    Thanks everyone, I went to Trader Joes to get some coconut milk. It seems to be working out, no negative reactions yet. I mix it into her smoothies and almond rice milk. Next time I make meat for her I am going to use some lard as well. I am going to look into rice cereals as well. Thinking about putting together a list of gluten, dairy and...

    I just took my daughter (almost 3) off gluten a few weeks ago. She is also off dairy and corn, as I suspected these secondary allergies. Does anyone have any ideas what other things to give her, other than fruits, veggies and meat? She is now a happy eater, and we do not have to spoon feed her anymore. However, I do feel bad about having to say...

    Thanks so much everyone for your input. It does mean a lot to me. I took Anna off dairy two days ago. I am now giving her almond "milk", a pack of apple juice and water. Anna adopted the almond milk right away. She drinks it just like regular milk. That is a lot of progress, since Anna was so much into milk, it almost looked like she was addicted...

    I have a little daughter, her name is Anna and she is 2 and a half years old. She got diagnosed with gluten sensitivity last Monday, and has been off gluten for about 6 days now. The last days have been amazing. Anna stopped bedwetting within the first 24 hours of taking her off gluten. (She had been potty trained for 6 months but for some reason...

    Yes, my daughter Anna got diagnosed with gluten sensitivity on Monday. I am sensitive to gluten too. She is 2 and a half years old and was fully potty trained at 25 months. Anna is wetting her bed for about 10 days now. She does not have a UTI. We got it checked twice within the last 10 days. They also did a negative test for diabetes. ...

    Hi Rachel, Thanks for your reply. When I use baking soda for my teeth I get a white line on the inside of my cheeks. It also starts swelling. A few days later the tip of my tong develops something that looks like a cyst. I had issues with whitening toothpaste before and had to go to the dentist. That was about two years ago. The dentist was shocked...

    Hi Fiddle-Faddle, I am taking Levoxyl. I went to the company website to read about ingredients, side effects and so forth. They were talking about walnuts making it more difficult for the Levoxyl to be absorbed. Here is were you can find it : Open Original Shared Link Check out the Drug- Food Interaction paragraph

    I am off gluten since April. I am most clear in my head if I only eat veggies, fruits, meat, seafood and olive oil. Only naked foods, nothing added to it. Not even salt. I made huge physical improvements when I got off gluten. My brain food mainly went away after cutting out corn and dairy and following the strict diet of veggies, fruits, meat, seafood...

    Hi girls, Sorry for just dropping in. I've been reading up to page 30 and see a lot of you have corn issues. I learned a few things from you all ... Thanks a lot Here are a few questions I have. I would be very happy if you could help me with them. I learned from you that iodized corn has some corn in it. (As well as a lot of the...

    Maybe your mom is taking care of the gluten side of the disease but also has other secondary food allergies? I am allergic to corn, besides being intolerant to gluten. When I eat corn I have problems walking (loss of balance) and suffer from depression. Is there a way for your mom to get a detailed allergy test done? Maybe through enterolab or yorklaboratories...

    I was diagnosed with gluten sensitivity in April and I am off gluten since. A lot of things have improved and keep improving, and I am very thankful for it. The more I think about it the more I am concerned my daughter (2 and a half) might have gluten issues too. Her regular allergy test, which also screened for gluten came back negative. I send out...

    ARCHIVED Tidewater Area (virginia)

    manja posted a topic in Doctors

    I am going to move to the tidewater (virginia) area next month. Does anyone know a good PCP, gastrodoc, and pedetrition? Or any other doctor that might come in handy? Thank you.

    So now, it's back to concentrating on eliminating corn and MSG. I may have to give up my beloved nuts and nut butters.

    Sorry to hear you are not doing so well. Looks like it is a constant up and down. Luckely, lately I feel like things are going more up than down for me. However, that can also change from one day to the next. I am doing a little better on Levoxyl (0.025mg). Since I started only about two weeks ago I do not yet know whether it is a long term thing...

    Instead of buying expensive Calcium supplements, which might cause another allergic reaction, I was wondering whether I could take an egg shell and make some kind of powder from it and consume it. What do you think?

    Hi Ursula, Danke for your advice. I am going to go out and buy some baking soda when my daughter wakes up. Do you delute the baking soda with a lot of water? I could not follow the link for the multivitamins. Could you check that again? Thanks a lot.

    Hi Ursula, Thank you for your response. Now that I am feeling a little bit more in control of things I am wondering what other tests I could get done in the long term. I know about the biopsy, which is going to let me know how bad things are. I might get it done in a few months. (I'll be moving in July and don't feel like dealing with two sets of...

    Hi, I got diagnosed with gluten sensitivity in April using Enterolab and I am gluten free since. Currently I have so many secondary food allergies I wonder do I actually have celiac disease? Does anyone understand the link between gluten and secondary food allergies? I am allergic to dairy, nightshades (bad), caffein, bananas, potatos, and corn (really...

    Does anyone use toothpaste that is gluten, dairy, soy and corn free? Any ideas about what kind of Calcium supplement to take or multivitamin? Holding back on brushing my teeth today, (only using water), so please answer soon.

    ARCHIVED Thyroid

    manja posted a topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    Hi everyone, Have been reading about some people changing the dose of their thyroid medication from one day to the next and back to what it was before. I have Hashimoto disease and was just put on Levoxyl again. I am interested in finding out why you would do that.
  21. manja
    Just found out Monday I need to take Thyroid medication for Hashimoto disease again. I cannot have gluten, corn and lactose. Actually, gluten and corn is the big issue. Does anyone know which Thyroid med. I can take for low Thyroid, without gluten and corn? Feel like my "life depends" on finding one that is going to work. Is there anything in liquid...
  22. manja
    Well, I totally relate to how you are feeling. I have Hashimoto disease. Just found out on Monday that my Thyroid is way to large again and I have to be put on medication to correct the problem. Needless to say I also have all the symptoms off low Thyroid. Dizziness, tiredness, hairloss and so on. I am also allergic to gluten, dairy, corn...

    Hi everyone, I am still new in the "Gluten Free World", and slowly but steady getting used to it. Had a bumpy week where I might have been glutened or my thryroid went nuts. Well, just in time for the weekend I feel much better again. A BIG THANKS to all of you who helped me through this week, by answering my earlier questions and giving me...

    I am very tired and my muscles feel weak as well. Got hit by depression last week and it is not going away. Stopped being on Gluten two months ago. My thryoid level tests came back normal although my thyroid is enlarged again. (Hashimoto) I only have gluten sensitivity, not Celiac Disease. The gluten symtoms went away, such as constipation and bloating...

    ARCHIVED Hypothyroid Again

    manja replied to Sis's topic in Related Issues & Disorders

    Hi Sis, Thanks for your earlier response about whether Levoxyl contains gluten. Just found out from my Doc. that my Thyroid works fine. However, it is enlarged again. (I' ve got Hashimoto.) I cannot find out why I am so tired. Also got hit by a bad case of depression, which I usually do not have. Got off gluten about 2 months ago and did not cheat...
