the extended deadline ended on March 25th. Perhaps e-mail the person who is organizing the event, since they didn't seem to be filled up at all. Here's the e-mail: Open Original Shared Link...and the link to sign up is here: go to the second one down...
  9. I just tried them yesterday! They were great...just like Pringles!
  10. I found this on another group....an interview with Dr. Green....scroll to near the bottom of the page and click "listen." It's about 16 minutes long. Open Original Shared Link
  11. Hi everyone, You've probably seen the thread on the Celiac Conference at Columbia that Molly started (also in this section--Coping with). It will take place this Saturday and there will be many physicians speaking. Today I went to my GI doctor (Joseph Levy) who is with Columbia Presbyterian and, I learned, is going to be speaking there from I think...
  12. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link These articles aren't anything...new...but I just post them in case there's anything interesting in them for someone. Also, if someone won't believe you about...the celiac disease and osteoporosis link, you can show them 15 articles on it and ask if all the newspapers are lying just kidding....
  13. The list doesn't contain Pepcid and the representative on the phone told you they were testing it. I'd avoid.
  14. I get Living Without, as well. Since it's for many allergies and intolerances, it's not all celiac and the amount of gluten-free stuff ranges from issue to issue. You can always order a single issue, too, to see if you like it.
  15. You're better off with a gluten-free sunscreen, though it's not 100% necessary. The gluten molecule is too large to be absorbed through the skin. If, however, you have sunscreen on your hands and then eat something w/o first washing them, you could get contaminated. So with children, it's probably advisable.
  16. I've read two books since diagnosis--already mentioned in the other post. Danna Korn is writing another one right now...I don't know what it targets.
  17. Yep...the others already mentioned Jello so nothing to add there. I know that Kozy Shack also makes a rice pudding and chocolate pudding that are gluten-free. I used to eat their chocolate pudding before diagnosis, and I know that it and the rice pudding are gluten-free.
  18. I am Catholic myself...and I go to church, not every week, but often enough to be able to say that I do practice Catholism. I don't take Communion. I'm not bashing the faith at all...and I guess we can't really blame the priest who made the remark I quoted. He is simply reinforcing what those in authority are saying--and he has no power to change it...
  19. I can't believe that anyone could actually think that Jesus cared which grain was used. But some priests do. My grandmother on my dad's side is a devout Catholic and she cut out this article for me from some religious newspaper since it had Celiac mentioned in it. It was about the girl whose First Communion was invalidated because she used the rice, rather...
  20. Oh, wow...that's ridiculous!
  21. Another article...lol: Open Original Shared Link Dessa, I get the news alerts from google. You can set them up so that if the word..."celiac" is used anywhere in the article, they will send it to you...I know there are others, but Google works well, so I'm satisfied with it.
  22. Great! This is my favorite recipe for cheesecake and everyone I know likes it a lot...but it's interesting to hear what everyone else thinks. Thanks for posting your results, Kelly.
  23. Here's an article...that issue was raised in......June? But it's recently come to the forefront again: Open Original Shared Link Plantime...it's Catholic doctrine and the Church is unwilling to break from tradition, if it means being more accomodating to celiac Catholics.
  24. More news ...about the girl whose First Communion was...denied because she wanted to sub. rice wafer for wheat: Open Original Shared Link
  25. Welcome ... Toothpaste....Crest, Colgate...most of them, really. Just avoid Sensodyne. Unless your mom gets bad rashes when gluten-containing products touch her skin (dh) she doesn't need to worry about deodorant. Kraft clearly lists gluten so you don't need to call about natural or artificial flavors, modified food starch, starch, etc. Here...
