  1. Thanks for all your replies, this really gives me better insight into what I am going through. I have been trying to limit my fats, butter etc. Eating lots of fresh salads and fruits. Hopefully all this will give me some help. I also realize that I need to loose some weight, which also adds to the cholesterol. Thanks again.
  2. Hi Everybody, I have not been here in a while. I was wondering if anyone has had a problem with there cholesterol rising since they were diagnosed with Celiac and starting eating different foods. I am wondering if some of the foods, such as bread as an example, are using more fats than we would get from the normal fair, were we still allowed to eat processed...
  3. Does anyone have a problem with processed parmesan cheese. My sister added some to my bread crumbs to try and give them a little flavor and I broke out in my rash. I didn't get too sick, no gas but, my bowels did change. I went a little more often than I would have liked. The only thing that is on the label that we can't figure out is "cellulose".
  4. Hi Haven't been here in a while. Did anyone have problems with UTI when they were diagnosed with Celiac? I was dx'd in April 2006 and started in June with UTI's. All the high dose antibotics didn't work. I have gone to a urologist and he is trying a low dose over a longer period (2 months). Any info would be greatly appreciated.
  5. Sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. I myself have only been diagnoised since March and I know it takes a while for the bloating and gas to go away. Even though I eat gluten free I still get gas. Somestimes I think it is the veggies, which I think is normal gas,so I just cut back. I'm from the east so I don't know what your drink is but, I did...
  6. Hi Everybody, Hope you all are doing good. I have had some good days. Past week have been plagued with gas, can't figure out what I ate. Problem with me when this happens no matter what I eat after the initial episode then everything gives me gas. Has anyone tried that kt for testing your blood. If so, can you tell me how it works and if it is work...
  7. I just ate at PF Changs, I hope that you knew that they have a gluten free menu. It has about 10 items on it, the food was quite. good
  8. Welcome Dionnek. This is just about the best site you can find for information. Everybody is really really helpful. I myself have just been dx'd (March 2006) so I know that feeling of being overwhelmed. I still find myself at times mind boggled by what I read and what I have to do to stay well. Keep on keeping on.
  9. The fact that they found polyps with your last colonoscopy should be reason enough for them to do another one even though your 5 years is not yet up. I would surely question the dr about doing the test now.
  10. I also saw preview and was wondering how they are going to tie celiac disease to this womans problems. Although with all the reading I've done I know some people do get seizures. I do hope this show is good. I for one will be Tivo'g it so I can watch again.
  11. Thanks, I am having a hard time with in between meals. I always seem to be hungry, try to stay away from cookies and cakes and usually only have bread a breakfast. Will try in incorporate more vegetable. I do eat an apple and banana a day. Will also try more fruit. My only problem is that I tend to have to peal my fruit. Everytime I eat the skin I...
  12. What digestive emzynes do you suggest. I was taking phayzme for awhile to help.
  13. Does anyone have a problem with heartburn. Just when I start to feel bettter, boom I get heartburn. Any good remedies. Maybe I'm eating something. I know if I eat peanut butter sometimes it gives me heartburn. Sounds crazy to me. Also, when you started this diet did anyone have a problem with there cholesterol going up. How do you keep the fat content...
  14. Hi Laurel Welcome from another newbie. I found out from one of my new friends on the website about the toast it toaster bags. I went online and found a place called kitchengadgets that sold them. The come 2 to a package $4.99 and can be reused up to 10 times. I will use them for work and when I go to relatives and stay over. I have just went out and...
  15. Thank you very much for your input and advice. I am sure I am jumping the gun as I am very anxious to feel better all the time. I am just afraid that maybe there is something else going on besides the celiac. I will certainly take one day at a time and talk to my doctor about adding more vitamins. I have found a multi-vitamin that is gluten free and calcium...
  16. I was also told that along with Celiac I have mal absportion determined from stool test. I know that I have fat in my stool because it does float. Now my question is does anyone else have this problem and when did you stop seeing the fat in your stool (not floating). I also would like any opinons on how often you have to have a BM when you are feeling...
  17. I was just diagnosed in March of this year so i am still doing trial and error. I hope to be feeling 100% in a couple of months. I expect it will take a while before all foods are out of my system and the little villi can build back up. Good Luck Terrilyn
  18. I am new to this disease so everything for me is still trial and error. If I eat anything with gluten, it is usually a couple of hours before I feel anything. I get the low abdominal pain, bloating and gas. I sometimes feel as if my intestines want to push there way out of me. I don't get diarrhea in the loose runny way but, I do usually have to go to...
  19. I was just diagnosed with Celiac in Febuary 2006. I have had stomach problems all my life and am kind of glad that I have been diagnosed and kind of angry. I am still trying to free my system of any potential gluten or other allergies. I also am slightly lactose intolerant which, my doctor says should disappear as soon as my intestines are healed. I am...
  20. I have an apple just about every day but, I make sure I peel it. I just don't trust what may be on the skin no matter how hard it gets scrubbed. I'm new to this disease so right now I'm trying to be very careful with fruits that have skin. I tend to peel everything, except grapes, I just don't eat them right now. Good Luck
  21. The toaster bag is very interesting. I will definely check that out as I work and am always super careful when I use the toaster. I am finding the bread and bagels okay but, you do have to toast them. I live in New Jersey.
  22. Thanks, it means a great deal to me to hear from others like myself. It has been very hard adjusting. I still feel as if I running in circles. So matter how I try and think I am not eating anything with gluten, boom I am sick. Then I think back and say okay, I did this and there is the culprit. Thanks again.
  23. Thanks for the info, I will certainly get that book I surely need it. How about outside grills, any problems with them. Terrilyn
  24. I have just been diagnosed with Celiac and I am looking for some input from other people who have had this disease for a while. I am still struggling with diets and trying to find out what to eat/not eat. What I should avoid in the home as far as cross contamination i.e. toasters, grills, pots,pans. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
