  1. Here's an article that's interesting, since this topic has to do with diabetes, gender, and celiac: Open Original Shared Link
  2. Yes--rice is fine on a gluten-free diet. She might have a separate allergy--many people here have some other condition or allergy that accompanies celiac. Allergies are unrelated to celiac, but that would be why she has trouble with rice--not celiac disease.
  3. Ibsteenwyk, I think this might be the guide she was referring to--just looked it up on their website. Most recent version is from 2002, though: Open Original Shared Link
  4. Everything by Yoplait is gluten-free--all flavors of Yoplait whips, Yoplait custard style, etc. It's just, if there's any Yoplait yogurt with cookie crumbles in the top cap to sprinkle on, don't do it, because that would contain gluten. If they change something so that it isn't gluten-free, the gluten will be clearly shown on the label, so you know it's...
  5. I haven't used them, but others have and loved them. Also, you might get a positive result using them, even if bloodwork gave you negative results. Again, people who have received positive results and tried the diet have felt so much better--others will likely say the same, but--yes, Enterolab is good--no insurance coverage, though.
  6. I put 9 links under this post: Open Original Shared Link
  7. That's what I meant, Kaiti...thanks
  8. You can do the tax thing in the US, as well. She can deduct just about everything, provided that it amounts to a certain percentage of her income. Basically, you start a table and list the price of everything gluten-free that you buy. Then in the other column you list what it would have cost if you could have bought the other kind. Then you subtract the...
  9. Mrsfish, For your daughter who is allergic to dairy, she could eat the gluten-free nuggets--if she can have egg, then you just dip the meat in the egg, then roll it in Lays Classic Potato Chips crushed by a blender--the potato chips you would use for the recipe are dairy-free, lactose-free, casein-free (see the following lists): Open Original Shared...
  10. For processed gluten-free chicken nuggets--a company, Ians, makes them and they're really terrific. About 12 in a package, but make sure it says gluten-free on the box because they make them gluten-free and non-gluten-free and the boxes look almost identical. My mom made the chicken nuggets wiht potato chips for my family once--everyone liked them-...
  11. Post or General Mills--don't remember who makes them--makes potato buds that are gluten-free....
  12. Well, about McDonalds, they can't guarantee anything, because the employees might cross-contaminate something--I'd ask if their fries, for example, are cooked in a dedicated fryer before ordering them. Their gluten-free list (for the USA) is here: Open Original Shared Link
  13. That's so cool! Thanks for posting it--I sent the link to my mom and I think I can go . It might be very interesting and I'll make sure I take scrupulous notes or save brochures so I can share all the information here.
  14. I put 9-12 months, but if this is for research or something, don't use my number . I just took much longer cause I had another problem which gave me terrible, but celiac-like symptoms. So for all I know, I could have lost my celiac symptoms in two weeks and then my malrotation caused the problem for the remaining months. I know that in reality, it should...
  15. Dr. Green doesn't take children so, since I'm only 14, I see Dr. Joseph Levy. Everyone, it seems, who has ever had him has been extremely pleased--he takes the time to talk to you, confident, reassuring, etc. He's only a pediatric doctor, though....I assume that you meant my normal GI, who specializes in celiac, at Columbia
  16. Columbia Presbyterian -- the same hospital that Dr. Greene and my GI (celiac-specialist) practice at. And thank you....the swelling went down a little bit with the pill--and I've just been relaxing, posting, and reading (right now it's Bringing Down the House -- a NY Times bestseller that I'm really enjoying right now).....no further incident w/ anything
  17. What a song .......builds, kinda like the 12 days of Christmas.
  18. I was back at the hospital a little sooner than expected: about 2:30 (Eastern time). This morning I had some swelling....I'm pretty open about things, but I won't go into a tremendous amount of detail here--just the scrotum becoming very enlarged and they told me to come in. It's some sort of infection with the epidydimus (sp?) ...antibiotics for 10 days...
  19. Ooh...many options! I live in New York City--there are many posts on here about NYC, but I can't find all the ones I'm looking for...so, some links: Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link -- see the key on...
  20. There was an article in the latest Living Without magazine in the "grapevine" section entitled "The Hunt for a Gread Machine". I'll try to summarize the points of this article--I assume that that's okay because I'm listing the source and not copying word for word: Okay, basically, there are two helpful ways to find a good bread machine, she learned. ...
  21. Monday -- Surgery Day -- The doctor told me I was very lucky to have gone 14 years without a serious problem. Any one of the hundreds of times I've been sick, my intestines could have coiled around a vein cutting off the blood supply and essentially killing an organ. I had to sit around in the waiting room all day until about 4:00 in the afternoon (since...
  22. Thank you P.S. What was really cool was that one of the nurses--she added the medications to my drip and stuff on--Wednesday, I think--was celiac herself! Had never heard of celiac.com, checked for celiac sites on the internet, or known that there were gluten-free restaurants in NYC. She asked if I could e-mail later, which I will--and visited the...
  23. I know that this has been such a big topic among celiacs, but I was surprised to see an article in the latest Living Without magazine. If you get it, the article is at the front in the "from the grapevine" section. If you don't have it, I could summarize the person's choices and why she picked the machine that she did--
  24. I know I've read the actual article--but this was all I could find in my e-mails about it--from Jessica's USA Silly-Yak support group. I think this tells you my opinion on oats--I strongly concur with Kaiti: There's no oatmeal that I woudl eat, but there's a "Rice and Shine" cereal made by Arrowhead Mills, which is pretty good--as a replacement of...
  25. Here's my update which I will complete tomorrow and copy to this thread, as well, I guess: Open Original Shared Link
